I need support with this Graphs question so I can learn better.

5 simple questions, heres an example: A competitive firm has a marginal cost of producing output q given by MC(q) = 3 + 2q. The market price of the product is $9. a. What level of output will the firm produce? b. What is the firm’s producer surplus? c. The average variable cost of the firm is AV C(q) = 3+q Suppose that the firm’s fixed costs are known to be $3. Will the firm be earning a positive, negative, or zero profit in the short run?

Task

Set out Crisp’s arguments concerning autonomous desire and rational choice which purport to show that repetitive advertising and puffery* are both kinds of advertising which subvert autonomy. Identify any important differences between the cases and explain how they affect his conclusions.

* Don’t get confused: Crisp uses this term in an extremely non-standard way.

Explanation

At the beginning of his paper, Crisp says that he will show “all forms of a certain common type of advertising are morally wrong…[because] they override the autonomy of consumers.” He identifies 3 varieties of this type of advertising: subliminal suggestion, puffery, and repetition (end of last full paragraph on p.413). However, that’s the last we hear of repetition in the paper.

Sometimes this is fine. Suppose I’m arguing that smurfs are awesome. There are a lot of smurfs. It would be tedious to go through them one-by-one (Handy is awesome because…. Papa Smurf is awesome because….). The better thing to do is to pick a representative smurf, show why that smurf is awesome, and then argue that those reasons generalize to other smurfs.

But now the game depends on whether the smurf I’ve chosen is in fact representative. It might be that the reasons Smurfette is awesome (e.g., her impeccable choice in footwear) don’t generalize. Thus the danger of this strategy is that it’s an easy way to mislead your audience (or yourself!). The argument might only work for the one example and not translate to the others.

Analogously, Crisp implicitly asserts that the reasons puffery is problematic also apply to repetitive advertising. Thus what I’m asking you to do is figure out whether his arguments about puffery really do apply to repetitive advertising.

That means you need to, at the very least, (1) explain why he thinks puffery undermines autonomy; and (2) explore whether the same reasoning shows the same thing about repetitive advertising.

You can approach this serially —do (1), then do (2). Or you can approach this in parallel —do (1) and (2) for the argument about autonomy, then do (1) and (2) for the argument about rational choice. Both approaches can be fine. Personally, I prefer the serial approach; the parallel approach makes it easy to get mixed up about what I’m supposed to be discussing. But this is personal preference. Do what works for you.

Other notes

I want you to focus on the arguments concerning autonomous desires and rational choice (pp. 414-15). However, you will want to read the rest of the paper, since some of the things he says later on make it easier to understand his thinking (e.g., the paragraph starting “A more convincing account…” p.416)

As always, the standard for completeness is that someone who hasn’t taken the class could read and understand your answer. In this case, since ‘autonomy’ is a technical term, you can’t assume the reader knows what you’re talking about. Make sure you give a brief explanation of what autonomy is and why we care about it.

To answer the question in this assignment, you will need to synthesize in your own words material covered in the lectures and do some independent thought which goes beyond the material in the lectures. You will not be able to successfully complete the assignment without reading / watching the course materials (probably several times as you work on this).

You will receive a 1 point amount of credit for completing this assignment. The remaining 6 points will be based on how well you answer the question.

There is no official minimum page length / word count. However, I expect the vast majority of you will need about 1000 words to fully answer the question.Revise Existing paper based on feedbaxk

I’m working on a Psychology question and need guidance to help me study.

After reading the below background information about Jonas, please take 3 of the following concepts that were discussed in Chapter 4 and in the lectures and discuss how a therapist might use them when working specifically with Jonas providing examples of what Jonas might say or how his background might be discussed in a therapy session to highlight the concepts you chose.

The concepts to use are:
Blank screen approach Transference Countertransference Defense mechanisms Maintaining the framework Free association Identifying developmental arrest Dream Analysis Interpreting resistance What goals were accomplished that would indicate termination was appropriate
An example of what is required for this assignment from a different case regarding the concept of identifying developmental arrest is:

When trying to identify the source of Fred’s need to control and some of his anger, during one session Fred begins to free associate about his childhood and the difficulties he had during toilet training. He described how his mother would try and force him to go to the bathroom every morning to poop even when he did not have to. He described just sitting there in the bathroom and even being late for his preschool program because he would not be allowed to leave until he had gone to the bathroom. He laughed and said it was a battle between his mom and him at times and that on some occasions even if he did have to go, he would sit there and hold it, just so he could be late for preschool to show his mother that her rule was ridiculous. From this information, a therapist could hypothesize that there was a possible arrest in the anal stage of development for Fred and it might be this arrest that underlies Fred’s issues around the need to control, the way he tried to control toilet usage when toilet training.

The Case of Jonas

Jonas is a 33-year-old Caucasian, gay male who was born in the back of a station wagon and became a ward of the state within 6 months of his birth. Jonas was in and out of foster care and group homes until he received a permanent foster placement at the age of 10. The family that took Jonas in was an affluent two-career family with one daughter, age 7. Jonas described the home as immaculate, strict, and in his opinion, “a bit neurotic.” Corporal punishment was used in the home with great frequency, and Jonas described his foster father as cold, brutal, and forbidding. Jonas described his relationship with his foster mother as less problematic, but he stated that he believed he could “never please her.” Jonas’s younger sister was described as “simply perfect.”

At age 12, Jonas was sent to a military school because of his behaviors at home and at school. He described the military school setting as one he enjoyed, overall. The structure and the clearly defined expectations brought him “a sense of comfort.” However, Jonas described an experience of sexual abuse that was perpetrated upon him by one of his military school instructors. This experience, he believed, had left an indelible mark on him.

Jonas came to counseling due to a series of unstable relationships with men, in combination with an inability to maintain employment. Jonas had been in a serious relationship with a man for 2 years that he described as incredibly passionate. In fact, Jonas described this man as the love of his life. When Jonas’s partner began to lose interest in him and subsequently show interest in other men, Jonas became more and more agitated and angry. His attempts at maintaining the relationship became more desperate and volatile. When Jonas’s partner decided to end the relationship, Jonas exploded with anger and a physical altercation ensued. After assaulting his partner, Jonas left the apartment and vandalized his partner’s sports car by scratching curse words into it with his keys. The police were called, and Jonas was arrested. As part of his sentence, Jonas was required to seek counseling.

During the counseling intake assessment, it was revealed that Jonas had a pattern of unstable relationships that carried over to the work environment. After being fired from a position, Jonas broke into his previous place of employment, erased files from computers, and vandalized property in the office. After both the relationship break-up and being fired, Jonas showed significant suicidal ideation.Hello there, I need some help with this short English 102 (Rhetoric and Composition) assignment. The one and only requirement is to have the book: David and Goliath by M. Gladwell.: nursing assignment help
I’m studying for my English class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

Based on Chapter 6 of the book David and Goliath by Malcolm Gladwell:

In chapter 6 of David and Goliath, Gladwell shows us how Davids can sometimes outsmart Goliaths with some good old fashioned trickery. He tells us about the trickster hero in folktales, particularly in those of American slaves, and suggests that the outcomes of the Civil Rights movement were inspired by and parallel to the outcomes of many of those stories. Dr. King and his followers, Gladwell explains, begged to not be thrown into the briar patch — but of course the briar patch is exactly where they wanted to be.

A big concern about the events in Birmingham, though, is that Wyatt Walker used children as a key part of the protest and turned them into likely police targets. Walker and King understood how this would look to the rest of the world once Connor and his police started pushing back: it would look like police attacking and arresting children. To the rest of the world, the white Birmingham police force would appear to be unfair and unmerciful, and as a result, more people would soon be on Dr. King’s side of the movement.

As Gladwell asks on page 186, “Does Wyatt Walker’s behavior make you uncomfortable?” What happened in Birmingham is considered a major turning point in the Civil Rights movement, but do the ends justify the means? Is it right to use children on the front lines for your cause, even if your cause is noble and just? Was it right for Walker to take on the role of the trickster hero if it meant involving children and placing them in harm’s way?

Obviously, there is no clear answer here, but I would like you to argue your position on this issue using support from Gladwell’s book and anything you already know about the American Civil Rights movement., Gladwell shows us how Davids can sometimes outsmart Goliaths with some good old fashioned trickery.
