Strong And Weak Identifiers
According to the author, national identity is inherently social and is centered on people's strong bond and sense of community with their fellow group
members. People are placed into national groups either by choice or by default. The strength of the person's membership depends on the level of
commitment they feel towards the national group. The level of commitment divides group members into strong and weak identifiers. Group members
of a national group that care about the group's well–being are considered strong identifiers. These members are strongly committed and often see their
national group membership as part of their sense of self. Strong identifiers hold and follow group norms so they can be the best prototype for their
national identity. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Strong identifiers are treated more fairly when they are seen as the prototype of the group. Their opinions about their group are highly valued and taken
into consideration between all of the members. Because of their high commitment to their group, strong identifiers remain loyal though hard times and
times of doubt. They want to protect the group's image by focusing on the positive aspects. When faced with negative information about their group,
these members will defend their group's actions and criticisms in order to protect the group image.
Group members do not tolerate weak identifier's criticisms. Their criticisms of their group are often not listened to and disregarded by members who
have stronger commitments. This could be because weak identifiers do not share the same level of loyalty as strong identifiers. Weak identifiers care
less about the groups image and do not feel a strong need to defend the group.
I consider myself a strong identifier in being an American. I would say that I fit the typical stereotype of an American. I support the choices Americans
make and remain loyal even through the bad decisions. When natural disasters or unexpected tragedies happen in America, I feel instant empathy
towards everyone that was effected, even if I have never met them. I see every American and myself as one big community. Being an American has
always been a part of my identity and I couldn't

Mindfulness Activity Report
Purpose of the Activity: SOS is a mindfulness exercise that can be used to increase internal awareness of group members. It emphasizes staying present
in the current moment and can be used to ground a group. Over time this mindfulness exercise can help to teach group members how their environment
impacts them and how to address their "triggers". The facilitator encourages the group members to use the mindfulness activity to observe and describe
their surroundings and feelings without judging them. Population: This activity can be used in almost any population. It has been known to be
effective in groups that focus on trauma, but can also be utilized in less high stress situations. The facilitator can easily make this activity more kids
friendly by speaking using terms that they understand. When to Use This Activity: SOS can be utilized at any point during the group process. It is

Ask them to notice their surroundings (ie– feel the air, listen to their heartbeat, notice their feet touching the floor). Have them think about where they
are right now (ie– what building, what room, where in the room), and draw their attention to the date and time. Self Check: Ask the group internally to
rate themselves on a scale of distress. 1 being completely calm and 10 being completely distressed. Then have them rate their feeling of control on a
1–10 scale. 1 being completely in control and 10 being completely out of control. Reflect: This step is optional, based on the purpose of the group
and the time allotted for this activity. Go around the group and ask each member if they would like to share their numbers. This allow group
members to express how they are feeling without having to use "feeling" words. It also helps the group facilitator know how where the group is as a

Assessment 2: Conducting a research study
The effects of coffee on reaction time in a group of Swinburne nursing students
Abstract
This experiment studied the effects of caffeine on the reaction time of a number of students. It was done with 12 individuals who all selected their own
source of caffeine to use for the testing. The three main caffeine sources were V energy drink, coffee and red bull. The reaction times of these students
were recorded before and after drinking the caffeine in order to obtain results on the effect that caffeine had on the individual. This was done by using
an online reaction test where students were to click on a button each time the green traffic light appeared. The results indicated significant differences
in the reaction times of the students' pre and post caffeine intake. Therefore, the experiment showed that caffeine did have an impact on the reaction
time of the student after consuming caffeine. This report allows comparison of the mean scores of the 12 groups using tables and graphs to clearly
indicate the differentiation of each result.

Whitney volunteered to be the recorder and the other pod members agreed. We did not obtain the opportunity to review the information that Whitney

structure. The importance of time to effective group work practice needs to be understood. Often, decisions regarding the length of time for a
particular group are not made based upon research and practice wisdom, but are formed in relation to trends and "fads". While time–limited methods
have been shown to be effective for many typed of populations and problems, there are some needs which require longer term groups" (Mesbur,

Why Do We Need to Understand Group Dynamics to Understand...
I.Introduction To understand Organizational Behavior and Management, we must study three different levels. The first is the individual level, because
every individual has its own unique perception of the world and what surrounds him. Individuals behave following how they interpret this and their
environment. Each individual is different from the next one, because of its personality and characteristics. However, it's possible to organize them by
categorizing their perceptions. Categories such as Appearance, Social behavior and Status are often considered. Individual's motivations must be
analyzed to understand the next level : the Group. A Group is composed by 2 or more individuals, who come together to accomplish a particular task or
... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
If members are attracted to the group because they like members of the group, or the group activities/goals or just because it fills a need for
affiliation, they are more likely to be productive. The size of the group also has an influence on the group's performance. According to recent
research, medium sized groups of 5 to 7 people seem to have the higher performance in organizations. If the group is smaller, there's a chance it can
highlight the individual differences and harm the group cohesiveness. If group are too large, people tend to work more by themselves ("Free riding")
rather than with the whole group, or create smaller teams within the group. c)Group norms. Norms are acceptable standards of behavior within a
group that are shared by the members of the group. Norms define the limits of what is acceptable and what is not in terms of behavior. They are
typically imagined in order to facilitate group survival, make behavior more predictable, avoid embarrassing situations, and express the values of the
group. Each group will establish its own set of norms that may determine anything from the appropriate clothes to wear at a dinner to how many
comments to make in a meeting. Groups pressure members to force them to conform to the group's standards. The norms often reflect the level of
commitment, motivation, and performance of the group. The majority of the members of the group must agree that the norms are appropriate

Reflective Reflection : Reflective Thinking
This self–reflection will incorporate the 4R's model of reflective thinking in order for my reflections to be properly structured. The overall group
project was a good experience for me, and provided me a great opportunity to work with people from different cultures. Although these people were
from different cultures, I knew each group member before this assignment and had worked with the majority of them previously. Therefore, I
respected all the group member's and the skills, strengths and weaknesses they brought to our group. Because of my established relationship with all
members, I felt that I was able to be honest in my assessment of their work without being perceived as bossy or creating conflict. The aim for all of
us was to do very well in this assignment, so our group established a clear idea of outcomes and quality of work.
While these positive experiences made the group project easier to complete. There are still challenges that we faced as a group. One main issue was
that several group members failed to meet deadlines that the group had set. This is relevant because we as a group needed all involved to finish their
individual parts in order to for their work to be read to implemented into the report. Failing to submit individual parts on time makes it more difficult for
me to trust group members. This is a common issue that has happened in almost every group assignment I have undertaken. I found that communication

Naturalistic Observation Of Student 's A Coffee Line
Naturalistic Observation of Student's in a Coffee Line In the United States, 85% of adults own a cell phone, with 18 to 24 year olds texting the
most (Zickuhr, 2011). Of these adults, 67% reported that they check their phone even if they do not hear it ringing, 44% sleep with the phone beside
their bed, and 29% reported they could not live without their cell phone (Smith, 2012). In addition, according to the Baylor University report, studies
show that young adults check their phone an average of 60 times a day. This study examined cell phone use among university students that were
alone and in a group. Specifically, we were interested in observing whether students alone in a coffee line or students in a group in a coffee line, spent
more or less time on their cell phone. We were also interested to observe ifgender affected cell phone usage and whether males or females were more
likely to be in a group. The purpose of this study was to determine if university students that are alone spend more or less time on their phone than
students that are in a group. We also examined if gender was an important factor on whether a student was in a group or alone. Using naturalistic
observation, we calculated the amount of time individual students were on their phone per three minute time interval. The hypothesis was that students
alone in a coffee line would spend the most time on their phone. We also predicted that women were more likely than men to be in a group.

The Importance Of Communicating And People Understand...
Communication has always been a up and down aspect in my life. I believe communicating is the purpose of receiving and giving information to
others, but I also believe that communicating is a way of expressing yourself to the rest of the world. I do understand that others have greater levels of
communicating and people understand communication differently. I have experienced both of these aspects of communication in groups I have been
part of. Personally, I prefer to work in a group setting rather than as an individual. I like the support, experiences, and even friendships that evolve
from group work. I believe that group communication helps to create a memorable and positive outcome for the task rather than doing it
independently. I have been apart of many "groups" throughout my high school and college years and I have enjoyed and learned many different
things from each one. One group in particular in which I learned a lot and was able to gain many skills was from my "core group". I was a New
Student Orientation Assistant (NSOA) when entering my sophomore year at Eastern. NSOAs assist the new students with their transition to Eastern.
There were over 150 of us students that were divided into core groups. I was with my core group for five days and with them throughout those days
for more than 12 hours. Through those long training days, we learned a lot about one another. As a group, we bonded and were able to successfully

Compare And Contrast Mongols And Aztecs
As time went on, groups changed, emerged, and disappeared. As this essay progresses, I will be comparing and contrasting the Mongols and the
Aztecs. Both of these groups were very similar, based on their war dispositions such as their views on ways to gain power and land. As both of these
groups progresses they both had many similarities, they both had just as many differences regarding their religious, war/conquest and economic views.
The Aztecs were very advanced for their time period. As many groups emerged during this time period, the Aztecs were one of the most powerful
empires of this day and age. The Aztecs were liked by many, but in turn were disliked by many others. They were mainly disliked because of their
ritual of human sacrifice. Their religious beliefs included the worship of the Sun, which they believed the Sun would rise and set only by the sacrifice
of another human. The Mongols on the other hand, had first started as pagan and then converted to Islamic beliefs. The Aztecs were also monotheistic
where the Mongols had many different religions throughout their empire. This caused the Aztecs to be a more unified group, unlike the Mongols, who
became more separated and divided by religion. The similarities between these two groups based on religion, were that they did not destroy other
groups based on religion. Another difference between the Mongols and the Aztecs were their views on conquests and wars. ... Show more content on

based on the Likert Scale. The first question asked whether their estimations matched those of the app; the second question asked whether they were
surprised with the results; the last one, questioned their likeliness of changing their cellphone use. The control group, on the other hand, only

follow it. There are two specific articles that were chosen today; one of which from the Chicago Sun Times website, and the other from the New York
Times. The issues following gun control have been very outrageous in my opinion. Let us talk about the city of Chicago, for instance. Chicago is
known for its dangers. Being one of the most dangerous cities throughout the entire United States of America, gun violence has been a major issue
over the years. As much as people say it will get better, things only get worse. In the Chicago Sun Times article, we take a look at how this issue was
attempted to be solved. From the year of 2013 until present day, more than 7,000 weapons were collected each year. Chicago, to most people, is
considered to be the murder capital of the U.S. Most of the murders were committed by guns. This is extremely sad, because think about all of the
innocent lives that were taken; mothers, children, you name it. One of the main things that contribute to most of the gun violence is the fact that the
city of Chicago has many gangs. Gang members will do everything and anything they can to make sure they hurt their rivals, regardless of the outcome.

An example of this was during the design specification stage of the project. The group ended up getting very low scores because of the way the
project was carried out. The work was not evenly shared out between the group members and all group members did not meet up regularly to see
who had done which stage of the project. One group member ended up doing most of the task including the story design, the Entity relationship
diagram, most of the use case descriptions and the structured English because the other group members did not understand how to do these part of
the projects. This led to the group getting very low scores in all these sections as the individual who carried out most of the tasks was not able to
fully focus on each section and develop them to an adequate level. This could have been avoided if the group had planned the project well because
the weaknesses of individual members could have been discussed earlier and the person who understood the work could have showed the other
members of the group how to carry out the various task they did not understand and this would have helped the group avoid failing this stage of the

with completing the project at the start of the project a list of work was set out from the requirements, and then each member of the group picked the
tasks that they could complete for the year. The main reason such a free and unstructured... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Another problem is that this method requires everyone to have high motivation if they want to complete the project to a high standard and a as the
group is small a few unmotivated people can bring the whole project down. The group did have motivation problems during the middle of the project
with some group members not producing any work. The motivation could have been reduced if the work been assigned one at a time instead of all at
the start allowing people to focus on one thing at a time and seeing the list of work get smaller.
A problem with using this flat management with free development is that there are not a lot of examples to follow with many companies using agile. It
seems that this flat management is new to the games industry and so the group might make some mistakes that others can learn from in the future who
want to use the same structure. There are however some companies that do, valve uses a flat management structure and so does Chucklefish games
(Bithell , Sliwinski, & Orlowski , 2016)(18:25–19:00). At Chucklefish the flat management works well as there is a small team of people who are all

Support Group That I Had Been At The Same Time
For this assignment I chose to go to a support group that I had been to before. I chose to do this because I wanted to see what would change or what
the differences, were between this time and the first time I had went to this meeting. This assignment was very interesting and very difficult for me at
the same time. The main reason it was so difficult for me, was I still am not driving too often. So this setback gave me more hurtles to jump over and
through, just so I could get to a meeting. Because of this I really struggled trying to find a support group that would actually allow me to attended
meetings at the times were people were available to drive me. Then once again it hit me, like before, I finely asked my friend if her mother who is a
nurse could help me out. My friend's mother said yes. She knew of a caregiver group a caregiver group for cancer and was even willing to drive me to
the group. The only terms were that I would feel out a paper saying I agreed to the conditions of the group. And the information shard in the meeting
at no circumstances was to be talked about outside the group. For this assignment I attended the Cancer Caregivers Support Group in the clinical
center at Froedtert Hospital. The meeting took place on October 22nd 2016 at night 5:30pm to 7:00pm at night. This caregiver group was a group of

Ethnic Minority Disadvantages
30th Mar 2015
Research exploring differences between ethnic groups in labour market participation and employment status for those in work.
Ethnic minority disadvantage in the labour market
This research explores differences between ethnic groups in labour market participation (unemployment, employment and hours worked) and
employment status (low, mid and high skilled occupation levels) for those in work.
It examines whether there is 'clustering' into particular occupations for some ethnic groups, and looks at how much geography matters for employment
and job status for different ethnic groups.
This paper finds that:
In terms of unemployment, the overwhelming picture is one of continuing ethnic minority disadvantage compared with the White British majority
group;
There is a considerable difference in unemployment rates between places for each ethnic group, as well as between ethnic groups; and
Ethnic inequalities between groups have persisted over time.
Summary

Ethnic inequalities in labour market participation have persisted over time; between 2001 and 2011, there remained considerable differences between
ethnic groups in employee, self– employed, and unemployment rates. In terms of unemployment, the overwhelming picture is one of continuing ethnic

Communication Within The United States Marine Corps
To be early, is to be on time, to be on time, is to be late, and to be late, is out of the question. Being able to adhere to a given deadline in a group
situation, demonstrates responsibility, time management, group cohesion, and progress. However, being that a group is a collection of individuals
with separate lives, there are times when members of the group may be experiencing extenuating circumstances preventing the group from completing
a task on time. In such a scenario, communication within the chain of command is essential. Failing to communicate problems that may arise, and

In a military situation, lack of communication can result in the loss of lives, or failure to accomplish a goal as the power and upper hand is now in
the hands of the force that was better prepared. In our specific situation, failing to communicate issues that arise prior to assignment completion will
make the group ill prepared to deal with the burden of new assignments, and lead us subject to punishment at any time. The constant threat of
punishment, or attack from a lack of communication leads the group to be in a disorganized state and make careless mistakes out of emotion.
Secondly, communicating an issue prior to a deadline develops trust between a group and those in charge of the group. In the military this is very
apparent. In fact, the United States Marine Corps has a whole sector of marines who are trained in a skillset called communications. Comm. Marines

their interaction" (p. 400). The communicate that takes place between members of the group is group dynamic (Kozier et al, 2010). Motivation for
participation and similarity of other group members and the goals of the group will affect the group dynamic (Kozier et al, 2010). The type of group

When doing so the other group members were active listener, by using their whole body verbally and nonverbal. Like facing the speaker and
giving eye contact and try to avoided interruption. The group also acknowledges the thoughts of the speaker by giving constructive feed back. Due
to the effectiveness of the group communication, we were able to build trust, respect and understand the issues and make decision for effective
change. We illustrate this by coming together as a group one again to accomplish the goal we initially wanted to accomplish. Since the first
organization that we had chosen was incorrect, so we had to make the necessary changes to accomplish our goals. The other effective feature is the
purpose of the group. Kozier et al (2010) stated that the effective group purpose is when "goal, task, and outcomes are clarified. Understanding and
modified so that members of the group can commit themselves to purposes through cooperation" (p.401). For instance, each individual was assign a
task and knew what was to be accomplished. As group we all decided to meet at suitable day and time which was beneficial to all team members,
because we could commit to the group and focus on what needed to be achieved. Even though the group had a lot of effective features, it wasn't

The Validity Of Aphorism
There exists a common phenomenon in my high school that whenever someone forgot to bring his ruler and one of his classmates kindly lent him
once, he would probably not bring his ruler ever after and kept borrowing from other classmates. This is widely accepted as and explained by the
aphorism "Give a man an inch and he'll take a mile", which indicates that when you are generous to someone, he will demand more. In other words,
this saying points out that people are never satisfied. In fact, not only does this aphorism have implications in our daily lives, it also shed light on a
broader context in social science such as unemployment insurance policy. In order to determine the validity of this aphorism in the society today, we
could conduct an experiment targeting the college students who are randomly assigned into two groups, and examine how they would respond

Personal Reflection
In the Organizational Behavior class (BMAL 500), I took a personality test online and found out that my personality type is Extravert– Sensing–
Thinking– Judging (ESTJ), although I had a marginal preference of extraversion over introversion. Basically in certain situations I can be either an
extravert or introvert. I like structure and am very organized. I tend to cope pretty well with the stressors of life and do not allow stress to bog me
down. My supervisor would describe me as dependable. I have worked in groups many times and on many different occasions. While I was
growing up, I played many sports like soccer, basketball, football, baseball, and track. All of which required team efforts. In my current civilian
job working in the Department of Defense, there are times where an integrated product team will need to be setup in order to identify or resolve
issues related to Army Acquisition programs or providing information to Congress or Senior Executive Service personnel. In addition, I have
worked in groups in my MBA classes at Liberty Online. While working in these groups, I have generally found that everyone wants to succeed and
do well. In one of my past groups, I felt like one of the team members had a hard time following a rubric. Needless to say, our group had to
continually correct the same mistakes over and over again from that group members' submissions. No one on this Earth is perfect; however I would
expect someone to learn from previous mistakes. Notwithstanding, it is somewhat inevitable to get away from working in groups. Communication
Expectations Communication is very key while working in groups, especially one where the setting is online. Each team member should try to check
the Group Discussion Board daily. From my previous group experiences with Liberty Online, the groups I have been in have not utilized conference
calls. Communication was through online chats and emails. The Group Discussion Board should be used to submit responses, ask questions, or

tracks towards the trail. He then plays the role of backseat driver (class notes) when they reach the swamp saying, "I told you we should have kept
following the train tracks". Vern hindered the development of the group. While they could have been devoting time to the task at hand, they had to
spend time helping him with trivial things like dealing with him being scared when they are in the woods. While Vern slowed the group by challenging

to check when we have any group works due. They also mentioned to us if there was any individual homework due. These are the roles for keeping
the group on track. On the other hand, two girls were more like "task roles" and were "to help get the job done" (98). We are always divided works
for our group members to finish our group projects. We also will contact every group members before our group meetings to make sure they finish
their own works. Therefore, having different roles is the thing that we are working well. Then what is getting in the way is about our group meeting

Yes they both help the community but the Ruritan runs more on rules and how others see them in the community. Another difference is most of the
time you may communicate with the members in a lady's group more than a Ruritan outside of a meeting. This is because women like talk more than
men in most cases. Another difference is a lady's group may be close to the members because they are more open to others then men. Many times
men join a local Ruritan to help with some of the sporting activities. Here where I live our Ruritan also has horse shows to raise money for the
community. The Ruritan group may be well known outside the community because of the work that they do helping others. One of the main reasons
the media recognizes the Ruritan more than a lady's group because they have more member active in the whole community instead just surrounding the
church. When it come to the leadership of both of these have one main leader over the whole group. This person helps keeps the group working

The time increases when comparing Group A to Group B, but not Group B to Group C. The same also applies to Group C to Group D and then a

decreases in some areas, there is clear increase or RT when looking from the youngest to olderst. When looking at the graph, there isstatistical
significance in some of the areas and not in others. All data was calculated at a 95% confidence level. The difference from Group A to Group B is only

Strong And Weak Identifiers

  • 1. Strong And Weak Identifiers According to the author, national identity is inherently social and is centered on people's strong bond and sense of community with their fellow group members. People are placed into national groups either by choice or by default. The strength of the person's membership depends on the level of commitment they feel towards the national group. The level of commitment divides group members into strong and weak identifiers. Group members of a national group that care about the group's well–being are considered strong identifiers. These members are strongly committed and often see their national group membership as part of their sense of self. Strong identifiers hold and follow group norms so they can be the best prototype for their national identity. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Strong identifiers are treated more fairly when they are seen as the prototype of the group. Their opinions about their group are highly valued and taken into consideration between all of the members. Because of their high commitment to their group, strong identifiers remain loyal though hard times and times of doubt. They want to protect the group's image by focusing on the positive aspects. When faced with negative information about their group, these members will defend their group's actions and criticisms in order to protect the group image. Group members do not tolerate weak identifier's criticisms. Their criticisms of their group are often not listened to and disregarded by members who have stronger commitments. This could be because weak identifiers do not share the same level of loyalty as strong identifiers. Weak identifiers care less about the groups image and do not feel a strong need to defend the group. I consider myself a strong identifier in being an American. I would say that I fit the typical stereotype of an American. I support the choices Americans make and remain loyal even through the bad decisions. When natural disasters or unexpected tragedies happen in America, I feel instant empathy towards everyone that was effected, even if I have never met them. I see every American and myself as one big community. Being an American has always been a part of my identity and I couldn't ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 2. Mindfulness Activity Report Purpose of the Activity: SOS is a mindfulness exercise that can be used to increase internal awareness of group members. It emphasizes staying present in the current moment and can be used to ground a group. Over time this mindfulness exercise can help to teach group members how their environment impacts them and how to address their "triggers". The facilitator encourages the group members to use the mindfulness activity to observe and describe their surroundings and feelings without judging them. Population: This activity can be used in almost any population. It has been known to be effective in groups that focus on trauma, but can also be utilized in less high stress situations. The facilitator can easily make this activity more kids friendly by speaking using terms that they understand. When to Use This Activity: SOS can be utilized at any point during the group process. It is individual in nature, and therefore... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Ask them to notice their surroundings (ie– feel the air, listen to their heartbeat, notice their feet touching the floor). Have them think about where they are right now (ie– what building, what room, where in the room), and draw their attention to the date and time. Self Check: Ask the group internally to rate themselves on a scale of distress. 1 being completely calm and 10 being completely distressed. Then have them rate their feeling of control on a 1–10 scale. 1 being completely in control and 10 being completely out of control. Reflect: This step is optional, based on the purpose of the group and the time allotted for this activity. Go around the group and ask each member if they would like to share their numbers. This allow group members to express how they are feeling without having to use "feeling" words. It also helps the group facilitator know how where the group is as a whole in their level of distress and ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

If it looks as though there will be a problem meeting a deadline, the person concerned should seek help from other members of the team in time to avoid a delay. There will be an assimilation period at the end of the session to evaluate group mechanics and ensure that all tasks have been completed adequately. Each group member has the right to point out whether any of these rules are being broken. Behaviour The group will actively seek a consensus of opinion based on the opinions of every member.

  • 4. The Effect Of Coffee On Reaction Time On A Group Of... Apply Research Skills in Contemporary Work Environment Assessment 2: Conducting a research study The effects of coffee on reaction time in a group of Swinburne nursing students Abstract This experiment studied the effects of caffeine on the reaction time of a number of students. It was done with 12 individuals who all selected their own source of caffeine to use for the testing. The three main caffeine sources were V energy drink, coffee and red bull. The reaction times of these students were recorded before and after drinking the caffeine in order to obtain results on the effect that caffeine had on the individual. This was done by using an online reaction test where students were to click on a button each time the green traffic light appeared. The results indicated significant differences in the reaction times of the students' pre and post caffeine intake. Therefore, the experiment showed that caffeine did have an impact on the reaction time of the student after consuming caffeine. This report allows comparison of the mean scores of the 12 groups using tables and graphs to clearly indicate the differentiation of each result.

I decided to share a minimum amount of information about myself based on the question that was assigned to the pod for the week's discussion. I was uncomfortable answering some of the questions that were asked of me by other pod members in my group; before on introduction was conducted, I was asked my age, my ethnicity and where I lived. Toby stated in his work; the tasks and skills of the social worker across stages of group development that "...at the initial stage, the group qua group is non–existent and therefore is a source of stress rather than support to members. The work of the group is... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Whitney volunteered to be the recorder and the other pod members agreed. We did not obtain the opportunity to review the information that Whitney recorded and posted on behalf of the group for the reason that we were short of time to do so. Mesbur indicated that, "Time is a specialized aspect of structure. The importance of time to effective group work practice needs to be understood. Often, decisions regarding the length of time for a particular group are not made based upon research and practice wisdom, but are formed in relation to trends and "fads". While time–limited methods have been shown to be effective for many typed of populations and problems, there are some needs which require longer term groups" (Mesbur, 2002). The importance of her insight was well received by the group as we rushed to complete the post so that Whitney would have all of the information that she needed to complete her recording. Whitney was efficient in connecting with every member of the group before she posted the recordings on the main ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 6. Why Do We Need to Understand Group Dynamics to Understand... I.Introduction To understand Organizational Behavior and Management, we must study three different levels. The first is the individual level, because every individual has its own unique perception of the world and what surrounds him. Individuals behave following how they interpret this and their environment. Each individual is different from the next one, because of its personality and characteristics. However, it's possible to organize them by categorizing their perceptions. Categories such as Appearance, Social behavior and Status are often considered. Individual's motivations must be analyzed to understand the next level : the Group. A Group is composed by 2 or more individuals, who come together to accomplish a particular task or ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... If members are attracted to the group because they like members of the group, or the group activities/goals or just because it fills a need for affiliation, they are more likely to be productive. The size of the group also has an influence on the group's performance. According to recent research, medium sized groups of 5 to 7 people seem to have the higher performance in organizations. If the group is smaller, there's a chance it can highlight the individual differences and harm the group cohesiveness. If group are too large, people tend to work more by themselves ("Free riding") rather than with the whole group, or create smaller teams within the group. c)Group norms. Norms are acceptable standards of behavior within a group that are shared by the members of the group. Norms define the limits of what is acceptable and what is not in terms of behavior. They are typically imagined in order to facilitate group survival, make behavior more predictable, avoid embarrassing situations, and express the values of the group. Each group will establish its own set of norms that may determine anything from the appropriate clothes to wear at a dinner to how many comments to make in a meeting. Groups pressure members to force them to conform to the group's standards. The norms often reflect the level of commitment, motivation, and performance of the group. The majority of the members of the group must agree that the norms are appropriate ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 7. Reflective Reflection : Reflective Thinking This self–reflection will incorporate the 4R's model of reflective thinking in order for my reflections to be properly structured. The overall group project was a good experience for me, and provided me a great opportunity to work with people from different cultures. Although these people were from different cultures, I knew each group member before this assignment and had worked with the majority of them previously. Therefore, I respected all the group member's and the skills, strengths and weaknesses they brought to our group. Because of my established relationship with all members, I felt that I was able to be honest in my assessment of their work without being perceived as bossy or creating conflict. The aim for all of us was to do very well in this assignment, so our group established a clear idea of outcomes and quality of work. While these positive experiences made the group project easier to complete. There are still challenges that we faced as a group. One main issue was that several group members failed to meet deadlines that the group had set. This is relevant because we as a group needed all involved to finish their individual parts in order to for their work to be read to implemented into the report. Failing to submit individual parts on time makes it more difficult for me to trust group members. This is a common issue that has happened in almost every group assignment I have undertaken. I found that communication with these group members was absolutely ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 8. Naturalistic Observation Of Student 's A Coffee Line Naturalistic Observation of Student's in a Coffee Line In the United States, 85% of adults own a cell phone, with 18 to 24 year olds texting the most (Zickuhr, 2011). Of these adults, 67% reported that they check their phone even if they do not hear it ringing, 44% sleep with the phone beside their bed, and 29% reported they could not live without their cell phone (Smith, 2012). In addition, according to the Baylor University report, studies show that young adults check their phone an average of 60 times a day. This study examined cell phone use among university students that were alone and in a group. Specifically, we were interested in observing whether students alone in a coffee line or students in a group in a coffee line, spent more or less time on their cell phone. We were also interested to observe ifgender affected cell phone usage and whether males or females were more likely to be in a group. The purpose of this study was to determine if university students that are alone spend more or less time on their phone than students that are in a group. We also examined if gender was an important factor on whether a student was in a group or alone. Using naturalistic observation, we calculated the amount of time individual students were on their phone per three minute time interval. The hypothesis was that students alone in a coffee line would spend the most time on their phone. We also predicted that women were more likely than men to be in a group. Method ...

In the postanesthesia recovery room, a transdermal patch of fentanyl was applied to the chest of the patients with intravenous midazolam in the treatment group.

Postoperative regression of both sensory and motor block was significantly slower in group N than in group B and the first rescue analgesic requirement in group N was significantly late than in group B. 0.8mg intrathecal nalbuphine as an adjunct to spinal bupivacaine prolongs the postoperative analgesia with minimal side effects and with desirable sedation intraoperatively which helps in taking care of psychological impact of operation theatre environment.

The study will measure the stress level reduction with the use of stress therapy (aromatherapy with essential oils).

  • 13. The Importance Of Communicating And People Understand... Communication has always been a up and down aspect in my life. I believe communicating is the purpose of receiving and giving information to others, but I also believe that communicating is a way of expressing yourself to the rest of the world. I do understand that others have greater levels of communicating and people understand communication differently. I have experienced both of these aspects of communication in groups I have been part of. Personally, I prefer to work in a group setting rather than as an individual. I like the support, experiences, and even friendships that evolve from group work. I believe that group communication helps to create a memorable and positive outcome for the task rather than doing it independently. I have been apart of many "groups" throughout my high school and college years and I have enjoyed and learned many different things from each one. One group in particular in which I learned a lot and was able to gain many skills was from my "core group". I was a New Student Orientation Assistant (NSOA) when entering my sophomore year at Eastern. NSOAs assist the new students with their transition to Eastern. There were over 150 of us students that were divided into core groups. I was with my core group for five days and with them throughout those days for more than 12 hours. Through those long training days, we learned a lot about one another. As a group, we bonded and were able to successfully complete the First Four training and orientation. ...

Both of these groups were very similar, based on their war dispositions such as their views on ways to gain power and land. As both of these groups progresses they both had many similarities, they both had just as many differences regarding their religious, war/conquest and economic views. The Aztecs were very advanced for their time period. As many groups emerged during this time period, the Aztecs were one of the most powerful empires of this day and age. The Aztecs were liked by many, but in turn were disliked by many others. They were mainly disliked because of their ritual of human sacrifice. Their religious beliefs included the worship of the Sun, which they believed the Sun would rise and set only by the sacrifice of another human. The Mongols on the other hand, had first started as pagan and then converted to Islamic beliefs. The Aztecs were also monotheistic where the Mongols had many different religions throughout their empire. This caused the Aztecs to be a more unified group, unlike the Mongols, who became more separated and divided by religion. The similarities between these two groups based on religion, were that they did not destroy other groups based on religion.

There are two specific articles that were chosen today; one of which from the Chicago Sun Times website, and the other from the New York Times. The issues following gun control have been very outrageous in my opinion. Let us talk about the city of Chicago, for instance. Chicago is known for its dangers. Being one of the most dangerous cities throughout the entire United States of America, gun violence has been a major issue over the years. As much as people say it will get better, things only get worse. In the Chicago Sun Times article, we take a look at how this issue was attempted to be solved. From the year of 2013 until present day, more than 7,000 weapons were collected each year. Chicago, to most people, is considered to be the murder capital of the U.S. Most of the murders were committed by guns. This is extremely sad, because think about all of the innocent lives that were taken; mothers, children, you name it. One of the main things that contribute to most of the gun violence is the fact that the city of Chicago has many gangs.

An example of this was during the design specification stage of the project. The group ended up getting very low scores because of the way the project was carried out. The work was not evenly shared out between the group members and all group members did not meet up regularly to see who had done which stage of the project. One group member ended up doing most of the task including the story design, the Entity relationship diagram, most of the use case descriptions and the structured English because the other group members did not understand how to do these part of the projects. This led to the group getting very low scores in all these sections as the individual who carried out most of the tasks was not able to fully focus on each section and develop them to an adequate level. This could have been avoided if the group had planned the project well because the weaknesses of individual members could have been discussed earlier and the person who understood the work could have showed the other members of the group how to carry out the various task they did not understand and this would have helped the group avoid failing this stage of the project.

Another problem is that this method requires everyone to have high motivation if they want to complete the project to a high standard and a as the group is small a few unmotivated people can bring the whole project down. The group did have motivation problems during the middle of the project with some group members not producing any work. The motivation could have been reduced if the work been assigned one at a time instead of all at the start allowing people to focus on one thing at a time and seeing the list of work get smaller. A problem with using this flat management with free development is that there are not a lot of examples to follow with many companies using agile.

In a military situation, lack of communication can result in the loss of lives, or failure to accomplish a goal as the power and upper hand is now in the hands of the force that was better prepared. In our specific situation, failing to communicate issues that arise prior to assignment completion will make the group ill prepared to deal with the burden of new assignments, and lead us subject to punishment at any time. The constant threat of punishment, or attack from a lack of communication leads the group to be in a disorganized state and make careless mistakes out of emotion.

  • 33. Working Well And How Group Project If There Is A Chance... Based on the small group that I joined in communication class, I will talk about what is working well and what is getting in the way in our group. Then I will discuss about what I can do to improve the group and the things about group project if there is a chance for a start over again. At last, I am also going to talk about what I think that I learned is important lesson in this semester. First of all, the things that were working well is about our different roles. We have five people in our group and two girls with three boys. For example, three boys are the "Maintenance roles" to "help the group run smoothly" (99). To be more specific, they are always talking to each other to check when we have any group works due. They also mentioned to us if there was any individual homework due. These are the roles for keeping the group on track. On the other hand, two girls were more like "task roles" and were "to help get the job done" (98). We are always divided works for our group members to finish our group projects. We also will contact every group members before our group meetings to make sure they finish their own works. Therefore, having different roles is the thing that we are working well. Then what is getting in the way is about our group meeting is on time now. When we just met each other first time, we did not know each other very well. We are kind of unconcern so most of us late for the first group meeting. However, when we talked to each other more in the first group ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 34. Group Observation Strategies Ellie is a 14–year–old 9th grader. Ellie just moved from a small town in Oklahoma to Phoenix, Arizona. Ellie has an older sister, and two younger brothers. Ellie loves art, and can be found doodling all the time. Ellie also likes to listen to music, and has her headphones in whenever she has the opportunity. Ellie likes to keep to herself, and doesn't often talk with other students. Ellie does really well at completing work independently, and tests on grade level. I am worried about Ellie, because her introverted behavior is beginning to cause disruptions with other classmates. Group work is required in my class, and not talking with others in class is affecting her grade. Other students do not want to work with Ellie, because she doesn't talk with others or "pull her weight" in group assignments. Ellie's goals are to increase her participation in discussions, and interact effectively with group activities (discussions, peer editing, writing workshop, etc.)....

I would choose dependent group contingency for Ellie. This means that Ellie or her group would earn a privilege by demonstrating appropriate group behavior. I think this would work well for Ellie, because it would raise her social status with her peers. Her peers would become encouragers for her. This could also help Ellie connect with her peers, and build positive relationships. If effective, this strategy will help Ellie increase her participation in discussions, and her ability to interact effectively in a ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 36. Group Collaboration Analysis Group work and collaboration is an opportunity for every nurse to expand their resources and make impacts on a large scale in their community. This final project of the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) has provided the opportunity to collaborate with individuals, groups and public health organizations to address a need in the community. The following will include an assessment of the group process utilizing the four stages of forming, storming, norming and performing as identified by Connery and Vohs (2006). An assessment of the collaboration with the Medical Reserve Corp and the Pierce County Health Department will also be evaluated. My personal roles and contributions will be discussed along with my perception of the group and partnerships ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Before the group begins discussing the project, everyone has a chance to discuss any personal stories or information they want to share. Personal information has included birthdays, impending births and how everyone spent their weekends. Even though the group members were fairly acquainted, this has provided opportunities for further relationship development. Connery and Vohs (2006) comment that groups attempt to alleviate tensions or anxiety by diving into the project and bypassing relationships. By spending a little time at the beginning of each meeting, our group have been able to work through any existing anxiety and gain insight into what is important and influential to the other group ...

  • 37. Social and Formal Groups Comparison Social and Formal Groups Comparison Debra Mallery SOC/120 – Sociology May 24, 2012 Kimberley Stephens Social and Formal Groups Comparison There are some obvious difference between a lady's church group and the local Ruritan. The first requirement in belong to a lady church group is you go to that church and you are a woman. The requirement to joining the local Ruritan is fist to live in the local area of the group. The next in joining the Ruritan is you have to fill out an application and it has to be approved by the board members then they say yes or no to you then the members of the Ruritan have to vote on you joining the group. The next main difference is most of the time a Ruritan group is made up of both men and women where... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Yes they both help the community but the Ruritan runs more on rules and how others see them in the community. Another difference is most of the time you may communicate with the members in a lady's group more than a Ruritan outside of a meeting. This is because women like talk more than men in most cases. Another difference is a lady's group may be close to the members because they are more open to others then men. Many times men join a local Ruritan to help with some of the sporting activities. Here where I live our Ruritan also has horse shows to raise money for the community. The Ruritan group may be well known outside the community because of the work that they do helping others. One of the main reasons the media recognizes the Ruritan more than a lady's group because they have more member active in the whole community instead just surrounding the church. When it come to the leadership of both of these have one main leader over the whole group. This person helps keeps the group working together toward the same goal of help the community. Social and Formal Groups Comparison That why you need one main person that has the final say on what they do in such who they decide to help in the community because you cannot help everyone even though they may need the help.

  • 38. Comparison Between Group D And Group C What is seen in the data is that there is not a steady decline in the reaction time when you compare each column to the previous or next respectively. The time increases when comparing Group A to Group B, but not Group B to Group C. The same also applies to Group C to Group D and then a decrease from Group D to Group E. Figure 1 shows a clearer picture of the RT when compared to all of the reaction time. Even though the time decreases in some areas, there is clear increase or RT when looking from the youngest to olderst. When looking at the graph, there isstatistical significance in some of the areas and not in others. All data was calculated at a 95% confidence level. The difference from Group A to Group B is only 0.2538 seconds, but when the data is compared to each other, the probability (P–Value) is 0.000287. This is a significant difference between the two. From Group B to Group C, there is a 0.01 second decrease in time, which has a P–Value of 0.4698. This is not a statistical difference and leaves room for this time to not be a normal outcome. Group C and Group D has a 0.2289 seconds increase, but when calculated with the raw data, there is no significant difference with a P–Value of 0.0833. Group D to Group E is a 0.1252 decrease with a P–Value of 0.3719 making it not significant. Group E to Group F has a 0.6351 second increase with a P–Value of 0.0535 also not making it significant.

  • 39. Group Size And Exposure Time To Conform or Not to Conform: An Experiment on Group Size and Exposure Time Over the years, there have been many tragedies such as the holocaust that happened in 1933. Many people wondered what caused these soldiers and civilians to go along with Hitler. In the society we live in, we are taught right from wrong at a very young age. How many people conformed in order to help kill more than 11 million people and why? At what point does the definition for right and wrong become a blur?
