My positive attitude in life and towards leadership leads me closer to the Theory-Y, which assumes that most people ...

Genly Ai has a single sexual designation in his culture and is confronted by a society that considers this to be a perversion. The concept of a perversion in this sense lies in unacceptable sexual behavior. The ability for the Gethenians to change their sexuality to complement their partner may have been an evolutionary result in order to maintain the continuance of the species. Therefore, having one sexuality is, to the Gethenians, a perversion that may threaten the species. Many types of animals may have become extinct due to the lack of a suitable mate for reproduction. For instance, ...

Over the years, Chinese reforms transformed this country from a backward agrarian one into a leading industrial power, by industry of which the stability of many countries depends on. Another proof was the fact that since 2010, China has become the second largest economy in the world after the US, ahead of Japan, which had occupied this position for 42 years (Greenaway & Milner, 2010, p. 20). Today, China is the largest consumer, producer and exporter in the world. China encourages the discovery of new commercial and industrial enterprises, the implementation ...

This paper will further identify the underlying reasons for ideological inclinations of wartime reporting. ...

The debate on whether minors should be held in the same stature as adults for equal crimes is one that has been raging on for a long period. The debate is occasioned by the enticing argument that any form of societal and criminal misconduct should always be tackled by undertaking tougher punishments on offenders regardless of age. However, applying the same metric of punishment to juveniles as adults is not the solution. It is especially the case considering that research indicates that minors that receive adult sentences become more likely repeat offenders as opposed to those that go through ...

Yes. Nancy Grace seems to be fast in making conclusions and individual judgements. From the cases cited, Nancy seems naïve in the legal field and the way she manages vital information is extremely unprofessional. Grace used the murder of her college fiancée by a coworker to gather popularity and fame among the general public. Without even waiting for the official investigation reports to be broadcasted, she even reported that a random stranger was behind the incident. Nancy Grace doesn’t seem affected by the murder and her persistent cries for truth and justice are all in a ...

Racial inequality has always been rampant in many societies, as it is reflected in white privilege seen not only in the United States but also in Canada, Australia, Israel, and in many countries in Asia and Africa. In white privilege, there is racial advantage on the benefits of the Whites, as they enjoy greater earnings, life expectancies, and access to high-quality education and healthcare services, as compared to the Blacks. This is the effect of what is called stigma—a sociological concept that Erving Goffman developed in his book in the year 1963. Kowal (2011) repeated the words of ...

Abstract

The growing demand for the competitive specialists justifies the particular attention and concern to the Malaysian students’ reading comprehension skills from the Malaysian authorities.

In this report, we will critically analyze and summarize an interesting research work (Chachi, Taheri, and Viertl) related to testing statistical hypothesis when relevant data and confidence intervals are not precise. In classical Statistical inferences, we state a Null hypothesis about a precise parameter. Then, we test the validity of the Null hypothesis using classical Statistical tests using the concept of confidence intervals at some predefined level x (say 5%) based on uncertainty we can tolerate. If the value of the testing parameter lies in confidence interval 1-x, then the Null hypothesis cannot be rejected. If testing results shows ...

The changing status of children and self-report

This is mainly influenced by parent’s preferences and their involvement in the upbringing and day to day activities of their children. As such, some children end up short changed as their parents focus more on other ...

Fear appeals to be effective in order to attract someone’s attention to something or someone suspicious or dangerous. From personal experience, I would say that the most effective examples of persuasion based on fear are warnings regarding health and ...

Intelligence is a broad term which has various meaning attached to it, in all the languages of the world. Philosophers have been trying to understand and explain the meaning of the term ‘intelligence’ since centuries, and each one of them has come up with their own exemplification of the term. For example, Einstein terms intelligence, not as the occupation of knowledge, but it is more of imagination and creativity. Socrates, on the other hand, believes that intelligence is the self-knowledge of claiming that one knows nothing. Moving from philosophers, people have considered understanding the meaning of the term from ...

Abortion is a term that is used to define the premature termination of pregnancy.

The ritual of marriage is a very important milestone in the life of an individual and, more so, in the life of an individual who is also a devout Christian. The Scripture often mentions the sanctity of marriage as well as the permanency of it in one’s life.

At present, Catholicism does not permit divorced individuals to remarry unless and until they have had their marriage annulled by the Church. While the Orthodox Catholic views on remarriage ...

Central to the conundrum facing politicians and political scholars in the United States is the low and evidently waning voter turnout. Apparently, between 1964 and 2012, the turnout in Presidential elections declined from an estimated 69.3 percent to 56.5 percent of the total registered and eligible voters (DeSipio 2016: Module 6, Lecture 1). Now, in answer, state and national officials have issued proposals for different institutional reforms including “early voting [and] voting by mail” in some States as a means to encourage Americans to vote (Ginsberg, Lowi, Weir, Tolbert, and Spitzer 2014: 219).

In the court systems, various felonies are penalized following the court's guidelines. There are a variety of particulars that go into a sentencing pronouncement.

Exposition of competing positions:

Hard determinism argues that due to the fact that determinism is true, and there can be no choices that result in any specific outcome for the individual, there is no need to engage in moral discourse. The idea that all things are the result of abstract causes that cannot be effected in any way presents the idea that there is no need to assess the consequences of action. This is due to the fact that a person’s nature is primarily determined by their ultimate destiny. The principle of free will does not exist therefore, due to the fact ...

Happiness is one of the most sought, but yet one of the most elusive humankind’s wishes. The greatest thinkers in history have all touched the idea of the happiness, and possibly how to attain it. Many Buddhists will avoid any activity that causes pleasure, since they believe that positive physical sensations distract the brain from achieving meaningful moral clarity. In the Western world, the Utilitarian theory that happiness derives from the most amount of pleasure minus the least amount of pain, has really taken off in the last 50 years (with advertising suggesting that instant and temporary satisfaction ...

In 1980, then presidential candidate, Ronald Regan, used the term “Make America Great Again” as a promise that, if elected, he would address the growing concerns of the American people who were living in an America wriggled with unemployment and inflation, and restore a sense of supremacy that appeared to be escaping them. The struggles that the Americans were undergoing during that Regan 1980 run for president were not indicative of who Americans considered themselves to be; rather, masses of people felt marginalized and crippled because of low income or no income, and inflation suggested that as a collective ...
