Describe the psychological theory or theories that relate to the mental disorders, especially in the areas of diagnosis and treatment.

This week, you will complete a annotated bibliography for a paper that will be due in Week 5. For more information on the required format of the bibliography please click on annotated bibliography template.

For Week 3, utilize the mental disorder categories from DSM-5 to do an annotated bibliography on current research (within the last five years) on two disorders derived from the following list of mental disorder categories:

  • Neurodevelopmental disorders

  • Neurocognitive disorders

  • Schizophrenia spectrum and other disorders

  • Depressive disorders

  • Bipolar and related disorders

  • Anxiety disorders

  • Trauma- and stressor-related disorders

  • Obsessive-compulsive and related disorders

  • Somatic symptom and related disorders

  • Eating disorders

  • Sleep disorders

  • Personality disorders

The literature review is part of a final paper which will be due in Week 5. As part of choosing scholarly journal articles for the literature review, you will use the following subtopics in determining what articles to use.

  • Describe from the origins or history of the mental disorders.

  • Describe the psychological theory or theories that relate to the mental disorders, especially in the areas of diagnosis and treatment.

  • Describe the difference, if any, in age of onset and diagnostic criteria based on gender.

  • Explain the potential impact of the mental disorders on the individual and his or her family.

  • Explain the social perceptions of the mental disorders from stigma to advocacy.

Using the South University Online Library only, find three journal articles related to each topic area chosen. (Your textbook, Wikipedia, or any other Web source will not be accepted for this assignment.) The journal articles have to be from peer-reviewed scholarly journals. The articles do not need to be empirical studies but are required to be from primary sources.

  • Write a summary for each of the journal articles found.

  • Write an analysis and evaluation for each of the journal articles found.

Branch Logic/Skip Logic – interactive flow chart

I put together a matrix (0 = not capable, 1= capable) of data analytics tools. The idea is to ask a series of questions that will guide one to select the correct BI tool. So basically as the associate selects an answer (it takes into account the matrix) and eliminates tools that doesn’t have the capability and after the final question it spits out the tool (s) based on the inputs.

1. What is the frequency of your reporting?

2. What type of analysis are you wanting to complete?

3. Level of Visual Sophistication?

4. What is your level of experience in using BI tools?

5. Describe the type of data processing capability that you need?

The idea is to have an interactive flow chart if you will, either in PPT or Excel or any other platform for that matter that is easy and user friendly but that takes the matrix into account.

IE 3302: Production & Inventory Control Fall 2020

IE 3302: Production & Inventory Control Fall 2020

For this assignment, you will develop an Excel-based simulation tool using VBA macros to explore the effect of demand variability on system performance. There are two components to this project: 1) the simulation tool and 2) a report that describes experimentation and results. This project will be worth 16% of your overall course grade, with the simulation tool and the report each contributing 8%, respectively.

Part 1: Simulation Tool

This tool will simulate daily demand, demand fulfillment, and inventory replenishment of a single item for 365 simulated days using the EOQ method of inventory control. Assume the following parameter values as inputs to your tool:

 

Daily demand 10 units/day
Order cost $5/order
Holding cost $0.05/unit/day
Vendor lead time 4 days
Backorder cost $10/unit/day
Purchase cost $0.05/unit

 

The economic order quantity (EOQ) method of inventory control assumes that demand occurs continuously. For this assignment, you will approximate continuous demand by assuming a daily time- step, in which the following events occur in each simulated day:

  • Start of the day: Any replenishment orders that are due from the vendor will arrive at the start of the day and will be added to available inventory. This inventory is assumed to be available to fill orders on the same day that it arrives. If there are backorders from the previous day (i.e., negative inventory), those orders will be filled
  • End of the day: Available inventory will be drawn down by the number of units demanded during the day. You will then check to see if a replenishment order needs to be placed; if so, the order is placed with the vendor, and the vendor’s lead time clock starts running (i.e., at the start of the next day, the lead time will be reduced by 1 day).

The tool will be used to simulate three different scenarios, each of which must be run for 10 replications of 365 simulated days. For all three scenarios, you will capture (at a minimum):

  • One state variable – current inventory level – at the start and end of each simulated day
  • Two system performance metrics – cost and service level – at the end of each 365-day simulation replication

The three scenarios are as follows:

  1. Start by assuming that there is no demand variability (i.e., the system is deterministic). Determine the optimal order quantity (Q*) and reorder point (r*) for this system, and use these values to control inventory replenishment. Assuming that you start at time 0 with Q* units in inventory, run the simulation, and collect relevant output
  2. Now, assume that daily demand exhibits randomness (i.e., the system is stochastic) and follows a normal distribution. Again, use Q* and r* to control inventory replenishment. Assuming that you start at time 0 with Q* units in inventory, run the simulation for the following three daily demand distributions (mean, standard deviation):
    • Low demand variability: N(10, 2)
    • Medium demand variability: N(10, 5)
    • High demand variability: N(10, 10)
  1. Finally, assume that you can buffer against demand variability using safety stock. Assume you start at time 0 with Q* + ss units in inventory, and run the simulation for the three demand distributions described above (i.e., low, medium, high). Experiment with different levels of safety stock: What level of safety stock gives you the lowest total cost and/or service level on average (over 10 replications)? How does safety stock impact system performance across each of the 10 simulation replications?

Simulation Tool Guidelines

For full credit, your simulation tool should:

  • Be programmed using VBA macros in Excel
  • Produce correct results for all specified scenarios
  • Be easy to use and understand

Part 2: Report

Your mini-project report must be no more than 5 pages long (single-spaced, font size = 12, 1-inch margins), including figures/tables. You do not need to include a title page. The report should contain the following four sections:

  1. Introduction & Motivation
    • Describe the issue/question that you are investigating with the simulation tool that you created
    • Briefly describe the approach that you used to answer this question (i.e., stochastic simulation)
    • Explain why this approach is useful for answering the question of interest
  1. Experimentation and Results
    • Present and explain your results for the three experimental scenarios described above (no demand variability; three levels of demand variability but no safety stock; three levels of demand variability with safety stock)
      • It is a good idea to use summary statistics and figures to present your results
      • Keep in mind that random inputs into the simulation model will produce random outputs. Therefore, you will need to account for this randomness when you present your results. For example, use error bars, standard deviations,
  1. Discussion of Results
    • Provide a discussion of the results that you presented in the previous section. Be sure to compare results from all three scenarios. How does demand variability impact system performance? How well does the EOQ method work when demand is variable? As industrial engineers, how can we manage demand variability and its impacts?
  1. Conclusion
  • What are the main takeaways from this study?
  • What other experiments could/should be undertaken to explore this issue?
  • How might the results of this study be useful for a real-world production system? Specifically, who might benefit from this tool, and how?
