How are eye contact, facial expression, gestures, and posture measured in the culture? How does the culture dress? What about grooming? How do they feel about touch and time?

Assignment: Deliver a 5 to 7-minute informative speech during which you may use one 3×5 note card. You will identify and illustrate your awareness of non-verbal communication through the examination of a different culture.

In order to complete this assignment, select a country other than the United States or your country of origin. Discuss the culture in terms of three (3) of the five characteristics of non- verbal communication.

Kinesics – How are eye contact, facial expression, gestures, and posture measured in the culture?

Paralanguage – What are some of the vocal aspects (i.e., pitch, rate, dialect, and volume) of the culture?

Self-presentation – How does the culture dress? What about grooming? How do they feel about touch and time?

Proxemics – How does the culture treat space, distance, lighting, color, and temperature?

Other cultural considerations – How does gift giving, religious observations, appropriate title use, etc. affect non-verbal communication?

4. Define and explain the purpose of your chosen research design. Briefly explain how this design will purposeful to your research question.

5. Provide 3 methods on how you will measure your variables (review your data collection options that we discussed at the beginning of the semester. Here are a few hints a test, survey, treatment condition, etc. *Keep in mind that these task will be based on the type of research design you have chosen.

6. Create a “Raw Data Distribution Chart” of 50 participants scores. You may choose ANY numerical values that you would like (any variety of values 20 or higher) as long as you have 50 values in total. You will not submit the raw data chart; instead, you will create a frequency table for your data.

7. Run a “t-Test” by compute your data in the statistical software by following the directions provided:

You will run your analysis and interpret your results. COMPUTE YOUR DATA USING the link for Vassar Stats to run the analysis on your data http://vassarstats.net/tu.html

RESEARCH PROPOSAL FORM
Research Statement: Workforce Shortages within the Department of Affairs (VA) – Veterans Health Administration (VHA).

The primary function of the VA is to provide psychological and medical services to Veterans.  For this project, I am addressing workforce shortages within Title 38 positions (e.g., psychologists, social workers, pharmacists, registered nurses, and licensed practical nurses).  The average age of a Title 38 category employee is 48.6 years (according to the most recent federal workforce data provided by the Office of Personnel Management). With a significant percentage of those employees reaching eligibility for retirement, the biggest human resource challenge that VA must address is the recruitment and retention of highly skilled and qualified personnel to fill these positions to avoid gaps in the care provided to veterans and their families.

Setting Description: Department of Affairs (VA) – Veterans Health Administration (VHA).

Detailed description of the organization: The Veterans Health Administration is America’s largest integrated health care system, providing care at 1,298 health care facilities, including 171 medical centers and 1,113 outpatient sites of care of varying complexity (VHA outpatient clinics), serving 9 million enrolled Veterans each year.1

VHA Medical Centers provide a wide range of services including traditional hospital-based services such as surgery, critical care, mental health, orthopedics, pharmacy, radiology and physical therapy. In addition, most of the medical centers offer additional medical and surgical specialty services including audiology & speech pathology, dermatology, dental, geriatrics, neurology, oncology, podiatry, prosthetics, urology, and vision care. Some medical centers also offer advanced services such as organ transplants and plastic surgery.1
