Theory Application

Introduction: In introducing the main assumptions and tenets of both psychoanalytic and cognitive-behavioral theory it is important to account for the underlying principles that each is built upon. In order to contrast and compare these basic principles and how they focus on the underlying changes that are evident in the clients there is a need to develop an effective method for considering the cases that are available. The challenge in doing so is indicated by the underlying tenets of each theory. In regards to psychoanalytic theory, there is a need to understand the unconscious mental processes that occur. In ...

A great part of the history of the world is tied up with the histories of empires around the globe.

However, a great deal of the life around the world has been shaped by the legacies of various empires that existed. An empire can be described as a vast number of countries that have a single authority exercising power over them. In this context, ...

Acute ischemic stroke refers to the death of brain tissue caused by interruption of the blood flow to brain. This interruption is caused by occlusion of a cervical or cerebral artery, or cerebral vein (Uchino, Pary, & Grotta, 2011). It is among the leading causes of death in the world. According to the estimates of American Heart Association, nearly one stroke occurs in every 40 seconds in the U.S., approximating 795,000 cases of stroke per year (American Heart Association Stroke, 2015). Assessment and management of acute ischemic stroke patients need to be done as soon as ...

When any student begins their educational journey, together with their parents and caregivers, it is often an assumption that everything will work out well. The belief tends to be that the child will learn and understand all the concepts beginning from the most basic tasks, such as learning to write alphabetic letters, to the more complex tasks, such as solving challenging algebraic equations. However, this is not always the case, as some children, not only when they are young but also as they grow older, face many challenges that affect their learning. Learning disability is a complicated disorder affecting the ...

The primary diagnoses in Jon’s case are substance-related and addictive disorders, but he should also be assessed for impulse-control disorders. Although Jon reported experimenting with hallucinogens, he does not use them frequently and did not report using them within the past 12 months, so the most appropriate diagnoses based on the information provided are severe alcohol use disorder (303.90 [F10.20]) and mild cannabis use disorder (305.10 [F12.10]). Substance use is often a consequence of another root disorder, so additional diagnoses have to be explored (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). The most appropriate diagnosis based on Jon’s background information would ...

Peacekeeping

Since the great wars, the international community knew it was crucial to prevent the onset of another war as the conflicts had shook the balance of power and destroyed both infrastructure and lives for the sake of power. With the establishment of the United Nations after the Second World War, it was argued that the organization would become a beacon of peace and intervene once conflict brews in a region. Peacekeeping operations, in this end, would enable the international community to stop the progression of conflict that may threaten the rest of the world. While the thought of peacekeeping is ideal, ...

Introduction

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is distinguished by insulin resistance and a relative disorder in insulin secretion. The production and development of the disease is not completely understood and we find genetic factors as well as environmental factors affecting the insulin release. The disease is increasingly common and basically caused due to obesity and sedentary lifestyle. The chronic metabolic disorder affects both the insulin secretion and insulin action. It is the suppressed hepatic glucose production as well as lower insulin-mediated glucose uptake by the muscles that contribute equally to postprandial hyperglycemia.

The dominance of risk factors

Nearly 400 million people worldwide are affected by diabetes and ...

Political Implications of Sino-Saudi Relations to the US and Regional Affairs

Abstract As the largest and most influential nations in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia has been considered a valuable asset to any country wishing to have influence in the tightly-knitted Middle East.

One of these successful nations is the People’s Republic of China, which has strong diplomatic, economic and social partnerships with Saudi. China has been ...

Abstract

This report assessed what a business cycle is and what is the current situation of the Canadian business cycle by evaluating the business cycles in the history. Most emphases were made on whether the current Canadian financial recuperation is truly substandard or not.

Identify the Business Cycle

The term business cycle (or financial cycle or boom–bust cycle) alludes to vacillations in total generation, exchange and movement over a few months or years in the business economy. (Burns & Mitchell, 1946)

The business cycle is the upward and descending developments of levels of horrible local item (GDP). It alludes to the time of extensions and ...

Hepatitis is one of the most serious causes of liver disorder and dysfunction, which is responsible for one to two million deaths a year. Hepatitis can occur as infectious or non-infectious. Although major causes of hepatitis include viruses, the other common causes are autoimmune liver disease, obesity, alcohol, tobacco consumption and certain other medications and herbs.

Hepatitis and A and E are enterically transmissible viruses, while Hepatitis B, C and ...

In the morality play, “Everyman”, the author sees death as an inevitable act that comes to all mankind. In fact, the author perceives death and treats death as though death is a messenger from God. The general concept in the play is that no one can escape Death because God sends Death to remind mankind of His might. Ideally, the message of death in the play arises from the search for a motive for living. While Everyman attempts to make an agreement with Death so as to extend his time on Earth, Death tells him that he has no use ...

Abstract

The onset of immigration had long been a part of American history since its discovery in the 1600s and had shaped the country’s society and government throughout the years. In the early years, America had gladly opened its doors to the world without restrictions and some aided in the liberation of the country from English rule and into independence. However, as the years progressed, restrictions were imposed by the government due to the fear of these immigrants and eventually, due to the onset of illegal immigration. Reforms left and right were implemented to sustain America’s security, economy and ...

Let me start by briefly stating what the case is all about. In the case, Hussein, an owner of an apparently very attractive car, has been offered 4000 USD by Interjeet in exchange of his car. In other words, Interjeet wanted to buy Hussein’s car. Considering the average prices of automotive vehicles today, it would seem that 4000 USD is a steeply low price. As expected, Hussein did not give any word about Interjeet’s offer and has kept himself mum. He thought and felt that his car is worth more than what Interjeet has offered. Hussein did not ...

Discrimination on the basis of age is termed as ageism. Ageism has been prevalent for a long time in the western society as well as other societies; elderly are commonly being perceived as people of low value (Bowling, 2007). They are also considered to be a significant economic burden to the society; and is often perceived that any medical treatment would not bring much benefits to the elderly individual; and will be of a shorter duration; and that they have already had a ‘fair innings’ in life (Bowling, 2007).

Ageism is one reason why the elderly adults perceive themselves as stressed. Such ...

Abstract

In this essay, a description of the three most important features of an infectious disease so that it may be regarded as truly harmful and cause for great fear for the community’s health is made – the infectivity, pathogenicity and virulence. It is also justified and explained why these should be regarded as the most important ones, being that they are the ones that cause higher numbers of diseased people with great and quick consequences.

Furthermore, it is also explored why the others – toxigenicity, resistance and antigenicity – should only be regarded secondary to the onset of ...

Discourse as defined by Gee refers to the distinctive ways of speaking, acting, and writing. It is often coupled with the manner of interacting, dressing, mental thought, among other day to day activities. Discourses, in other words, refers to the cultural influences that contribute into the identity of an individual granted from the social setup in which he or she is exposed to. Therefore, Discourses are unique for particular groups of people depending on their cultural practises. It is essential to note that discourse is not static and easily changes from one way to another as people are exposed ...

The Disease

Alzheimer disease is popularly known as the disease of the old age. As one grows old, the risk of suffering from the disease increases. The disease is slowly progressive; it affects the brain, and is characterized by impaired memory, followed by disturbances in reasoning, thinking, planning, and perception (Crystal, n.d.). The possibility of having Alzheimer disease increases after the age of 70 years; nearly 50 percent of seniors aged ≥ 85 years can have the disease. In any case, it is not a normal phenomenon and not a normal part of aging. Researchers believe that the disease is due to nerve ...

Gabrielle Carlson’s “Early Onset Bipolar Disorder” (2005) article explains the certainty in diagnosing prepubertal children as a delicate matter. As an accurate diagnosis turns childhood into a minefield, a misdiagnosis belittles the complexities of children. Applying science and rooting characteristics out of a child is burdened with flukes. There is more arguing about a child not having a disorder than there is in accepting how an undeveloped youth can be diagnosed.

A prepubertal child should not be diagnosed with a bipolar disorder because he may grow out of it. It’s a flippant excuse but also the most natural decision to take. The behavior is ...

Much like the architectural blueprint of a house which reflects its functional layout depending on the wishes and needs of the client, the design of an organization is also indicative of its function as delineated by its founders. Design consists of people, the division of labor into different units and coordination between them (Jonker et al., 2012). This means getting people to assume roles and responsibilities, defining the relationships between various roles, setting up processes to get all tasks done, and establishing systems to facilitate these processes. External and internal factors influence organizational design at the onset and continually reshape ...

EBP is an interdisciplinary approach to clinical practice that is rapidly gaining popularity; its basic principle is that all decisions and interventions are made based on research studies and evidence derived from systematic collection of data, observation, experiment, questionnaire ...

Criminal behavior

Psychopathy or sociopathy as it is called at times, is a type of personality disorder, clinically regarded as ‘Antisocial Personality Disorder’ (APD). Although a big percentage of incarcerated convicts may be described as suffering from APD, only about one-fourth of them could be diagnosed for psychopathy. Also only a small percentage of these psychopaths are violent offenders. Exhibition of superficial charm and persistent lying are the two common traits of psychopaths. The emotional deficit of psychopaths limits them to experience only a narrow range of emotions. Psychopaths are very skilled in projecting themselves in good light and can beat psychological tests. Adult ...

The glider designs of George Cayley and Otto Lilienthal were a far cry from the technological sophistication of space flight, and 19th-century designs established basic principles still present in the design of the space shuttle. Mechanization, which started with the Wright brothers, powered flight, giving substance to the age-old human dream of manned flight. War and the onset of commercial flight produced massive improvements in aeronautical design and logistical advances. In the modern era, the very concept of flight has taken mankind into space and inspired plans for manned space travel.

The Arc of Progress: Flight and the Evolution of Aeronautical Technology

In 1810, British inventor George Cayley published a paper that ...

Clinical Case Study

The evidence based clinical literature reveals the difficulties in diagnosing Myocardial Infarction (MI) concomitantly with pre-existing left bundle branch block (LBBB) with the application of 12 lead ECG in the pre-hospital environment (Surawicz and Knilans, 2008). Indeed, the T waves and baseline ST segments incongruently displaced in negative direction in cases of LBBB as evident through the ECG findings. These abnormal variations in ECG findings tend to override the actual ECG results in relation to MI manifestations, thereby challenging the confirmation of MI with the ECG intervention. However, the moving ST segments revealed through the serial ECGs during ischemic ...

An Argumentative Paper on the Importance of Sleep Quality over Sleep Quantity among College Students

XXX ENGL 106 Sleep quality is extremely essential for both adolescents and young adults because the brain is still developing. In comparison to sleep quantity, sleep quality has a greater impact on the cognitive performance, vulnerability to depressive symptoms, and life satisfaction of college students. Getting quality sleep enhances processing of social experiences and other information. Sleep deprivation studies demonstrate that low sleep quality adversely affects mental concentration, memory, emotional control, and behavioral competence. All of these aspects are vital to the growth of fundamental social interaction abilities and to academic outcomes. Low sleep quality also raises health ...

The Role of Functional Radicals – A Report

ABSTRACT Research is limited on the benefits of explicit teaching of Chinese second language (CSL) adult learners about the functions of radical components of Chinese characters. The following research, analysis, and discourse provides how CSL adult learners indeed benefit from the explicit instruction of all components of the radicals of Chinese characters at the onset of their learning. This connects to providing them a better understanding of the Chinese language as a non-alphabetical based framework especially for those students with English as their primary language. The following findings researched how a better understanding of such aspects of radicals including phonetic and ...

The US Subprime mortgage crisis was a banking and financial emergency situation that led to a recession not only in the US but spread to many parts of the world. The disastrous effects of a crisis in the domestic subprime market on the rest of the world beg questions about the interconnectability and interdependence of the international economy as well as the financial institutions. The international financial crisis also revealed how vulnerable the global financial system was. Not only did the subprime crisis have a direct effect on global markets and countries that held a huge number of US mortgage backed securities and were ...

Rome: From Republic to Empire

The founding of Rome has been embroiled in mythical explanations for many years. However, far from the point, it is important to understand the history of Rome from its various perspectives. As one of the greatest empires of the world, one is most likely to come across the Roman Empire firmly engrained in the rocks of history. The amazing armies, expansive road networks, and brilliant architectural pieces all point to one of the greatest empires of the world. However, Rome was not always an empire since it existed as a republic at some point in its growth and civilization. ...

I. Introduction There several reasons why one would want to prevent juveniles from being delinquents or from pursuing actions that would lead them to continue to delve into delinquent behavior. One of the most obtrusive reasons for doing such is that delinquency holds the youth at risk. These risks are for school drop outs, drug use and dependency, further injury, incarceration, adult criminality and early pregnancy (Greenwood, 186). Protecting the youth from such delinquent acts saves them from wasting their lives. Of course, many other reasons arise as well. As Greenwood (186), narrates, most of the adult ...

In spite of the significant advancement in science and technology, the science behind lifespan is still a mystery. The theories that explain the process of aging and life span, are broadly divided into programmed and error theories (Jin, 2010). Though none of these theories are completely satisfactory, they do help to enhance one’s understanding in the area. According to the programmed longevity theory, aging follows a biological timetable, which is innate and heritable. The theory was first suggested by August Weismann. He theorized that; there is an actual limit to the extent of somatic cell division in a species, and this is ...

Abstract

Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder characterized by distortion of reality, disturbances of thought and language, and withdrawal from social contact. It can also result in cognitive disturbances. Cerebellar dysfunction, movement problems, and postural control are also among important problems of schizophrenia. Various factors are involved in the development of schizophrenia. In these factors, hereditary characteristics, environment, and brain structure and function are found to have an important role. Medical imaging techniques such as positron emission tomography (PET), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can help in studying the disease. This paper deals with some important aspects of ...

Water can be considered one of the most vital resources in the planet because of its benefits to every aspect of life. Aside from being used for drinking, water ensures that life is continously sustained around the planet. However, as mankind continues to grow, supplies of critical resources like water are slowly drying out due to various causes. While a majority could argue that it is due to the changing climates causing extreme heat, there are others saying that the reducing supply for water is because of pollution. For countries like the United States, issues regarding water supply and pollution ...

Abstract

In the movie Still Alice, Alice, a successful woman, after being diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's Disease (AD) loses almost all she had. Alice’s case doesn’t typically fall under the traditional age bracket for the onset of Alzheimer’s because she is only 50. However, the symptoms she displays clearly fall under the earlier DSM-IV criteria of diagnosis. Under the new DSM-5 criteria, she would still be a fit case for Alzheimer’s because she has been experiencing a gradual decline in her autonomy. She loses control over her speech, mobility and motor functions until she becomes completely dependent on ...

Introduction

Childhood obesity is a contemporary problem of great relevance. Rates of the children diagnosed with this condition have increased considerably in the recent decades. Studies account that about 30% of children and adolescents in America are obese (Kiess 213). Obesity can easily be recognized; however, it cannot be treated easily. Nutritionists mainly associate obesity with unhealthy weight gain caused by aspects such as lack of exercise and poor eating habit. An abnormal weight gain trend indicates the likelihood of developing an obese condition. However, a child is not regarded obese until when he or she records a weight of at least 10% ...

Abstract

There have been times during which humans have been up against each other. Humans are known to be competitive with each other, a fact that is both advantageous and disadvantageous. An advantage of the fact is that, in terms of economy, the competitive nature of human beings has helped countries move forward and be able to offer their citizens with all that they need. It, however, becomes a disadvantage when greed sets in. There are times when some people feel that they are not complete when they are not ahead of others. This is in most cases reflected in terms of ...
