Compilation of Mathematicians and Their Contributions
I. Greek Mathematicians
Thales of Miletus
Birthdate: 624 B.C.
Died: 547–546 B. C.
Nationality: Greek
Title: Regarded as "Father of Science"
Contributions: * He is credited with the first use of deductive reasoning applied to geometry. * Discovery that a circle is bisected by its diameter, that
the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal and that vertical angles are equal. * Accredited with foundation of the Ionian school of Mathematics
that was a centre of learning and research. * Thales theorems used in Geometry:
1. The pairs of opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines are equal. 2. The base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal. 3. The sum of the
angles in a triangle is 180В°. 4. An angle ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The attribution is held to be anachronistic however by J J O'Connor and E F Robertson who name Theon of Alexandria as a more likely author. 4.
Phaenomena, a treatise on spherical astronomy, survives in Greek; it is quite similar to On the Moving Sphere by Autolycus of Pitane, who flourished
around 310 BC.
* Famous five postulates of Euclid as mentioned in his book Elements
1. Point is that which has no part. 2. Line is a breadthless length. 3. The extremities of lines are points. 4. A straight line lies equally with respect to the
points on itself. 5. One can draw a straight line from any point to any point.
* The Elements also include the following five "common notions": 1. Things that are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another (Transitive
property of equality). 2. If equals are added to equals, then the wholes are equal. 3. If equals are subtracted from equals, then the remainders are equal.
4. Things that coincide with one another equal one another (Reflexive Property). 5. The whole is greater than the part.

A Scientific Theory Of Consciousness
Whether a scientific theory of consciousness could be provided requires the theory to account for properties of sensations. Place thinks some
philosophers struggle to accept a scientific theory by falling for the phenomenological fallacy. Some have posited descriptions of experience lye within
the mental cinema (pg. 49). Place characterized the fallacy of thinking that when we perceive something green we are perceiving something green in the
mind as 'the phenomenological fallacy'. He writes, if we assume, for example, that when a subject reports a green after–image he is asserting the
occurrence inside himself of an object which is literally green, it is clear that we have on our hands an entity for which there is no place in the world
of physics. He proposes the descriptions of green after–images are descriptions of a sort of normal response in contexts involving green light.
In "Sensations are Brain Processes", J.J.C Smart argues that "in so far as a sensation statement is a report of something, that something is in fact a brain
process" (Smart 1959 145). The 'Sensation–Brain Process Identity Theory' states: For any type of sensation state 'S', there is a type of brain state 'B'
such that: 'S = B'. In defense of this thesis Smart clears up Place's identity distinction with his sense of strict identity. S and B are strictly identical
when 'S' and 'B' are two names for a single object.

Why Beauty id Truth by Ian Stewart
Why Beauty is truth: A History of Symmetry by Ian Stewart is in depth on how mathematicians came about symmetry. Instead of coming across
symmetry by geometry as someone today might think, Stewart shows how it became an idea by algebra. Most of the book is told in chronological
order from the early Egyptians and Babylonians discovery of the quadratic equation and leading up to the impossibility to solve the quintic equation.
Through each chapter we see how mathematicians get one step closer to solving the quintic, and their struggles they faced along the way.
Early Equations The earliest record of the quadratic that we know of dates back to the Babylonians, solved on a tablet. Historians and Mathematicians
do not have any clue about how the Babylonians came to solve the quadratic, but think that they came across is geometrically. Stewart shows how
Euclid's Elements of Geometry introduced the basic methods for constructing a proof. Included in Elements in Proposition 9 of Book I is how Euclid
shows how to bisect an angle with only a compass and a straightedge. Elements did not include information on how to trisect and angle though, which
could have been used for the construction of a regular 7–gon. It was Euclid's Elements that inspired mathematicians to take it one step further and solve
the things that Euclid had left out, such as squaring the circle with only a compass and a straightedge. The difficulty of these problems led
mathematicians to change the way that they

In considering this case and within the social work profession, there are many theories and interventions that can be applied to the SRS's CPS program
including: contingency, conflict resolution, organizational, systems, and empowerment theories. These theories do not operate alone, instead they are
combined with one another. The conflict resolution theoretical approach will be utilized through the task–centered model with evidence of NASW's
Code of Ethics, because this is specific to this case. An ethical practitioner should be knowledgeable of these practices and evidence that supports them

The Biological Perspective : Psychology Essay
PSYCHOLOGY 1010: CONTEMERORY PSYCHOLOGY:
1.The Biological Perspective: This is the study of exactly how the physical events within the physical body interact with the events in the external
environment. This is expressed by our perceptions, memories, behaviors and interactions with everything around us. We can think about our heredity
and genetic makeup and the influences that has on each one of us as an individual. Then think about the stress of poor health and illness and how we
may express our emotions with those around us. Since we are diverse as individuals we rely on our physiological make up and the stimuli of our
environment to adapt to each situation. This human biology helps us to constantly adapt and survive in an ever–changing world.
2.The Behavioral Perspective: This perspective is based on environmental rewards and punishers to encourage or discourage behaviors. This is usually
notes through direct observation of the particular act in the specific environment. Social cognitive learning is used to further explain values,
expectations, and intentions of the individual. This theory was the main stream behaviorist theory for over 50 years, as it focuses on precision and

The Philosophy Of Classroom Management
Theoretical Introduction Philosophy of Classroom Management When I think of my future classroom, I imagine it to a home. I plan for my
students and I to be a "big family", and it will still be a learning environment. While I am teaching a lesson I would like for my students to be quite
when they should be listening and participating when it is time for them to participate. I am there to guide their learning, the students will be allowed to
share, correct, and exchange information when the time is appropriate. I will have the traditional teaching style which is the students paying attention
to the teacher, then once the students seem to understand the content they will then be able to move around and interact with other student in either
group discussions or at the learning centers throughout the classroom. My classroom will be nice and bright to keep up the positive energy, and it
will still be conducted as a learning environment for my students, and they will understand that everything that they learn in my classroom will travel
with them till they are old, and they will be able to understand why they are in school and what their purpose is in life. Assumptions about the
Nature of Young People and Learning Every young person wants to satisfy their basic needs which usually tends to be power, love, freedom and fun.

Analysis of the Article 1% by Joseph Stiglitz
In the article "Of the 1%, by the 1%, for the 1%" Joseph Stiglitz, a noble prize winning economist, argues that the upper 1% controls about 40% of
all wealth in America. This top 1% has taken about a quarter of all income in America, and has seen their income rise about 18% in the past
decade. This has made the inequality between classes in the US expand. Eventually, this inequality gap will even hurt the top 1%, because the
other 99% will either fight for a bigger piece or just stop working all together. The top 1% can buy anything they need, but their fate realizes on the
other 99% to work hard and not fight back. If the 99% stopped working, there would be a simple way to gain back money... that would be to raise
taxes on the rich. However, the rich get rich by capital gains, which have a low tax policy. So overall, the upper percent can eventually learn, but a
majority of the time it is too little too late. Throughout the article, Stiglitz approaches the topic of the 1% and how that prestigious group rarely tries
benefiting anyone besides his or her self. Joseph Stiglitz gets that point across and explains it well within his article. The topic of the 1% only
benefiting his or her self is extensively explained in the statement about the rich not caring about common problems. The rich has a large sum of money
that they could invest into infrastructure, education, war and technology, but the upper 1% does not want to do that because it does benefit that group

Street Code : The Cultural Argument Essay
Street Code: The Cultural Argument
The Elijah Anderson's article, "Code of the Streets" is a perfect illustration for cultural arguments because it involves environments that are susceptible
to learning a criminal culture; even up to a point of promoting that type of criminal behavior as "normal". It also has links to Differential Association
and Social Learning theories of crime
Culture transmission theories or cultural theories are theories that try to explain why, at a macro–level, some environments are breeding grounds for
criminal behavior. Also why these types of environments develop a culture that its participants consider this type of criminal behavior is acceptable and
necessary (Feldmeyer, Cultural Transmission Theories, 2015).
And on the other hand how "Code of the Streets" shows links to the Differential Association and Social Learning theories of crime. The Differential
Association (closely related to Social Disorganization theory), developed by Edwin Sutherland, and Social Learning theory, developed by Ronald
Akers, both theories of crime are theories that try to explain, at a micro–level, why individuals rather than groups of individuals commit crime
(Feldmeyer, Differential Association and Social Learning, 2015).

policies for given circumstances (Deegan, 2003, p. 90).
Therefore, the result of normative accounting research should provide prescription to inform others about the optimal accounting approach to adopt and
why this particular approach is considered optimal.
Normative accounting research has resulted accounting theories that are relevant for the setting of financial reporting standards (Mozes, 1992, p. 93).
In this case, the FASB's (U.S Financial Accounting Standard Board) call for normative research can be interpreted as a request for accounting
researchers to investigate whether the user specific and decision–specific qualities that standard–setters require are present in the accounting data

Cold Fusion Research Paper

As the world becomes more aware of the growing need for a more abundant energy supply, one energy source has been swept under the carpet and
virtually ignored. This source is cold fusion. Cold fusion is:
"A reaction that occurs under certain conditions in supersaturated metal hydrides (metals with lots of hydrogen or heavy hydrogen dissolved in them).
It produces excess heat, helium, and a very low level of neutrons. In some experiments the host metal has been transmuted into other elements. Cold
fusion has been seen with palladium, titanium, nickel and with some superconducting ceramics." (Infinite)

If they had gone to the community before the press, a new scientific discovery might have been developed and researched, however there are only a
few believers in cold fusion that are still researching it today.
A general way physicists determine if a reaction is nuclear or chemical is via tritium (an isotope of hydrogen) production. Chemical reactions do not
produce tritium, while most nuclear reactions do. It is important to note that some forms of fusion (nuclear reaction) can occur where tritium is not
produced. (Matejowsky) Pons and Fleishmann claimed to produce a few tritium atoms, but their claimed results were never replicated because they did
not publish their experiment. The exact method they used was not replicated until it was too late and cold fusion already had a bad name and been
renounced. Even once the method they used had been reproduced the results were not consistent enough to convince the community. This resulted in
the scientific community believing the entire idea and concept of cold fusion to be a hoax. As a result, any young scientists entering the community
were turned away from cold fusion as was observed at the Seventh International Conference on Cold Fusion. "The younger ones had bailed years ago,
fearing career damage from the cold fusion stigma." (Platt) Most scientists that thought the possibility of cold fusion was real either left it

The Findings After Testing Quantized Inertia On The Emdrive
The purpose of this article was to report the findings after testing quantized inertia on the EmDrive. The authors predicted that the thrust produced by
the EmDrive can be explained assuming that the inertial mass of the photons is caused by unruh radiation. Multiple experiments took place in several
independent labs, and produced results that were similar to the predicted values for thrust. The computations of the results did not sufficiently model
wave oscillations in 3D, thus the authors recommend further testing in order to produce more accurate findings.
The text is formatted as a journal article and has been peer reviewed. It was published on August 31, 2015, in Europhyiscs Letters, a journal founded
in 1986 by the European Physical Society. The article references multiple sources that are also academically reliable.
This source will be used to introduce one of the current theories attempting to explain how the EmDrive produces thrust. The article also addresses the

Dualism of Human Nature Essay
The Dualism of Human Nature and Its Social Conditions– Emile Durkheim
According to Durkheim's work The Dualism of Human Nature and Its Social Conditions (DHN), a man has a dual nature which is made up of the
body (individual) and the soul (social). He sheds light on this by citing post–Durkheim theories which he does not agree with and which do not solve
the problem of this dual nature. Durkheim also uses The Elementary Forms of the Religious Life (EFRL) to discuss the religious aspect of the body
and soul. Upon reading, it is discovered that as society evolves, so does this "dual nature." In DHN, Durkheim argues that sociology must examine
what an individual consists of because it is a result of the whole society. It is this society ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
There were also 2 other theories that attempted to explain this "dualism of human nature" : (1) The Ontological Explanation by Plato– man's inward
struggle consists of being "good" and being unethical. Plato says that "because we are part of both, we are necessarily in conflict with ourselves."
(p.4) And a theory by Kant (2) Sensitivity and Reason– we have an ability to think individually or collectively. Durkheim feels that these 2 theories
only re–state the problem it does not resolve it. They also assume that man's nature is above explanation, but we should be able to explain it.
Again, in EFRL, Durkheim shows religiosity from a sociological standpoint in which "individual consciousness" is combined with "common
consciousness." To look at it another way, individuals use signs and symbols to interpret and/or explain their feelings. If the group all uses the same
signs and symbols, it then becomes the symbol or representation of the group's sacredness. Even if the individual is no longer part of the collective
society, he still holds the sacredness of the signs/symbols to the same high standard, and he does this by way of festivals, ceremonies, etc.

Luke's one–dimensional view of power is centred on this concept and in order to develop understanding as to how power is achieved and maintained
within society, an analyses of decision–making in the public arena must be made. It also contests that the group that holds and maintains power can
be determined by looking at who succeeds when there is political conflict. (Lukes, 1974:12) It emphasises the importance of the observed behaviour
of those in power and analyses the effects on the wider community when making decisions (Lukes 1974:25) Lukes spends a lot of time discussing
Dahl's theory of power through his own theory. The power held by a specific group may be either, 'overt' or 'covert' but the triumph of power is at the

Personal Identity: Bundle and Ego Theory
Personal Identity
What explains the unity of consciousness is the fact that experiences are casually interconnected. My reading of the unity of consciousness states that
the series of mental happenings and events are interconnected together simply by causal relation. The Unity of Life is the linked experiences of a
person joint with their personality and ego. Also the Unity of life states that experiences are connected over time.
Between two theories, I believe that the Bundle theory works well based on describing Personal identity as a bundle of various thoughts, perceptions
and a person's state of mind. Parfit argued in the case of the Split–Brain case that the bundle theory can support both normal brains and split–brains
cases. Whereas, the Ego Theory can only account for normal brains.
The Ego Theory explains the person and their continual existence over time, by describing the existence of an ego and focuses on different
experiences throughout a person's life. An ego theorist may believe that a person's life can be defined by comprising experiences undergone by the
same ego. In the Bundle Theory, people are a series of different states, events, thoughts, that unites through the actual experience and memories. Each of
these series establishes a life that rejects the existence of a person to exist separately from one's body.
The Ego Theory explains the unity of a person life; the fact that all of the experiences in this life are by the same person. Ego theory is much

Krauss is nothing more than a black mailing criminal and, as a "opportunistic scientist", is motivated by a lust for recognition.
The theme of scientists in search of "the pot of gold" is mentioned by the characters of Cantor's Dilemma. Cantor states, "...most scientists suffer from
some sort of dissociative personality: on one side, the rigorous believer in the experimental method, with its set of rules and its ultimate objective of
advancing knowledge; on the other, the fallible human being with all the accompanying foibles".1 Cantor continues to describe the issue of
simultaneous discovery and then strikes right at the heart of the scientists who step beyond the bounds of the scientific method. He states, "...a
scientists drive, his self–esteem, are really based on a very simple desire: recognition by one's peers".2 Recognition is what the "Nobel" is about, and if a
fictional scientist has to ignore the methodology that governs science to get it, so be it. Yet, the Nobel Prize is real and so are the deviant scientists.

This assignment evaluates the topic of reiki, which is considered as a form of healing. To begin, it provides a definition and highlights reiki's
application in mainstream medicine. This forms scientific assumptions of the use of the scientific method. This highlights credibility, methodology and
reliability as a precursor of application to public health. As a result, it firstly demonstrates credibility through the process of gathering scientific facts
from reliable sources. Journals are found using the British Psychological Society (BPS) and PsycINFO. This subsequently provides empirical research
for critical review. Secondly, it explores methodology from a selection of these journals. It includes the necessity of operational definitions, value and
measurement, and construct validity. Finally, it therefore demonstrates the reliability of results as scientific data, to infer robust conclusions. This will
provide the basis of the argument to evaluate if reiki is science or pseudoscience. Reiki Application Firstly, reiki is described as an ancient Japanese
form of therapeutic healing (Baldwin, Rand & Schwartz, 2013; Baldwin, Wagers & Schwartz, 2008; Cuneo et al., 2011; Diaz–Rodriguez et al., 2011;
Richeson, Spross, Lutz & Peng, 2010; Shore, 2004). Its efficacy claims to improve human welfare–a shared perspective of many science applications

The Social Convention Of Drinking Alcohol And The Party...
Sarah, an eighteen year old female, moves from a small town in the North of England to a big city in order to attend University. The city is
renowned for its nightlife. She goes from living with her parents, who she has a very strong relationship with, to moving into University halls with
five females who were all the same age. Her parents practice teetotalism and have since she was born. Sarah is anxious about joining student life as
she has never been interested in the social convention of drinking alcohol and the party lifestyle that is associated with being a student. She instead
enjoys other things such as reading, watching films and shopping. Sarah moves in on a Sunday afternoon after everyone else has moved in, her
parents leave around 2pm. After this Sarah decides to sit in the communal area in hope of making friends with the girls she lives with. Upon meeting
the flat mates it becomes evident that all five are enthusiastic about the 'party lifestyle' and a friendship is growing between them regarding this
lifestyle that they all have in common. They all talk about going out that night, after they have finished moving in and settled. Sarah feels strongly
against this idea. However the other girls start pressuring her, saying things such as "Come out just for a few", "We won't stay out long, just maybe
'til 3 or 4am" and "Come on, don't be boring". Eventually at around 10pm, she finally agrees to go out with them despite the fact she hates drinking

The Steps Of Scientific Method
The scientific method is when you have a specific problem and you go through steps to try and solve your problem. The steps of scientific method are
develop a theory, check and analyze your theory, explain your hypothesis, and prove your hypothesis. Whether that hypothesis could be wrong, you can
still change it. That is the best thing about theories, hypothesis, and the scientific method.
An example of the scientific method is my automobile does not crank. I would check for gas because if there is no gas, then the car will not crank. I
put gas in the car tank and car cranks.
Another example of scientific method is the remote does not work. I will check the batteries, to see if they are dead. I take out the batteries. Then, I
would, find another set of batteries to replace the old ones. After putting in the new batteries, the remote works.
A way Scientific method could be used in my everyday life would be when the computer does not turn on. First, I would check to see if the power
plug has been tampered with or is loose. If the power plug has not been tampered with or been loose then I would unplug and replug the power cord.
This method has not worked because the computer will still not turn on. So, I will try another method.
Since, that did not work, I will, now, look to see if it is the monitor. I have pressed the power button. Monitor flashes and the green light appears. So,
there is nothing wrong with the monitor. This method did not work either, so I am going to

The denigration of memorisation is in fact a denigration of knowledge, and ultimately a defeat of the educational ideal of stimulating problem solving
and independent critical thinking. As Hirsch (1996:247) points out:
"Independent–mindedness is always predicated on relevant knowledge: one cannot think critically unless one has a lot of knowledge of the issue at
hand. Critical thinking is not merely giving one's opinion." In fact, common sense tells one that the person who can think critically and who can solve
problems is, without exception, one who has sufficient knowledge of the relevant issue or problem.
Thus, to attain success in an exam, both in questions that are straightforward and questions that require independent critical thinking and problem
solving one must, first, understand the subject content and, second, one must commit the subject content to memory.

The, The And, And Demand Side Theory And Neil Smith 's...
This paper published by geographer Chris Hamnett traces the popularity of research into gentrification and examines the competing theories of its
origin and dynamics: namely David Ley's humanist and demand–side theory and Neil Smith's supply–side "rent–gap" theory. Hamnett argues that both
theories provide an incomplete picture of this complex process, and thus a cohesive explanation of gentrification must incorporate ideas from both.
This is argued through the critiquing the two differing viewpoints: examining their potential flaws and citing real world data from studies of other
scholars. Additionally, Hamnett also the viewpoints of contemporary theorists to further his critique of the two theories, and to construct his proposed
multi–dimensional explanation of gentrification. Despite its tight construction, the paper is limited by the lack of real–life data accessible to the author
at the time of writing and the relative youth of the topic in the field of geography, both are points alluded to by the author. Nevertheless, the paper
provides an interesting new framework of discussion to the field that reconciles and integrates two previously opposing viewpoints.
Hamnett begins the paper by arguing that the reason behind the modern geographers' sustained interest in studying gentrification is because of the
underlying debate between the so–called "liberal humanists" who "stress the key role of choice, culture, consumption and consumer demand" and the

Module 1 Reading/Discussion Questions Chapter 1 1. Explain some of the benefits a student may gain by studying philosophy. A student may gain
several benefits from studying philosophy. For instance, students may learn how to evaluate arguments, analyze ideas and draw individual conclusions.
Philosophy teaches how to make judgements with precise evaluation based on ethics and morality, taking under consideration all the factors that make
an evaluation precise. This is useful because one must have the capacity to analyze situations and develop a solution in the tribulations of life. Hence,
studying philosophy is beneficial regardless of major. 2. Explain the Socratic Method of Teaching. Is this a useful way for students to learn? The
Socratic Method of Teaching develops critical thinking. It involves examination, analysis, evaluation, and a combination of thoughts and ideas. This is
with the purpose to bring questions into sharper focus and provide a foundation for the answers. It is a useful way for students to learn because some
situations in life will require careful analysis and evaluation in order to make an executive decision, and the Socratic Method of Teaching provides the
tools to do so. 3. Explain how critical thinking can be used to analyze a philosophical issue. In the book, critical thinking is defined as the engagement
of a thinker in rational deliberation, investigation of facts and reasons, and the evaluation of arguments. By employing rational thinking, one is

Essay Analyzing Career Theories
It is simple to look at an individual's life and analyze and critique their choices based on our own opinions and experiences. Is that fair? No. We may
see their actions clearly but the reasoning behind these is what we should focus on when it comes to judging someone's behavior or circumstances. A
common judgment made about a person is based on their career. In our society, it would behoove us to look at the path that leads to becoming a doctor
instead of a drug dealer.

Finally I reached the realistic period and I began to focus my education to prepare for a medical career. As I have evolved, I find it simpler to make
life–changing choices. I am exceedingly more decisive than in previous years because I am more secure with my internal self and due to my
experience, have the capacity to make educated decisions. TRANS Holland's Theory of Careers, while very useful, represents a societal failing.
Habitually we find ourselves judging people based on their preliminary persona; however, more often than not we find out that there is much more
under the surface. Many entertainers appear to be confident and outgoing, but basic psychology confirms that often their insecurities drive them to
seek approval and praise from the public that comes with those careers. Ginsberg and Super's Theories of Career Development have one major flaw.
This theory does not account for those individuals whom choose a career in childhood and never stray from their initial path. Whereas others come to
a standstill at one stage and never complete the process. Although the ability to consistently and effectively apply both of these theories in a myriad of
situations speak to their legitimacy, clearly it is necessary to seek other career theories to supplement ones conceptualization of this topic.

Belinda Jeanette Prescott
Liberty University A Critique of Dr. Jay E. Adams, Dr. William Backus & Marie Chapian Counseling Theories Concise Summary of Theory Adams
(1986), has developed a four step process in which he lines up and bases off of II Timothy 3:14–17, the four steps include, teaching, conviction,
correction, and disciplined training in righteousness. Adams says "just as evangelism always must precede edification, these four steps must always
occur in the same order" (p. 13). Adams bases his counseling concept on these four steps and II Timothy 3:14–17. Adams (1986) is not one to integrate
psychology into the Christian counseling process. Adams (1986) teaches in this book that Scripture is the only way to counsel people and that
integrating psychology into the counseling practice goes against scripture. Backus (2000) gives a three step process to becoming a happy person,
they include realizing your misbeliefs, removing your misbeliefs, and replacing those misbeliefs with truth. He references Proverbs 23:7a which
reads "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he" (KJV). This is telling us that however we think of ourselves in our hearts, we will believe those
thoughts as truths even if they are lies. Satan has a way of creeping into our thought lives and altering the thought pattern of those who will let him,

How Of A Lab Report
How to Write a Lab Report
The purpose of a lab report is to describe your lab experiment in such detail (including what was used, when it took place, who was present, how the
lab went, what happened, what results were found, and the overall discussions and conclusions) that your described experiment or lab could be
replicated by someone of similar education and training who was not present. A lab report should be written as a description of what you did, not
instructions for doing the lab. Another goal (especially at this level) is to thoroughly explain what you did and what you learned.
When writing a lab report, do not use personal pronouns such as "we" or "I", and so on. For example, write, "The egg was placed in a container" rather
than "I placed the egg in a container". The report should be written in past tense. Your paragraphs should be one and a half spaced. Choose a
professional font and use a font size of 10, 11, or 12. ALL WRITING MUST BE YOUR OWN WORDS even if you were working with other people!
A lab report contains the following components:
Title
The title should be concise (try for less than ten words) and should reflect the factual content or purpose of the lab / paper. A good title is
straightforward and uses keywords that researchers in a particular field will recognize (such as 'pH Lab', or 'Virtual pH Lab').

Scientific Management was comprised of four principles:
–Every step of individuals work is analyzed in a scientific method to come up with the most effective way for getting the work done. It is the way to
develop and come up with the best possible approach for an individual to preform a task by examining instruments needed and by measuring the
maximum amount of work a worker can do in a day.
–Matching workers with the job that is best suited for them in a scientific method. According to Taylor everyone was able to do his or her best in a
specific job that was devised. The management's role was to match the job with the worker that has the capability to do it and train them accordingly.
–Managers should provide supervision and cooperate with workers to make sure the job is done in an effective way.
–Mangers and workers responsibilities are divided, managers spend their time supervising and planning while workers continue their work productively.

The Knowledge Of God 's Existence And Fundamental...
Using solely reason, we can obtain genuine knowledge about God's existence and fundamental characteristics. Although the more complete knowledge
of God unveiled in revelation cannot be strictly proven through the use of reason, this knowledge is consistent with that which we have come to know
through reason. Therefore, it is entirely reasonable to hold the Catholic narrative of God as truth.
Modern society, however, insists that only what is proven through science is worth believing. This attitude stems from the belief that thescientific
method employed in science is the only clear–cut method for determining truth. This is why renowned physicist Stephen Hawking's scientific
explanation for the complexity and origin of the universe is well respected by many. Hawking's Scientific Determinism supposes that we are in fact
biological machines whose decisions are determined by the chemical reactions that occur within the body, thus eliminating the concept of free will.
Furthermore, Scientific Determinism effectively removes God from the picture by insisting that scientific laws cannot be laws "if [they] only hold
when some supernatural being decides not to intervene." Hawking's theory is supposed to be trustworthy because it relies on the scientific method of
determining causes and their effects. However, this viewpoint, as "scientific" as it may seem, fails to provide multiple causes or explanations to critical
questions. As Thomas Nagel points out, Hawking fails to

Interpersonal Communication Film Analysis
While any relationship can be difficult, romantic ones seem to be the most complicated. Interpersonal communication can be defined in many ways but
is usually described as communication among those in a close relationship (Alberts 189). The Break Up is a perfect movie that will show examples of
the definitions used. Individuals initiate relationships with those they see as attractive, while physical appearance is critical in forming a relationship
so is a mental and the ability to communicate effectively. When initiating a potential romantic relationship flirting comes in many forms. Ambiguous

She was attracted to his sense of humor and his assertiveness. The last primary force would be similarity meaning a degree to which people have the
same values, interests, and background (Alberts 192). Think about a friend or spouse and their personalities, beliefs, and interests and think how much
in common each have with one another.
A lack of communication between two people that occurs for a long period of time will most likely result in a huge confrontation or a complete
separation of the relationship. Developing effective communication is essential to maintaining a healthy relationship (Alberts 202). Feeling like one
person does more than the other can lead to unnecessary arguments if one feels the other isn't portraying active participation in the relationship
enhancement. Another theory that comes to mind is Equity theory which argues that rather than focusing purely on rewards and costs, people are
more interested in achieving fairness (Alberts 194). This theory helps explain that both people who are under benefitted and those who are over
benefitted may feel dissatisfied with their relationship (Alberts 195). To better explain under benefitted, an example would be when Brooke felt as
though she was being taken granted when she screamed, "I worked hard all day cleaning, then cooking the meal and worked all day long, it would be

The Strategies Of Finding A Mate
Lauren SoentgenApproach: 1, Source: Buss, 1994
In his article, The Strategies of Finding a Mate, David M. Buss discusses the act of finding a mate and the characteristics that people are drawn to in a
mate. He begins the article with a brief look at the history of mating and the theories that have previously been proposed. In particular he addressed
Charles Darwin's theory of sexual evolution and belief in preferential mate choice. Buss proposes that there are three components to human mating. He
states that "human mating is inherently strategic... mating strategies are context–dependent... [and that] men and women have faced different mating
problems over the course of human evolution and, as a consequence, have evolved different strategies" (Buss, 1994, p. 241). He uses this theory to
propose nine different hypotheses to prove that despite humans being varied and different from each other, all humans look for similar characteristics
when trying to find a mate (Buss, 1994). To investigate his research hypotheses, Buss collected data from two sources. His first source was college
students in the United States. For his second source, Buss (1994) worked with 50 other scientists in order to survey over 10,000 men and women from
around the world. This was his greatest strength in the article. He had collected so much research that it made the data seem credible, and the fact that
the participants came from diverse backgrounds means it is a better representation of the

Oni is a 48 year old was born and raised in the United States but part Nigeria and African American. This is the first marriage of Henry but second for
Oni. No first marriage only last two years because of her ex–husband cheating. The couple is madly in love with each other but worry about the recent
fighting and sexual tension. Oni does not want to have sex with her husband because she has recently caught him watching pornography. Henry
started watching pornography as a release of sexual starvation. Oni confused that she felt violated when Henry tried to have sex with her during her

broken because of Henry's activities because of her prior experience with her ex–husband cheating. Furthermore, the connection of Henry feeling

Adolescent, Antisocial Behavior And Behavior
On the other hand, Moffitt (1993) also identifies adolescent–limited as part of the adolescent offenders. Adolescent–limited antisocial behaviour is
defined by antisocial behaviour that starts occurring during adolescence and discontinues at the beginning of adulthood. These individuals have no
history of antisocial behaviour in their childhood and are unlikely to continue this behaviour in the future. They are also not consistent with their
antisocial behaviour in different situations. While life–course–persistent individuals act antisocially in all situations, changing their type of antisocial
behaviour to fit the circumstances, adolescent–limited individuals might only express antisocial behaviours in certain situations, but not in others.
Causes of Adolescent–Limited Antisocial Behaviour
The cause of adolescent–limited antisocial behaviour is theorised for one to be social mimicry. Adolescents who do not express life–course–persistent
antisocial behaviour, might still know or observe individual who do. Adolescents might observe an advantage in this behaviour and start to mimic it.
This advantage might be a mature status that is accompanied by power and privilege. It can be argued that industrialisation and the resulting
consequence of children achieving the social adult statutes later and later in life, leads to a maturity gap, where the biological age and social age do
not match up. This may lead to a increased desire for maturity statues within adolescents.

parents to help them understand her choice.
Overview of Person–Centered Theoretical Approach
Person–Centered Theory (PCT) was cultivated by Carl Rogers from the 1940's through the 1950's (Walsh, 2013). He first developed person–centered
therapy, infusing Functional and Humanistic views, consequently, person–centered theory followed. Rogers' authored four books expounding on the
therapy (Walsh, 2013). Person Centered Theory is a nondirective humanistic client–centered approach, which regards the client and the social worker as
contemporaries (Joseph & Murphy, 2013). The client is the authority on their life and the social worker is there to offerunconditional positive regard,
which fosters growth in sections that are important to the client (Joseph & Murphy, 2013)". The primary theoretical underpinning embraced by the
theory is embodied in actualizing tendency, which Rogers' viewed as

Nationality: Greek Title: Regarded as "Father of Science" Contributions: * He is credited with the first use of deductive reasoning applied to geometry. * Discovery that a circle is bisected by its diameter, that the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal and that vertical angles are equal. * Accredited with foundation of the Ionian school of Mathematics that was a centre of learning and research. * Thales theorems used in Geometry: 1. The pairs of opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines are equal. 2. The base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal. 3. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180В°. 4. An angle ...

Phaenomena, a treatise on spherical astronomy, survives in Greek; it is quite similar to On the Moving Sphere by Autolycus of Pitane, who flourished around 310 BC. * Famous five postulates of Euclid as mentioned in his book Elements 1. Point is that which has no part. 2. Line is a breadthless length. 3. The extremities of lines are points. 4. A straight line lies equally with respect to the points on itself. 5. One can draw a straight line from any point to any point. * The Elements also include the following five "common notions": 1. Things that are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another (Transitive property of equality). 2. If equals are added to equals, then the wholes are equal. 3. If equals are subtracted from equals, then the remainders are equal. 4. Things that coincide with one another equal one another (Reflexive Property). 5. The whole is greater than the part.

  • 3. A Scientific Theory Of Consciousness Whether a scientific theory of consciousness could be provided requires the theory to account for properties of sensations. Place thinks some philosophers struggle to accept a scientific theory by falling for the phenomenological fallacy. Some have posited descriptions of experience lye within the mental cinema (pg. 49). Place characterized the fallacy of thinking that when we perceive something green we are perceiving something green in the mind as 'the phenomenological fallacy'. He writes, if we assume, for example, that when a subject reports a green after–image he is asserting the occurrence inside himself of an object which is literally green, it is clear that we have on our hands an entity for which there is no place in the world of physics. He proposes the descriptions of green after–images are descriptions of a sort of normal response in contexts involving green light. In "Sensations are Brain Processes", J.J.C Smart argues that "in so far as a sensation statement is a report of something, that something is in fact a brain process" (Smart 1959 145). The 'Sensation–Brain Process Identity Theory' states: For any type of sensation state 'S', there is a type of brain state 'B' such that: 'S = B'. In defense of this thesis Smart clears up Place's identity distinction with his sense of strict identity. S and B are strictly identical when 'S' and 'B' are two names for a single object. The 'Sensation State Brain Process Identity Theory' asserts for each phenomenal state ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 4. Why Beauty id Truth by Ian Stewart Why Beauty is truth: A History of Symmetry by Ian Stewart is in depth on how mathematicians came about symmetry. Instead of coming across symmetry by geometry as someone today might think, Stewart shows how it became an idea by algebra. Most of the book is told in chronological order from the early Egyptians and Babylonians discovery of the quadratic equation and leading up to the impossibility to solve the quintic equation. Through each chapter we see how mathematicians get one step closer to solving the quintic, and their struggles they faced along the way. Early Equations The earliest record of the quadratic that we know of dates back to the Babylonians, solved on a tablet. Historians and Mathematicians do not have any clue about how the Babylonians came to solve the quadratic, but think that they came across is geometrically. Stewart shows how Euclid's Elements of Geometry introduced the basic methods for constructing a proof. Included in Elements in Proposition 9 of Book I is how Euclid shows how to bisect an angle with only a compass and a straightedge. Elements did not include information on how to trisect and angle though, which could have been used for the construction of a regular 7–gon. It was Euclid's Elements that inspired mathematicians to take it one step further and solve the things that Euclid had left out, such as squaring the circle with only a compass and a straightedge. The difficulty of these problems led mathematicians to change the way that they ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 5. The Theories And Interventions That Can Be Applied For The... In considering this case and within the social work profession, there are many theories and interventions that can be applied to the SRS's CPS program including: contingency, conflict resolution, organizational, systems, and empowerment theories. These theories do not operate alone, instead they are combined with one another. The conflict resolution theoretical approach will be utilized through the task–centered model with evidence of NASW's Code of Ethics, because this is specific to this case. An ethical practitioner should be knowledgeable of these practices and evidence that supports them (NASW, 2008). Goal and Objectives SRS's CPS program goal is to develop a new culture in the way employees deliver services. In order to accomplish this goal, the CPS program's supervisors will need to focus on and complete two objectives, which are to develop and implement a required CPS training for all employees on the new model within three weeks and to develop and provide a training manual with HIPPA guidelines on case scenarios when and when not to remove children from their homes in order to ensure more consistent services at SRS within four weeks. Approaches and Models for Intervention As stated previously, the conflict resolution theoretical approach will be utilized through the task–centered model.

  • 6. The Biological Perspective : Psychology Essay PSYCHOLOGY 1010: CONTEMERORY PSYCHOLOGY: 1.The Biological Perspective: This is the study of exactly how the physical events within the physical body interact with the events in the external environment. This is expressed by our perceptions, memories, behaviors and interactions with everything around us. We can think about our heredity and genetic makeup and the influences that has on each one of us as an individual. Then think about the stress of poor health and illness and how we may express our emotions with those around us. Since we are diverse as individuals we rely on our physiological make up and the stimuli of our environment to adapt to each situation. This human biology helps us to constantly adapt and survive in an ever–changing world. 2.The Behavioral Perspective: This perspective is based on environmental rewards and punishers to encourage or discourage behaviors. This is usually notes through direct observation of the particular act in the specific environment. Social cognitive learning is used to further explain values, expectations, and intentions of the individual. This theory was the main stream behaviorist theory for over 50 years, as it focuses on precision and objectivity. It is thought to have advanced science as a whole and has given psychology some of the most accurate and detailed finding to date. 3.The Cognitive Perspective: This is a way to explain how an individual's thoughts and explanations have a profound effect on their actions feelings ...

I plan for my students and I to be a "big family", and it will still be a learning environment. While I am teaching a lesson I would like for my students to be quite when they should be listening and participating when it is time for them to participate. I am there to guide their learning, the students will be allowed to share, correct, and exchange information when the time is appropriate. I will have the traditional teaching style which is the students paying attention to the teacher, then once the students seem to understand the content they will then be able to move around and interact with other student in either group discussions or at the learning centers throughout the classroom. My classroom will be nice and bright to keep up the positive energy, and it will still be conducted as a learning environment for my students, and they will understand that everything that they learn in my classroom will travel with them till they are old, and they will be able to understand why they are in school and what their purpose is in life. Assumptions about the Nature of Young People and Learning Every young person wants to satisfy their basic needs which usually tends to be power, love, freedom and fun.

  • 8. Analysis of the Article 1% by Joseph Stiglitz In the article "Of the 1%, by the 1%, for the 1%" Joseph Stiglitz, a noble prize winning economist, argues that the upper 1% controls about 40% of all wealth in America. This top 1% has taken about a quarter of all income in America, and has seen their income rise about 18% in the past decade. This has made the inequality between classes in the US expand. Eventually, this inequality gap will even hurt the top 1%, because the other 99% will either fight for a bigger piece or just stop working all together. The top 1% can buy anything they need, but their fate realizes on the other 99% to work hard and not fight back. If the 99% stopped working, there would be a simple way to gain back money... that would be to raise taxes on the rich. However, the rich get rich by capital gains, which have a low tax policy. So overall, the upper percent can eventually learn, but a majority of the time it is too little too late. Throughout the article, Stiglitz approaches the topic of the 1% and how that prestigious group rarely tries benefiting anyone besides his or her self. Joseph Stiglitz gets that point across and explains it well within his article. The topic of the 1% only benefiting his or her self is extensively explained in the statement about the rich not caring about common problems. The rich has a large sum of money that they could invest into infrastructure, education, war and technology, but the upper 1% does not want to do that because it does benefit that group enough. I ...

  • 9. Street Code : The Cultural Argument Essay Street Code: The Cultural Argument The Elijah Anderson's article, "Code of the Streets" is a perfect illustration for cultural arguments because it involves environments that are susceptible to learning a criminal culture; even up to a point of promoting that type of criminal behavior as "normal". It also has links to Differential Association and Social Learning theories of crime Culture transmission theories or cultural theories are theories that try to explain why, at a macro–level, some environments are breeding grounds for criminal behavior. Also why these types of environments develop a culture that its participants consider this type of criminal behavior is acceptable and necessary (Feldmeyer, Cultural Transmission Theories, 2015). And on the other hand how "Code of the Streets" shows links to the Differential Association and Social Learning theories of crime. The Differential Association (closely related to Social Disorganization theory), developed by Edwin Sutherland, and Social Learning theory, developed by Ronald Akers, both theories of crime are theories that try to explain, at a micro–level, why individuals rather than groups of individuals commit crime (Feldmeyer, Differential Association and Social Learning, 2015). Sutherland's theory piggyback on Social Disorganization theory by answering some of the critic's questions about why only some people in crime–prone neighbors commit crime while many others do not.

Positive Accounting Theory Compare and contrast normative and positive accounting approaches: Definition of PAT: Watts and Zimmerman (1986) defined Pat as a theory that seeks to explain and predicts particular phenomenon. It is concerned with explaining accounting practice. The three basic hypotheses as outlined by Watts and Zimmerman (1978) underlying PAT are: 1. Bonus plan hypothesis: The bonus plan hypothesis is that managers of firms with bonus plans are more likely to use accounting methods that increase current period reported income. Such selection presumably increase the present value of bonuses if the compensation committee of the board of directors does not adjust to the method chosen 2.

The main objective of normative accounting theories is to provide guidance to individuals to enable them to select the most appropriate accounting policies for given circumstances (Deegan, 2003, p. 90). Therefore, the result of normative accounting research should provide prescription to inform others about the optimal accounting approach to adopt and why this particular approach is considered optimal. Normative accounting research has resulted accounting theories that are relevant for the setting of financial reporting standards (Mozes, 1992, p. 93). In this case, the FASB's (U.S Financial Accounting Standard Board) call for normative research can be interpreted as a request for accounting researchers to investigate whether the user specific and decision–specific qualities that standard–setters require are present in the accounting data (Mozes, 1992, p. 93). A successful example of normative accounting theories is conceptual framework for financial reporting published by FASB. It was started in 1978 by SFAC (Statement of Financial Accounting Concept) No. 1: Objectives of Financial Reporting by Business Enterprises. Conceptual framework is defined by FASB as follow (FASB, 1980, p. i): Conceptual framework is a coherent system of interrelated objectives and fundamentals that is expected to lead to consistent standards and that prescribes the nature, function, and limits of financial accounting and reporting.

The client exhibits hopelessness and depression. The client has explained they experiencing insomnia, and decreased energy to do anything. This explains their poor personal hygiene. As the clinician the safety of the client is of the utmost importance. The use of the Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS) is for the purpose of aiding the clinician in the determining if the client is suicidal. It is important to gather as much information as possible to ensure the safety of the client and the ethical obligation as the clinician. Kattimani, Sarkar, Rajkumar & Menon (2015) clearly explained that stressful situations are the leading causes of compulsive suicidal attempts. Analysis of Theoretical Basis The theoretical basis for working with someone with dependency and depression can be narrative therapy along with cognitive behavioral therapy. Narrative therapy is from the theoretical approach that individuals have their own unique narratives (Phipps & Vorster, 2015). The intervention approached should be gentle with caution to translate what the client's story means to them and guide them towards change in a meaningful and productive way (Phipps & Vorster, 2015).

  • 14. Cold Fusion Research Paper Cold Fusion Research Paper As the world becomes more aware of the growing need for a more abundant energy supply, one energy source has been swept under the carpet and virtually ignored. This source is cold fusion. Cold fusion is: "A reaction that occurs under certain conditions in supersaturated metal hydrides (metals with lots of hydrogen or heavy hydrogen dissolved in them). It produces excess heat, helium, and a very low level of neutrons. In some experiments the host metal has been transmuted into other elements. Cold fusion has been seen with palladium, titanium, nickel and with some superconducting ceramics." (Infinite) In 1989 Stanley Pons and Martain Fleischmann announced to the press that they had discovered cold ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... If they had gone to the community before the press, a new scientific discovery might have been developed and researched, however there are only a few believers in cold fusion that are still researching it today. A general way physicists determine if a reaction is nuclear or chemical is via tritium (an isotope of hydrogen) production. Chemical reactions do not produce tritium, while most nuclear reactions do. It is important to note that some forms of fusion (nuclear reaction) can occur where tritium is not produced. (Matejowsky) Pons and Fleishmann claimed to produce a few tritium atoms, but their claimed results were never replicated because they did not publish their experiment. The exact method they used was not replicated until it was too late and cold fusion already had a bad name and been renounced. Even once the method they used had been reproduced the results were not consistent enough to convince the community. This resulted in the scientific community believing the entire idea and concept of cold fusion to be a hoax. As a result, any young scientists entering the community were turned away from cold fusion as was observed at the Seventh International Conference on Cold Fusion. "The younger ones had bailed years ago, fearing career damage from the cold fusion stigma." (Platt) Most scientists that thought the possibility of cold fusion was real either left it ...

Through the struggling times of France, Galois was able to live out his (short) life and make an impact on the world. Most of Galois' work was never accepted much less even appreciated by society in the era but after his death professors were able to decipher his methods which could've been done much quicker had he been able to explain himself.

  • 16. The Findings After Testing Quantized Inertia On The Emdrive The purpose of this article was to report the findings after testing quantized inertia on the EmDrive. The authors predicted that the thrust produced by the EmDrive can be explained assuming that the inertial mass of the photons is caused by unruh radiation. Multiple experiments took place in several independent labs, and produced results that were similar to the predicted values for thrust. The computations of the results did not sufficiently model wave oscillations in 3D, thus the authors recommend further testing in order to produce more accurate findings. The text is formatted as a journal article and has been peer reviewed. It was published on August 31, 2015, in Europhyiscs Letters, a journal founded in 1986 by the European Physical Society. The article references multiple sources that are also academically reliable. This source will be used to introduce one of the current theories attempting to explain how the EmDrive produces thrust. The article also addresses the lack of scientific explanation which will help to prove my own credibility in the report as I address a multitude of theories. Because the article was published recently I will likely introduce this source last. "Standard physics has no explanation for this and an error has not yet been found...

Cave Art has been a popular form of art during prehistoric period with there being records of rock art in a variety of various places ranging from Africa, Asia and Australia to Europe and the Americas. Some of the earliest example of cave art goes back as far as 40,000 years ago in Europe with "200 cave painting sites found in France" (Kelly and Thomas, 2016, p.255) such as the Cave of Niaux, as well as Creswell Crags in England and the Cave of El Castillo in Spain as well as a variety of others. Throughout the world a common imagery is seen in the paintings with them being consisted of animals and very little of actual humans, the reason for this type of imagery is not known hence why the interpretation of upper Palaeolithic cave art has been a disputed topic resulting in a variety of theories being constructed in order to explain the existence of the cave art which were constructed. Over time there has been many theories which have been accepted and rejected, however there has not been one agreed general idea, some of the popular ideas which have been established although are that the paintings were set to establish boundary markers, to be used as part of hunting magic / shamanism or they may have just simply have been art to admire.

Dualism of Human Nature Essay The Dualism of Human Nature and Its Social Conditions– Emile Durkheim According to Durkheim's work The Dualism of Human Nature and Its Social Conditions (DHN), a man has a dual nature which is made up of the body (individual) and the soul (social). He sheds light on this by citing post–Durkheim theories which he does not agree with and which do not solve the problem of this dual nature. Durkheim also uses The Elementary Forms of the Religious Life (EFRL) to discuss the religious aspect of the body and soul. Upon reading, it is discovered that as society evolves, so does this "dual nature." In DHN, Durkheim argues that sociology must examine what an individual consists of because it is a result of the whole society. It is this society ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... There were also 2 other theories that attempted to explain this "dualism of human nature" : (1) The Ontological Explanation by Plato– man's inward struggle consists of being "good" and being unethical. Plato says that "because we are part of both, we are necessarily in conflict with ourselves." (p.4) And a theory by Kant (2) Sensitivity and Reason– we have an ability to think individually or collectively. Durkheim feels that these 2 theories only re–state the problem it does not resolve it. They also assume that man's nature is above explanation, but we should be able to explain it. Again, in EFRL, Durkheim shows religiosity from a sociological standpoint in which "individual consciousness" is combined with "common consciousness." To look at it another way, individuals use signs and symbols to interpret and/or explain their feelings. If the group all uses the same signs and symbols, it then becomes the symbol or representation of the group's sacredness. Even if the individual is no longer part of the collective society, he still holds the sacredness of the signs/symbols to the same high standard, and he does this by way of festivals, ceremonies, etc. Also in DHN, Durkheim ...

  • 22. Personal Identity: Bundle and Ego Theory Personal Identity What explains the unity of consciousness is the fact that experiences are casually interconnected. My reading of the unity of consciousness states that the series of mental happenings and events are interconnected together simply by causal relation. The Unity of Life is the linked experiences of a person joint with their personality and ego. Also the Unity of life states that experiences are connected over time. Between two theories, I believe that the Bundle theory works well based on describing Personal identity as a bundle of various thoughts, perceptions and a person's state of mind. Parfit argued in the case of the Split–Brain case that the bundle theory can support both normal brains and split–brains cases. Whereas, the Ego Theory can only account for normal brains. The Ego Theory explains the person and their continual existence over time, by describing the existence of an ego and focuses on different experiences throughout a person's life. An ego theorist may believe that a person's life can be defined by comprising experiences undergone by the same ego. In the Bundle Theory, people are a series of different states, events, thoughts, that unites through the actual experience and memories. Each of these series establishes a life that rejects the existence of a person to exist separately from one's body. The Ego Theory explains the unity of a person life; the fact that all of the experiences in this life are by the same person. Ego theory is much ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Cantor states, "...most scientists suffer from some sort of dissociative personality: on one side, the rigorous believer in the experimental method, with its set of rules and its ultimate objective of advancing knowledge; on the other, the fallible human being with all the accompanying foibles".1 Cantor continues to describe the issue of simultaneous discovery and then strikes right at the heart of the scientists who step beyond the bounds of the scientific method. He states, "...a scientists drive, his self–esteem, are really based on a very simple desire: recognition by one's peers".2 Recognition is what the "Nobel" is about, and if a fictional scientist has to ignore the methodology that governs science to get it, so be it.

To begin, it provides a definition and highlights reiki's application in mainstream medicine. This forms scientific assumptions of the use of the scientific method. This highlights credibility, methodology and reliability as a precursor of application to public health. As a result, it firstly demonstrates credibility through the process of gathering scientific facts from reliable sources. Journals are found using the British Psychological Society (BPS) and PsycINFO. This subsequently provides empirical research for critical review. Secondly, it explores methodology from a selection of these journals. It includes the necessity of operational definitions, value and measurement, and construct validity. Finally, it therefore demonstrates the reliability of results as scientific data, to infer robust conclusions. This will provide the basis of the argument to evaluate if reiki is science or pseudoscience. Reiki Application Firstly, reiki is described as an ancient Japanese form of therapeutic healing (Baldwin, Rand & Schwartz, 2013; Baldwin, Wagers & Schwartz, 2008; Cuneo et al., 2011; Diaz–Rodriguez et al., 2011; Richeson, Spross, Lutz & Peng, 2010; Shore, 2004).

This paper published by geographer Chris Hamnett traces the popularity of research into gentrification and examines the competing theories of its origin and dynamics: namely David Ley's humanist and demand–side theory and Neil Smith's supply–side "rent–gap" theory. Hamnett argues that both theories provide an incomplete picture of this complex process, and thus a cohesive explanation of gentrification must incorporate ideas from both. This is argued through the critiquing the two differing viewpoints: examining their potential flaws and citing real world data from studies of other scholars. Additionally, Hamnett also the viewpoints of contemporary theorists to further his critique of the two theories, and to construct his proposed multi–dimensional explanation of gentrification. Despite its tight construction, the paper is limited by the lack of real–life data accessible to the author at the time of writing and the relative youth of the topic in the field of geography, both are points alluded to by the author. Nevertheless, the paper provides an interesting new framework of discussion to the field that reconciles and integrates two previously opposing viewpoints.

Philosophy teaches how to make judgements with precise evaluation based on ethics and morality, taking under consideration all the factors that make an evaluation precise.

Adams says "just as evangelism always must precede edification, these four steps must always occur in the same order" (p. 13). Adams bases his counseling concept on these four steps and II Timothy 3:14–17. Adams (1986) is not one to integrate psychology into the Christian counseling process. Adams (1986) teaches in this book that Scripture is the only way to counsel people and that integrating psychology into the counseling practice goes against scripture. Backus (2000) gives a three step process to becoming a happy person, they include realizing your misbeliefs, removing your misbeliefs, and replacing those misbeliefs with truth. He references Proverbs 23:7a which reads "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he" (KJV). This is telling us that however we think of ourselves in our hearts, we will believe those thoughts as truths even if they are lies.

Although the more complete knowledge of God unveiled in revelation cannot be strictly proven through the use of reason, this knowledge is consistent with that which we have come to know through reason. Therefore, it is entirely reasonable to hold the Catholic narrative of God as truth. Modern society, however, insists that only what is proven through science is worth believing. This attitude stems from the belief that thescientific method employed in science is the only clear–cut method for determining truth. This is why renowned physicist Stephen Hawking's scientific explanation for the complexity and origin of the universe is well respected by many. Hawking's Scientific Determinism supposes that we are in fact biological machines whose decisions are determined by the chemical reactions that occur within the body, thus eliminating the concept of free will. Furthermore, Scientific Determinism effectively removes God from the picture by insisting that scientific laws cannot be laws "if [they] only hold when some supernatural being decides not to intervene." Hawking's theory is supposed to be trustworthy because it relies on the scientific method of determining causes and their effects.

Another theory that comes to mind is Equity theory which argues that rather than focusing purely on rewards and costs, people are more interested in achieving fairness (Alberts 194). This theory helps explain that both people who are under benefitted and those who are over benefitted may feel dissatisfied with their relationship (Alberts 195). To better explain under benefitted, an example would be when Brooke felt as though she was being taken granted when she screamed, "I worked hard all day cleaning, then cooking the meal and worked all day long, it would be nice if you said thank you and helped me with the dishes."

  • 41. The Strategies Of Finding A Mate Lauren SoentgenApproach: 1, Source: Buss, 1994 In his article, The Strategies of Finding a Mate, David M. Buss discusses the act of finding a mate and the characteristics that people are drawn to in a mate. He begins the article with a brief look at the history of mating and the theories that have previously been proposed. In particular he addressed Charles Darwin's theory of sexual evolution and belief in preferential mate choice. Buss proposes that there are three components to human mating. He states that "human mating is inherently strategic... mating strategies are context–dependent... [and that] men and women have faced different mating problems over the course of human evolution and, as a consequence, have evolved different strategies" (Buss, 1994, p. 241). He uses this theory to propose nine different hypotheses to prove that despite humans being varied and different from each other, all humans look for similar characteristics when trying to find a mate (Buss, 1994). To investigate his research hypotheses, Buss collected data from two sources. His first source was college students in the United States. For his second source, Buss (1994) worked with 50 other scientists in order to survey over 10,000 men and women from around the world. This was his greatest strength in the article. He had collected so much research that it made the data seem credible, and the fact that the participants came from diverse backgrounds means it is a better representation of the ...

  • 43. The Case Of Henry And Oni The case study that will be discussed will be Henry and Oni. Henry is a 38 year old born a French–Canadian but primary raised in the United States. Oni is a 48 year old was born and raised in the United States but part Nigeria and African American. This is the first marriage of Henry but second for Oni. No first marriage only last two years because of her ex–husband cheating. The couple is madly in love with each other but worry about the recent fighting and sexual tension. Oni does not want to have sex with her husband because she has recently caught him watching pornography. Henry started watching pornography as a release of sexual starvation. Oni confused that she felt violated when Henry tried to have sex with her during her sleep. She describes feeling like one of those woman he watches in his videos. The purpose of choosing this particular case study was because there was a connection of relating to Oni feelings. Initially, the assumption was made that Oni is feeling that her faith and trust in their marriage has been broken because of Henry's activities because of her prior experience with her ex–husband cheating. Furthermore, the connection of Henry feeling sexual starved is understandable considering his needs are not being met. Clinical Theory The clinical theory chosen for this clinical evaluation is Solution Focused Based Theory (SFBT). SFBT would be an appropriate theoretical approach to take with this couple to formulate solutions and ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 44. Adolescent, Antisocial Behavior And Behavior On the other hand, Moffitt (1993) also identifies adolescent–limited as part of the adolescent offenders. Adolescent–limited antisocial behaviour is defined by antisocial behaviour that starts occurring during adolescence and discontinues at the beginning of adulthood. These individuals have no history of antisocial behaviour in their childhood and are unlikely to continue this behaviour in the future. They are also not consistent with their antisocial behaviour in different situations. While life–course–persistent individuals act antisocially in all situations, changing their type of antisocial behaviour to fit the circumstances, adolescent–limited individuals might only express antisocial behaviours in certain situations, but not in others. Causes of Adolescent–Limited Antisocial Behaviour The cause of adolescent–limited antisocial behaviour is theorised for one to be social mimicry. Adolescents who do not express life–course–persistent antisocial behaviour, might still know or observe individual who do. Adolescents might observe an advantage in this behaviour and start to mimic it. This advantage might be a mature status that is accompanied by power and privilege. It can be argued that industrialisation and the resulting consequence of children achieving the social adult statutes later and later in life, leads to a maturity gap, where the biological age and social age do not match up. This may lead to a increased desire for maturity statues within adolescents. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 45. Description Of Person Centered Theory Lien Hua a sixteen year old first generation Chinese American. Hua came to the school social work counselor complaining of feeling stressed. Hua explained that she is interested in pursuing social work when she goes away to college, however, her parents would like her to either practice medicine or law. She reported that just thinking of talking to her parents regarding her career choice is causing her immense stress. As a result of the stress she reports that her grades have dropped and she is socializing less. Hua has requested that the school social worker tell her what to say to her parents to help them understand her choice. Overview of Person–Centered Theoretical Approach Person–Centered Theory (PCT) was cultivated by Carl Rogers from the 1940's through the 1950's (Walsh, 2013). He first developed person–centered therapy, infusing Functional and Humanistic views, consequently, person–centered theory followed. Rogers' authored four books expounding on the therapy (Walsh, 2013). Person Centered Theory is a nondirective humanistic client–centered approach, which regards the client and the social worker as contemporaries (Joseph & Murphy, 2013). The client is the authority on their life and the social worker is there to offerunconditional positive regard, which fosters growth in sections that are important to the client (Joseph & Murphy, 2013)". The primary theoretical underpinning embraced by the theory is embodied in actualizing tendency, which Rogers' viewed as ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
