What is The Halo Effect
The halo effect is a result of the impact of the overall impression of something (a phenomenon, a man, a thing) on the perception of its particular features. An example is the impression that people with good look have great mental capacity.
In the management of personnel, halo effect is a source of error in the assessment of the individual. The observer uses a first impression or a memorable feature in the assessment of personality.

Edward Thorndike

Edward Thorndike’s first experimental evidence led to the halo effect.

Introduction

Germination is the process by which a plant develops from a seed and grows in optimal conditions where temperature and water available is suitable for the transformation of a seed into a plant. The conditions are favorable when the right balance of air, moisture and temperature are reached that stimulate the seed to come out of hibernation and start sprouting a root and shoot that starts the process of germination(Bewley, J. Derek, et al). Mostly, germination is the growth of embryonic seeds. When a seed is germinating and fertilizing, it produces an embryo where an embryo is present ...

ABSTRACT

The involuntarily and subconscious behavior of some individuals can be described as extraordinary capabilities. When individuals cannot consciously account for their actions, the phenomena is called ideomotor effect. The effect is not clearly understood though scientific research strongly relates it with the subconscious mind. The difficulty in conducting experiments to come up with a clear psychological and scientific explanation for the ideomotor effect, has lead to it being related to psycho-kinesis and extra sensory perception. The two (ESP AND PK) have an explainable origin from the subconscious mind although further research continues in the field. How scientists explain one ...

Abstract

The seawater forms 97% of water of the world, and the icecaps account for 2%. The portion of water available for human consumption is barely 0.5% and that also in aquifers. The widening gap between availability and requirement of potable water especially in the Gulf countries has necessitated newer methods and technologies for production of water suitable for human consumption. This situation in the Gulf region has developed due to non- availability of surface water, high growth of population and urbanization, and water depletion. The present paper takes account of the desalinization of seawater plant established in Abu Dhabi ...

Abstract
There has been an increasing concern among the scientific and geographical communities that the changes currently occurring in the climate are induced by humans. Scientists are also concerned about the ability of humans and other species to adapt to these changes. Indeed, there is an on-going debate about whether humans and other species should adapt to the change or mitigate it. With rapidly rising temperatures around the globe, the chances of sustainability are decreasing. Climate changes as a result of natural forces such as the earth’s rotation around the sun, and changes in the intensity of radiation ...

Introduction

Introduction

Policy makers and the general public have been at pains to answer the questions they are confronted with about the intricacies of lesbians and gay men. Questions are abound ranging from whether they are mentally ill to whether the much publicized conversion therapies result to a change in orientation. Questions have also been asked about their stereotyped propensity to molest children. Such scathing thoughts and remarks are fed by stereotypic cultural undertones that many a times depict gay men and lesbians as criminals, immoral, sick and every description that falls short of what our society considers ‘normal’. The implicated ...

During President Obama’s inauguration, studies showed that the performance gap between white and black students diminished (Mattimore, 2009). We are interested to know through our study if this change in attitude is reflected by the people’s attitude to the different races as well. Our class gathered 74 participants, 60 females ...

Greenhouse effect and global warming

Greenhouse effect refers to the increase of temperature of the earth’s surface and its immediate surrounding caused by a “blanket” effect of gasses that trap heat radiation (Ganesh, 2011). The greenhouse gasses decrease the frequency at which the surface of the earth reemits infrared radiations into the atmosphere. This leads to a relatively slower rate of energy loss to the immediate surrounding causing the surface of the earth together with the lower atmosphere relatively warmer than they should be.
There are two main causes of the greenhouse effect:”natural” and “man-made” greenhouse effects. The natural greenhouse effect is ...

- Introduction
Radiations such as  - rays, UV rays, etc. have ionizing effects on tissues and have the ability kill cells and inactivate viruses. A detailed analysis of the survival of such cells and viruses are imperative in many fields, including radiation oncology, public health and environmental photobiology. However, the mathematical and statistical tools based on target theory in radiobiology are mentioned in literature (Alpen, 1988, Smith, 1989, Hall, 2000) and are wide in use in the analysis of experimental data involving biophysical mechanisms of the repair of radiation damage. This work demonstrates the use of probabilistic approaches in descriptions ...

Impact of using lowly-differentiated Stimuli on the Working Memory

Abstract
Sternberg Paradigm has been used as a measure in short term memory studies since the model was developed in 1966. Several subsequent studies have, however, not being successful in duplicating the exact results achieved by Sternberg. The reason for this has been identified as the other researchers’ use of faster stimulus presentation rates. The results from these subsequent studies indicate the impact of the presentation rate on the recall capability of the working memory. It is essential to highlight that all these studies used highly differentiated stimuli. This study will, however, analyze the impact of using lowly differentiated ...

Sexual abuse is seen as one of the gravest crimes a person could commit after murder or killing. A victim is physically and sexually tortured or abused by the suspect, either by forced intercourse or similar acts, which often leads to traumatizing effects for the victim. Some would often find victims mentally unstable after the assault, traumatized to see people with the same gender as their attacker or even be with people. Others would become haunted by nightmares, leading them to taking their lives or succumb to insanity. A few may only attempt to recreate the act and become the suspect themselves for other victims under abuse. However, these general effects vary when it comes to the background and age of the victim. In the case of children, sexual abuse can thwart physical, mental and social development, and also transform a child’s personality for the worst if they are not properly treated. ...

Introduction

The shared history between America and Mexico can be dated back during the Texas Revolution of 1835-1836, and the Mexican-American War of 1846-1848. As a result, several treaties had been signed in culminating differences between the two nations. For example, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the Gadsden Purchase comprise some of the agreements made between the two nations. In the 19th century, America claimed Louisiana as part of its territory and was rightfully acquired during the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. These confrontations resulted into conflict as Spain opposed to the America's claim, stipulating that the western ...
