The four key elements of professional regulation have been identified as health professional registration, the setting of standards and codes, accreditation and the management of risk to the public through complaints handling (Chiarella & White, 2013).

The Wages of Emotion Work

/in /by

As explained in the box by Ferris and Stein, emotion work is the process of managing, evoking, or suppressing feelings so as to create a public display of emotion. The box explains that when a person manages or suppresses his emotions, he is able to relate well with the public. During daily interaction, one expects to meet with people with various personalities. After suppressing or evoking the felt emotions, an individual is able to build strong relationships with the society members (120). This is the wage of controlling one’s emotions. Instead of getting involved in frequent conflicts and fights with other people, a person should control his emotions so as to relate effectively. This is supported by Grandey(95) as she explains how an employee benefits the organization by managing her emotions in order interact with clients or customers in an effective way. This is known as emotional labor in which one enhances, fakes, or suppresses his emotions in order to modify the emotional expression.

The box is very important in the textbook since it is used in explaining how relationships can be built. Sociology is all about interacting and relating with other people in the society. Suppressing or managing emotions would therefore be a part of the things a person should do so as to relate well with others. The box mentions and explained both primary and secondary sources. There are also examples explaining how managing emotions pays. The content in the box is clearly written and this makes me more interested with it. However, it might be confusing at the start since one might not understand why suppressing emotions would be beneficial.

This week we learn about the brain and the nervous system. As we learn about how chemical reactions affect us, it made me think of a question. Do we truly control our actions and behaviors? Or do we act based solely on the chemical reactions that happen in brains and nervous systems? What do you think? Which is it? Free will or chemical reactions? In your discussion post, which option do you agree with? Support your response with information from either our textbook or from the video below.

The Be ef Lifecycle

FEEDYARD Cattle spend 4-6 months at a feedyard

being fed a scientifically-balanced diet and receiving daily care. Some

spend the rest of their lives on a pasture being grass finished.

Retailers and foodservice operators sell beef in SUPERMARKETS AND RESTAURANTS.

Due to strong demand for U.S. beef, beef is EXPORTED TO MORE

THAN 130 OTHER COUNTRIES.

Beef helps nourish the bodies of MILLIONS OF AMERICANS

by providing 10 essential nutrients.

STOCKERS AND BACKGROUNDERS Between 6-12 months of age cattle spend

time at stocker and backgrounder farms and ranches where they graze on a variety of

pastures. Here they gain weight and convert forage and grass into lean protein.

LIVESTOCK AUCTION MARKETS Many calves leave the farm or ranch

where they were born and are sold at livestock auction markets to stockers and

backgrounders between 6-12 months of age.

WEANING Beef calves are weaned away from their

mothers between 6-8 months of age.

CALVES FOR SALE

COW-CALF Cows are bred and calves are born and raised every year on cow-calf farms and ranches, spending time grazing on grass pastures within

sight of their mothers.

PACKING PLANT Cattle are sent to a packer/processing facility to be slaughtered and processed then distributed

to supermarket retailers and restaurants.

  • interview two people who have successfully completed doctoral programs.
    Your goal in this assignment is to carefully consider and organize the body of your paper around these three key ideas:

    • What most assisted your interviewees in completing their major research projects or dissertations?
    • What challenges did your interviewees experience?
    • What specific recommendations do your interviewees have for successful completion?
    • Use the following guidelines as you conduct your interview to help you achieve the above three goals:
    • Select individuals to interview, if possible, who are not AU faculty or staff members, since one purpose of this assignment is to broaden your perspectives regarding conducting doctoral research.
    • Each interview should take 30–45 minutes, depending on how responsive your interviewees are.
    • You may conduct your interviews in person or by phone.
      Prior to meeting your interviewees, develop 10–15 interview questions you will ask each of them that will hep you to address the above three goals. It is important to ask the same questions to both.
    • The first question or two should help you understand their research topics and why the topics were of interest to your interviewees. In addition it could be very useful to your research to ask questions like these: What tips do they have for locating good materials, especially research articles? How long did it take the interviewee from start to finish? What resources were required, such as technology, postage, and other costs? Another important area of information concerns the role of the committee chair and the committee members.
    • Several questions should be asked to help you explore what assisted each person the most in completing the research or dissertation.
    • Trying to understand the challenges each interviewee faced will also require several questions.
    • As you conduct each interview, you may ask related, follow up questions to help you better understand each interviewee’s response, such as: “Could you give me a specific example of what you meant when you said …?” or “Could you provide a little more detail about …?” This will help you provide details in your paper as well as enhance your understanding of the challenges faced.
    • Toward the end of your interview, ask what recommendations each interviewee could provide to help you be successful in the completion of your dissertation.
    • In order to capture the information from the interview, be prepared to take detailed notes. Some students even request permission to tape record their interviews so they can replay and listen to them to better understand the information provided by each interviewee.
    • Collate the information gathered from your interviews. Write a three- to four-page analysis comparing and contrasting the information from the two interviews. Do not present the analysis in a question and answer format.

      Consider the following as you write your paper:

    • Introductory Paragraph: Begin your paper with a purpose statement and a map of how you intend to organize your paper. Using the 3 main goals listed above as broad themes/categories with sub headings could be a most useful way to organize this paper. Be sure to also include in this introductory paragraph the name of each or pseudonym [if confidentiality is needed] as well as the basic nature of their research or dissertation study.
    • Your paper should be an analysis of the interviews and a comparison of their experiences, not just a summary of each specific question asked.
    • Attach your interview questionnaire to the end of your paper.
    • By the due date assigned, post your interview analysis in Microsoft Word format to the Submissions Area.

      All written assignments and responses should follow APA style in formatting and attributing sources.
      Please make sure you review the elements of the grading criteria and associated points carefully and make sure your assignment has addressed all the elements and in enough detail to merit full points.
