Introduction

The behaviorism approach in psychology entails the suggestion that behavior can be studied through scientific research without delving into the inner mental states of the mind (Fridlund, Beck, Goldie & Irons, 2012). It is an approach considered as inclined to materialism such that, it opposes the fact that the mind acts independently. This particular approach to psychology assumes that human or even animal behaviors are heavily influenced by the immediate environment via reinforcement or association. One of the pioneers of this approach to psychology was the Russian psychologist, Ivan Pavlov who carried out extensive studies on classical conditioning (Fridlund, Beck, ...

Researcher

The role taken by the researcher is conducting specific, observable behaviors using more structures techniques and involved in participants when collecting data related to ethnographic information using less structured techniques (Oshima & Emanuel, 2013). The researcher, however, has no interactions with the subjects during data collection. The research can as well remain detached from the subjects and, therefore, uninfluenced by their view and ideas. The researcher as an observer places limitations on the behavior and settings that can be observed especially in natural circumstances. The researcher may not be in a position to collect supporting data by asking the subjects ...

Introduction

Pain is one of the common problems that affect many old people worldwide (Tse, Leung & Ho, 2012). Despite the high number of old people who are affected by it, this condition is normally undertreated. According to the Maslow Hierarchy Model of Needs, the high pain prevalence is likely to affect negatively the fulfillment of the psychological needs (Tse, Leung & Ho, 2012). This challenge comes in the wake of an increase in the life expectancy of senior citizens aged 65 years and above in the past few decades. Since 1999, the life expectancy of these group has improved by 11 ...

Computers are complicated machines that require multiple trial and error sessions to understand, and the different programs they carry, make it harder to do the same. My first experience with computers revolved around my parents purchasing an Acorn Archimedes sometime in the nineties; I cannot remember the exact date or year. Nonetheless, only the older children in the neighborhood could play computer games, and the adults found a different use for the contraption. At home, it was the same with my parents, especially my father who would spend hours in front of the machine as I silently watched his ...

Skin cancer is a growing epidemic around the world and rates of incidence rise every year (between 1992 and 2006, the increase was up to 77%). Skin cancer is usually directly related to ultraviolet radiation, especially from the sun and tanning beds. Additionally, there is a misconception that winter sun is less harmful than summer sun, which indirectly leads to numerous cases of skin cancer. Many skin cancers are treatable if detected early; however, prevention of unsafe sun exposure would decrease the number of diagnoses. Nurse practitioners have a great role in health promotion and skin cancer prevention, simply ...

Discussion Question 1

Informed consent is not an event and it is a process of communication that must continuously occur between the researchers and the participants. Being a process, then there are chances of mistakes and errors and this is even so for the well-trained and even the well-intentioned researchers. Individual informed consent does not necessarily offer the best approach to addressing the occurring mistakes and errors and there is need for alternative methods of consent (Shelton, Freeman, Fish, Bachman & Richardson, 2015). This is because it limits the communication between the research and the participant and at times, the participant may not ...

Reliability and validity are important concepts in determining the objectivity of a screening tool and its effectiveness in measuring the things that it intends to assess. According to the U.S. Dept. of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Policy Research (1999), a reliable screening tool yields similar results for a person who repeats the test. Validity, on the other hand, leads to sound conclusions from the test (Shimon, 2011). Both reliability and validity are related in the sense one cannot claim to have valid results if the tool used to come up with the results is not reliable. ...

The European Union did not begin, as many seem to think, as a diplomatic coalition of European states. Instead, the formation of the European Union was a practical financial decision, born from the changing face of the world after the end of the Cold War (Majone). The European Union is home to a wide variety of different people with different cultures; the purpose of the formation of the Union was not to homogenize the continent, but to form a coalition of independent states that worked together to counterbalance American economic and financial power, as well as the rising economic power of China (Dinan).
