Social problems
First social problem
Homelessness is a social issue that my group experiences. It is a state of individuals who need normal access to lodging, and is created by a few elements, for example, emotional instability, medication ill-use, physical or sexual misuse, and basically not having enough cash. Individuals who have complex life problem identified with emotional instability and substance ill-use are the well on the way to be homeless in light of the fact that they can’t hold an unfaltering employment and as a result, can’t manage the cost of rent. Likewise, homeless might be created by physical and sexual ill-use. Those continually getting attacked by their families may decide to flee and look for shelter in the boulevards as opposed to acknowledge a life of day by day beatings and assaults. This is exceptionally predominant among teens and women.
At last, the most imperative motivation behind why individuals get homeless could be because of the inaccessibility of competitive lodging for low wage individuals. This shows that individuals have a tendency to get homeless out of unavoidable circumstances. There are individuals who do have work yet they gain excessively little to pay for rent, power, water, and other lodging costs. In the event that an individual loses his occupation, then they clearly have no real way to pay for anything whatsoever (Edward et al,. 430). With everything taken into account, homelessness is a developing issue and obliges social activity. This might be achieved by building moderate lodging units to low salary individuals, securing ladies and kids from misuse, and helping medication addicts conquer their addictions and giving individuals with dysfunctional behaviors competitive health awareness.
Second social Problem
Social problem might be characterized in numerous distinctive ways. They impact everybody and a few of us experience problem commonplace as an aftereffect of our race, religion, sexual orientation, or low pay. Others encounter problem from mechanical change or declining neighborhoods, others are influenced straightforwardly by wrongdoing and savagery in their own particular neighborhood, and in some cases meanings of social problem are changed by public opinion on account of progressions around you. Finally so as to accomplish the motivation behind this which is to inspect and talk about diverse problem and circumstances that cause social problem, for example, destitution. Overpopulation and social problem go hand and turn in today’s general public and there are numerous reasons and components in the matter of why these problem exist. Calculates that prompt overpopulation that causes social problem are the build in the amount of single parents in poor neighborhoods restricted to the decrease in conception rates in the more productive parts of the nation, how the demise rate is at a relentless decay on account of restorative developments in rich and poor nations, the impacts foreigners have on an environment and the populace development that happens, the impact folks leave on children (Richard 23).
social problem will dependably exist on the grounds that social problem change as time progressions. We regularly have a tendency to disregard what we call necessities others call extravagances. Along these lines later on I trust social problem will get to be non-existent yet that is about outlandish. I additionally feel that destitution is an immense issue we confront as a world and that despite the fact that it is difficult to take care of this issue, we must take a gander at it as a progressing issue and try our hardest to help tackle this issue. In last I feel that overpopulation with a couple different components, for example, infections, youthful pregnancies, and the particular case that I think has the most significance is nature’s domain you experience childhood fit as a fiddle you into the individual you grow up to be.
Third social problem
Teenager Smoking: Preventing teenagers from smoking is an enormous test numerous groups confront today. Numerous groups can just watch without activity while nearby organizations keep on offering tobacco items to minors, significantly under danger of punishment of law. Late studies demonstrate that a huge rate of youngsters today are getting their cigarettes from stores, for the most part service stations or comfort store. As youngsters keep on having the capacity to purchase their own particular cigarettes, more groups start to force stronger disciplines on shippers who offer to the high school children (Logsdon 10).
One group has encountered accomplishment in their endeavors to stop the offer of tobacco items to minors. Woodridge, Illinois, began a program, seven years back that disallowed and strictly rebuffed the offer of tobacco items to minors. The whole program incorporates neighborhood permitting of merchants, rehashed undercover assessments to check whether the deal to minors has halted, and training projects in schools. Woodridge has turned into a model group as different groups are moving to stop adolescent tobacco utilization. A late national study demonstrated that 36.5% of females, and 40.8% of guys purchase their cigarettes from stores, whether it be a corner store or a market. Surely, as more shippers see the inconvenience they confront if discovered offering to minors, they will quit offering. Genuine, tightening down on saves that offer tobacco to minors isn¹t going to totally stop the issue of teenager tobacco utilization. Adolescents keep on getting them from different sources. Yet it most likely does hamper their endeavors. With more instruction in schools, and maybe stronger disciplines for youngsters got with tobacco, more teenagers will see the problem with the tobacco use, and will stop the propensity.
Fourth social problem
Youth committing Suicide: Suicide is purposeful conveyed toward oneself demonstrations that end in death(“suicide,” Compton’s). After an arrangement of traumatic occasions, ordinary adapting capacities could be pushed over the edge; the result may be suicide. In every year, a normal of 30,000 suicide passing happen in the World. It is evaluated that 5,000 of those suicides are submitted by teenagers. One real reason that the suicide rate among adolescents is so high, is that the adolescent years are a time of hullabaloo. New social parts are, no doubt adapted, new connections are, no doubt created, substantial progressions are happening, and choices about what’s to come are, no doubt made throughout the high school years. Adolescents have a tendency to submit suicide after extensive progressions, huge misfortunes, or ill-use has happened in their lives (Helen, et al 22). An essential change seeing someone, or self-perception may help a young people’s propensity to submit suicide. The passing of a friend or family member, the departure of an esteemed relationship, and the misfortune of self-regard are some critical misfortunes which may be a component in teenager suicide. Saw ill-use, for example, physical, enthusiastic, mental, sexual, social ill-use or disregard can prompt self-murder. Critical changes, misfortunes, and ill-use can advertise self-destructive inclinations.
Few self-destructive individuals have some kind of wretchedness, yet the individuals who have one could be incited to submit suicide. There are two fundamental sorts of dejection endured by self-destructive people. The main sort is sensitive misery. This sort of dejection is the response of a troublesome and frequently traumatic experience. Endogenous wretchedness is the second sort of discouragement. It is the consequence of an emotional sickness which is diagnosable by an expert. Some self-destructive individuals have a combo of both sensitive sorrow and endogenous melancholy. Others could have dejection, which is undiagnosed
Fifth Social Problem
Abortion is a developing issue in the world among ladies and their entitlement to recreate youngsters. Pretty nearly one to three million abortion s are carried out every year. Ladies get abortion s for some reasons, for example, for assault, adolescent pregnancy and wellbeing reasons. Assault is one of numerous reasons that cause ladies to pick abortion to end their pregnancies. What to do about their pregnancy is required, albeit numerous or them felt they were completion a life (Tajfel 13). They are insightful enough to know how they would treat their illegitimate tyke. They loathe their attacker, and stress that in the event that they kept their children, they would abhor their kids for helping them to remember such a frightful time. Junior ladies somewhere around 15 and 19 record for no less than 5 million abortion s consistently – 1 million of them in the World. Truth be told, one of each five pregnancies happens to a young lady. In circumstances like this, some individuals are certain that they could deal with the youngster, while others realize that they are not primed or develop enough to take so many obligations.
Much of the time the youngster would have nobody to depend on however a single parent with no educating, and possibly a non-strong crew. He or she would have a curved, hopeless childhood, left helpless further down the road. An alternate reason that causes ladies decision abortion is wellbeing issue. There is an extent of problem, including the tyke being conceived with Down’s Syndrome, Cystic Fibrosis, or a demeanor to corpulence, which can further down the road reason stopped up courses and heart disappointment. In an alternate case, individuals should frequently settle on decision between sparing the mother, as of now a working part of pop culture, or giving her a chance to die to attempt and spare the child. Taking everything into account, for any pregnant lady, settling on a choice to prematurely end her tyke is terrible and heartless, yet under certain circumstance, for example, assault, youthful age and wellbeing reasons, a lady would decide to end her pregnant by fetus removal.

Fight against Obesity
In this assignment about APRNs role in fighting obesity, I have chosen the article by the title “Obese parents influence children’s weight”. The article is available at http://www.ucirvinehealth.org/health-library/content/?contentTypeID=1&contentID=713. The article summarizes the influence that obese parents have on their children’s weight gain. In addition, the article provides useful statistics on the status of obesity among children. According to the article, parental factor is the leading influencer of children’s weight gain. The article also connotes that about eighty percent of children with obese or overweight parents are likely to be obese in their adulthood. The link is due to the role of genes and lifestyle on weight gain. The article cites the CDC in agreeing that; even though obesity can be managed by regulating diet and lifestyle, it proves a bit hard to manage obesity in predisposed children. In addition, the current generation of children has recorded a tremendous decrease in activity levels, a factor likely to predispose them to obesity and uncontrolled weight gain.
I have selected this article because of the inspiration that the fight for weight gain in innocent beings, like children gives me. When a child is gaining weight, they are not in a position to understand the danger they are exposing themselves. The parents are in the best position to protect their children from unnecessary weight gain. Even though the risk due to the genetic make-up may not be controlled, the parents can control the lifestyle, and dieting habits of a child to shield the child from unnecessary weight gain. Although the blame game in who is responsible for obesity in children is a matter that is debatable, parents stand at the best position to safeguard their children from unnecessary weight gain. They determine the food the children will eat, the schools the children will attend, the activity schedules of the children, and the overall lifestyles of the children. In their practice, nurses ought to emphasize the role of parents in the fight against obesity in children.
In the fight against obesity, the advanced nurse practitioners have a big role to play. According to their curriculum and regulations, all advanced nurse practitioners are nurse leaders, who are supposed to provide leadership in terms of problem solving skills in healthcare challenges. Diabetes and unnecessary weight gain are key areas that have posed challenges in healthcare delivery. With regard to their role in the healthcare system, the advanced nurse practitioners are supposed to show competence and expertise by devising unique ways of handling this challenge.
Advanced nurse practitioners are respected for their wide base of knowledge, experience, skills, research and expertise. The society expects that such category of people provides solutions to the daunting problems in society. In this regard, the healthcare system is faced with obesity and uncontrolled weight gain as daunting challenges. The system thus expects that its expert members shall provide unique solutions to tackle these daunting challenges. In essence, the advanced nurse practitioners are expected to invent new ways and procedures of handling the problem of obesity. The APRNs are also very much respected for the role they play as educators. With the current challenge of obesity that is facing the system, the advanced nurse practitioners are supposed to teach other nurses on new ways to handle the challenge. In addition, the APRNs should invest heavily in research, in order to discover new knowledge in the area of diabetes.

Executive Summary
It is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore the benefits of forecasting Better forecasts are becoming more and more important for the successful strategic planning of governments due to increased turbulence in world conditions. Based on their position, sector forecasters need in-depth knowledge of the countries key performance indicators. This report intends to show the key performance indicators as driven by the various sector players. This document reports on the findings of the UK public sector debt run, UK Households’ expenditure on clothing and UK’s Employment of over 16s.Forecasting ways have various properties, thereby the forecaster is faced with a trade of between requirements verses excellence. The major findings are that…………… No forecasting method is found to be superior from a theoretical standpoint, and the optimal method for forecasting therefore depends on the situation in which it is applied. Public sector challenges and differences makes it impossible to forecast with a standardized set of indicators, and the various industry specification indicators are needed to forecast each industry. Indicators must be chosen on the foundation of subjective information of experimental relations, or industry sequence theories. Forecasting with the same method in all the sectors seems realistic. Finally it is concluded that………………… the main recommendations being ………………………
Introduction
In the new global economy, forecasting has become a central issue for economists one measure of governments’ performance in managing the public finances is the level of public sector debt. CITATION Huh98 l 1033 (Huh, 1998) The description and responsibilities for debt degrees have varied all through the period. This note will set to provide the three year forecast as regards the UK public sector debt run, UK household expenditure on clothing and UK employment of over 16 this will be guided by the historical analysis of the previous year’s data. It will set out the history of the data and explain the current arrangements. The report will show the forecast for the next period by analyzing the captured data. The majority of debt financing is through central government issues of government securities (gilts) and treasury bills CITATION mos04 l 1033 (mostaghimi, 2004) The UK Government has the Sustainable Investment Rule as one of its two main guidance principles. this report will also show and delve on both the regional and country based variations in the amount households spent on clothing. And also attempt to draw the UK employment of over 16 it will use simple ARIMA/ARIMAX models to examine the leading indices’ predictive performance for real .The report will cover the following areas. The UK’s Public Sector Net Debt, using a multiple regression model. The UK Households’ expenditure on clothing , using a Time Series Decomposition model and The UK’s Employment of over 16s using an ARIMA/ARMAX model.
Economic Indicators
Telling by its name, this is data on an economic activity that can be able to indicate something about another economic activity. This concept was put forth by Burns and Mitchell in the 1930’s, Burns and Mitchell made a list of indicators that they meant could predict the economy however The list has been revised several times since its creation, but with very little changes in it The idea behind the method then, is to find the activity that serves as a cause in a relationship and use it to predict the effect CITATION ell05 l 1033 (ellis, 2005)The UK’s Public Sector Net Debt
Mitchell, (2014) in his book the economic outlook describes public sector debt run as the United Kingdom National Debt as the total quantity of money borrowed by the Government of the United Kingdom at any one time through the issue of securities by the British Treasury and other government agencies (Mitchell), (2014)
Recent History of UK National Debt
As described in the historical national debt (2013), after a period of financial restraint, from mid 1990s, public sector debt at a % of GDP fell to 29% of GDP by 2002. From 2002 – 2007, national debt increased to 37 % of GDP. This increase in debt levels occurred despite the long period of economic expansion; it was primarily due to the government’s decision to increase spending on health and education there has also been a marked rise in social security spending. From the years 2008 the public sector national debt has arisen by a sharp margin because: (historical national debt), (2013).
The 2008-13 recession (lower tax receipts, higher spending on unemployment benefits) the recession particularly hit stamp duty (falling house prices) income tax and lower corporation tax. CITATION pkl01 l 1033 (p.klein, 2001)These cyclical factors have also exposed an underlying structural deficit. (deficit caused by spending greater than tax, ignoring cyclical factors)
Financial bailout financial institutions and especially banks
The UK National Debt since 1900 can be seen below.
Figure 1: National Debt since 1922 Source: HM Treasury and UK Public Spending.These graphs depict that government debt as a % of GDP has been higher in the past. And especially after the two world wars. CITATION Moo04 l 1033 (Moore, 2004) The suggestion is that UK debt is manageable compared to the early 1950s. However, in the current climate, the UK wouldn’t be able to borrow the same as in the past. For example, private sector saving is much lower, and bigger financial markets wouldn’t give UK big loan like in the 1950s.
Multiple regression modelTechpedia explains multiple regressions as a statistical tool used to derive the value of a criterion from several other independent, or predictor, variables. It is the simultaneous combination of multiple factors to assess how and to what extent they affect a certain outcome.the model for multiple linear regression, given n observations, is yi = 0 + 1xi1 + 2xi2 + … pxip + i for i = 1,2, … n.
Data analysis
The UK Households’ expenditure on clothing
This depicts the expenditure patterns of households in the UK The Family CITATION man94 l 1033 (anderson, 1994)Expenditure Survey has been aa long-running uninterrupted survey, carried out by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), through applying a random sample of households drawn from every country in the United Kingdom the Interviews take place in about 7000 households every year, and involve all ‘spenders’ over the age of 16. The overall response rate is 70 per cent. each spender is asked to complete an expenditure diary over a two week period. Respondents are asked to note in the diary every single item, which they have bought, and to record if a credit card was used to make the purchase. This analysis helps tacticians decide how to best forecast and will also be applicable in this report for this is the key for analyzing the data
Time Series Methods
The fact that majority of forecasting relies or is based on time series, the time series methods apply the concept that events that happened in the past in past time series will certainly reoccur in the future. The methods described in this section were not created as forecasting methods, but rather they have been used ad as monitoring tools CITATION nie94 l 1033 (klein, 1994)However, all of them are able to give some relevant forecasting insights. Additionally, the methods can be applied on the time series of an indicator in to predict the future behavior of the indicator, which may open the chance for a long-run forecast of the economic activity that the indicator forecasts.
The time series decomposition model can be described as below
The Trend that reflects the long term progression of the series
the Cyclical Component that describes repeated but non-periodic fluctuations
the Seasonal Component reflecting (seasonal variation)
The Irregular Component that describes random, irregular influences
Data analysis
The UK’s Employment of over 16s (MGRZ)
This represents the number of people in employment these are people in employment consists of age 16 and over who do paid work (as an employee or self-employed), those who have a job that they are away temporarily, those on government-supported training and employment programs, and those doing unpaid family work. Employment levels and rates are published each month in the Labor Market Statistical Bulletin. Estimates are presented by age, by sex and for full-time, part-time, and temporary workers. Employment levels measure the total number of people estimated to be in employment while employment rates allow changes in the labor market to be interpreted in a wider context by allowing for changes in the population. The measure of employment for the UK is the employment rate for those aged between 16 and 64.
Estimates of employment are also available for Government Office Regions (GORs) and at local area level. Regional estimates of total employment are measured by the LFS while more disaggregated regional employment estimates and local area estimates are measured by the Annual Population Survey (APS). Estimates of employment levels and rates for the UK are available from 1971. The theory of employment lies on the supply side of the labor market structure, as it measures those people who supply their labor.
The ARIMA/ARMAX model
According to CITATION Chr13 l 1033 (Baum, 2013) he Describes the arima model as a theoretic linear univariate time series model which expresses that series in terms of three sets of parameters:
