Topic/importance
My topic will be about fighting against gender stereotypes and gender roles, and gender identity that a culture incorporate for male and female, but the more concern is about females’ gender roles, gender identity, and gender stereotypes as described in chapter 7 and page number 150. Pai is dared to confront the cultural traditions about gender roles and gender stereotypes that are the hurdle in her way to adopt her own actual personality. This confrontation is the soul of the film and this theme is really important because this theme is so broad that every culture depicts this kind of the theme and every culture has its own defined gender stereotypes and gender roles. The importance of this topic is to evaluate the gender roles in every culture because without this evaluation we cannot put right people on right place to move ahead towards success of the people and the whole community.
Film description
At the East Coast of New Zealand, the people of Whangara believed that their existence was based on a purely brave prophet-Paikea, who did ride on the back of the whale in order to escape death when his canoe was capsized in the sea. Based on that believe, Whangarra chiefs had the belief that the only first born males were the directly the descendants of Paikea (Whale Rider, 2002). The protagonist in the movie is Paikea Apirana who is aged 11 years old girl born in this patriarchal tribe. Being a girl is shunned down by the society because of her mother, as well as her twin brother, died at the time of delivery, therefore, leaving the girl as unfavorable to Koro- her grandfather. She says that she was not glad when she was born as her twin brother died and took her mother away. The hope of the family was the boy who could lead the family (Whale Rider, 2002). The traditions bound her grandmother to choose a male leader in the society. The girl loves her grandfather than anyone else. Pai has to fight her grandfather as well as thousand years of the tradition in order to fulfill as well as meet her destiny. Pai shows great courage to collide with cultural norms and especially gender roles are very important to analyze to evaluate the direction of culture as far as the credibility and authenticity of gender stereotypes and gender roles are concerned. Moreover, the evaluation must be done to analyze the need to establish cultural gender roles and gender stereotypes. The persistence of Pai is another important feature of the film. The way Pai transformed from her outcast to the chief of the tribe depicts that cultural stereotypes can be defeated if a right person fights with his or her ability and persistence. The love of Pai for her tribe, grandparents, and the lifestyle of the tribe make her prominent from other children because other children love the modern and urban lifestyle. Pai persistently achieves the leading role of her tribe and proves that women shouldn’t be underestimated. They can rule and lead the communities.

The document discusses masculinity and how it has changed over time. It notes that traditionally, masculinity referred to character traits associated with men like courage, independence, and confidence. However, over time the lines between masculinity and femininity have blurred. The document discusses how early films in the 1930s-1960s portrayed new images of masculinity through actors like Humphrey Bogart and his "bad boy" persona as well as Clint Eastwood's roles in Westerns. It suggests these films helped define and change perceptions of masculinity during those eras.

Evolution or change over time occurs through the processes of natura.docxturveycharlyn
Evolution or change over time occurs through the processes of natural and sexual selection. In response to problems in our environment, we adapt both physically and psychologically to ensure our survival and reproduction. Sexual selection theory describes how evolution has shaped us to provide a mating advantage rather than just a survival advantage and occurs through two distinct pathways: intrasexual competition and intersexual selection. Gene selection theory, the modern explanation behind evolutionary biology, occurs through the desire for gene replication. Evolutionary psychology connects evolutionary principles with modern psychology and focuses primarily on psychological adaptations: changes in the way we think in order to improve our survival. Two major evolutionary psychological theories are described: Sexual strategies theory describes the psychology of human mating strategies and the ways in which women and men differ in those strategies. Error management theory describes the evolution of biases in the way we think about everything. Learning Objectives • Learn what “evolution” means. • Define the primary mechanisms by which evolution takes place. • Identify the two major classes of adaptations. • Define sexual selection and its two primary processes. • Define gene selection theory. • Understand psychological adaptations. • Identify the core premises of sexual strategies theory. • Identify the core premises of error management theory, and provide two empirical examples of adaptive cognitive biases. Introduction If you have ever been on a first date, you’re probably familiar with the anxiety of trying to figure out what clothes to wear or what perfume or cologne to put on. In fact, you may even consider flossing your teeth for the first time all year. When considering why you put in all this work, you probably recognize that you’re doing it to impress the other person. But how did you learn these particular behaviors? Where did you get the idea that a first date should be at a nice restaurant or someplace unique? It is possible that we have been taught these behaviors by observing others. It is also possible, however, that these behaviors— the fancy clothes, the expensive restaurant —are biologically programmed into us. That is, just as peacocks display their feathers to show how attractive they are, or some lizards do push-ups to show how strong they are, when we style our hair or bring a gift to a date, we’re trying to communicate to the other person: “Hey, I’m a good mate! Choose me! Choose me!" However, we all know that our ancestors hundreds of thousands of years ago weren’t driving sports cars or wearing designer clothes to attract mates. So how could someone ever say that such behaviors are “biologically programmed” into us? Well, even though our ancestors might not have been doing these specific actions, these behaviors are the result of the same driving force: the powerful influence of evolution. Yes, evolution—certain trait.
Evolution, Religion, and Intelligent DesignMany people mistakenl.docxturveycharlyn
Evolution, Religion, and Intelligent Design
Many people mistakenly believe that a belief in evolution precludes a belief in God or intelligent design; in other words, some people falsely think that one must be an atheist or agnostic to believe in evolution and the Big Bang. The Catholic Church is one example of a religious institution that has long held the view that evolution and the Big Bang explain ‘how we got here.’ Read the below article from the
Catholic Herald
, and then answer the following questions: Why do you think so many people are mistaken about the ability to believe in God as well as evolution and the Big Bang? Do you find anything problematic about combining religious and scientific explanations of the universe? Explain.
NB: In this discussion, students often misuse the word ‘theory’, saying things such as “the Big Bang/evolution are ‘just’ theories.” But to say this is a misuse of the word 'theory' as it applies to scientific theory. Many people misunderstand the word as it is used in the realm of science, thinking it to mean a guess, a hypothetical, untested idea. However, in science, 'theory' means something different. Please read the article below:
"Just a Theory": 7 Misused Science Words - Scientific American
Article from the
Catholic Herald
By Patrick Cusworth October 31, 2014
Pope Francis's comments on the Big Bang are not revolutionary. Catholic teaching has long professed the likelihood of human evolution
Perhaps it was inevitable that Pope Francis’ comments on the Church’s position on scientific theories such as the Big Bang and evolution would cause a stir. In his address to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, the Pope cautioned against the image of God the creator as “a magician, with a magic wand”, arguing that belief in both theories around the beginnings of the universe and the birth of humankind are consistent with the Catholic faith.
“The Big Bang, which is today posited as the origin of the world, does not contradict the divine act of creation; rather, it requires it”, he stated. Similarly, he argued, “evolution of nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation because evolution pre-supposes the creation of beings which evolve.”
Yet despite further murmurings that Pope Francis was beginning (yet another) revolution in Catholic doctrine, it must be pointed out – the Pope’s declaration on either theory has not broken with established Catholic belief in the slightest.
The Big Bang theory, originally hypothesised in 1927 by Jesuit priest and physicist Georges Lemaître, is based on the central proposition that the universe is continually expanding. As a preposition, the universe was originally contained within a single point, in a highly intense state of heat and density. As the universe began to expand it cooled, allowing the formation of subatomic particles, which began a series of physical cosmological processes, which led eventually to the known universe. While this has become the most co.

Chapter Outline
1. Discovering How Populations Change
2. Mechanisms of Evolution
3. Evidence of Evolution
4. Speciation
5. Common Misconceptions about Evolution
Introduction
All species of living organisms—from the bacteria on our skin, to the trees in our yards, to the birds outside—evolved at some point from a different species. Although it may seem that living things today stay much the same from generation to generation, that is not the case: evolution is ongoing. Evolution is the process through which the characteristics of species change and through which new species arise.
The theory of evolution is the unifying theory of biology, meaning it is the framework within which biologists ask questions about the living world. Its power is that it provides direction for predictions about living things that are borne out in experiment after experiment. The Ukrainian-born American geneticist Theodosius Dobzhansky famously wrote that "nothing makes sense in biology except in the light of evolution" (Dobzhansky 1964, 449). He meant that the principle that all life has evolved and diversified from a common ancestor is the foundation from which we understand all other questions in biology. This chapter will explain some of the mechanisms for evolutionary change and the kinds of questions that biologists can and have answered using evolutionary theory.
Discovering How Populations Change
By the end of this section, you will bbe able to:
· Explain how Darwin’s theory of evolution differed from the current view at the time.
· Describe how the present-day theory of evolution was developed.
· Describe how population genetics is used to study the evolution of populations
The theory of evolution by natural selection describes a mechanism for species change over time. That species change had been suggested and debated well before Darwin. The view that species were static and unchanging was grounded in the writings of Plato, yet there were also ancient Greeks that expressed evolutionary ideas.
In the eighteenth century, ideas about the evolution of animals were reintroduced by the naturalist Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon and even by Charles Darwin’s grandfather, Erasmus Darwin. During this time, it was also accepted that there were extinct species. At the same time, James Hutton, the Scottish naturalist, proposed that geological change occurred gradually by the accumulation of small changes from pr.

"Evolution in Animals and Population of Humans"
Humans belong to the genus Homo and chimpanzees to the genus Pan, yet studies of primate genes show that chimpanzees and humans are more closely related to one another than each is to any other animals. In light of this result, some researchers suggest that chimpanzees should be renamed as members of the genus Homo. Discuss at least three (3) practical, scientific, and / or ethical issues that might be raised by such a change in naming.

NARRATOR: Research Design-- Observational and Correlational Studies. Since the moment you
were born, you've been exploring the world around you. In a sense, you've been conducting research.
You've noticed the ways people interact with each other, the relative sizes of objects,
NARRATOR [continued]: and how the colors of nature change with the seasons. Each of us is an
amateur researcher, observing, analyzing, and drawing conclusions about everything we see. In order
to conduct a more formal study whose conclusions you can share with others, you need to apply
scientific methods to your research.
NARRATOR [continued]: Knowing about scientific research methods will also help you understand,
interpret, and be more analytical in your thinking about studies you read about in textbooks, journals,
newspapers, or online. To make sure your research is as strong as possible, let's talk about designing
your study and interpreting your results.
NARRATOR [continued]: Specifically, we'll focus on some overarching types of research studies,
when to use an observational design, along with some advantages and disadvantages, two different
types of observational design, those that you conduct in the field and those that you conduct in a
laboratory,
NARRATOR [continued]: analyzing data from an observational study, including some statistical
methods, when to use a correlational design, along with some advantages and disadvantages, how
to design and implement one, and analyzing data from a correlational study.
NARRATOR [continued]: Before we begin to explore research designs, it is important to understand
the terms "variable" and "construct." These terms are used interchangeably and are found throughout
scientific literature.

Nursing Practice
Chapter 10
Evidence-Based Practice:
What Is It?
• Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a
framework used by nurses and other
healthcare professionals to deliver optimal
health care through the integration of best
current evidence, clinical expertise, and
patient/family values
Why Is EBP Relevant in Nursing? (1 of 2)
• Helps resolve problems in the clinical setting
• Results in effective patient care and better
outcomes
• Contributes to the science of nursing through
the introduction of innovation to practice
• Keeps practice current and relevant by helping
nurses deliver care based upon current best
research
Why Is EBP Relevant in Nursing? (2 of 2)
• Decreases variations in nursing care and
increases confidence in decision making
• Supports Joint Commission on Accreditation
of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO)-
readiness since policies and procedures are
current and include the latest research
• Supports high quality patient care and
achievement of Magnet status
Steps in the EBP Process (1 of 2)
• Cultivate a spirit of inquiry and culture of EBP
among nurses and within the organization
• Identify an issue and ask the question
• Search for and collect the most relevant and
best evidence to answer the clinical question
Steps in the EBP Process (2 of 2)
• Critically appraise the evidence and synthesize
the evidence
• Integrate evidence with clinical expertise and
patient preferences to make the best clinical
decision
• Evaluate the outcome of any EBP change
• Disseminate the outcomes of the change
Barriers to EBP in Nursing (1 of 3)
• Lack of value for research in practice
• Difficulty in changing practice
• Lack of administrative support
• Lack of knowledgeable mentors
• Insufficient time
• Lack of education about the research process
• Lack of awareness about research or EBP
Barriers to EBP in Nursing (2 of 3)
• Research reports/articles not readily available
• Difficulty accessing research reports and articles
• No time on the job to read research
• Complexity of research reports
• Lack of knowledge about EBP
• Lack of knowledge about the critique of articles
Barriers to EBP in Nursing (3 of 3)
• Feeling overwhelmed by the process
• Lack of sense of control over practice
• Lack of confidence to implement change
• Lack of leadership, motivation, vision,
strategy, or direction among managers
Promoting EBP: Individual Nurse
• Educate yourself about EBP
• Conduct face-to-face or online journal clubs,
share new research reports and guidelines with
peers, and provide support to other nurses
• Share your results through posters, newsletters,
unit meetings, or a published article
• Adopt a reflective and inquiring approach to
practice
Strategies to Promote EBP:
Organizations
• Specific identification of the facilitators and
barriers to EBP
• Education and training to improve
knowle.

English 135 Research Essay (1000 Words = 25%):
This is a research paper not a research project: no original research required.
A)Here you will begin a program of research from a premise/hypothesis, a hunch, or an interest and then research from that footing.
1) For our purposes, research papers can begin from a question to investigate, an hypothesis to investigate, or a statement to support, even an interest to pursue; whichever road you take you must provide facts and details out of authoritative sources and resources.
2) This is either a thesis and details paper that answers a question (Why don’t chickens survive in the wild?), leads to a conclusion (Chicken wrangling has untapped potential for making a living), or proves a thesis (Chickens do not survive in the wild because they are flightless), or it is a simple research paper that “looks at” something (the history of domestic chickens).
3) Research papers always attempt to provide balance: whatever you research, there will always be a variety of takes, points of view, and interpretations of facts, figures or details. You must address as much of this variety as possible.
4) Research papers never prove anything; at best they illustrate or support hypotheses or argue for the validity of assertions.
5) Conclusions in research papers are often speculative (This research suggests that. . .) and they never introduce new ideas, details, or topics.
RESEARCH PAPER
Topic planning:
B) Your papers will be 1000 (3-4 pages, 8 paragraphs). This requires a certain size of topic, so consider yours carefully. How do I focus a topic to fit the size of my paper? How many points/details do I need to provide? How many categories or organizing principles for classification (the first sentence in the box or group of boxes/the sentences that make up the body of your thesis paragraph)?
If absolutely necessary, this can be done quite mathematically: 8 paragraphs = 1 introduction and 1 conclusion + 6 paragraphs (approx. 18 pieces of evidence.).
This means a maximum of 6 categories or organizing principles for classification (controlling ideas supported by individual pieces.
Evidence-Based Practice Beliefs and Behaviors of Nurses Prov.docxturveycharlyn
Nurses agreed with the positive aspects of EBP and their ability to implement it, although their actual implementation level was low. They were satisfied with their cancer pain management practices. Themes identified from interviews included a limited definition of EBP, varied evidence-based decision making for pain management, limited identification of evidence-based pain practices, and integration of nonpharmacologic interventions into care. Nurses' low implementation of EBP in pain management was explained by their belief that standards of care and medical orders were already evidence-based.

Evolution or change over time occurs through the processes of natura.docxturveycharlyn
Evolution or change over time occurs through the processes of natural and sexual selection. In response to problems in our environment, we adapt both physically and psychologically to ensure our survival and reproduction. Sexual selection theory describes how evolution has shaped us to provide a mating advantage rather than just a survival advantage and occurs through two distinct pathways: intrasexual competition and intersexual selection. Gene selection theory, the modern explanation behind evolutionary biology, occurs through the desire for gene replication. Evolutionary psychology connects evolutionary principles with modern psychology and focuses primarily on psychological adaptations: changes in the way we think in order to improve our survival. Two major evolutionary psychological theories are described: Sexual strategies theory describes the psychology of human mating strategies and the ways in which women and men differ in those strategies. Error management theory describes the evolution of biases in the way we think about everything. Learning Objectives • Learn what “evolution” means. • Define the primary mechanisms by which evolution takes place. • Identify the two major classes of adaptations. • Define sexual selection and its two primary processes. • Define gene selection theory. • Understand psychological adaptations. • Identify the core premises of sexual strategies theory. • Identify the core premises of error management theory, and provide two empirical examples of adaptive cognitive biases. Introduction If you have ever been on a first date, you’re probably familiar with the anxiety of trying to figure out what clothes to wear or what perfume or cologne to put on. In fact, you may even consider flossing your teeth for the first time all year. When considering why you put in all this work, you probably recognize that you’re doing it to impress the other person. But how did you learn these particular behaviors? Where did you get the idea that a first date should be at a nice restaurant or someplace unique? It is possible that we have been taught these behaviors by observing others. It is also possible, however, that these behaviors— the fancy clothes, the expensive restaurant —are biologically programmed into us. That is, just as peacocks display their feathers to show how attractive they are, or some lizards do push-ups to show how strong they are, when we style our hair or bring a gift to a date, we’re trying to communicate to the other person: “Hey, I’m a good mate! Choose me! Choose me!" However, we all know that our ancestors hundreds of thousands of years ago weren’t driving sports cars or wearing designer clothes to attract mates. So how could someone ever say that such behaviors are “biologically programmed” into us? Well, even though our ancestors might not have been doing these specific actions, these behaviors are the result of the same driving force: the powerful influence of evolution. Yes, evolution—certain trait.
Evolution, Religion, and Intelligent DesignMany people mistakenl.docxturveycharlyn
Evolution, Religion, and Intelligent Design
Many people mistakenly believe that a belief in evolution precludes a belief in God or intelligent design; in other words, some people falsely think that one must be an atheist or agnostic to believe in evolution and the Big Bang. The Catholic Church is one example of a religious institution that has long held the view that evolution and the Big Bang explain ‘how we got here.’ Read the below article from the
Catholic Herald
, and then answer the following questions: Why do you think so many people are mistaken about the ability to believe in God as well as evolution and the Big Bang? Do you find anything problematic about combining religious and scientific explanations of the universe? Explain.
NB: In this discussion, students often misuse the word ‘theory’, saying things such as “the Big Bang/evolution are ‘just’ theories.” But to say this is a misuse of the word 'theory' as it applies to scientific theory. Many people misunderstand the word as it is used in the realm of science, thinking it to mean a guess, a hypothetical, untested idea. However, in science, 'theory' means something different. Please read the article below:
"Just a Theory": 7 Misused Science Words - Scientific American
Article from the
Catholic Herald
By Patrick Cusworth October 31, 2014
Pope Francis's comments on the Big Bang are not revolutionary. Catholic teaching has long professed the likelihood of human evolution
Perhaps it was inevitable that Pope Francis’ comments on the Church’s position on scientific theories such as the Big Bang and evolution would cause a stir. In his address to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, the Pope cautioned against the image of God the creator as “a magician, with a magic wand”, arguing that belief in both theories around the beginnings of the universe and the birth of humankind are consistent with the Catholic faith.
“The Big Bang, which is today posited as the origin of the world, does not contradict the divine act of creation; rather, it requires it”, he stated. Similarly, he argued, “evolution of nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation because evolution pre-supposes the creation of beings which evolve.”
Yet despite further murmurings that Pope Francis was beginning (yet another) revolution in Catholic doctrine, it must be pointed out – the Pope’s declaration on either theory has not broken with established Catholic belief in the slightest.
The Big Bang theory, originally hypothesised in 1927 by Jesuit priest and physicist Georges Lemaître, is based on the central proposition that the universe is continually expanding. As a preposition, the universe was originally contained within a single point, in a highly intense state of heat and density. As the universe began to expand it cooled, allowing the formation of subatomic particles, which began a series of physical cosmological processes, which led eventually to the known universe. While this has become the most co.

1. Discovering How Populations Change
2. Mechanisms of Evolution
3. Evidence of Evolution
4. Speciation
5. Common Misconceptions about Evolution
Introduction
All species of living organisms—from the bacteria on our skin, to the trees in our yards, to the birds outside—evolved at some point from a different species. Although it may seem that living things today stay much the same from generation to generation, that is not the case: evolution is ongoing. Evolution is the process through which the characteristics of species change and through which new species arise.
The theory of evolution is the unifying theory of biology, meaning it is the framework within which biologists ask questions about the living world. Its power is that it provides direction for predictions about living things that are borne out in experiment after experiment. The Ukrainian-born American geneticist Theodosius Dobzhansky famously wrote that "nothing makes sense in biology except in the light of evolution" (Dobzhansky 1964, 449). He meant that the principle that all life has evolved and diversified from a common ancestor is the foundation from which we understand all other questions in biology. This chapter will explain some of the mechanisms for evolutionary change and the kinds of questions that biologists can and have answered using evolutionary theory.
Discovering How Populations Change
By the end of this section, you will bbe able to:
· Explain how Darwin’s theory of evolution differed from the current view at the time.
· Describe how the present-day theory of evolution was developed.
· Describe how population genetics is used to study the evolution of populations
The theory of evolution by natural selection describes a mechanism for species change over time. That species change had been suggested and debated well before Darwin. The view that species were static and unchanging was grounded in the writings of Plato, yet there were also ancient Greeks that expressed evolutionary ideas.
In the eighteenth century, ideas about the evolution of animals were reintroduced by the naturalist Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon and even by Charles Darwin’s grandfather, Erasmus Darwin. During this time, it was also accepted that there were extinct species. At the same time, James Hutton, the Scottish naturalist, proposed that geological change occurred gradually by the accumulation of small changes from pr.

NARRATOR: Research Design-- Observational and Correlational Studies. Since the moment you
were born, you've been exploring the world around you. In a sense, you've been conducting research.
You've noticed the ways people interact with each other, the relative sizes of objects,
NARRATOR [continued]: and how the colors of nature change with the seasons. Each of us is an
amateur researcher, observing, analyzing, and drawing conclusions about everything we see. In order
to conduct a more formal study whose conclusions you can share with others, you need to apply
scientific methods to your research.
NARRATOR [continued]: Knowing about scientific research methods will also help you understand,
interpret, and be more analytical in your thinking about studies you read about in textbooks, journals,
newspapers, or online. To make sure your research is as strong as possible, let's talk about designing
your study and interpreting your results.
NARRATOR [continued]: Specifically, we'll focus on some overarching types of research studies,
when to use an observational design, along with some advantages and disadvantages, two different
types of observational design, those that you conduct in the field and those that you conduct in a
laboratory,
NARRATOR [continued]: analyzing data from an observational study, including some statistical
methods, when to use a correlational design, along with some advantages and disadvantages, how
to design and implement one, and analyzing data from a correlational study.
NARRATOR [continued]: Before we begin to explore research designs, it is important to understand
the terms "variable" and "construct." These terms are used interchangeably and are found throughout
scientific literature.
NICOLE CAIN: A "construct," which can also be called a "variable," is a topic of interest that varies
from person to person. Some examples of constructs that researchers .

“Evidence-informed decision-making (EIDM) involves the incorporation of the best available evidence from a systematically collected, appraised, and analyzed body of knowledge” (Liebowitz, Schieber, and Andreadis, 2010). Academic libraries are argued to be considered knowledge management tools.
Tasks:
Using the South University Online Library or the Internet, research healthcare IT and their standards. Based on your research on a current Public Health issue and understanding, respond to the following:
Defend and argue your position on the role that academic libraries such as South University Online Library play as Knowledge Management Tools.
Identify and describe the desired results of your library research on a current public health issue.
Assess the process and identify the gaps in the key terms used to find the desired data and information.
Describe and discuss if the principles of knowledge management can close the gaps in the lack of data and information.
Develop a strategy to engage the right people and technology to assist in finding the necessary data and information and convert it to knowledge.
Formulate a summary of the new knowledge you have gained from at least three research articles related to the current public health issue researched.

Nursing Practice
Chapter 10
Evidence-Based Practice:
What Is It?
• Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a
framework used by nurses and other
healthcare professionals to deliver optimal
health care through the integration of best
current evidence, clinical expertise, and
patient/family values
Why Is EBP Relevant in Nursing? (1 of 2)
• Helps resolve problems in the clinical setting
• Results in effective patient care and better
outcomes
• Contributes to the science of nursing through
the introduction of innovation to practice
• Keeps practice current and relevant by helping
nurses deliver care based upon current best
research
Why Is EBP Relevant in Nursing? (2 of 2)
• Decreases variations in nursing care and
increases confidence in decision making
• Supports Joint Commission on Accreditation
of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO)-
readiness since policies and procedures are
current and include the latest research
• Supports high quality patient care and
achievement of Magnet status
Steps in the EBP Process (1 of 2)
• Cultivate a spirit of inquiry and culture of EBP
among nurses and within the organization
• Identify an issue and ask the question
• Search for and collect the most relevant and
best evidence to answer the clinical question
Steps in the EBP Process (2 of 2)
• Critically appraise the evidence and synthesize
the evidence
• Integrate evidence with clinical expertise and
patient preferences to make the best clinical
decision
• Evaluate the outcome of any EBP change
• Disseminate the outcomes of the change
Barriers to EBP in Nursing (1 of 3)
• Lack of value for research in practice
• Difficulty in changing practice
• Lack of administrative support
• Lack of knowledgeable mentors
• Insufficient time
• Lack of education about the research process
• Lack of awareness about research or EBP
Barriers to EBP in Nursing (2 of 3)
• Research reports/articles not readily available
• Difficulty accessing research reports and articles
• No time on the job to read research
• Complexity of research reports
• Lack of knowledge about EBP
• Lack of knowledge about the critique of articles
Barriers to EBP in Nursing (3 of 3)
• Feeling overwhelmed by the process
• Lack of sense of control over practice
• Lack of confidence to implement change
• Lack of leadership, motivation, vision,
strategy, or direction among managers
Promoting EBP: Individual Nurse
• Educate yourself about EBP
• Conduct face-to-face or online journal clubs,
share new research reports and guidelines with
peers, and provide support to other nurses
• Share your results through posters, newsletters,
unit meetings, or a published article
• Adopt a reflective and inquiring approach to
practice
Strategies to Promote EBP:
Organizations
• Specific identification of the facilitators and
barriers to EBP
• Education and training to improve
knowle.

English 135 Research Essay (1000 Words = 25%):
This is a research paper not a research project: no original research required.
A)Here you will begin a program of research from a premise/hypothesis, a hunch, or an interest and then research from that footing.
1) For our purposes, research papers can begin from a question to investigate, an hypothesis to investigate, or a statement to support, even an interest to pursue; whichever road you take you must provide facts and details out of authoritative sources and resources.
2) This is either a thesis and details paper that answers a question (Why don’t chickens survive in the wild?), leads to a conclusion (Chicken wrangling has untapped potential for making a living), or proves a thesis (Chickens do not survive in the wild because they are flightless), or it is a simple research paper that “looks at” something (the history of domestic chickens).
3) Research papers always attempt to provide balance: whatever you research, there will always be a variety of takes, points of view, and interpretations of facts, figures or details. You must address as much of this variety as possible.
4) Research papers never prove anything; at best they illustrate or support hypotheses or argue for the validity of assertions.
5) Conclusions in research papers are often speculative (This research suggests that. . .) and they never introduce new ideas, details, or topics.
RESEARCH PAPER
Topic planning:
B) Your papers will be 1000 (3-4 pages, 8 paragraphs). This requires a certain size of topic, so consider yours carefully. How do I focus a topic to fit the size of my paper? How many points/details do I need to provide? How many categories or organizing principles for classification (the first sentence in the box or group of boxes/the sentences that make up the body of your thesis paragraph)?
If absolutely necessary, this can be done quite mathematically: 8 paragraphs = 1 introduction and 1 conclusion + 6 paragraphs (approx. 18 pieces of evidence.).
This means a maximum of 6 categories or organizing principles for classification (controlling ideas supported by individual pieces.
Evidence-Based Practice Beliefs and Behaviors of Nurses Prov.docxturveycharlyn
Nurses agreed with the positive aspects of EBP and their ability to implement it, although their actual implementation level was low. They were satisfied with their cancer pain management practices. Themes identified from interviews included a limited definition of EBP, varied evidence-based decision making for pain management, limited identification of evidence-based pain practices, and integration of nonpharmacologic interventions into care. Nurses' low implementation of EBP in pain management was explained by their belief that standards of care and medical orders were already evidence-based.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

TopicimportanceMy topic will be about fighting against gender s.docx
1. Topic/importance
My topic will be about fighting against gender stereotypes and
gender roles, and gender identity that a culture incorporate for
male and female, but the more concern is about females’ gender
roles, gender identity, and gender stereotypes as described in
chapter 7 and page number 150. Pai is dared to confront the
cultural traditions about gender roles and gender stereotypes
that are the hurdle in her way to adopt her own actual
personality. This confrontation is the soul of the film and this
theme is really important because this theme is so broad that
every culture depicts this kind of the theme and every culture
has its own defined gender stereotypes and gender roles. The
importance of this topic is to evaluate the gender roles in every
culture because without this evaluation we cannot put right
people on right place to move ahead towards success of the
people and the whole community.
Film description
At the East Coast of New Zealand, the people of Whangara
believed that their existence was based on a purely brave
prophet-Paikea, who did ride on the back of the whale in order
to escape death when his canoe was capsized in the sea. Based
on that believe, Whangarra chiefs had the belief that the only
first born males were the directly the descendants of Paikea
(Whale Rider, 2002). The protagonist in the movie is Paikea
Apirana who is aged 11 years old girl born in this patriarchal
tribe. Being a girl is shunned down by the society because of
her mother, as well as her twin brother, died at the time of
delivery, therefore, leaving the girl as unfavorable to Koro- her
grandfather. She says that she was not glad when she was born
as her twin brother died and took her mother away. The hope of
the family was the boy who could lead the family (Whale Rider,
2002). The traditions bound her grandmother to choose a male
leader in the society. The girl loves her grandfather than anyone
else. Pai has to fight her grandfather as well as thousand years
2. of the tradition in order to fulfill as well as meet her destiny.
Pai shows great courage to collide with cultural norms and
especially gender roles are very important to analyze to evaluate
the direction of culture as far as the credibility and authenticity
of gender stereotypes and gender roles are concerned.
Moreover, the evaluation must be done to analyze the need to
establish cultural gender roles and gender stereotypes. The
persistence of Pai is another important feature of the film. The
way Pai transformed from her outcast to the chief of the tribe
depicts that cultural stereotypes can be defeated if a right
person fights with his or her ability and persistence. The love of
Pai for her tribe, grandparents, and the lifestyle of the tribe
make her prominent from other children because other children
love the modern and urban lifestyle. Pai persistently achieves
the leading role of her tribe and proves that women shouldn’t be
underestimated. They can rule and lead the communities.
Thesis
My thesis is that cultural gender stereotypes and gender roles
are baseless, ambiguous, and a hindrance in the way of people’s
thought process which creates trouble for them to adjust their
selves within the culture which turns them into a revolutionary
character to act against the cultural gender stereotypes and
gender roles.
Two external sources
Gender stereotypes stem from the distribution of women and
men into social roles.

3. Two external sources
I am going to use these two external sources because these
sources analyzes the gender stereotypes of cultures and go along
what the film depicts about gender roles and gender stereotypes.
Cultural gender stereotypes don’t allow women to thrash in the
society. Women are supposed to be in the lower ranks than men
when it comes to lead the family for a bright future. Cultural
gender stereotypes and gender roles assign the duty of leading
the family to men which are supposed to be stronger, wiser, and
diplomatic than women. This cannot be true in both perspectives
of women and men. The film describes the hope of the family to
have the boy who could lead the family. The family doesn’t
consider Pai to be able enough to lead the family and the reason
behind their consideration is gender stereotypes and gender
roles of their culture.
These two sources go against the gender stereotypes and gender
roles which diminish or lessen the active, effective, and leading
role of the women.
Source # 1
The article includes experiments about the communal and
agentic nature of males and females. The experiments of the
article disqualify the stereotypic belief that women are more
likely than men to hold the position of lower status and
authority. Moreover, the article also clarifies that women,
definitely, want to master in the field they like.
The article is well written and proves that the gender
stereotypes must be redefined and analyzed especially about
women perspective. The article’s conclusion backs up the
thinking of the protagonist character of the film “Pai”.
Source # 2
The articles analyzes the scarcity of women at the upper or
higher levels of organizations and poses the reasons behind this
scarcity as gender stereotypes and gender roles that culture
assigns to its population. The gender bias hinders women to
proceed as much as they have the ability as compared to men do
in their life.
4. The article’s context is wonderful and it totally agrees with my
thesis. Gender stereotypes and gender roles are killers of
women success and their actual abilities to thrash in their life.
Course concepts connections
The best description about gender stereotypes can be finding in
the textbook’s chapter 7 on page 161, the Adjective Checklist
Study of Williams and Best suggests that gender stereotypes are
baseless and ambiguous because study mentions men to be more
active, aggressive, extrovert and open as compared to women,
but the uncertainty about the basis of the development of gender
stereotypes still remains alive. No one knows the factors and
boundaries of gender stereotypes. The context of chapter 7
thrashes the gender roles that are based on cultural stereotypes
and makes a statement against them. Gender roles are not based
on the personal abilities of women or men. Cultural
incorporates gender roles from nowhere. Women are equally
able to have the leading role as men. By defining the terms
gender roles, gender stereotypes, and gender identity gender
role means the extent to which a person adopts the gender
specific behavior defined by his or her culture. Gender
stereotypes means psychological and behavioral characteristics
attached with men and women and gender identity means the
extent to which a person has awareness that he or she adopts the
gender role. But the question is there any credibility of gender
role and gender stereotypes that the culture propagates through
generation after generation defined by our textbook? The
answer is simply no. That’s what the film depicts and proves the
concept of gender roles in her culture wrong by becoming the
leader of her tribe.
Real life issues
Gender stereotypes and gender roles are literally the issues of
real life. Women are being affected by the cultural gender
stereotypes and gender roles. Different countries have different
gender stereotypes. For example, in Afghanistan, girls are not
allowed to go to schools especially in those areas where there is
an influence of Taliban. This is totally wrong concept. Taliban
5. cannot give any factual reason behind this stereotype except
their vague and pathetic mentality.
Secondly, the leader of the family is supposed to be the man in
most part of the world. This is even a gender stereotype which
restricts women to be the housewives with no other available
profession. Moreover, we can calculate the number of women
who are leading the countries as the head of their state. The
numbers of women who are the head of their countries are less
as compared to the men in same situation. Hillary Clinton
competed in the election but failed. There can be some other
reasons behind her defeat and those reasons are not the part of
our paper, but Britain, Germany, Bangladesh, and Poland are
the countries who have female head of the government as I
remember. The reason behind this is also the concept of gender
stereotypes and roles. There is the mentality of people which
prevails is that females are not able than to lead the countries.
Future research
After watching film and analyzing the external sources the
gender stereotypes and gender roles demands research on their
factors and boundaries. There is a need to evaluate as much
cultures as possible to know why the people develop and believe
in their gender stereotypes and gender roles while not knowing
the reasons behind those gender stereotypes and gender roles.
DQ and Discussion
What are the factors which develop gender stereotypes? Is
religion one of the reasons of gender stereotypes? What does
the comparison between monotheistic, polytheistic, and
atheistic societies suggest about the presence of gender
stereotypes in each society respectively?
What would be the positive outcomes if there are some effective
interventions started to eradicate gender stereotypes? Do female
leaders of some countries like Britain and Germany quantifies
the negation of gender stereotypes?
Conclusion
To conclude, gender stereotypes and gender roles are needed to
be redefined and reevaluate for the best of the people’s
6. prosperity. Until now, gender stereotypes are totally baseless
and ambiguous. The film, two external sources, and the chapter
7 of the textbook describe similar perspective which goes
against the practice of gender stereotypes and gender roles.
Every connection, whether external connections or course
connections, describes that cultural gender stereotypes and
gender roles need concrete basis to be established in any culture
with dignity and credibility. Until now the cultural gender
stereotypes and gender roles are baseless and ambiguous
because there is no criterion mentioned to judge anyone’s
ability to hold the leading role. Cultures are wrongly assigning
male members right to have the leading roles in culture just
because there role is admitted in the culture as a stereotype.

Psychology of Gender (PSY 321)
Guidelines for Film Analysis Proposal and Presentation
General Information
• You will be asked to give an approximately 12-minute
presentation in which you analyze a feature-
length film (of your choosing) that relates to specific
psychology of gender concepts or issues.
• The presentations take place in class on MON, 12/4; TH, 12/7;
and TH, 12/14. Note that your
attendance on your non-presentation dates figures into your
presentation grade.
• Your presentation must incorporate at least two scholarly,
peer-reviewed sources related to your film
and psychology of gender topic area—as well as specific
information from our course readings
(textbook and/or Canvas DQ articles).
• Your presentation must be centered around a coherent thesis,
which is a point that you seek to argue
and support with evidence in your presentation.
• As a preliminary step in preparing your presentation, you will
11. be asked to turn in a proposal.
• You will find additional useful information (such as a list of
example films and an example
proposal) in the Film Analysis Proposal and Presentation
module in Canvas.
NOTE: The main point of this assignment is for you to identify
a relevant feature-length film and
analyze how it relates to specific psychology of gender concepts
or research findings. These concepts
or research findings should NOT be addressed explicitly (by
name) in the film; it is your job to
make these connections in your presentation. You should also
NOT use scholarly articles that
analyze the film for you, as this is your job.
Presentation Proposal (30 points) – Due Thursday, 10/26 (post
to Canvas by beginning of class)
• Your presentation proposal consists of the following parts:
• a clearly written description of the film (in your own words)
• a clearly written description of the gender psychology topics
that you plan to address in your
presentation (be sure to identify and explain specific and
relevant textbook concepts, provide
the corresponding text page #s, and explain how they will be
useful in your analysis),
• a direct articulation of your thesis statement, and
• two abstracts of scholarly, peer-reviewed articles in detailed-
record format that pertain to
your presentation topic (be sure to include the full reference
information for each article).
12. • Combine your proposal narrative and two abstracts into one
file and upload the file to the Proposal
assignment link in Canvas (in the Film Analysis Proposal and
Presentation module).
• Refer to the Film Analysis Proposal and Presentation module
for info on writing a good thesis
statement and to the Library Resources tab for info on how to

good sources, do not hesitate to come see me.
Film Analysis Presentation (100 points) – MON, 12/4; TH,
12/7; and TH, 12/14
Supplementary Materials
Submit the following materials to Canvas to the Film Analysis
Presentation assignment link (the
submission deadline is 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, 12/14, regardless
of your presentation date):
• Your presentation notes (detailed, typed notes that address the
requested elements of the
presentation)
• Your presentation PowerPoint (the more schematic notes you
display during your presentation)
• Your two external scholarly sources (upload pdf versions of
the full sources to Canvas). If a source
is not available electronically, turn in a paper copy. I advise
you NOT to post links to the articles,
as these often do not bring me to the article.
13. 2
Format of the Presentation and Helpful Tips
• Prepare two sets of notes: 1) detailed, typed notes that
thoroughly address the requested elements
of the presentation, and 2) a more schematic PowerPoint (or
equivalent) presentation that you will
display during your presentation.
• Your detailed notes will be more than you can cover in the
allotted time frame. I will use these
notes—in addition to the content and style of your
presentation—to assign your grade (evaluating, in
particular, the depth of your analysis).
• In your analysis, be sure to incorporate at least two external,
scholarly, peer-reviewed sources
AND at least two connections to course concepts, theories, or
research findings from the
Helgeson text and/or the Canvas DQ articles.
• Make sure your PowerPoint is not too detailed and text-heavy.
I will assess how effective it is
visually.
• Make your presentation clear and well-organized.
• Avoid all forms of plagiarism in your detailed notes and
PowerPoint presentation. This means
providing proper attribution to all sources and using quotation
marks appropriately. Your detailed
notes and your PowerPoint should have a References section
14. that includes all sources cited in
your analysis and a citation for your film. This is extremely
important—carefully read all
information on avoiding plagiarism posted in Canvas.
• Pay attention to your presentation style (make eye contact,
avoid reading directly from notes, etc.).
• Keep within the time limit (~12 minutes). In order to ensure
that each student has the same amount
of presentation time, I will keep time and stop you after a set
time. It is thus your responsibility,
when preparing your presentation, to make sure that everything
you need to cover (including class
discussion of your question) fits within the time limit.
• On your presentation date, come to class early and get your
presentation set up on the class
computer BEFORE the class period begins.
Content of the Presentation (Address the following elements
DURING your presentation):
• Specify your topic area and describe the importance of
studying it.
• Describe your film briefly.
• State your thesis.
• Explain how you used your two external scholarly sources to
analyze your film and address your
thesis. You need to refer to these external sources directly by
author name and year (e.g., Smith &
Jones, 2005…). Be careful not to provide detailed annotations
(summaries) of your sources. This
part of your presentation should focus on providing the main
themes and concepts in your sources
15. that helped you analyze your film and address your thesis.
• Describe the two connections that you made to course
concepts, theories, or research findings from
either the Helgeson text or the Canvas articles (these are
considered your course concept
connections). You need to provide author names, year, and page
number for both of these
connections (e.g., Helgeson, 2012, p. 204). (Note that these
course concept connections are in
addition to the material you incorporate from your two external
scholarly sources.)
• Describe your main conclusions, particularly with respect to
your thesis.
• Describe how the topic you analyzed connects to and informs
some real-life problem or issue.
• Specify directions for future research in your topic area (i.e.,
what questions remain unanswered in
your topic area?).
• Ask the class at least one thought-provoking question on your
topic to spur class discussion. This
can be anywhere in your presentation. Follow the guidelines for
writing good discussion questions
when preparing this question. Though you only need to ask one
question that generates discussion,
you may want to prepare two questions in case one falls flat.

Film Analysis Proposal
“Easy A”
Film Description:
Easy A is a film about a high-school girl named Olive. At the
beginning of the movie, Olive lies to her friend Rhiannon about
losing her virginity over one particular weekend. This begins a
cascade of events that upend Olive’s high school experience.
First, the local group of Christian girls decides that they need to
become involved in Olive’s business due to her newly ‘sinful’
nature. Eventually an argument gets Olive sent to the
principal’s office where she meets Brandon. Brandon is a gay
teenager who wants Olive to pretend to sleep with him in order
to ‘prove’ to the other students that he’s heterosexual.
22. She agrees, and before long, the entire school considers
Olive to be a promiscuous tramp. Soon she has a thriving
business pretending to sleep with boys in the school in order to
bolster their reputations. She embraces her ‘new identity’ and
acts the part. Eventually, one of the boys she pretended to sleep
with lies and says Olive gave him an STD (that he actually got
from sleeping with a teacher’s wife), and Olive decides to come
clean. The movie ends with Olive getting together with an old
crush of hers, Todd, who didn’t believe the rumors about her,
and pledging to keep her sex life secret in the future.
Topic Description:
There is a lot of exploration of gender double standards in Easy
A. For my topic, I want to explore how the girls and boys are
treated differently regarding social activity or gender role. In
the movie, sexual behavior and sexual activity raises the boys’
social status while it causes a lot of problems for Olive, who is
seen to be a ‘slut’. In addition to the explicit presentation of
this issue, I also found it interesting to note that Olive is
sympathetic in part because she actually is still a virgin. If she
weren’t a virgin, would she be as sympathetic?
Thesis:
Women who are virgins are considered to be high status, and
women who have had a lot of sexual partners are considered to
be low status, while the reverse is true for men.

Title: Sex and Punishment: An Examination of Sexual
Consequences and the Sexual Double Standard in Teen
Programming
23. Author: Aubrey, Jennifer Stevens
Source: Sex Roles, Vol. 50, Nos. 7/8, April 2004
Abstract:
A content analysis was conducted to examine sexual
consequences on teen programming. The sample consisted of
prime-time television dramas that featured characters between
the ages of 12 and 22 years. Two major goals guided the study.
First, the types of sexual consequences in teen programming
were investigated. Results showed that emotional and social
consequences far outnumbered physical consequences. Second,
the portrayal of the sexual double standard was investigated.
Negative consequences were more common in scenes in which
female characters initiated sexual activities than in scenes in
which male characters initiated sexual activities. Implications
for future content analyses and media-effects research
are discussed.

Title: The Sexual Double Standard: Fact or Fiction?
Authors: Marks, Michael J. and Fraley, Chris R.
Source: Sex Roles, Vol. 52, Nos. 3/4, February 2005
Abstract:
In contemporary society it is widely believed that men are
socially rewarded for sexual activity, whereas women are
derogated for sexual activity. To determine whether a sexual
double standard exists, both undergraduate (n = 144) and
Internet (n = 8,080) participants evaluated experimental targets
who were described as either male or female and as having a
24. variable number of sexual partners. Targets were more likely to
be derogated as the number of sexual partners increased, and
this effect held for both male and female targets. These results
suggest that, although people do evaluate others as a function of
sexual activity, people do not necessarily hold men and women
to different sexual standards.
