Prior to beginning work on this assignment, review Chapters 8 and 9 in your textbook.
In this assignment, you will compare projective and objective methods of personality assessment. Research a minimum of three peer-reviewed articles in the Ashford University Library that were published within the last 15 years on these techniques. In your paper, you will provide an evaluation of these techniques organized according to the outline provided below. Use information from your researched peer-reviewed articles and required sources to support your work in each section. 
Section 1: Objective Personality Assesment

Define the term objective in objective methods of personality assessment. 
Summarize the features of objective methods of personality assessment, and provide at least three examples of these types of measures. 
Explain the assumptions on which objective methods are based, and provide an analysis of empirical research testing the validity of the assumptions you identified. 
Appraise the research exploring the technical adequacy (i.e., reliability and validity) of objective tests. 
Describe the impact of social and culture variability on the administration and interpretation of objective tests. 

Section 2: Projective Personality Assesment

Define the term projective in projective methods of personality assessment. 
Summarize the features of projective methods of personality assessment, and provide at least three examples of these types of measures. 
Explain the assumptions on which projective methods are based, and provide an analysis of empirical research testing the validity of the assumptions you identified. 
Appraise the research exploring the technical adequacy (i.e., reliability and validity) of projective tests. 
Describe the impact of social and culture variability on the administration and interpretation of projective tests. 

Section 3: Synthesis, Conclusions, and Recommendations

Write a brief one-paragraph scenario for a fictitious client. Include the following information: presenting concerns (reason for referral), age, gender, ethnicity, language(s), and any other significant information (e.g., military status, health issues, marital status, sexual orientation, etc.). 
Debate the arguments supporting and opposing the use of projective and objective personality assessments with your identified client.
Select a minimum of one objective and one projective measure to use with your client. Compare the use of the selected projective and objective personality measures with your identified client. 
Analyze the advantages and limitations of each assessment measure you selected.
Compose recommendations to improve the validity of personality assessment.

Part I The purpose of Part I is to perform preliminary analytical procedures as part of the audit planning process. You have been asked to focus your attention on two purposes of analytical procedures: obtaining an understanding about the clients business and indicating where there is an increased likelihood of misstatements. Required Refer to the financial statement data in Figure 8-9 for the current year and prior two years. Analyze the year-to-year change in account balance for at least five financial statement line items. Document the trend analysis in a format similar to the following: Account Balance % Change 20152016 % Change 20142015 Net sales Calculate at least Integrated Case Application Pinnacle Manufacturing: Part II 9-40 (Objectives 9-6, 9-7) In Part I of the case, you performed preliminary analytical procedures for Pinnacle. The purpose of Part II is to identify factors influencing risks and the relationship of risks to audit evidence. Figure 9-7 Stanton Enterprises Evidence-Planning Worksheet to Decide Tests of Details of Balances for Accounts Receivable During the planning phase of the audit, you meet with Pinnacles management team and perform other planning activities.
You encounter the following situations that you believe may be relevant to the audit: You also observe that new computerized manufacturing equipment has been installed at Solar-Electro. The machines have been stamped with the words, Product of Welburn Manufacturing, Detroit, Michigan. During discussions with the Pinnacle controller, you learn that Pinnacle employees did a significant amount of the construction work for a building addition because of employee idle time and to save costs. The controller stated that the work was carefully coordinated with the construction company responsible for the addition. During a meeting with the facilities director, you learn that the board of directors has decided to raise a significant amount of debt to finance the construction of a new manufacturing plant for the Solar-Electro division. The company also plans to make a considerable investment in modifications to the property on which the plant will be built. While standing in line at a vending machine, you see a Pinnacle vice president wearing a golf shirt with the words Todd-Machinery. You are familiar with the company and noticed some of its repairmen working in the plant earlier.
You tell the man you like the shirt and he responds by saying, Thank you. My wife and I own the company, but we hire people to manage it. A member of your CPA firm, who is currently on-site in Detroit at the Welburn division, calls you to see how everything is going while you are visiting Solar-Electro in Texas. During your conversation, he asks if you know anything about the recent intercompany loan from Welburn to Solar-Electro. Required Review Part I of the case and the situations in Part II and identify information that affects your assessment of acceptable audit risk. Note that only some of the situations in Part II will relate to acceptable audit risk. Classify the information based on the three factors that affect acceptable audit risk. External users reliance on financial statements Likelihood of financial difficulties Management integrity Assess acceptable audit risk as high, medium, or low considering the items you identified in requirement a. (A risky client will be assessed as a low acceptable audit risk.) Justify your response. Identify inherent risks for the audit of Pinnacle using the information from Parts I and II. For each inherent risk, identify the account or accounts and the relevant audit objectives that may be affected.

Write a two-page long, double-spaced with 12 sized Times New Roman font using data from the BEA-Bureau of Economic Analysis- that supports your claim of real and nominal GDP during the time period of 1973-2019. Write a two-page long reflection on real GDP for the period stated above and explain the reasons behind those fluctuations. Also, discuss the relationship between recessions and unemployment in your analysis and the trend of real GDP during (up-down movements) during recessions. Also explain what type of unemployment is most severe during recessions and the impact it has on real GDP. Be clear as to what nominal GDP measures vs what real GDP measures. Use the BEA as one of your 3 data sources listed in the third page or bibliography. You may use MLA style for the bibliography. Remember to document your sources using in-text citations or footnotes if you prefer.

 

Modern medical and public health education were defined by two early 20th Century landmark documents: the Flexner Report and the Welch-Rose Report. These created two parallel and sometimes divergent systems. Review this 2008 NPR interview (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=93666259) about the Flexner Report [available in Course Content] and Pages 49-55 of the Welch-Rose Report [in Course Content].
Based on these two sources and your own research, describe the current relationship between public health and the medical care system. How do they differ? Or do they? Are there gaps between the two?
Submit your critical analysis in a 3-5 page paper (not including your title page and references)
