Emiliano – Assignment 3
Critical Analysis – Face Facts: there’s money in sin
Tom Stevenson writes about a serious matter in Face Facts: there’s money in sin – Can a
person make better money in the stock market by investing in ethical companies or by investing
in less ethical companies? Stevenson writes that it appears that sinful companies, like those
associated with the tobacco industry, pay the best and that being a saint in this world, by
investing in ethical companies, does not pay. He then goes on to explain how, in reality, the truth
lies somewhere in between.
Money is the root of every sin. Every business thinks of getting higher profits, and
companies that supply alcohol, guns, tobacco, etc. have steady profits because there is always a
demand for these sinful products regardless of economic conditions. There are some investors
who value their ethics more than money, and they will not invest in sinful companies. So, those
investing in such companies get a higher yield.
Since the introduction of the Corporate Governance approach in 1990, companies tend to
manage in better ways. Sins are enough to break down an economy, as the tobacco industry did.
People enjoy smoking, and companies enjoy money. But the effects of smoking hurt society.
Probably Stevenson is referring to tax issues in this blog, but he is ultimately pointing out many
other relative issues, like health issues caused by tobacco. He concludes that the best approach is
to buy into sinful companies and then get involved in improving them on social, ethical,
environmental issues because “in this way investors stand to benefit from a double whammy:
they lock in the high yields of out of favour shares and gain from a re-rating as other investors
recognise the companies’ improving behavior.”

I/O Testing and Measurement - Test Uses
Test UsesTesting is useful in any setting that requires objective information to make decisions about people. Educational and occupational testing are two broad areas that use testing extensively. You may have taken educational tests such as the GRE or SAT, and you have probably taken hundreds of classroom tests at this point in your education. Occupational testing, in contrast, can match people with jobs and careers or help select job candidates. Clinical and counseling psychology also use applied testing. Tests used by these types of psychologists can help people understand themselves better and can be used for personal guidance. In addition, tests can assist with mental health diagnosis and treatment planning.Tests can be used to measure many different personal characteristics: intelligence, personality, skill or aptitude, psychopathology, and interest. The same test can be used for many different purposes and several tests can be used together, as part of a test battery. An important aspect of testing is to understand which tests to use in a particular situation in order to answer specific questions and make the best decisions.Select three tests (one from each of three different categories, e.g., intelligence and vocational interest) from the list below. Research the tests you selected using the Mental Measurements Yearbook database in the Walden Library. Then consider how you might use each of these three tests in a specific context and why.Intelligence Tests:Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, 4th Edition (WAIS-IV)Stanford-Binet, 5th EditionKaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC)Academic Achievement Tests:Wide Range Achievement Test, 4th Edition (WRAT4)Woodcock-Johnson Tests of AchievementVocational Interest Tests:Career Assessment InventorySelf-Directed SearchStrong Interest InventoryTest of Personality/Psychopathology:Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, 2 (MMPI-2)Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory, 2 (MCMI-III)16-PF Myers-Briggs NEO-PI-RWith these thoughts in mind:Post by Day 4 a brief description of the three tests you selected. Then explain appropriate uses of these tests. Finally, describe how you might use each test in a specific context, and provide a rationale for using each test in the context described.
