Consider the validity and reliability of different assessment tools

For this Assignment, you will consider the validity and reliability of different assessment tools and diagnostic tests.

You will explore issues such as sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values. Also,you will also consider examples of children with various weight issues.

You will explore how you could effectively gather information and encourage parents and caregivers to be proactive about their children’s health and weight.

To Prepare Review this week’s Learning Resources and consider factors that impact the validity and reliability of various assessment tools and diagnostic tests. You also will review examples of paediatric patients and their families as it relates to BMI.

Note:

Please see the “Course Announcements” section of the classroom for your assignments from your Instructor. Search the Walden Library and credible sources for resources explaining the tool or test you were assigned.

What is its purpose, how is it conduct ed, and what information does it gather?

Also, as you search the Walden library and credible sources, consider what the literature discusses regarding the validity, reliability, sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, ethical dilemmas, and controversies related to the test or tool.

For Assignment Option 2 (Child), consider what health issues and risks may be relevant to the child in the health example. Based on the risks you identified, consider what further information you would need to gain a full understanding of the child’s health. Think about how you could gather this information in a sensitive fashion. Consider how you could encourage parents or caregivers to be proactive toward the child’s health. The Assignment (3–4 pages, not including title and reference pages):

Assignment Option 1:

Adult Assessment Tools or Diagnostic Tests: Include the following:
A description of how the assessment tool or diagnostic test you were assign ed is used in healthcare. What is its purpose?

How is it conducted?

What information does it gather?

Based on your research, evaluate the test or the tool’s validity and reliability. Further, explain any issues with sensitivity, reliability, and predictive values. Include references in appropriate APA formatting.

Assignment Option 2: Child Health Case:
Include the following: An explanation of the health issues and risks that are relevant to the child you were assign ed.

Describe additional information you would need in order to further assess his or her weight-related health.

Identify and describe any risks and consider what further information you would need to gain a full understanding of the child’s health.

Think about how you could gather this information in a sensitive fashion. Taking into account the parents’ and caregivers’ potential sensitivities, list at least three specific questions you would ask about the child to gather more information.

Provide at least two strategies you could employ to encourage the parents or caregivers to be proactive about their child’s health and weight.

Construction IT from 1975 to 2019 artificial intelligence additive manufacturing

Construction IT from 1975 to 2019 artificial intelligence additive manufacturing

In the construction industry, there are four major key performance indicators: safety, time, costs and quality. The application of information and computational technologies allow the construction practitioners to select the economically viaable solutions that can reduce time, improve safety performance or quality. For example, an additive manufacturing system which utilises many mobile robots print a large building structure. Wavelet neural network-based approach compresses data into low- and high-resolution surfaces to detect concrete cracks and other damages. That successfully overcomes the problems of labour inspection such as labour intensive, personal judgment and experience that’s prone to error. Convolution Neural Network performs feature extraction and predicts crack in a fully automated manner. In this research, we aim to compare and contrast the innovative construction informatics that achieve at least one of the four KPI in the construction industry and academic research:

 

1) artificial intelligence and natural intelligence

2) additive manufacturing,

3), knowledge and information sharing,

4) automated tools outside categories 1-3. We apply the abovementioned keyword search to study all the publications published academic databases Web of Science and Scopus from 1975 to 2019’s abstract. We then utilise the Social Network Analysis (SNA) method to study the major research that is studied in the construction industry research in all year long and evolution overtime. This approach not only allows us to see the major types of the research that the universities and research institutions have done, but also provide a research agenda to the latest research. After that, we also study the innovation that received patent according to those indexed in the Google database. A patent is an exclusive right granted for an invention and those who awarded patent must show new innovative idea exists in the invention. Apart from that, we use the abovementioned keywords in Google database to search for the 1) artificial intelligence and natural intelligence 2) additive manufacturing, 3), knowledge and information sharing, 4) automated tools to identify the construction companies’ research and development (R&D) in recent three decades. Evolution of the changes in R&D is also studied. Comparison between academic research, patent and general website information provided by the search engine Google allow us to understand the differences in the development of the informatics. Our research results show that many of the academic research sheds light on modelling, data, decision making and construction operation. On the other hand, many of the patents’ products are developed by using artificial neural network to predict the performance or construction device for building process. Keywords : artificial intelligence, patent, construction industry
