Increased live birth delivery of women with natal drinking or smoking: A nursing critique

Abstract Prenatal smoking and alcoholic drinking are for its serious health risks during and after live delivery. Amidst the ethical question on this maternal choice, a contention insists that alcohol and tobacco non-use prenatal and at natal has increased. Doubts on its validity were noted. My hypothesis: the observation came too early both in the national English and the global contexts. The contention was hard to sustain. The diverse factors affecting global decision making work against that contention. Both the American and English data failed to support that contention on the strong reality of the incomplete and potentially unsound ...

Chapter 20 Schools Don’t Improve if They Are Closed

This chapter is a critique of the Department of Education’s policy of closing under-performing schools in order to create better schools. The policy involves firing the school principal, some or all of the teachers, and in some cases completely closing the school (Ravitch, 2014, p. 214). After taking these steps, according to Ravitch (2014), a new school is created under control of a private education company or under direct control of the district school board. The argument from the writer is that schools can do better if provided with quality leadership, cohesion among teachers, and involvement from the ...

1. Sharon’s study is of a non-experimental, correlational design. In this observation study, children are videoed while playing their favourite game. A correlation is being sought between post-natal depression and the development of mother-infant relationships. 2. This study isn’t entirely ecologically valid. Playing a child’s favourite game with that child, in a one to one situation, is not representative of everyday life. Sharon is studying the relationship between mother and child, but this study doesn’t observe that particular relationship at all. Furthermore, it is possible that a mother may not be honest in her responses to the quiz ...
