This document outlines key concepts regarding civil liberties in the United States, including freedom of religion, speech, press and privacy. It discusses how civil liberties are protected by the Constitution and Bill of Rights, and how the courts have interpreted and applied these protections over time, such as establishing limits on government assistance to religious schools and restrictions on different types of speech. The document also examines the right to privacy and how legislation has aimed to protect personal information in the modern digital era.
The document discusses the differences between Federalists and Anti-Federalists during the drafting and ratification of the US Constitution. The Federalists favored a strong central government and believed the original Constitution protected individual rights, while the Anti-Federalists wanted power divided among state governments and demanded a Bill of Rights to outline citizens' protected rights. The Bill of Rights was ultimately added and includes protections for freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, rights to bear arms, protection from unlawful search and seizure, self-incrimination, and cruel and unusual punishment. It also guarantees due process, eminent domain compensation, and the rights to legal counsel and trial by jury.
The document discusses civil liberties and protections guaranteed by the US Constitution. It covers several topics:
1) The Bill of Rights and later amendments protect civil liberties like freedom of speech, religion, press, and due process of law.
2) The Constitution limits government authority and protects individual rights, though some rights can conflict and are not guaranteed to non-citizens.
3) Constitutional protections include privacy rights, freedom from unreasonable searches and seizures, and bans on slavery. However, national security laws have expanded government surveillance powers.
4) The rights of the accused, like due process, habeas corpus, and bans on self-incrimination and double jeopardy, are outlined. Limits on bail
The document summarizes key concepts from Chapter 4 of the textbook "Essentials of the Legal Environment Today". It outlines the basic structure of the US government, the constitutional powers given to the federal government to regulate interstate commerce and establish federal law supremacy. It also discusses the Bill of Rights and individual freedoms protected, such as freedom of speech, religion, due process, and privacy rights.

The authors discuss the meaning of genocide, criminology’s aversion of the topic, and assertions of the United States’ own participation in it. Through reviewing a brief U.S. history, the authors argue that genocide stemming from the treatment of Native Americans throughout history should not be written off as radical conspiracy. Likening American Indian reservations to inner cities, a connection is made provoking questions between the historical treatment of African Americans and genocide.
Chapter 8: Lawmaking and the Administration of Criminal Law
This Chapter analyzes the impact that class, race, and gender have on shaping laws and the lawmaking process. Although criminal law is thought to be an objective measure of harm, it is instead the direct result of our political process headed by a powerful few, where money and privilege reign. The authors explain that the laws that shape our reality and perceptions of what is criminal serve the interests of the influential ruling class at the expense of the underclasses.

Thinking and Intelligence
Figure 7.1 Thinking is an important part of our human experience, and one that has captivated people for centuries.
Today, it is one area of psychological study. The 19th-century Girl with a Book by José Ferraz de Almeida Júnior, the
20th-century sculpture The Thinker by August Rodin, and Shi Ke’s 10th-century painting Huike Thinking all reflect the
fascination with the process of human thought. (credit “middle”: modification of work by Jason Rogers; credit “right”:

Chapter Outline
7.1 What Is Cognition?
7.2 Language
7.3 Problem Solving
7.4 What Are Intelligence and Creativity?
7.5 Measures of Intelligence
7.6 The Source of Intelligence
Introduction
Why is it so difficult to break habits—like reaching for your ringing phone even when you shouldn’t, such
as when you’re driving? How does a person who has never seen or touched snow in real life develop an
understanding of the concept of snow? How do young children acquire the ability to learn language with
no formal instruction? Psychologists who study thinking explore questions like these.
Cognitive psychologists also study intelligence. What is intelligence, and how does it vary from person
to person? Are “street smarts” a kind of intelligence, and if so, how do they relate to other types of
intelligence? What does an IQ test really measure? These questions and more will be explored in this
chapter as you study thinking and intelligence.
In other chapters, we discussed the cognitive processes of perception, learning, and memory. In this
chapter, we will focus on high-level cognitive processes. As a part of this discussion, we will consider
thinking and briefly explore the development and use of language. We will also discuss problem solving
and creativity before ending with a discussion of how intelligence is measured and how our biology
and environments interact to affect intelligence. After finishing this chapter, you will have a greater
appreciation of the higher-level cognitive processes that contribute to our distinctiveness as a species.

7.1 What Is Cognition?
Learning Objectives
By the end of this section, you will be able to:
• Describe cognition
• Distinguish concepts and prototypes
• Explain the difference between natural and artificial concepts
Imagine all of your thoughts as if they were physical entities, swirling rapidly inside your mind. How is it
possible that the brain is able to move from one thought to the next in an organized, orderly fashion? The
brain is endlessly perceiving, processing, planning, organizing, and remembering—it is always active. Yet,
you don’t notice most of your brain’s activity as you move throughout your daily routine. This is only one
facet of the complex processes involved in cognition. Simply put, cognition is thinking, and it encompasses
the processes associated with perception, knowledge, problem solving, judgment, langu.

Chapter 7The Problem of EvilOf all the objections to theism pr.docxrobertad6
Chapter 7
The Problem of Evil
Of all the objections to theism presented by atheists, the most celebrated and oft-rehearsed, by far, is the problem of evil and suffering. Debates about evolution and the like notwithstanding, most reflective theists would likely agree that objections to belief in God posed by the occurrence of evil and suffering present a far more serious challenge than do objections from science. (In fact, one of the most popular lines of objection to theistic evolution is really a version of the problem of evil; it asks, How could a perfectly loving God employ a means of creation that proceeds by way of the systematic destruction of the weakest and most vulnerable creatures?) A distinction must be drawn, however, between the problem of evil as a philosophical objection to religious belief and the problem as a concerned question.
Some philosophers have put forward arguments from evil which purport to show that God does not exist or that belief in God is unreasonable. To such philosophical attacks, philosophical responses are appropriate. However, many people—believers and nonbelievers alike—are bothered by evil. When they are faced with suffering, on their own part or on the part of others, they may pose an agonizing Why? A philosophical argument is often the last thing such a person wants to hear; such an argument may appear irritatingly superficial or even callous. The person wants compassion and empathy, and the proper response may simply be to listen and try to share the other’s grief and questions. At such times the problem of evil calls more for pastoral care than for philosophical debate.
The philosophical problem of evil, on the other hand, can be posed briefly and sharply. It appears to many people that a perfectly good, all-knowing and all-powerful being, were he to exist, would not allow the kinds or quantity of evil and suffering that exists in our world. The underlying assumption of this argument is the intuition—common to many atheists and theists alike—that a good being eliminates evil as far as it is able to. God, being omniscient, should be aware of every instance of evil and suffering; being perfectly good, he would presumably want to eliminate all evil; being omnipotent, he should be able to do just that. If there were a God, therefore, one would expect not to find any evil in the world. Since one does find evil—and quite a bit of it—God must not exist. In this way, the existence of evil and suffering is thought to undermine the rationality of belief in God.
Types of Evil, Versions of the Problem and Types of Responses
The evils in the world which this argument takes as its basis are usually divided into two types. Moral evil is all the evil which is due to the actions of free, morally responsible beings. Murders, rapes and the hunger caused by social injustice would be examples of moral evil. Natural evil (or nonmoral evil) is all the evil that is not (or at least does not appear to be) due to the actions.

Financial Operations
Financial operations involves the day-to-day oversight of such tasks as billing and collections (revenue cycle), cash management, and inventory management.
The specifics are highly dependent on the type of provider (e.g., hospital versus medical practice versus nursing home).
Thus, the focus here is on fundamental concepts as opposed to details.
Copyright 2009 Health Administration Press
7 - ‹#›
The Revenue Cycle
The revenue cycle is defined as all activities associated with billing and collecting for services.
In general, revenue cycle management should ensure that
patients are properly categorized by payer,
correct and timely billing takes place, and
correct and timely payment is received.
The revenue cycle includes the activities listed on the next slide.

The Revenue Cycle (cont.)
Before-service activities:
Insurance verification
Certification of managed-care patients
Patient financial counseling
At-service activities:
Insurance status verification
Service documentation/claims production
After-service activities:
Claims submission
Third-party follow-up (if needed)
Denials management
Payment receipt and posting
Monitoring and reporting:
Monitoring
Review and improvement

The Revenue Cycle (cont.)
In revenue cycle management, each of the identified activities is closely monitored to ensure that
the correct amount of reimbursement is collected on each patient,
reimbursements are collected as quickly as possible, and
the costs associated with the revenue cycle are minimized consistently with rapid and correct collections.
Two important keys to good revenue cycle management are information technology and electronic claims processing.
Copyright 2009 Health Administration Press
7 - ‹#›
Receivables Management
If a service is provided for cash, the revenue is immediately received.
If the service is provided on credit, the revenue is not received until the receivable is collected.
Receivables management, which falls under the general umbrella of the revenue cycle, is extremely important to healthcare providers.
Why?
Copyright 2009 Health Administration Press

Accumulation of Receivables
Suppose Valley Clinic contracts with an insurer whose patients use $2,000 in services daily and who pays in 40 days.
The clinic will accumulate receivables at a rate of $2,000 per day.
However, after 40 days, the receivables balance will stabilize at $80,000:
Receivables = Daily sales × Average collection period
= $2,000
× 40
= $80,000

CHAPTER 7Primate BehaviorWhat is Meant By Behavior.docxrobertad6
CHAPTER 7
Primate Behavior
What is Meant By Behavior?
• Anything organisms do that involves action in response to
internal or external stimuli.
• The response of an individual, group, or species to its
environment.
• Such responses may or may not be deliberate and they
aren't necessarily the results of conscious decision
making.
Ecological Perspective
• Pertains to relationships between organisms and
all aspects of their environment
• Temperature
• Predators
• Vegetation
• Availability of food and water
• Types of food
• Disease organisms
• Parasites
Behavioral Ecology
Focuses on the relationship between behaviors,
natural environment, and biological traits of the
species.
Based on the assumption that animals, plants, and
microorganisms evolved together.
Behaviors have evolved through the operation of
natural selection, or
Some behaviors are influenced by genes and are
subject to natural selection the same way physical
characteristics are.
The Evolution of Behavior
Behavior constitutes a phenotype
Individuals whose behavioral phenotypes increase
reproductive fitness pass on their genes at a faster
rate.
Genes do not code for specific behaviors, but they do
code for biological factors that impact behavior, i.e.
hormone levels, intelligence
Species vary in their limits and potentials for learning
and behavioral flexibility, set by genetic factors.
Natural selection acts on genetic factors shaped by
ecological, the same as it does physical
characteristics
Social Structure
• The composition, size, and sex ratio of a group of
animals.
• The social structure of a species is, in part, the
result of natural selection in a specific habitat, and
it guides individual interactions and social
relationships.
Why Are Primates Social?
• Group living exposes animals to competition with other group
members, so why not live alone?
• Costs of competition are offset by the benefits of predator
defense provided by associating with others.
• Group living evolved as an adaptive response to a number of
ecological variables.
Some Factors That Influence Social Structure
• Body Size
• Larger animals are better able to retain heat and their overall energy
requirements are less than for smaller animals
• This means they need fewer calories per unit of body weight.
Some Factors That Influence Social Structure
• Metabolism
• The chemical processes within cells that break down nutrients and release
energy for the body to use.
• Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and Diet
• Smaller animals generally have a higher BMR than larger ones.
• This means smaller primates require an energy-rich diet high in protein,
fats, and carbohydrates (fruit, and insects).
Some Factors That Influence Social Structure
• BMR and Diet
• Nutritional needs have evolved along with BMR and body size
• Benefits are considered in terms of energy (calories) obtained from food

CHAPTER 7
Friendship
THE NATURE OF FRIENDSHIPFRIENDSHIP ACROSS THE LIFE CYCLEDIFFERENCES IN FRIENDSHIPFRIENDSHIP DIFFICULTIESFOR YOUR CONSIDERATIONCHAPTER SUMMARY
I get by with a little help from my friends. John Lennon
Take a moment and think about your two best friends. Why are they such close companions? Why do you think of them as friends? You probably like but don't love them. (Or, at least, you're not “in love” with them, or you'd probably think of them as more than just “friends.”) You've probably shared a lot of good times with them, and you feel comfortable around them; you know that they like you, too, and you feel that you can count on them to help you when you need it.
Indeed, the positive sentiments you feel toward your friends may actually be rather varied and complex. They annoy you sometimes, but you're fond of them, and because they're best friends, they know things about you that no one else may know. You like to do things with them, and you expect your relationship to continue indefinitely. In fact, if you look back at the features that define intimacy (way back on page 2), you may find that your connections to your best friends are quite intimate, indeed. You may have substantial knowledge of them, and you probably feel high levels of trust and commitment toward them; you may not experience as much caring, interdependence, responsiveness, and mutuality as you do with a romantic partner, but all three are present, nonetheless.
So, are friendships the same as but just less intimate than our romantic partnerships? Yes and no. Friendships are based on the same building blocks of intimacy as romances are, but the mix of components is usually different. Romances also have some ingredients that friendships typically lack, so their recipes do differ. But many of the elements of friendships and romances are quite similar, and this chapter will set the stage for our consideration of love (in chapter 8) by detailing what it means to like an intimate partner. Among other topics, I'll describe various features of friendship and question whether men and women can be “just friends.”
Page 214
THE NATURE OF FRIENDSHIP
Our friendships are indispensable sources of pleasure and support. One study of unmarried young adults found that over one-third of them (36 percent) considered a friendship to be their “closest, deepest, most involved, and most intimate” current relationship (Berscheid et al., 1989). A larger proportion (47 percent) identified a romantic relationship as their most important partnerships, but friendships were obviously significant connections to others. And they remain so, even after people marry. Another study that used an event-sampling procedure1 to track people's interactions found that they were generally having more fun when they were with friends than when they were alone or with family members, including their spouses. The best times occurred when both their spouses and their friends were present, but if it was one or.

Food, Nutrition & Obesity Policy
Eyler, Chriqui, Moreland-Russell & Brownson, 2016
1
Identifying the Problem: Obesity & Its Consequences
Obesity = excessive body fat/bodyweight
BMI—a ratio of weight to height, calculated as kilograms divided by meters squared
Categorize an individual as obese = BMI ≥30
In children, obesity refers to a BMI greater than, or equal to, the 95th percentile
Obesity is a major risk factor for:
Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension
Greater risk for additional comorbid health conditions, including stroke, arthritis, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, kidney disease, and mental health problems related to social stigma

Disparities
Eyler, Chriqui, Moreland-Russell & Brownson, 2016

Identifying the Problem: Obesity & Its Consequences
Disparities: Children
Between 1980 and 2004, obesity prevalence tripled among children aged 2 to 19 years increasing from 6% to 19%
Overall prevalence has remained fairly stable since 2004
2011–2012 = 17% of children obese
Hispanic children have the highest obesity prevalence, followed by: non-Hispanic Black and non-Hispanic White children
Black children are more likely to be severely obese than are White children
Trends indicate the most pronounced increase of severe obesity in White female and Black male children
Eyler, Chriqui, Moreland-Russell & Brownson, 2016

Identifying the Problem: Obesity & Its Consequences
Disparities: Adults
More prevalent in non-Hispanic Blacks and Hispanics
Exists at the highest rate among all adults aged 40 to 59 years
Gender- and income-based obesity-related disparities exist among all racial and ethnic groups
Most pronounced among non-Hispanic Black women across all age categories
Higher income non- Hispanic Black and Mexican American men have slightly higher obesity prevalence rates than those with lower incomes
Adults in rural areas are significantly more likely to be obese than those in urban areas

Identifying the Problem: Obesity & Its Consequences
The Costs of Obesity
$315.8 billion was spent on adult obesity-related direct healthcare costs in 2010
Majority of expenses resulting from the treatment of comorbid health conditions, particularly type 2 diabetes
Medicare and Medicaid spending would see decreases of 8.5% and 11.8% if obesity-related costs were removed from the analysis
Obesity-related absenteeism translates to an estimated cost of $8.65 billion per year in lost productivity
