please respond. to Felipe part 1. and 2 with 300 words
Hello everyone,
My name is Felipe and I am based in Tampa, FL. Currently, I am serving as the Senior Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) Manager. In my role, I am responsible for the safety of all workers in the construction of a new power plant designed to provide energy to a military installation and surroundings. This project is particularly exciting as it not only contributes to national security but also showcases cutting-edge technology and stringent safety standards.
I have been passionate about safety and environmental health throughout my career, and my future goal is to advance to a director position. In this role, I aim to mentor and guide all departments, sharing my knowledge and experience to foster a culture of safety and environmental stewardship across various industries.
Environmental laws have significantly shaped my career, especially since I began working in industrial and nuclear facilities. These regulations have not only ensured the protection of the environment but also the safety and health of workers to include myself.
In my career, I have been exposed to various toxic substances. The strict environmental laws and regulations have mandated comprehensive training and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) to minimize exposure. For instance, working with hazardous chemicals and radioactive materials required adherence to stringent protocols, ensuring that exposure levels remained within safe limits. These laws have also necessitated regular health check-ups and monitoring, providing an additional layer of protection.
The implementation of these laws has instilled a strong sense of responsibility and vigilance in me. They have made me acutely aware of the potential hazards in industrial environments and the importance of maintaining compliance to safeguard both the environment and human health. I have seen firsthand the positive impacts of these regulations, from reducing incidents of occupational illnesses to enhancing the overall safety culture within organizations. As I continue in my career, I remain committed to upholding these standards and advocating for continuous improvement in environmental health and safety practices

Paper Prompt:
Minorities in the United States have shaped this country in many positive ways, ironically by changing various laws and policies that are a reaction to the negative treatment and discrimination of ethnic minorities. In a minimum of 2 pages, examine the history of the U.S. and its ethnic minorities by choosing one topic to develop and discuss in a critical examination of U.S. history. You may choose a broad topic such as World War II and discuss the treatment of minorities during that time period and its aftereffects, or you may focus your interests on the specifics of gender roles in the Mexican American community during the 1940s. Wherever your interests lie, your job in this assignment is not to summarize a time period, or a group of people and their actions. Your job is to bring history together with present day and discuss how views on minorities, women, sexuality, etc., have developed throughout our history and in present day. You are free to discuss any sort of minority, be it ethnic, gender, sexual, etc.
Below are 2 prompts that can be used. Feel free to chose any of the prompts. Please answer all or some of the questions in the prompt. If you would like to do another topic within the realm of Chicana/o Studies, you are free to do so, just make sure you verify the topic with me.
1. Discuss the role of NAFTA in Mexico since 1994. How has it impacted farm-working communities? What does NAFTA mean for women in Juarez? Do you think the economic status of Mexico will ever change? How have our presidents dealt with NAFTA? What do you think is the future of Mexico-US relations with our current president Biden?
2. Why do people from Latin American countries migrate to the United States? Please cite specific reasons for migrations, not just, “for better opportunities.” Additionally, how has the US dealt with migrants historically. How do you expect them to “deal with” migrants in the near future?
This research paper is a critical analysis of the minority in the United States. I DO NOT want a summary. Your paper should be interesting and effective. The above are merely suggestions for your final paper. Feel free to discuss any aspect of minority presence in the U.S.

Overview
In this assignment, you will choose the research studies you will use as the basis for crafting your research question in Project Three. You will also look for patterns in data-collection types and consider some of the credibility threats to the research studies you have chosen.
Prompt
In Project One: Research Methods in Social Sciences, you examined methodology types for research studies and how each methodology type impacts research. In Project Two: Various Types of Data, which you will complete in Module Six, you will explore data-collection types and their impact on research. As you continue to build toward crafting your complex research question in Project Three, you will need to finalize your research study choices for your specific research problem. Deciding on your research studies now will not only allow you to focus your efforts on developing a complex research question but also help you begin to evaluate the research you have gathered in order to develop a deeper analysis of data collection for the Project Two.
In this assignment, include the following:
Select Research Studies
First, you will need to make sure your research studies represent a variety of research methodology types in order to ensure that you have enough research to draw from to craft your complex research question in Project Three, which you will submit in Module Eight. In addition, to make sure you have enough information to evaluate the data-collection types in your Project Two in Module Six, you will need to complete the following:
Select research studies that explore your chosen research problem and utilize the different methodology types you examined in Project One. You must include two research studies for each methodology type, for a total of six studies.
Note: You only need to submit the APA reference-page citation for each study you will use.
Data-Collection Patterns
Now that you have conducted your preliminary research and chosen the research studies you will use to help craft your research question, you will need to evaluate each of your research studies to determine patterns in data-collection types. Determining patterns in data-collection types now will help you identify and analyze how these types impact potential threats to the credibility of your research, as well as the relevance of data-collection types to the research questions you will explore in Project Two in Module Six. As you consider the types of data included in each of your studies, answer the following:
What data-collection patterns do you notice?
Are there some data-collection types that seem to be used more in your area of study in the social sciences?
What about the other social sciences?
Why do you think that is?
How can using certain data-collection types more than others create a threat to credibility?
Purpose of Varied Data Collection
Finally, in Project Two in Module Six, you will analyze data-collection types to explore the benefits and drawbacks of the choices the researchers made in your selected studies, and the choices of researchers in anthropology, political science, human services, and criminal justice in the social sciences. As you consider data-collection types, answer each of the following:
What are the benefits of multiple data-collection types?
What are the drawbacks of multiple data-collection types?
What is the link between varied data collection and credibility risks?
What are some common types of data collection used in each of the social sciences?
Why do you think certain social sciences seem to favor particular types of data collection over others?
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
Select data-collection types in selected research studies
Explore patterns in data collection to identify and analyze their impact on potential threats to credibility
Examine common data-collection types in social sciences

Sivvanna is a young teenage girl that recalls working in the fields to help her mother make extra money. She is allowed to work in the agriculture fields as young as 12 years old, but she recalls gong out much earlier than that. It is allowed in the United States for 12-year-olds to work unlimited hours with parental permission. She is now older and of the age to go to college but had put that off to continue to help her mother. She someday dreams of going to college to become a lawyer or a teacher, but for now her dreams of college are put aside. You see her entire family was deported to Mexico some time ago and there is no one else to help her mother fend for the family.
Maura is a farm worker, and she recalls needing to help her family buy necessities like food and rent. If she wanted other necessities like clothes and shoes, she needed to go work in the fields so she could buy these items. Farm workers in the United Staes have the lowest wages. The average famer worker makes $15,000 to $17,499 per year. While families make $20,000 to $24,000. In order to survive families, find it necessary to have their children work to lesson the burden on the family. They only survive because children are allowed to work in the fields. Most of children go
Vincente Reyes is another child laborer. He started in the fields picking onions when he was in the 8th grade. He was able to succeed as a college student and become an advocate for child laborers. This is necessary since children out in the fields are exposed to chemicals and pesticides. It is unknown if these children will develop forms of cancer after growing up around these pesticides. Some children can also get asthma when exposed to these liquid chemicals that become aerosolized and irritate the throat and lungs of these kids.
The United States passed a labor law that was called “The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938” unfortunately the farm workers and child farm workers are exempt by this law. This law keeps record of the over time pay, record keeping, and child labor standards. For the farm workers young and old this law is useless. There is another law that is trying to get passed as a law. It is the CARE ACT or the Children’s Act for Responsible Employment and Farm Safety. Many people stand up for the rights of farm workers, however you need to be careful in doing that. Some people threaten the workers that are trying to call attention to the plight of the farm Labor.

Overview
In this assignment, you will look at examples of research projects where the results were tainted and evaluate why things were able to go wrong.
Prompt
In this assignment, you will review summaries of actual research studies. For each research study, consider potential ethical and research design issues that impacted the study and its results (for example, lack of a review board for oversight, researcher bias) and what practices researchers could have followed to prevent such a situation.
Review the summary of each research study and then describe the ethical and design issues that impacted each study. You may find the studies in this assignment to be emotionally and intellectually challenging. As a professional in a social science field, you will often be faced with such situations and need to approach them in a respectful and professional manner. For this assignment, focus on potential ethical and design issues with each study and not your personal opinions about the topic of the study. If you need emotional support because of issues addressed in the assignment, please take advantage of the services available to you as a SNHU student via the HelpU Portal, which can be accessed via the Supports and Resources section of my SNHU.
Specifically, the following rubric criteria must be addressed:
Describe ethical and design issues in the Stanford Prison Experiment and what practices researchers could have followed to prevent a situation like this. Use references to support your recommendation(s).
Describe ethical and design issues in the John/Joan research study and what practices researchers could have followed to prevent a situation like this. Use references to support your recommendation(s).
Describe ethical and design issues in the Behavioral Study of Obedience research study and what practices researchers could have followed to prevent a situation like this. Use references to support your recommendation(s).
Stanford Prison Experiment
This research study sought to explain how people respond to authority roles. During this study, the researcher, Philip Zimbardo, enlisted students to play the role of either an inmate or a prison guard. This study was planned to take place for two weeks and is referred to as the “Stanford Prison Experiment.” Zimbardo’s goals were to “see what the psychological effects were of becoming a prisoner or prison guard.” In the study, Zimbardo played the role of the prison superintendent. The “guards” were given no training and made up whatever rules they deemed necessary to maintain control of their “prisoners.” The guards used humiliation tactics to control the prisoners by stripping them, delousing them, and subjecting them to repeated rounds of push-ups and “counts” where the prisoners had to call out their prisoner number, as well as solitary confinement and physical confrontations.
The prisoners eventually rebelled, but this rebellion was quickly squashed when the guards called in reinforcements and order was restored. Eventually, the guards decided to use the prisoners against each other to help maintain order, and they created a “privilege cell” where the most compliant prisoners were allowed to have additional privileges such as clothing, beds, and special food, all of which the other prisoners were allowed to watch. Then, the guards decided to randomly shift the prisoners around and placed the “good” prisoners back in with the “bad” prisoners, and some of the bad prisoners were selected to enjoy the privileges of the good cell. The purpose of this tactic was to get the prisoners to direct their aggression toward each other and away from the guards. These authoritarian tactics and the psychological abuse sustained by the prisoners had a profound effect, and the prisoners became convinced that they were not free to leave. Zimbardo himself even began to feel as though his role and the situation were real when a fellow researcher questioned what his independent variable was and his response was anger at the question, because he “had a prison break on his hands.” In the end, the experiment was called off after only six days.
“John/Joan Case” Research Study
A study done by Dr. John Money conducted research on the concept that gender identity is learned. In this study, unnecessary sexual reassignment surgery was performed on a male infant who had experienced a severely botched circumcision. The psychologist, Dr. Money, told the family that gender identity is primarily learned and was a proponent of the theory of gender neutrality, which proposes that gender identity is developed as a result of social learning and could be changed. With Dr. Money’s guidance, the boy was castrated and raised with a female gender identity. A factor in this experiment was that the baby had a male twin, making it possible for Dr. Money to have a control. Eventually, after years of psychological struggle and emotional angst, the boy was informed of what had happened. The child decided to resume life with a male gender identity. He died by suicide at age 38.
“Behavioral Study of Obedience” Research Study
Another research study was conducted by Stanley Milgram. His study sought to understand how and why individuals are willing to obey individuals in an authoritative role. Participants and actors were recruited to participate in this experiment, with the actors playing the role of the learner and the volunteers playing the role of the teacher. The teachers thought they were participating in a study looking to examine the effect of physical punishment on learning. The teacher would tell the learner a series of paired words, and when the learner got any of the paired words incorrect, the teacher was supposed to administer an electrical shock. Neither participant could see one another, but they could hear one another.
No actual shock was delivered, but the teacher did not know this, and they would hear screams, stomping, banging, and other sounds of pain each time a “shock” was delivered. The learner would intentionally get the word pair incorrect from time to time, and each time the electrical shock was supposedly increased. The highest shock, 450 volts, would have been lethal if actually administered. The teachers would occasionally stop to question whether they should continue, and the researchers would respond with four prods to try and get them to continue. Those prods were: “Please continue,” “The experiment requires that you continue,” “It is absolutely essential that you continue,” and “You have no other choice; you must go on.” In the first round of the experiment, 65% of the teachers administered the lethal shock. Subsequent rounds produced ranges from 28% to 91%.
