In this essay, demonstrate your ability to organize data into meaningful sets, calculate basic descriptive statistics, interpret the results, and evaluate the effects of outliers and changes in the variables.  You may use Excel, one of the many free online descriptive statistics calculators, or calculate the values by hand and/or with a calculator. 

Next, separate the data into two groups of 10; one group will be the lower reaction times, and the second group will be the higher reaction times.  Then, address the following points in your essay response:Calculate the sum, mean, mode, median, standard deviation, range, skew, and kurtosis for each group.How do the two groups differ?  Are there any outliers in either data group?What effect does an outlier have on a sample?

Lastly, double each sample by repeating the same 10 data points in each group.  You will have a total of 20 data points for each group. After completing this, address the following in your essay response:Calculate the following for the new data groups: sum, mean, mode, median, standard deviation, range, skew, and kurtosis.Did any of the values change?How does sample size affect those values?

Choose either Option A or Option B . Formulate an initial post in which you address the points noted in the prompt for your chosen option.

Option A: Race and Identity

Historian Robin Kelley stated, “Race was never just a matter of how you look, it’s about how people assign meaning to how you look” (Herbes-Sommers, 2003). Considering what you learned from the Social Implications of Race video clip (https://fod.infobase.com/OnDemandEmbed.aspx?token=49734&aid=18596&loid=158992&plt=FOD&w=400&h=340) , Chapter 3 in your textbook, and your own experiences, answer the following questions: What do you think is meant by the term racial smog? How do racial categories shape our identities and social status?

Option B: Language, Status, and Identity

Anthropologists believe that language sends messages about who we are, where we come from, and with whom we associate. Based on the readings, explain how language can determine status. Using section 4.8 of the textbook, provide specific examples that illustrate and support your point of view.

Your initial post should be at least 350 words in length.

When a natural disaster occurs, the impact can be far reaching. Unlike other types of crises or traumas, natural disasters often affect survivors and the environments in which they live. In such cases, crisis workers may be asked to help survivors find loved ones, apply for federal aid, or acquire temporary housing.

In this Discussion, you will analyze the ecological impact of a natural disaster that has occurred in or near your community or one that you learned about from the media. Then, you will describe crisis intervention strategies and skills that you might have used to respond to survivors.

To prepare for this Discussion:Think about how natural disasters might impact exosystems, mesosystems, and macrosystems.Consider the impact of natural disasters at the local, state, and national levels.Think about how the tornado affected the Benefield family (from the Case Study in Chapter 17 of the course text) and their community. Then, consider the crisis intervention strategies and/or skills employed by crisis workers to respond to individual, family, and community needs.Identify a natural disaster that occurred in or close to your community or one that you learned about from the media. (Note: You should not use Hurricane Katrina as an example.) Reflect on how the exosystem, mesosystem, and macrosystem were impacted by the disaster.Identify at least one crisis intervention strategy and/or skill you might have used to respond to the disaster you identified. Reflect on how this intervention strategy might address the ecological impact of the disaster.

If you feel that you need help with any of the main topics for this week, please revisit the Practice Activities located in the Weekly Overview.AssignmentResourcesChoose an argument that you found online (you may utilize an argument from a video posted online, a blog, a news source, a political website, or any other resource that will allow you to satisfactorily meet the requirements of the assignment). You may also select from this week’s relevant recommended resources.

Once you have selected your source, you will then evaluate the argument being presented in the source in an essay of 400 words. In your evaluation:
Identify the issue, the premises, and conclusions of the argument.Determine whether the argument is sound or unsound (deductive), valid or invalid (deductive), or strong or weak (inductive).Explain why you have chosen to label it as sound or unsound, valid or invalid, and/or strong or weak.
Use the “Steps for evaluating an argument ” template for assistance with structuring your evaluation; however, you should construct and submit your evaluation in an essay format. Do not merely turn in a bulleted outline. 

The essay must be 400 words in length, excluding title and reference pages, and formatted according to APA style. For information regarding APA formatting, including samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center, located within the Learning Resources tab on the left navigation toolbar in your online course.
