The student in the infamous video was thrown out of school in the middle of the night by an infuriated University of Oklahoma President David Boren. This course of action was also ...

Childhood obesity is a growing health concern with the National Conference of State Legislatures (2014) estimating that 31.7% of children and adolescents are either obese or overweight. Consequently, such a health concern has an impact on nursing. This is especially the case considering that obesity is associated with the patient being at a high risk of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes and liver complications (Joshi, 2015). It is therefore important that policy imperatives be developed to tackle the problem. Some of primary areas of concern for a policy touching on childhood obesity include school nutrition, insurance coverage for affected ...

This research paper examines the evidence of data available in the books against the media reports which claim the rampant existence of racial discrimination. Each section in this research paper will raise question regarding ...

The battle of culture and beliefs versus nursing profession

The nursing professional is consistently challenged with science and cultural beliefs of patients. A patients set of religious and personal beliefs could interfere with the nurses’ empirical and scientific knowledge (Ammouri, et al. 2015). In a culturally diverse globe, many beliefs act as barriers in performing necessary medical interventions. Nurses may play a crucial but minimal role in such cases of cultural and religious belief. In emergency care and life-threatening situations, some religions do not permit for medical procedures which puts the attending nurse in a dilemma between cultural beliefs and ethical conduct. However, in most cases, nurses are ...

Felician University Avsar, Kasikci, and Yagci’s article titled Hand Washing of Nursing Students: An Observational Study applies the qualitative approach to help illuminate how hand washing is intricately related to the transmission of hospital infections (Avsar et al., 2015). Ideally, this article proceeds from the assertion that hand washing is a major contributing factor to hospital infections. Accordingly, the researchers seek to investigate and determine the behaviors of students with regards to hygienic hand washing. The intention of this paper is to compare this qualitative article with a quantitative article exploring the same topic; handwashing. The quantitative article ...

In an article entitled, “One-Percent Jokes and Plutocrats in Drag: What I Saw When I Crashed a Wall Street Secret Society,” Kevin Roose reports on his experience of infiltrating a party for members of Kappa Beta Phi, “a secret Wall Street fraternity” (Roose, 2014). In writing a book about young Wall Street executives, the author was curious as to the behavior of older, successful Wall Street executives. When he learned of the exclusive fraternity for Wall Street executives, Kappa Beta Phi, he thought that he'd like to visit one of its meetings as a part of his research. This ...

Abstract

Rape in the United States military has historically been viewed as a myth that did not need to be addressed. This way of thinking is the result of the viewpoints of a rape culture. These viewpoints work to legitimize the violence to remove all blame from the attacker, which makes the violence strategic and intentional. It has been noted the main reason intra-military is underreported is, the fact the attacker usually holds a higher level of superiority. This reality results in, the victim needing to report the event with their attacker. It has been reported by the Marine Corps, ...

But with time, and with improvisation of our knowledge in the field of science and technology, the science fraternity has discovered certain facts about modified plants which indicate that these plants are not ...

The media have given the depiction of female-instigated violence a partial coverage, and the belief has been otherwise. In fact, the reporting and the perception of the society have been oriented to male- instigated violence and this construed thought has had a place in the media reporting parlance. Based on this desertion, I have realized a series of shortfalls that have often marred reporting and coverage of female instigated violence. Therefore, I can attest that the partiality in this reporting has construed the social mindsets that male propagates most violence, and the public belief has been that female aggressions ...

Throughout history, Bollywood films have illustrated a representation of women in India in various forms. Arguably, it is certain that Bollywood films comprise of gender-based stereotypes.

Introduction Most top multi-level and multi-nation organizations have performance appraisals as their essential factors in order to achieve goals (Shahriari,, et al. 2013).

Over the last two decades, corporate social responsibility has gained deep interest from accountants and auditors. It happens because substantial amounts of financial resources are invested in corporate social responsibility; yet there are not explicit accounting policies and standards to report on corporate social responsibility financials and activities (The Institute of Internal Auditors, 2016). Owing to this, there has been varied views and discourses on the conduct of corporate social reporting with many commentators focusing majorly on the triple bottom line reporting as a prelude to corporate social reporting. The current paper presents a detailed review of the ongoing ...
