Korean Family Counseling Therapy
According to the American Counseling Association (ACA), the codes have been designed to help counselors guide people in their development throughout their lives by enhancing trust and understanding of the client’s diverse cultural background. For instance, ACA B.1.a on Multicultural Considerations guides counselors to be sensitive to the cultural meanings and views of the clients in respect to the on-going discussions. In addition, the code encourages the counselors to careful about the information he is sharing with the client so that it does not lead to distortion of the message being conveyed. Considering the Korean family that was undergoing anxiety disorder, the daughter was critical about the counselors American origin. She was pessimistic that he did not understand their Korean culture very well and might not understand her anxiety clearly and help her out. As a competent counselor, it was appropriate to enlighten the daughter that she was living in a closed culture which did not give her a window of opportunity to seek for her destiny. From Luke 14:26-27, the counselor cautiously explained to the daughter the importance of respecting her parents even if she needed some level of independence. The counselor also reveals that she was struggling to get into a relationship, but the she was tied to their cultural boundaries (American Counseling Association, 2014).
Mark 10:6-9 gives a clear explanation that she was entitled to her life of her outside to the family boundaries. The bible teaching encourages her to seek for a relationship without fear since as a person becomes an adult, she should seek out for her soul-mate. She should not live in fear of her parent’s reactions especially when she engages in a relationship with someone outside their Korean culture. The American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) codes provides a comprehensive guideline for the rights and the welfare of individuals in families who seek for the counseling therapy. For instance, the counselors confined counseling professionalism to code AAMFT 2.6 on Confidentiality in Consultation. Having been a family counselor for the past five weeks, he had the consent for confidentiality from the family. the therapist used the guideline to conduct separate and private session with the daughter to help her understand the importance of considering her life priorities looking for a soul mate. The code allows the counselor to hold a private talk and enlighten her to think about her the importance of getting into an intimate relationship. The code also reminds the counselor to consider her cultural origin (American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, 2012).
The International Association For Marriage and Family Counselors (IAMFC) also gives an elaborate guiding principle that apply the family counseling therapy. The code IAMFC VI.H advises family counselors to be cautious when holding sessions by considering their cultural backgrounds. It advisors the counselor to check for symptomatic reactions that might result from misunderstandings because of the varying culture of the counselor and the client. From the counseling session, it was important as a counselor to note that the daughter was reluctant heed the advice. The daughter had developed the perception that the counselor having the an American culture, the counseling therapy could not free her from the ropes of the Korean culture. With a stroke of intelligence, the counselor back up his proposition by invoking the biblical teachings. It was in the interest of the daughter to understand she was mature to express the need to have a life that was independent of her family’s influence (International Association For Marriage and Family Counselors, 2014).

I have an elastic demand on Colgate toothpaste. Before changing the price of a particular brand of toothpaste, I will greatly consider the price of other brands of toothpastes in the industry as well as the extent of effect due to anticipated price change. I would therefore ensure that price of my brand is within the industry range and will also let the market mechanisms to dictate my company’s brand prices (Taylor & Weerapana, 2012).
Butter and margarine are the two goods whose cross price elasticity is greater than one because they are substitutes. I will ensure that Butter does not rise in price above margarine at all as a manager. Furthermore, I would slightly decrease the price of butter as a strategy of having a competitive edge against margarine. This will increase the demand for butter while reducing the demand for margarine at the same time because both butter and margarine have positive value for their cross-price elasticity (Taylor & Weerapana, 2012).
A good where my income elasticity of demand is greater than one is an iPhone. If my earnings increase I will go for an iPhone while if my income is low I would not by an iPhone. Definitely, the higher the income the more people will buy iPhones and the lower the income the lower the demand of iPhones (Taylor & Weerapana, 2012). As a manager I would use the information to estimate the effects of changes in economic activity such that during the periods of expansion when the incomes are rising, I will increase the supply of iPhones. I would take into consideration the changes in income while doing business forecasting. It is an important tool for marketing and marketing strategy because people demand iPhones as per the level of their income.

Open the simulation:
https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/coulombs-law/latest/coulombs-law_en.htmlClick on the “Macro Scale” box. It will open the simulation.
Familiarize yourself with the simulation. Play around with the settings, change the magnitude of the charges, the distance between the charges, and observe how the magnitude and direction of the force change. When you are finished testing all the settings, click on the orange reset button.
Step 1: Set change 1 to +4µC and charge 2 to +8µC. Set the distance “r” between the charges to 2 cm (by dragging one or both charges along the scale, e.g. if charge 1 is at 4 cm mark and charge 2 at 6 cm mark, the distance between them r = 2 cm = 0.02 m, remember 1 m = 100 cm). Record the magnitude of charges (in coulombs, remember that 1µC = 10-6C), the distance between them (in meters), and the magnitude of the force in the table on the next page.
Notice that the force of q1 on q2 is the same as that of q2 on q1. Also notice that the direction of the force in the simulation shows that the two charges repel each other (as you would expect since both the charges are positive).
Step 2: Keeping the charges fixed q1 = 4µC and q2 = 8 µC, change the distance between them to 3 cm or 0.03 m, record the force again in the table, along with the distance and magnitude of charges.
Step 3: Repeat step 2 for distances 4 cm, 5 cm, 6 cm, 7 cm, 8 cm, 9 cm and 10 cm. Record all the data in the table.

4 x 10-6 8 x 10-6 0.02 Step 4: Go to: https://mycurvefit.com/On the top you will see plot, and below it you will see a data table. Click on the “Clear” link to the right of the data table to clear the data.
Step 5: Use your mouse to select only the data in the last two columns of your table above (starting from 0.02, not including the heading row that has r and Force on q1 by q2), copy this data. Paste this data into the data table by clicking in the table on your mycurvefit.com browser and pressing ctrl+v on the keyboard.
It will ask you: Is your data arranged by rows or by columns? Select “By Row” and click “Next”.
Then it will ask you: Which columns contains the X-axis data? Click on the left column and click “Next”.
Finally, it will ask you: Is this correct (with all the data displayed”? Click “Apply”.
Now you should see the graph created from your data.
Take a picture of your graph (or a screenshot) and paste it in the space below.
Step 6: Click on the link “Fit Method” under the graph, from the drop down menu click on “Nonlinear” and then on “Power: y = axb”.
Now click anywhere outside the “Fit Method” menu. You will notice the fit parameters under your graph. The computer has fit your data to the function and : y = axb providing you all the fit paramters, like R2:1, aR2:1 etc.
At this point we are only interested in the fit function that is given on the third line under the graph. It should be something like y = 0.1876x^-1.56. Write down this function in the space below:
y =
What is the coefficient (experiment): a =
What is the power (experiment):b =
In 1785, French physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb discovered that the force between two point like charged objects with charges q1 and q2 separated by a distance r is given by:
F=kq1q2r2We call it Coulomb’s law.
In our fit above to the data that we collected; x represents r the distance. So, if you compare the fit function above to the Coulomb’s law, you should expect that:
The coefficient: a = keq1q2
And the power (theory):b = -2.0Use the experimental value from your fit above and the actual value from theory to calculate the percent error. Show all your work below.
% error= btheory-b(experiment)b(theory) x 100
% error= ______________
Now since: a = kq1q2 and you know the value of coefficient a from the fit above, and the charges are fixed throughout the experiment, i.e. q1 = 4 x 10-6 C, and q2 = 8 x 10-6 C, use all these values to find the value of the Coulomb’s constant ke, using the equation below. Show all your work:
a = kq1q2k (experiment) =
Actual value of k is: k (actual) = 9 x 109
Use the experimental value from your fit above and the actual value from theory to calculate the percent error. Show all your work below.
% error= kactual-k(experiment)k(atual) x 100
% error= ______________
