Essays on Observing

Both the readings have a similar purpose and that is to explain what scientific research is and what its components are. Both of them are in the position to believe that science is not something that can be based on personal opinions; rather, it is based on evidence. Pring’s main argument is that the ontological dualism between quantitative and qualitative research are false (60). On the other hand, Chalmers strongly argues that in scientific research, the senses should be used objectively rather than subjectively (5). Both the scholars focus on scientific observation and how it should be done ...

Abstract

Some theories focus on explaining developmental changes that happen to humans. The Social Cognitive Theory represents one of the many theories of psychology that explain human behavior. The theory was introduced by Miller and Dollard in 1941 and later advanced by Bandura and Walters in 1963. The main concepts of the theory are personal, behavioral, and environmental factors. Other concepts including self-control and efficacy, observational learning, and many others help in understanding the interaction between the environment, person, and behavior. On the other hand, the theory operates on five assumptions that relate the theory to learning, language self-control, and ...

Introduction

Who wins and who loses? The one who wins has reflected his or her ability to influence the behavior of others. This is power. As defined by Robert Dahl, a leading political theorist, power is the ability of one to get another to do something he or she would not otherwise do as a result of the will imposed by the other, where adherence is driven by obligation rather than force. Power is dynamic, relative, situational and multidimensional. According to Steve Lukes, there are three dimensions of power. The first dimension of power is intentional and active, and involves ...

Bandura discovered the children would mimic, or repeat the behaviors they observed. On one hand, ...

Communication between people takes place every time and everywhere. Language is extremely powerful tool which helps people to understand each other's needs, wishes, expectations, convey meaningful messages and just reach a desired consensus. However, it often occurs that the way people speak, how they behave during a conversation, is much more important than what they actually say. The function of our facial expressions is “to convey delicate shades of emotion and intention” (Burling, 2015), as it is much easier than to do with a language. Likewise, observing people speaking or reacting to the co-speaker, not even hearing the words, ...

Are Parisians really rude or arrogant or is this another stereotype?

Introduction One of the critical issues that affect the study of human behavior is the way different people understand the responses given and give an accurate report on their findings. Various individuals have engaged in numerous anthropological and ethnographic researches in attempts to understand why some communities behave in certain ways. A widely held serotype is that Parisians are rude and arrogant and they often show a significant level of dislike to non-Parisians.

Craig (2015) defines team nursing as two or more people interacting interdependently with a common purpose, having measurable goals and encouraging mutual participation in problem-solving.

High scope education approach was developed based on the Piaget intellectual development theory. Therefore, the approach to education focuses on the individuality of the student as opposed to the collective approach. The students are supposed to learn realistically through experience as opposed to the impartation of knowledge through repeated reciting.

The approach to learning places more emphasis on the constructive process of learning needed to increase the intellectual imagination as well as the social ...

Description of the Challenge

I have witnessed cases where teachers face significant challenges in managing the behavior of primary school children. Teaching a large class of pupils with different abilities can cause a lot of irritation to teachers. I have seen the behavior of some kids disrupting the normal operations of classrooms or the entire school. Thus, a child may exhibit behavior that may make it difficult for the teachers to provide education for that particular pupil or their peers. Teachers are experiencing even greater behavioral issues that are associated with children with disability and those who have different social norms from that ...

Lawfulness alludes to consistence with the formal prerequisites of the law, including statutes and court choices. Legitimacy alludes to the recognition that police behavior is both legal and reliable with open desires. Responsibility is acknowledged through ...

Child development takes place in discrete phases and ranges from birth to adulthood. These stages of development comprise various interrelated aspects such as socialization, motor skills, language, cognitive ability, emotional aspects, and social interaction.

Piaget's model discusses concerns about the acquisition of knowledge and mechanisms of intellectual development.

Infant development and growth requires a combination of theories to ...

Introduction The case study method and the phenomenological study are two prominent methods of qualitative research design. The case study method involves an attempt to understand an issue or a problem using a case as an illustrative instance to elucidate features of a larger class of similar phenomena (Gerring, 2004). In contrast, a phenomenological study is used to describe particular phenomena, or the appearance of things, as a ‘lived in experience’ (Penner & McClemont, 2008). A phenomenological study is not aimed at explaining or discovering causes. Instead, its main aim is to arrive at the rich essence of experience lived ...

Abstract

This paper analyzes the importance of generator synchronization to the power grid, the required conditions to perform this procedure and the consequences of imprecise synchronization. For a generator to be synchronized to a grid, the voltage magnitude, frequency, phase sequence and phase angle must match. Manual synchronization depends on an operator to modify generator voltage and frequency, confirm phase sequences of generator and grid, and monitor phase angle difference to timely initiate breaker closure. Automatic synchronizers perform all these function through a computerized system that consists of complex algorithms and control systems, and are categorized in phase lock type ...
