The concept of Chinese businesses that the family patriarch critically manages them continues to hold true, although in the modern world as opposed to two decades ago, it has slowly changed. However, much of the management is held by a male member of the family, whether they operate a business upon their property or if they lease or rent the property.

Black Boys and underachievement: Myth or Reality?

Introduction
Since the decade of the 1960s, the families of black Caribbean boys have been particularly concerned about the academic performance of their children. The reason for this is due to an apparent gap between these Afro-Caribbean children and other students, especially white ones (National Union of Teachers | NUT | The Teachers' Union, 2007). Today, their scholastic success at the attainment at General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) remains well below the national average. In 2006, 44.9 percent of these children gained five good GCSEs or their equal compared to 57.3 percent of white students (DfES, 2007). The figures ...

Introduction

The achievement gap in formal schooling between African American children and other groups is stark. This has proven consistent over time (Coleman, et al, 1966), across jurisdictions (Clotfelter, Ladd & Vigdor, 2009; Bailey & Dziko, 2008), and throughout the K-12 system (The National Center for Education Statistics, 2014). Improving these issues is an obvious direction forward. Yet, the obstacles are numerous and multifaceted (Sanacore, 2004). Relative to the public domain, the school system is often targeted for a lack of understanding in relation to educating young African Americans of low socio-economic status. The curriculum is long been criticized for being de-contextualized to ...

Dissertation: Are cognitive distortions the answer for the persistence of depression in treated Celiac disease patients?

Abstract
The research suggests that Celiac patients are heavily influenced by their diagnosis. Anxiety, depression, and social isolation are all common features that sufferers of Celiac disease share. The disease functions in such a way that it forces the sufferer to remove him or herself from the social act of eating: he or she is no longer able to really be a part of the social gatherings that include food (Addolorato, 2001). However, this separation is largely invisible; many people do not realize that Celiac patients face any trouble at all in social situations. In this discussion, an investigation ...

Buck’s early life and experiences as an American and the child of a missionary informed her preconceptions of China, its people, society, and culture.
