This individual research proposal examines whether people prefer a mate based on physical looks or attitude. The hypothesis is that most people prefer a better-looking mate physically over one with a nice attitude but without physical attractiveness. A quantitative research method will be used where participants fill out a questionnaire or get interviewed. Their responses will be collected and organized to classify answers and count preferences for physical looks versus attitude. The study will follow standard research procedures including creating a hypothesis, designing questions, identifying variables, selecting participants, collecting and organizing data, and writing a report while ensuring ethical considerations are followed.
This document provides an outline for a report on representing a future city. It begins with an introduction describing the mayor's responsibility to solve problems facing the city of "X" and plan for its citizens' future needs. It then reviews definitions of a city and its key elements. Several past and present cities are investigated, focusing on their water systems, geometric shapes, and energy sources. This information is considered for application to the new planned city. The document proposes that the mayor will name the rebuilt city the "Half-Sphere City" as it will be enclosed in a large glass shield for protection from climate disasters.
1) The study examined factors that influence mate selection among 100 participants. Kindness was the most important factor, followed by intelligence and physical appearance.
2) Most participants found an age difference of 1-5 years acceptable. Over half were open to long-distance relationships and interracial dating. Bad family background was a dealbreaker for most.
3) Opinions on online dating, speed dating and blind dating were mixed, with fewer participants willing to use these methods themselves compared to viewing them as viable options in general. Characteristics like kindness were seen as more important than wealth.
This survey aims to examine the psychological factors people consider when choosing a mate. It asks respondents to answer questions about their relationship status, important selection factors like kindness and intelligence, acceptable age differences, views on long distance and interracial dating, family history considerations, and opinions on online, speed, and blind dating. Respondents are assured confidentiality and encouraged to answer candidly.
This document contains 3 journal entries written by a student for a psychology class. In the first entry, the student discusses learning about self-concept and realizing they know themselves better after reflecting on how others see them. The second entry describes learning about the psychology of color and visual perception. The third entry covers learning about attitude formation and the three theories of attitude change: evaluative conditioning, operant conditioning, and observational learning. The student expresses a preference for operant conditioning using rewards over punishment.
This document summarizes a site analysis project for a group called MVRDV. It lists the group members and their roles in analyzing different aspects of the site, including location, context, size, zoning, natural and man-made features, circulation, utilities, sensory perception, human activity, and climate. It also includes a SWOT analysis of the site outlining strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Progress reports from two locations surveying people to see if they notice an object are also summarized. Examples of case studies and initial ideas for redesigning a toy box are presented at the end.

Structural elements like reinforced concrete columns, beams, brick walls, and mild steel bars are indicated.
This document outlines a case study project on evaluating the lighting and acoustic performance of Underground Societe cafe. It begins with introducing the objectives, which are to understand lighting, acoustic characteristics, and acoustic requirements. It will analyze daylighting, artificial lighting, sound, and acoustics in the space. Data will be collected and documented in a report. The document provides background definitions on lighting and acoustic terms. It also describes the site and divides it into four zones for analysis: retail area, bistro area, kitchen, and hallway.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
This document provides a cognitive mapping and analysis of Petaling Jaya Old Town Seksyen 2 according to Kevin Lynch's five elements of paths, edges, districts, nodes, and landmarks. It identifies the main paths that connect the residential area to commercial areas along Jalan Othman and Jalan Selangor. Major landmarks include the Chinese primary school and kindergarten that create an education district. Residential housing and Chinese culture define it as a residential district for the Chinese community. Edges include the boundary roads and a row of trees separating the area from a highway.
This document outlines 23 steps for creating a detailed architectural model in a CAD program, including drawing grid lines and floor plans, inserting doors, windows, and staircases, defining parameters for materials and dimensions, and rendering the final 3D model with doors and windows. The steps cover tracing floor plans, adding structural elements, defining openings and frames, inputting parameters, and finalizing the model with dimensions and rendering.

This document provides a case study analysis of the courtyard design at Su-Garden in Beijing as a passive cooling system. It begins with an abstract that outlines the purpose is to identify if the courtyard fully acts as a passive cooling system. It then provides an introduction on Su-Garden and outlines 5 research questions. It defines passive cooling systems and how courtyards work through 3 cycles: at night cool air descends into the courtyard; during the day hot air rises from the courtyard; and in the late afternoon cool air descends again. It analyzes factors like Su-Garden's building orientation, structure, materials, and vegetation that influence its passive cooling performance.
Air Forest is a temporary pavilion installed in City Park, Denver, Colorado for an arts event. It is made of nylon fabric attached to 35 columns, 14 of which contain blowers to pump air into the structure. Air pressure from within holds up the pavilion, acting as a barometer that sways more in lower pressure. A gradient of silver dots on the nylon mimic the environment and provide shadows. The student made a scale model but had difficulties and changed methods, finalizing with details like air holes and venting.

The document discusses the materials used in buildings at the entrance of the National Zoo of Malaysia. The management building is mainly constructed of reinforced concrete, which has high strength and can withstand heat. Tempered glass is used for the facade, as it is stronger than normal glass and will not shatter into sharp pieces if broken. Aluminum supports the glass and makes up the facade, and is resistant to corrosion. Stainless steel is used for the staircase handles due to its strength, heat resistance, and resistance to corrosion and staining. The roof is made of polycarbonate, which is strong, tough, and impact-resistant. Pebble stone and concrete bricks make up unique flooring systems. Fabric structures provide shade and
