Firstly, we see an explanation of anthropology. The science of how a human being functions is depicted. We can see the characteristics and necessities of a human. There is also the word "divine", which implies the existence of a deity. It is clear that a human has a soul, but his life is predestined. There is the law, which has to be obeyed. Justice is also very important and connected to language, law and individualism. Every person should have the same rights according to this chart. Body and language are tools. Human is by nature an individual, and that Continue reading...

- Identify the research method used in accumulating the data which served as the basis for this article. What were the strengths and weaknesses of the research method?

The Title of the Article

The title indicates that the article is about morale and role strain of undergraduate nursing students in a pediatric clinical setting. However, Chen fails to specify the aspect of morale and role strain that the article seeks to deal with in the title. For instance, the title would have been more specific if it were stated as follows: causes of morale and role strain of undergraduate nursing students in a pediatric clinical setting. In this case, a reader would be able to tell that the article deals with the causes of morale and role strain. It therefore follows that Continue reading...

It is important to study about language and verbal behavior because it helps understand other people in a better way. Language or verbal behavior is defined as an operant behavior, which is strengthened by other people’s mediation (Skinner, 1957). This can be well explained as a practical relationship existing between the behavior of a person speaking, as well as the conditions in their environment. However, in this relationship, an important question, on how reinforcement between the speaker and the other people occurs arises.
According to research, it is clear that children acquire a number of language skills mainly Continue reading...

The two dangerous assumptions that are held in the research in gender different include the following. The assumption that, if we find a sex differences in some ability or kind of behavior, that means that all males do a particular thing and all females do some quite different thing ( for example, all men are aggressive, and all females are passive and peace-loving). Test scores of males and females overlap and thus, finding a sex difference does not mean that all women are one way and all men are one way. Therefore, knowing ones sex cannot possibly be used to Continue reading...

The state of writing in the U.S. has been on an upward trend for such a long time. The schools in this country have been under pressure lately to produce better readers and writers from their students. There has been increased lobbying by concerned parties on the need for schools and teachers in particular to be accountable for effective literacy instruction. The main reason for this need for public accountability is due to the increased dissatisfaction with literacy in schools. The trends in writing research, writing instruction and writing assessment have been changing ever since.
