Part 1:

Work ethics among Japanese youngsters are on the decline thanks to a long time obsession with entrance exams, insufficient career planning and excessive meddling from their parents resulting in them taking up part time jobs until they find suitable career options. Japanese Corporations are trying to steer clear of the long term obsession with top universities and entrance exams by tweaking their selection procedures to be independent of these factors. Youngsters in Canada and United States too are looking at short term and part time careers before taking up long term job options. Educators are now stressing on the need ...

Article review of MRI utilization in Newly diagnosed Breast cancer: a survey of practicing surgeons

In this article, Parker, Schroen and Brenin present the findings of a study they conducted on breast surgeons to determine the practice beliefs which surround the use of MRI in newly diagnosed breast cancer. They state that even though there are guidelines which support the use of MRI in high risk screening, there no guidelines to facilitate the use of MRI in newly diagnosed cancer. They state that breast MRI can identify a disease which is not seen under normal diagnosis procedures such as mammography, frequently leading to a change in surgical therapy. Accordingly, the optimal utility for breast MRI in a group ...

The debate on the liability of a product from an ethical position is a very controversial issue. Damages related to products are often a dilemma on who should take the responsibility. In the case of Mr. Shabeev, he did not perpetrate the attacks. However, he wrote the code that eventually led to the creation of the said virus. The virus, targeted towards Target Corp customers, caused irreparable damage not just to the company’s financial aspect but also its reputation as a trendsetter. While Mr. Shabeev could claim to have no dealings ion the actual attacks, he is solely responsible for the whole ...

This study design took the form of prospective randomized control trial. The sample size in this case was ninety-two patients (Alimov, Lovecchio, Sinha, Foster, & Drachman, 2013). These patients were more than 18 years of age and were suffering from cutaneous abscess. The ...

Funding forms a critical aspect of public universities in terms of research and conducting learning. In the 1950s and 60s educated university students did protest concerning the Vietnam wars and other issues that were affecting America. With a high access to public funds, the universities and colleges could increase the intake of students. However, over the years the reduction in public funds has been construed to have an agenda. Courses on humanities such as sociology and philosophy play an essential role in shaping the minds of college students. Individuals can be able to reason critically and analyze everyday issues from clear ...

In the article Chicago Schools’ Financial Controls Assailed in Report, Caroline Porter discusses how mismanagement and inefficiencies are draining the cash strapped Chicago Public Schools (CPS). This is evidenced by the financial report that had been released for the fiscal year 2013. According to the Chicago Board of Education’s oversight office, there were a number of deficiencies in internal controls and a number of cases of detrimental employee misconduct. In a particular instance, the report showed how a former technological worker had been suspected of embezzling more than $400000 from the schools. Consequently, Porter set out to identify the failure of management ...

Introduction

There are fundamental gender differences in organizational management styles, values, leadership strategies and policy preferences, which constitute barriers to women’s ascendancy to the highest levels of leadership. These differences not only condition women’s leadership/managerial styles, but also shape the effectiveness of any such styles, which in turn reflect on their participation in public administration. This paper distils the existent conceptual, theoretical and empirical models on public administration, gender disparities, and underlying factors that prevent women’s upward mobility as well as the subsequent effect on organizational outcomes. Ultimately, however, management and leadership styles in any context continue ...

In this article, the unique and specific patterns of cultural and genetic diversities of the Native Americans have been identified and this information is used to understand geographic dispersion patterns as well as the relationship between these people. Of these, the Tupi and Je speaker dispersions are the most important ones. Currently a lot of people speak the stock of these two languages. Although the Tupi expansion can be compared to Bantu migration in Africa, very little is known about this event as compared to others. The Je-speaker’s expansion has an equal and even deeper gaps and this study ...

This study discusses risky sexual behaviors among adults. Further, the study tries to establish other factors, both personal and non-personal, and their link to risky sexual behavior. The purpose of the study was to investigate the changes that occur over time within individual variations in irregularity of condom use and sexual encounters under the influence of alcohol. This has been necessitated because of the numerous and lasting consequences of risky sexual behaviors such as unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections. Previous research on this topic has involved the use of cross-sectional studies, which has limited the examination of changes ...

The article talks about the influence of Clinical Trials in determining apparent-benefit ratio. It analyses the effects of evidence based medicine, whereby, outcomes of two trials could lead to the alteration of unrealistic estimates of drug effectiveness. Reviews from the food and drug administration (FDA) were among the methodologies used to arrive at the findings. It included about twelve antidepressant agents covering a total of 12564 patients. A systematic literature research was then conducted to identify corresponding publications (Turner et al., 254). Reported trials during this research and its published outcome were then critically compared to the FDA outcomes. Further ...

Summary Critique

Education in colleges has become quite expensive in recent years. The federal government has provided loans to students to finance their college education. While the intention was to reduce the burden on the students and their families to enable them achieve their dreams but by no means least, at last, the whole system has turned out to increase the burden on the students and their families. This has left the students in a situation whereby they have been forced to recall their education or seek other methods by which they can fund their education. The reasons behind these predicaments have ...

Pulmonary contusion (PC) is a common consequence of blunt trauma to the chest. PC occurs in 30-75% of cases of chest trauma, and in many cases this is further complicated by severe bone injuries of the chest wall. Despite much research into the subject, mortality and morbidity has not significantly improved in the past three decades. Advances in imaging have similarly failed to have any impact on outcomes.

The consequences of PC are manifold and include both local and systemic effects. Some of the local effects are: laceration of lung tissue, hemorrhage-filled alveoli, reduced compliance, increase in shunt fraction leading ...

The essay “Farm Girl”, written by Jessica Hemauer, is one that is full of wisdom and detail about a little girl growing up on a farm and how her time spent doing chores there has helped her to prepare for most of life’s great difficulties (Hemauer, 2011). She writes this essay with such experience and confidence in her knowledge and emotions while describing daily duties such as waking up at 5:00 a.m. at ten years old and “cleaning out various huts and pens.” This essay significantly describes the emotions and responsibilities in the life of a farm girl (Hemauer, ...

The main research question that was studied in the article “Do airport hotels continue to be a growth opportunity, and which airports present the best opportunities?” by Joni Smith was to assess how hotels depend on the local airport to generate demand for their service. There was also a secondary hypothesis investigated studying the link between the premiums charged at average and peak travel times.

The methodology used to address the research questions were questionnaires given to the hotels in the areas of the airports asking for information about occupancy percentages, room rates, and vicinity in relation to the terminals, ...

In his paper “Psychology as the Behaviorist Views It,” Watson (1913) points out what he believes to be the main issues of psychology as a growing science. Watson explains that psychology is concerned with the analysis of complex mental states and processes and reducing them to simple elements. An alternative approach includes taking several simple elements and constructing complex mental states from those elements. In both cases, the significance of external stimuli is often dismissed in studies, which also means no significance is attributed to behavioral data. That is why Watson argues that existing subject-matter in psychology should ...

In 1947 The National Labor Relations Act of 1947 created the FMCS, or the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. This agency was independent and was created in part because of the labor chaos that came after WWII. Originally, it was created to help smooth labor relations, but one very important aspect of it was that it removed the role of labor mediation from the Department of Labor to itself.

Today this independent agency has the focus of preserving labor peace and also creating cooperation between labor-management relationships. They are headquartered in the nation’s capital, and have more than ...

The article entitled “Three Men, Three Ages.

Article Reflection

The article that will be reviewed is “Close Reading in Elementary Schools”. The article is about a qualitative research on close reading and how it can be adapted by elementary schools.

The hypothesis that is being tested is whether close reading is an appropriate instructional routine for elementary students. The research methodology used by the authors is the observation of teachers from different grade levels, who taught different subjects and who are willing to explore close reading. The results of the study reveal the key features that must be addressed if close reading is to be implemented in elementary ...

Upon the announcement of changes in the admission test of the Gifted and Talented programs by the New York City Education Department, several test preparation organizations started coming up with new preparatory content such as the NNAT 2 material by Bright Kids. In addition, many schools are also concentrating on altering their admission process such as a public school named Hunter which instead of allowing parents to choose a tester out of 16, lowered the choice of one out of four testers (Anderson, 2013).

The reason for changing the admission test exams by the New York City Education Department was mainly ...

Research Problem/Question: The researchers had based their research on the argument that violent especially shooting video games have become most important leisure activity among youth. With the increasing praise for such games in media and public, these games have stimulated aggressive behavior and feelings of inattention towards friends and family as the users have perceived these animated characters as social beings and they are not actively involved in social activities. Apart from enjoyment and stimulation of aggressive behavior, youths feel no wrong in killing; rather they enjoy playing these games. However, very little research has been done to assess ...

The main theme of the paper is creativity and how it is seen by society. The authors stresses that even though innovation is welcome in our society, it is not truly so. Innovation means change, it means the unknown. We as human beings don’t like to lose control and to try something with an uncertain ending. Something definite is what makes us calm. The author proves his point not only by his personal thoughts. He gives examples both from creative arts and sciences. The Matthew Pearl’s movie, which was meant to attract the creative side of each ...

Children having children

The article ‘Children having children’ by Claudia Wallis aims at drawing society’s attention to the problem of teen pregnancy. Throughout the twentieth and twenty- first centuries, raising of this issue may seem corny.

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 is how it should be. ...

- 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?
This article is based on both theoretical research and practical research. The research has used the meta-analysis research method which is an analytical technique which aims at analyzing results of multiple analyses.

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 the title of ...

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 without any instructions. ...

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 predict the behavior ...
