Social determinants of health include biological, environmental, social, and economic factors that influence the access and maintenance of health (Green, 2018). For example, those living in low socioeconomic areas may not have the resources to obtain fresh food and will oftentimes rely on fast food chains. According to a study posted by the American Journal of Preventive Medicine (2004), low-income areas had 2.5 times more fast-food chains than those living in more affluent areas. As a result of this many minorities living in low-income areas have a great risk of obesity and comorbidities such as type II diabetes and hypertension. While the study done by the American Journal of Preventive Medicine was more than five years ago the results of their study continue to be prevalent as the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (2018) states children and adolescents are more likely to be obese than their higher-income counterparts. This is an example of how social determinants of health contribute to the development of disease. The child who has grown up with a poor diet is less likely to change their diet habits as adults resulting in fatal health conditions.

Social determinants also contribute to the spread of communicable diseases due to crowding, sanitization, uncontaminated water, and access to health care (Green,2018). The infectious disease process of communicable diseases is represented by the chain model also known as the chain of infection. The chain of infection begins with the infectious organism and describes how the organism reproduces and spreads through contact, droplets, or surfaces. As the nurse taking care of an individual with a communicable disease the simplest and most effective form of breaking the chain is by proper handwashing. The nurse can also contribute to the stop of the chain by wiping down surfaces with the proper cleaning agents, placing the appropriate PPE outside of the patient’s room, and clustering care to avoid excessive time inside of the patient’s room. All of these interventions contribute to the stop of the transmission phase of the chain model.

6-1 Discussion: Social Sciences in the Real World (50 Points)

Each discussion is meant to be a collaborative space for conversation about the course concepts and for learning from your peers’ diverse perspectives. To ensure an interesting discussion, you are encouraged to think creatively about your initial posts and build upon the points made by your peers. It is also important to review the module resources and read the prompts in their entirety before participating in the discussion.

Discussing challenges that face our world often means investigating opinions and ideas different from your own. Remember to remain thoughtful and respectful towards your peers and instructor in your discussion post and replies.

Create one initial post and follow up with at least two response posts.

For your initial post, address the following:

  1. Think about a challenge, opportunity, event, or issue that affects your community. How might having knowledge of the social sciences affect how you understand that issue or how you act?
  2. Discuss the responsibility (if any) of citizens to be informed about the social sciences. Consider how a population with a basic understanding of the social sciences could influence how current global challenges or questions are approached.

For your response posts, address the following:

  1. What perspectives did your peers offer that you had not considered previously regarding the value of a population having knowledge of the social sciences?
  2. Share other ways being more informed about the social sciences could help your peers understand or act on the community issue they identified.

Remember, this assignment is graded on the quality of your initial post and at least two response posts to your classmates. You are not required to do research for this discussion. If you do refer to sources, be sure to include an attribution (or citation) to the resource.

Provide a 2 pages analysis while answering the following question: Specific Language Impairment. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide. An abstract is required. SPECIFIC LANGUAGE IMPAIRMENT All parents look forward to when their children begin talking. Once the infant’s babble has been replaced by language, the child’s vocabulary and grasp of grammar develop in a clear sequence. Further language skills are gained as the child begins to learn how to read. Problems in any part of this development can have repercussions during school years and into adulthood. Disorders of spoken language can involve a range of problems such as very slow language development and poor understanding of long and complex sentences – these can affect up to 7 per cent of children in early school years (Leonard, 2004).

In some cases, they are due to a physical problem such as hearing loss. in others the delay is short and children catch up quickly with their peers. But about 4 per cent of children have a specific impairment that has no physical cause but requires clinical attention (Watkins, 1994). These language impairments take several different forms. Some children have problems with making the correct sounds, others with classifying speech sounds (not recognizing that ‘pat’ and ‘potato’ begin with the same sound, for example) or get sounds in the wrong sequence. Grammar can also pose problems: some children aged six or seven talk in a babyish way, using short, ungrammatical sentences such as “yesterday I go to school” (Watkins, 1994).

Professor Dorothy Bishop, a Welcome Trust Principal Research Fellow at the University of Oxford’s Department of Experimental Psychology, has been investigating this complex group of deficits and their many associated risk factors and syndromes (Leonard, 2004). Using a wide range of techniques – including experimental psychology, electrophysiology, genetics and language assessment – she is working to characterize the disorders and understand their origins. Professor Bishop has found that most children with specific language impairment have several underlying problems. The picture emerging is that there are multiple risk factors for specific language impairment that do not cause problems if they occur alone, but in combination with other deficits they do (Watkins, 1994).

For example, electrophysiological studies have found that some children show unusually rapid decay of memory for incoming sounds. This is also found in the parents, even if they have no language difficulties themselves. Impairment results when this poor short-term memory is combined with other traits such as poor discrimination of word sounds (Watkins, 1994). In studies on twins and the parents of children with specific language impairment, Professor Bishop has shown that some aspects of the disorder – such as impaired short-term memory for speech sounds – are heritable. In order to identify the genes that contribute, there must be accurate ways of selecting groups of children to study. Using behavioral genetics Professor Bishop has identified markers of family risk for specific language impairment such as the inability to repeat nonsense words (Watkins, 1994).

These markers appear to have distinct genetic origins and can be used to select groups of

Children for targeted gene studies (Leonard, 2004). Language problems are also seen as part of broader syndromes such as autism, cerebral palsy and Down’s syndrome. Professor Bishop has found it informative to compare the types of language difficulty seen in different conditions. She has, for example, found that children with Down’s syndrome and children with specific language impairment share some communication deficits. She has also found differences in the brain responses to speech of children with Down’s syndrome that could underlie some of their language deficits (Leonard, 2004).

Need an research paper on three different forms of reading instructions. Needs to be 5 pages. Please no plagiarism. Much of the knowledge is gained through the use of print media and this also means that readers are inherently more successful at comprehending text that is dealing with a familiar subject. Additionally, the interpretation of the text is also based on a number of external factors such as the use of life experiences in comprehension and understanding of the text.

Apart from this, the level of understanding is highly dependent on the interrelation of different parts of the text as well as the degree of redundancy of the information being discussed upon (a partially redundant text helps the reader stay in greater touch with the text). The way in which a text is organized also allows the users to make certain predictions and compare them with the actual outcomes of the subsequent information. This comparison between the desired and the most logically believed outcomes and the actual outcomes determines the level of coherence between the message being conveyed by the text and the manner in which the reader interprets the meaning.

The purposes of reading are themselves multi-faceted. A reader can pursue such an interest for the purposes of gathering information or for pleasure. In fact, the importance of the reading process determines the intensity with which the reader would be focusing on the reading process. Readers contract mental images of how they perceive the thing to be and assess whether they understand it totally. In case of a mismatch, the reader may switch to another text in order to utilize the time in a better way. As such, it is always important to ensure that the pattern of instruction is well defined and properly structured (Michael Pressley, 2005).

A reader may not receive information from text alone. In fact, the word ‘text’ has been referred to all along with deals with the process of knowledge sharing through a number of mediums. However, all such mediums and their associated patterns and procedures are varied in nature and need to be discussed in detail. It is in this context that the term reading instruction has arisen.
