RSCH 8210 Walden University Estimation of Models Discussion
You have had plenty of opportunity to interpret coefficients for metric variables in regression models. Using and interpreting categorical variables takes just a little bit of extra practice. In this Discussion, you will have the opportunity to practice how to recode categorical variables so they can be used in a regression model and how to properly interpret the coefficients. Additionally, you will gain some practice in running diagnostics and identifying any potential problems with the model.To prepare for this Discussion:Review Warner’s Chapter 12 and Chapter 2 of the Wagner course text and the media program found in this week’s Learning Resources and consider the use of dummy variables.Create a research question using the General Social Survey dataset that can be answered by multiple regression. Using the SPSS software, choose a categorical variable to dummy code as one of your predictor variables.By Day 3Estimate a multiple regression model that answers your research question. Post your response to the following:What is your research question?Interpret the coefficients for the model, specifically commenting on the dummy variable.Run diagnostics for the regression model. Does the model meet all of the assumptions? Be sure and comment on what assumptions were not met and the possible implications. Is there any possible remedy for one the assumption violations?Be sure to support your Main Post and Response Post with reference to the week’s Learning Resources and other scholarly evidence in APA Style.

The main goals of the California missions were to convert Native Americans to devoted Spanish citizens and Christians. Spain aimed to influence Native Americans through religious and cultural instruction. Indigenous people often resisted the California missions. For instance, the Mission Indians ran away from captivity, and in 1795, more than 200 Costanoan planned a mass escape from Mission Dolores, and 280 Indian "converts" escaped from the San Francisco Mission.
The term "Manifest Destiny" relates to this chapter in the following way. It is a common belief that the Northern Mexico conquering and, "Its popularity was possible because of buoyant nationalism, and the war itself accelerated the spirit of nationalism and confirmed the manifest destiny of the United States" (Dunbar-Ortiz, 2015, p. 130). During this period, Manifest Destiny was happening in the United States because of the patriotism that the citizens of the U.S. created. However, the abolitionists believed United States’ colonization and manifest destiny, although with no slaves.
In "Lying to Children about the California Missions and the Indians", Deborah Miranda's argues that children are consistently fed lies regarding indigenous people, and the curriculum has not considered updating to the prevailing situations of the present-day California Indians. What stood to me was how the dark sides of the mission are hidden from the learners. Only the positive sides are glorified; a perfect example of what Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie described as the dangers of a single story.
My K-12 education relates to the experiences mentioned in Lim's article on "Educating Elementary School Children About California Missions and Genocide" because each of the cases that were falsely stated in history books is exactly what I was taught in school. As a corrective measure to this misguided history, Lim proposes that the learners should be told the truth about Indigenous people in California, especially in upper school grades, when they can better comprehend the fate of Indigenous Indians.
What stood to me in the article is the author’s definition of the "California Dream." While they presented as missionaries, the Spaniards came with the intent to find gold in California. To the Native people, the "California Dream" meant colonization and the fight for freedom (Chilcote, 2017). The author proposes that the land should be given back to their rightful native tribal governments without eliminating the non-Indian people per se.
The story behind the song is about a group of former slaves employed by the U.S. Army to fight the Native Americans of the Great Plains. The title “Buffalo Soldiers" came from how the Native Americans described these unusual soldiers, whose kinky, dark hair reminded them of the hide of a buffalo. “Said he was the buffalo soldier win the war for America.”
This course has been very thought provocative, educative and insightful across several themes. From the "Dangers of a Single Story" to "Educating Elementary School Children About California Missions and Genocide," this course have expanded my understanding and appreciation for diversity and Native communities. I think the next module will provide insights on how best to come into terms with the history of America while embracing current issues regarding multiculturalism.

It should help you to do the reading assigned before answering these questions. Also post a paragraph response to one of the other postings by your classmates. Make clear which comment you are responding to. You may agree, disagree, ask a question, or try to come up with a transition connecting two of the ideas in different postings.

We show our surprise at this by speaking of something called the “French paradox”. . . Yet I wonder if it doesn’t make more sense to speak in terms of an American paradox—that is, a notably unhealthy people obsessed by the idea of eating healthily.

In the 70s, International Flavors and Fragrances said synthetic could be better than natural, since natural foods are a “wild mixture of substances created by plants and animals for completely non-food purposes—their survival and reproduction. . . consumed by humans at their own risk” (97). In contrast, we could eat “things designed by humans for the express purpose of being eaten by people” (97).Pollan points out that “Natural raspberry” could be from chemically modified from corn or any other “natural” origin (98). He also notes the development of resistant starch, which we can’t digest so there are no calories (99).What is your reaction to the argument by IFF? What is wrong with this reasoning?How do you feel about the developments in “natural flavoring” and “resistant starch”? What else would you like to know about this topic?
