Analyze the basis for the trends in consumption patterns, as discussed in the article you selected.
- Consider the utility derived from a product or service mentioned in the article.
- Describe what has occurred to change the demand for the product or service and its market and equilibrium prices. Assume that supply remains the same.
- Describe what has occurred to change the supply of the product or service and its market and equilibrium prices. Assume that demand remains the same.
- In your opinion, is demand for this product or service price elastic or inelastic? What does this imply about how consumers respond to changes in the price of this product or service? Support your determination of the price elasticity of demand with a reference.

Market or Branding Plan – Lately you have been feeling pretty good about our progress!
$10.00Lately you have been feeling pretty good about our progress! However, you were out at the mall this weekend and overheard many members in the community discuss their displeasure with our clinic! You began to think back on the past few weeks…the chaos that you encountered that first day.
You stepped back and started to evaluate the facility from the ground up. You thought, “what can be done to change our image?”. “What can I do to make a difference in my employment here?” “What has happened to get us to this point?” So many questions running through your mind!!! You came to me with those concerns this morning, and I have tasked you with providing a two page bullet listing of the things we must consider in order to change our image.
I asked you to consider, at a minimum, the mission, vision and values portion of our strategic plan which you can access below. Do not restate the issue in this submission.

Supply and Demand Simulation
$12.50Supply and Demand Simulation
Complete the Supply and Demand Simulation located on the student website.
Write 700 – 1,050-word paper of no more than summarizing the content. Address the following:
- · Identify two microeconomics and two macroeconomics principles or concepts from the simulation. Explain why you have categorized these principles or concepts as macroeconomic or microeconomic.
- · Identify at least one shift of the supply curve and one shift of the demand curve in the simulation. What causes the shifts?
- · For each shift, analyze how it would affect the equilibrium price, quantity, and decision making.
- · How may you apply what you learned about supply and demand from the simulation to your workplace or your understanding of a real-world product with which you are familiar?
- · How do the concepts of microeconomics help you understand the factors that affect shifts in supply and demand on the equilibrium price and quantity?
- · How do the concepts of macroeconomics help you understand the factors that affect shifts in supply and demand on the equilibrium price and quantity?

Assignment: Risk Factor Analysis & Conceptual Frameworks
$20.00Barriers to Condom Usage in Urban and Rural South African Adolescents: An Assessment to Combat Sexually Transmitted Infections
Assignment: Risk Factor Analysis & Conceptual Frameworks
· At each level of the Socio-Ecological Framework, provide a description of the variables/factors that influence the risk behavior of interest (please see the example).
· Design a conceptual framework that illustrates the linkages and write a narrative (300 words) at each level
– Follow APA style in writingBased on information :
- Health Problem
- Lung Cancer
- Behavioral Risk Factor (BRF)
- Smoking (Tobacco use)
- Target Audience
- Young Women in the Western Region of Turkey
Scope of activities
- Conduct a thorough literature review to identify the specific variables or contributing risk/protective factors that influence the risk behavior at each level of the SEM (individual, interpersonal, community and societal level; Identify and highlight key theoretical constructs (attitude, belief, self-efficacy, etc.)
- Create a conceptual diagram reflecting the factors that influence the risk behavior.
- Write a narrative up to 300 words that clarifies the linkages included in the conceptual framework. Identify those variables/constructs that would be most suitable as targets for an intervention and justify your selection.
- Literature review should include a minimum of 3 references per level of SEM
Process/Delegating Work: Use Google Docs to work on one document online
- Each student is responsible for the analysis and development of the conceptual framework of a specific level of the SEM. Selection of the level will be a group decision (for example, student A will be responsible for Individual level; student B will be responsible for Interpersonal level; student C, Community level; student D, Societal and student E, Multi-level) NOTE: INTERPERSONAL, COMMUNITY or MULTI-LEVEL CAN HAVE MORE THAN ONE STUDENT ASSIGNED. These are sometimes the most difficult tasks. Always assign one person to proofread!
- The diagram should depict the links and relationships that variable/constructs/factors may have on each other. Use shapes, boxes, arrows (to indicate relationship and direction) and lines to pull together your diagram. The diagram should fit on one page. (Note that variables/constructs/factors are used interchangeably in this course.)
- Make sure you specify the direction of the influence of the variables. For example, don’t just say “knowledge”, but “lack of knowledge”, which provides a more accurate picture of the problem at hand.
- A list of example of variables at the four levels is provided on page 2.
- Finish with a Multilevel framework: This framework will synthesize and combine the variables/ linkages that were found at the individual, interpersonal, community and societal levels. Since this diagram or framework will guide the development of your intervention and your education/communication message, it is important that you include the most prominent variables that influence the risk behavior.
Write a 500 word summary/narrative that explains the linkages within and across the levels of the multilevel conceptual framework highlighting the most salient factors. Document your sources.
- To organize and present your findings, you MUST follow the format provided here.
- Submit the assignment in one single document, with a cover page, a title that pertinently reflects your project (must specify the risk behavior, target audience and geographic area), and student names.
- See the syllabus for writing requirements and source citations
PLEASE FOLLOW THE FOLLOWING ASSIGNMENT FORMAT
- Health Problem you are addressing
- Behavioral Risk Factor (BRF)
- Target Audience
- Using the key BRF as your point of reference (because this is the health behavior you want to change in your audience)
- Depending on your risk behavior, some of the factors listed below may not be relevant or may overlap across levels. Use your good judgment to present them.
- Individual Level Factors:
- Such as knowledge, skills, attitude, beliefs, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, perceived behavioral control, self efficacy, etc.
- Age, gender, race, ethnic background, education, geographic location, genetic, etc.
Note: Remember that they are risk factors but also protective factors. Also you need to precise the direction of the influence (decrease or increase).
- Interpersonal Level Factors
- Parents, peers, mentors
- Family or peer norms/pressure
- Social network, social groups
- Virtual networks
- Community Level Factors
- Neighborhood, living conditions
- Local organization policies
- Physical structures such as parks, green space, lightening, etc.
- Social structures such as norms, values, social capital
- Access to care
- Societal Level Factors
- Government and state legislations that address the risk behavior
- Social policies (health insurance, transportation)
- Institutions (environment where these policies take place such as work environment, school environment, housing etc.)
- Social marketing
- Multilevel Framework
The following pages provide an example of factors and how to describe them. Please follow the presentation format. Separate each level using “page break”.

3. Create ONE leadership development goal that is in the SMART goal format. You practiced this in
the Week 3 Discussion, and received valuable feedback from your instructor and peers. Please
consider this as you work on this assignment.
S – Specific (Who is involved in the goal, what is the goal, where will it take place?)
M – Measurable (How are you going to achieve the goal?) Be specific with measureable
outcomes.
