Bryman, (2015) enlightens that research designs helps in formulating adequate research methods to help a researcher to achieve the objectives of his or her research project. To this end, a social scientist is likely to select the research design to utilize in a certain project based on the unique needs of the research project in consideration. Babbie (2015) argues that exploration design is best when a research intends ...

Benford's law also known as the first-digit law deals with the distribution of natural numbers in which it tends to major into their importance regarding significance. The law states that given any arrangement of natural numbers, the smallest number always seems to be the most significant while the largest number in the collection is always the least significant. Therefore, number 1 appears to be the most significant in any given combination of natural numbers 30% of the times. While on the other hand, number 9 appears only 5% of the times as the most significant number. The law states ...

“If it has ‘science’ in its name, it ain’t (Minnick).” Those words were said to this writer by the smartest person he ever knew personally, a man with PhDs in Mathematics and Physics, a true scientist. He went on to explain that science, if it is science, can be reduced to mathematics and then can predict. “Science can generate electricity or flatten cities,” he said. The problem, of course, is that whenever one deals with the “soft sciences,” political science or economics (the dismal science) or sociology or history or any of the disciplines that are housed in ...

Introduction

The Ebola virus has existed for centuries. Like all life forms and viruses, it has been changing and adapting since the beginning of time to survive. Despite this the disease did not make itself known until the twentieth century. However, once the virus revealed itself only three major outbreaks have occurred. There were two in 1976 and one which took started in 2014 (CDC, 2015). The latest outbreak has been the longest and worst, effecting numerous countries such as, Mali, Nigeria, Liberia and Senegal in West Africa (CDC, 2015).

The most promising concept I learned out of Taylor’s TED talk is the importance both halves of the brain play in human existence. In particular, I am fascinated by the connection the right hemisphere has to the “nirvana” or “la-la land” connection in our lives. You see, when she was talking about her awareness at leaving her body and moving into the nirvana state, I found it interesting that as a scientist she did not specifically call it what many others might refer to as, this being “heaven.” And yet, here is a case where a well-trained, knowledgeable ...

It is redundant to acknowledge what a crucial role technology plays in our lives today. Over the last century, such scientist as Gerhard Lenski, Leslie White and Alvin Toffler introduced their theories trying to break down the issue into smaller pieces and offered their view on the evolution of the technologies, the reasons that stand behind and perspectives for the future. Gerhard Lenski was a scientist that produced one of the theories about the types of societies that can be defined by their technologies. He was a true believer that technology is the main force that drives change and ...

A Look at the History of CSI

Dynell Trudell Saint Leo University Abstract “Forensic science” is the applying of science to civil and criminal laws. “Forensic Scientists” assemble, conserve, as well as examine scientific proof throughout the way of an investigation. A few “Forensic Scientists” actually go out to the scene to gather the proof themselves; but rather engage a laboratory position, performing studies on subjects brought to their place by other people. Furthermore, “Forensic Scientists” give proof as unique observers in all cases and may work for either the resistance or the indictment. This paper will show the development of Crime Scene Investigation techniques and ...

Global Warming Phenomenon

The issue of global warming has been a critical problem across the entire world due to the effects associated with this condition. Global warming is caused by the increase in Earth's temperatures due to the effect of greenhouse gases. The greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide emitted from burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas to provide energy are responsible for trapping heat and preventing it from escaping from the Earth’s atmosphere. Human activities like cutting down trees and burning forests for farming activities has been attributed to the emission of greenhouse gases that are ...

Introduction The family is the basic unit of society. From this structure, individuals learn the tenets of how to integrate into society and cope with other members. Most mammal species live in the family unit, be it nuclear or extended. Within the family, members learn to bond, share and assist each other with difficulties. The human species shows the most sophisticated form of human organization. When children get born, they only get taught how to survive as adults, but there are certain values that parents must pass on to their children. Each family and society have different values and ...

In this article, I would like to talk about the historian Howard Zinn, without going into the details of his biography. Because you can easy found this information on the Internet. I would consider his views on history in general, why and under what circumstances its occurred. Howard found himself in history and political science since his youth. A first rally Zinn visited when he was a seventeen-year-old young man, the friends who were breathing unevenly to the communist ideology invited him. After the meeting, young Howard changed his mind about the rule government and human rights in general. ...

Now and then there has always existed a phenomenon of prejudice or prejudgment, i.e. an unduly opinion towards a particular group of people or even a person based on general idea but lacking plausible information. A prejudice can be both negative and positive. In the first case, a hostile attitude is formed towards some people or process. However, a positive prejudice is unreasonable but favorable attitude. The bases for prejudgment may vary greatly: it can be religious affiliation, life style, social class, profession or occupation, hobby, nationality or ethnicity, language and gender, age, etc. As noted by Gordon Allport ...

Describe scientific explanation in detail. How does it relate to scientific hypothesis and scientific theory?

The term explanation may mean different things, especially in a wider perspective. However, in science, an explanation refers to the answer to a question that have stemmed from curiosity. Curiosity gives rise to questions that call for answers or explanations. Curiosity and inquisitiveness are among the characteristics that drive science to explore knowledge and use it for practical applications. The curiosity to know why the apple has fallen down from a tree has led Newton to wonder and apply the scientific method to arrive at a valid scientific explanation—the Law of gravitation. In short, the explanation that resolves ...

A genre helps people classify films according to its category or type. It is convenient as viewers know what to expect when they see certain iconography at the advertising bill for instance. Different film genres possess familiar story formulas, character types, settings, and iconography etc. (Goodykoontz & & Jacobs, 2014). Main film genres are: westerns, gangster films, mysteries, film noir, horror, fantasy, science fiction, romantic comedy, musicals and documentaries. In this paper, the fantasy genre will be discussed on an example. Fantasy genre is always a story which lets its characters escape from reality, experience situations where they act beyond the ...

Radiology, without which it is impossible to imagine modern medicine, was born with the discovery of the penetrating radiation made by German physicist Roentgen. This industry has largely contributed to the development of medical diagnostics. As any other industry, its development was revolutionary and has been infuenced by modern technologies. Today, X-ray diagnostics gets a new development. Using age-old experience of traditional radiographic techniques and armed with new digital technologies, X-ray diagnostics is still a leader in diagnostic medicine. In 1894 German physicist Roentgen (1845 - 1923) launched an experimental study of electrical discharges in the glass vacuum tubes. ...

INTRODUCTION

What is science exactly? The most generalized definition might be the pursuit of knowledge that can be studied, that can be tested through tangible experiments and then can be proven through repetition and presented in real world parameters. Science considers all possibilities but it does not necessarily answer to religious ideologies and philosophical principles that many adhere to, because science only supports what can be proven to be factual. Science, in all of its facets, has been and remains often controversial discipline, whether it is chemistry, robotics or genetics. The source of this consistent public criticisms and questioning of ...

Introduction

Science has made a systematic process to solve a certain problem. It is more commonly known as the scientific method. This method is very suitable for processes such as experimentation because this will enable an individual to determine the cause-and-effect relationship of the phenomenon that is being tested (Science Buddies, n.d). For further definition, the steps in the scientific method are generally consisted of creating a specific question, then doing a background check related to the question. Afterwards, a hypothesis, or an educated guess, will be formulated which will then be tested through experimentation. After experimentation, the data that ...

Introduction:

“The Hunger Games” and “Oryx and Crake” are books set in fictional post-apocalyptic worlds. This paper seeks to examine the main fundamental human fears that exist in the two novels and storylines. In line with this, the main and fundamental fear in these two novels is the fear of being able to control what we create and what to come. This directly results from not knowing our potential in terms of what one can achieve. Furthermore, it results from not knowing the results and consequences of our actions. The books give an idea of what will happen in the ...

In his article “Genetics after Auschwitz” David Suzuki discusses the necessity of studying and evaluating the history of science. His main claim lies in the fact that throughout history scientists didn't always follow ethical standards. For instance, there were cases when geneticists believed in the theory of selective breeding and they carried out a number of researches in death camps. Suzuki believes that knowing the whole history of scientific work, including even the most unpleasant and terrible cases, will help scientists not to make the same mistakes which they did in the past. All in all, the author successfully ...

Individual Reaction to the Advent of Artificial Intelligence

Introduction Through advancements in science and technology, human beings have managed to create machines that work more or less in the same way as the human brain, performing tasks like mathematical calculations and language translations. This is what has come to be known as Artificial intelligence (AI) which is the kind of intelligence that machines exhibit when certain manipulations and programming is done to them. Some of these machines like the IBM computer, Watson, are capable of mimicking or performing certain cognitive functions that are normally associated with the human brain only. Artificial intelligence research thus deals with problems ...

[Class Title]

Introduction There is no limit to what human intellect can achieve. This mindset is particularly evident during the Renaissance; a period in European history wherein there was a significant ‘rebirth’ or revival of classical work. Scholars believe that the Renaissance started sometime in the 13th century and ended at the onset of the postmodern era in the late 16th century. During this period, Europeans became increasingly interested in the arts, architecture and science of ancient Greek and Rome. The significance of the Renaissance is that it ended the long period of cultural darkness that characterized the Middle ...

That a man should hate oneself is a common phenomenon, which everyone experiences once in a while, because of people’s intrinsic flaws. These flaws ramify into people’s creations such that there is not one thing a man has created, which does not have to endure a measure of hatred from the rest of society. The creature in Frankenstein is no different from men’s inventions, whose hideous nature was not apparent at the time of their inception, and abhorred for what passed as evil yet not appreciated for the utility its creator envisaged. The guiding question for ...

Marie Curie's contribution to science cannot be overemphasized. Her work in Physics and Chemistry do not lose its relevance to this day, and, without her discoveries, it is not possible to imagine the study of radioactivity. And yet, her role in history is important not only because of the scientific achievements. The great importance of a time, when they were made, gives Marie Curie's breakthroughs so much significance: the time when women did not have the opportunity to study, not to mention the scientific activity. Dedication, perseverance, and faith in that she is doing the right things helped Marie ...

When I first sat down to write about this topic, I started the research. I found stories that show scientist who want to grow embryos past the current 14-day limit, in a lab. I also found a story about the Death with Dignity act. Both are on opposite ends of the life cycle and both are ethical issues. Both topics have lessons to learn through listening to the stories of others. The embryo issue is something that parents of children with disabilities could benefit from, because the research could help them understand how their child was born with ...

Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Birthmark tells the tale of Aylmer and Georgiana. They are husband and wife, but it is not a typical love story. Aylmer is a psychotic scientist, out of his mind on a journey to control those around him. Georgiana, use to men lusting after her beauty and birthmark, is a tender, vulnerable, intelligent woman who only wants to make her husband happy. While they are both technically human, the characters are primarily different for many reasons. Aylmer is perhaps one of the maddest and most complex characters in literary history. While intelligent, he is intellectually ...

The first image that comes to mind when thinking about the ethical implications of defense engineering is the first scene in the movie Real Genius, where several men who represent a counsel of defense are sitting around a table watching video clips of a new weapon that is being developed at Caltech University. This was an idea for the end of the 20th century. The movie was filled with ethical questions and moral imperatives that imply the ideas of ethical technology in the military. Science, University Students, and Engineers make a significant contribution to the advancement of defense technology. ...

Science and art have always been considered to be two different worlds that were inhabited with two different types of people. Everyone seems to know what kind of people artists are: they are usually in love with their solitude, unsociable, but often friendly to those who are interested in their art. They love to be distinguished from the crowd and usually wear extraordinary clothes or jewelries. But what kind of people the scientists are? No one seems to discuss their personalities, and everyone knows about their achievements. The two books that I have familiarized myself with during this semester ...

In the early 1960s, a lot of people had no doubt that soon a third world war would start. It was supposed to be a nuclear conflict between the US and the Soviet Union, which would lead to the destruction of humanity, or at least to the collapse of modern civilization. Regularly occurring conflicts like the Korean War of 1950-1953 and the Cuban missile crisis of 1962 intensified the tensions and cultivated the fear in society. Sooner or later, with malicious intent or by mistake, the Cold War could turn into a "Hot War". Everyone understood it, and there ...

Creation is defined as the act of bringing something into existence, and the creation of man itself is normally attributed to procreation or an act of some divine being. Humans have for a long time marveled over the act of creation and its many varying concepts, including the prospect of creating another in their own image. In Mary Shelley’s fictional exploration of this theme in her novel Frankenstein, the rise and fall of scientist Victor Frankenstein showcases both the wonder and the downfall of mankind in his endless quest for the creative power of the divine. Once Victor ...

Abstract

The Columbine High School Massacre was the bloodiest school killing spree in the United States of America ever committed. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris killed 12 of other students, one professor and injured 24, before committing a suicide (Aronson, 2000). The perpetrators had versatile arsenal of weapons and pipe bombs, which, according to the US Security Service estimates was sufficient to kill 200 people (Kass, 2009). Theorists extensively debated about the motives of their attack. Some argued that the reasons were psychological (Atheide, 2009), while others actively advocated the notion that their attack was a retaliation for bullying and ...

Why Choose Biology

Many people study medicine when it comes to science in educational institutes. I chose to study biology. According to one source biology is "The science of life and living organisms, including their structure, function, growth, origin, evolution and distribution.” (The Free Dictionary). Biology allows us to test our thoughts on life and living subjects, find new or linked species and conduct reverse–engineering. Before becoming a doctor or nurse it is one of the subjects many will take. Before accepting a degree in engineering or the field of a scientist it is also one of the areas most studied ...

Introduction

For those people who have the knack to improve their diets and the surrounding, a shift from eating chicken and beef to consuming crickets, caterpillars and termites is a necessity. Insects are numerous, nutritious and ecologically bearable. In the contemporary world, persons have shunned the notion of including insects as part of their balanced daily diet, giving preference to the less nutritious and environmental unbearable food choices such as beef. The international organizations have been at the forefront addressing the need for the citizens of various nations to simulate the benefit of consuming insects. Additionally, this paper will argue ...

Ernest Rutherford and his contribution in radioactivity

Ernest Rutherford is termed as the Father of Radioactivity and nuclear science. Rutherford, who born in 1871 and passed on in 1937, discovered alpha and beta rays. He set forth the law of radioactive decay, identified the alpha particles as helium nuclei. Rutherford postulated the nuclear structure of an atom. His contribution to Radioactivity came from an experiment he demonstrated by firing alpha particles into gas atoms where few particles were seen to deflect. This implied a dense, positively changed central region of an atom contained an atomic mass (Dardo, 2004). Figure 1. Top: expected results, alpha particles passing ...

1. Problem Identification Merely documenting the scope of work that an employee is supposed to undertake does not mean that the employee will remain in the job to carry out their duties. For example, just by delegating duties to nurses in homecare such that some handle admission of clients (start of homecare), re-admission (continuation of or resuming home care) and discharge (Tourangeau et al. 2014). Although this will free other regular visiting nurses hence allowing them to concentrate on the visits themselves, retaining the nurses on the job calls for more hence an improvement of the nurses ITR. Though ...

In other words, they define an act of free will if the ...

Some researchers argue that the innovation in science has a direct relationship with the advancement in morality. This argument, therefore, shows the link that exists between science and moral aspects. These researchers address various reasons as to why they support the fact that moral values and scientific advancements have a relationship. Conversely, some scientists criticize the fact that morality has an influence on scientific research. Accordingly, these researchers also criticize the way in which scientific facts relate to moral values. This paper discusses the morals value associated with science showing both the agreements and disagreements presented by two different ...
