, A research scenario is provided below followed by a discussion of the research
project. Read the scenario and then assess the discussion by answering the
assignment questions.
The research scenario:
The research company …
You own a consultation company specialising in social science research. The
company is called PsyCom. You employ a number of social scientists and
professional psychologists, but there are also student researchers who do their
practical at the company.
Meeting the client …
You have been contacted by Dr Lukele, the director of the Employee Wellness
Division of a company called PTA Steelworks to help him solve a problem. You set
up a meeting with Dr Lukele.
According to Dr Lukele HIV/AIDS is becoming a serious problem for the company.
The average number of days of sick leave taken per employee has been increasing
over the last five years and is now reaching alarming proportions. The rise in sick
leave taken is associated with HIV/AIDS related ailments. Therefore, the company
now decided to implement an HIV/AIDS Awareness and Support programme
(HASP). The programme is to be implemented throughout the company at all work
levels. To save costs they bought an existing programme (the least costly one they
could find) and tailored it to suite the specific needs of PTS Steelworks. They are
ready to implement the amended programme but would like to get a research
consultancy company such as PsyCom on board to assess the impact of the
programme. They are hoping that the programme will improve employees’ conduct
with regard to HIV.
Discussing the client’s problem …
At PsyCom every day begins with project meetings to discuss the business of the
day. These meetings are attended by social scientists and psychologists working for
the company as well as student researchers. This morning you chair the PTA
Steelworks project meeting to introduce and discuss the study with the project team.
The team consists of two qualified psychologists, Boshadi and Peter, and three
student researchers, Irene, Lesiba and Kobus.
The assignment consists of 25 questions. These questions reflect the discussion. In
each case you have to decide who you agree most with, who second most with and
who least with.
