Answer: . Clicker training is a great training technique that rewards your dog for good behavior. Start by clicking and giving the dog a treat. Do this a few times until the dog expects a treat when it hears the click. Then ask your dog to do something it knows how to do, such as sit or get its favorite toy. Click and give the dog a treat.  Continue to click when your dog does something you like and provide a treat. Once it learns how the clicker works, you can use clicker training to teach new skills. You can use clicker training to reinforce good behavior or to train your dog to obey commands. You can find a clicker at a pet store or online. accept things it fears. Counter conditioning uses something your dog loves to help it get used to the thing it hates. For example, you might feed the dog next to one of its triggers or place its favorite toy next to it. At first, you need to place the item far away from the trigger, but close enough that the dog is aware of the trigger. As the dog gets used to being near the trigger, slowly move the good thing closer until it’s on top of or next to the trigger. For example, if your dog is afraid of the vacuum cleaner, you could place its food in a room with the vacuum cleaner. As your dog gets more comfortable, move the food closer and closer until it’s on top of the vacuum. egun making progress. Your dog should feel safe with you and in its new home. Desensitization may be an option after your dog has responded well to clicker training or counter-conditioning. In fact, desensitization and counter-conditioning work well together.  To desensitize your dog, identify your dog’s trigger. Choose the one you’d like to focus on, and then expose the dog to the trigger in a safe environment. Your dog should be exposed for 5 minutes at a time. Start by placing the item far away but where the dog can see it, and reward the dog for tolerating it. Over time, move the trigger closer to the dog until it gets used to it.  When using desensitization, make sure your dog does not encounter the trigger when you aren’t doing a training session. In extreme cases, your vet can prescribe medication to help your dog stay calm. If your dog’s fears are preventing it from making any progress or are interfering with your dog’s life, it may be an option. Talk to your vet for more information.  These medications are often similar to anti-anxiety medications that humans would take. Medications are not a replacement for behavioral training and socialization. It may take a few weeks for the medication to start taking effect. Continue with your dog's conditioning and training schedule.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Do not make a rash decision. Ask questions. Tell your dentist you are nervous about the procedure. Explore sedation options.

Answer: If you are in the dentist’s chair for another procedure and they recommend you get a root canal and that you can or should do it right then — don’t. Never make a decision under duress unless absolutely necessary. Tell your dentist you’d like to discuss it either after your current appointment or at a later date after you’ve had time to think about and research the procedure. There may be some cases when there is no other solution, especially if you have been in pain for several days, and you will not want to postpone treatment. Once you’ve had time to think and do research, nothing can give you more peace of mind during and after a root canal than knowing exactly how your dentist views the procedure and what they plan on doing. Have your questions ready and have them answered before you’re sitting in the dentist’s chair. Questions can include a wide variety of topics, such as:  Is the procedure absolutely necessary? Can the tooth recover without a root canal procedure? Should you (the dentist) do this procedure, or should I have a specialist do it? How many appointments will I need to make? Will I be able to return to work that day? The next day? How much will it cost? What will happen if I don’t get a root canal? Will the infection spread? Will my tooth break? How urgent is my situation? Can it wait a month? Does it need to be done immediately? Are there alternate methods currently available to fix/heal my tooth? What happens if the bacteria is not 100% removed before the tooth is sealed? If the pain scares you, be honest and upfront about it. Their office and assistants can make the experience as positive and comforting as possible It’s possible that your anxiety at the thought of going to the dentist can be more severe than just being uncomfortable or nervousness. If you suffer from a more acute anxiety, there are four types of sedation used by dentists today to help ease or eliminate that condition. In three cases, these methods also require a local anesthetic to provide pain relief during the procedure. The types of sedation are:  Oral sedatives. These can be taken anywhere from the night before the procedure to 30 – 60 minutes prior. These are to relieve anxiety prior to an injection of local anesthetic to alleviate pain. Intravenous (IV) sedation. These relieve anxiety in the same way as an oral sedative. An injection of local anesthetic before the procedure is required to alleviate pain. Nitrous oxide sedation. This gas (aka laughing gas) is a conscious inhalation sedation that produces a state of relaxation. An injection of local anesthetic is given simultaneously for pain elimination. General anesthesia. This is the use of an anesthetic to produce unconsciousness. There is no need for a local anesthetic as the patient is unconscious.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Create a five column data table. Enter the data values for your measured data. Calculate a regression line. Calculate predicted values from the regression line.

Answer:
Any statistical work is generally made easier by having your data in a concise format. A simple table serves this purpose very well. To calculate the standard error of estimate, you will be using five different measurements or calculations. Therefore, creating a five-column table is helpful. Label the five columns as follows:  x{\displaystyle x} y{\displaystyle y} y′{\displaystyle y^{\prime }} y−y′{\displaystyle y-y^{\prime }} (y−y′)2{\displaystyle (y-y^{\prime })^{2}} Note that the table shown in the image above performs the opposite subtractions, y′−y{\displaystyle y^{\prime }-y}. The more standard order, however, is y−y′{\displaystyle y-y^{\prime }}. Because the values in the final column are squared, the negative is not problematic and will not change the outcome. Nevertheless, you should recognize that the more standard calculation is y−y′{\displaystyle y-y^{\prime }}. After collecting your data, you will have pairs of data values. For these statistical calculations, the independent variable is labeled x{\displaystyle x} and the dependent, or resulting, variable is y{\displaystyle y}. Enter these values into the first two columns of your data table.  The order of the data and the pairing is important for these calculations. You need to be careful to keep your paired data points together in order. For the sample calculations shown above, the data pairs are as follows:  (1,2) (2,4) (3,5) (4,4) (5,5) Using your data results, you will be able to calculate a regression line. This is also called a line of best fit or the least squares line. The calculation is tedious but can be done by hand. Alternatively, you can use a handheld graphing calculator or some online programs that will quickly calculate a best fit line using your data.  For this article, it is assumed that you will have the regression line equation available or that it has been predicted by some prior means. For the sample data set in the image above, the regression line is y′=0.6x+2.2{\displaystyle y^{\prime }=0.6x+2.2}. Using the equation of that line, you can calculate predicted y-values for each x-value in your study, or for other theoretical x-values that you did not measure. Using the equation of the regression line, calculate or “predict” values of y′{\displaystyle y^{\prime }} for each value of x. Insert the x-value into the equation, and find the result for y′{\displaystyle y^{\prime }} as follows:  y′=0.6x+2.2{\displaystyle y^{\prime }=0.6x+2.2} y′(1)=0.6(1)+2.2=2.8{\displaystyle y^{\prime }(1)=0.6(1)+2.2=2.8} y′(2)=0.6(2)+2.2=3.4{\displaystyle y^{\prime }(2)=0.6(2)+2.2=3.4} y′(3)=0.6(3)+2.2=4.0{\displaystyle y^{\prime }(3)=0.6(3)+2.2=4.0} y′(4)=0.6(4)+2.2=4.6{\displaystyle y^{\prime }(4)=0.6(4)+2.2=4.6} y′(5)=0.6(5)+2.2=5.2{\displaystyle y^{\prime }(5)=0.6(5)+2.2=5.2}
