1 A I agree with Joh (2004)’s idea that there is a new silver platter doctrine in the making. Here, private cops now have the ability to present the “silver platter to local, state, and federal public policing agencies. Now, this doctrine focuses on the fact that private officials can turn over evidence to their federal counterparts without much regard to suppression even if the former obtained this information through illegal search processes. In essence, the doctrine does not allow public police agencies to conduct unreasonable search and seizure activities. Thus, all pieces of evidence obtained using this ...

Abstract

Stress is one of the most prevalent psychological conditions in the contemporary world, yet also one of the most misunderstood. Millions of people suffer from some form of stress in their lives, but few understand that not only is it an abnormality but it can also be successfully managed to lead quality lives. The most common catalyst for stress is work, where people are subjected to high-pressure situations that, if poorly handled can trigger the onset of short-term or long-term susceptibility to stress. For emergency response personnel, stress is a part of routine operations, and research has shown that ...

Bergstrom, J., Dahlstrom, N., Henriqson, E., AND Dekker, S. (2010). Team Coordination In Escalating Situations: An Empirical Study Using Mid-Fidelity Simulation. Blackwell Publishing Ltd. This article provides a study regarding the various aspects of team coordination in situations that are unexpected and which seem to increase. In this regard, the authors look at teams that are able to exercise a high level of control in the escalating situations by ensuring that they diminish the effects of the overload of information through the use of clear goals that the members have already agreed upon instead of wasting time by embarking ...

The most interesting point besides the argument is that according to the author there is a division between morality and politics. It seems that in their opinion that there is too much focus on people being able to live a bare life rather than a life that is happy, and free of inequality and poverty. Instead of just focusing on allowing people with life-threatening diseases/ injuries in the country, the French government must realize that their help is not solving the underlying issues that have caused people to be desperate enough to cause injury to themselves. There needs to ...

A state has been perceived as a vital component of social and economic development. Most people regard effective administration as a main agent in the implementation, as well as the formulation of development programs. In the 1950s, several developing countries embraced various mechanisms for delivering political and economic benefits to people. This led to the expansion of public administration (Shafritz, Russell, & Borick, 2015). Additionally, the States took a leading role in accelerating development. The theories of public administration also developed during this time. However, tracing the point at which theory and practice of public administration began is not possible. ...

Introduction5 Literature Review..6 Conclusion....11 References..12 Abstract Negative (opposing or intimidating) events arouse robust and speedy physiological, rational, emotive, and social reactions. This organization of the organism is accompanied by physical, cognitive, and interactive results that diminish, lessen, and even wipe out the influence of that incident. This array of mobilization-minimization seems to be bigger for undesirable events than for unbiased or positive happenings. Hypothetical explanations of this response form are reviewed in this paper. Further, it will give a verdict on whether negative bias has been helpful or harmful to the process of human evolution. It is established that ...

The Canadian healthcare and social assistance sector falls under the NAICS classification. The sector entails a publicly funded healthcare system. The sector is guided by the provisions of the Canada Health Act of 1984 (Belchetz). The sector, relative to its peers in most other countries including the U.S and Mexico, is unique. Its uniqueness arises from the fact that despite being predominantly publicly funded, most of the healthcare services at the point of sale are provided for by private practitioners. The Canadian healthcare and social assistance sector has been billed in many quarters as a model to be followed ...

PMS- as a defense

According to the various cases described where women turned excessively violent and killed people in a rage, their ascribed behavior has been linked with PMS as a trigger which led to these incidents. PMS is experienced by women before and during menstruation due to the hormonal changes in this time period. It can lead to depression, anxiety and when situations seem unbearable, women are believed to turn excessively aggressive and violent. In my opinion, PMS is not enough to be credited as a major or ultimate reason of why women can become aggressive, violent and murderous at a distressing ...

Introduction to the Health Issue

One of the notable health issues that remain relevant in the health system today is childhood obesity affecting children between the ages of 2 and 19 years.

Currently, one out of every five children aged between 6 years and 19 years suffers from obesity (as highlighted in figure 1) (Bariatric Surgery Source, 2016). Obesity results from a situation where the body has excess fat that it is not able to ...

The transitional phase between childhood and adulthood is a stage in human development and growth commonly described as adolescence. This stage begins at the age of around 11 to 13 years with the start of puberty which means the development of the reproductive processes. In the United States, adolescence is defined as the age span of 10 to 24 years (Edelman, Mandle & Kudzma, 2014). Unlike childhood stages where growth is slow and steady, adolescence is a period characterized by rapid changes in cognitive, physical, psychosocial, moral and spiritual growth as the shift from childhood to young adulthood takes place. ...

In the event of such events, there is a marked increase in the range of cognitive and coordination skills needed to control the situation. Since the problem ...

Over a long time, there have been witnessed various disasters that occur beyond human control. The natural disaster tends to take place any time of the year regardless of whether tourism is at its peak or not (Ritchie et al. 15). Therefore, it happens that at times the natural disasters become one of the most challenging situations people encounter at diverse economic regimes. In most countries, a natural disaster has led to the loss of lives of many people including the tourists. Moreover, it is evident that natural disaster does not choose the place to occur, and hence it ...

Introduction

The book The Lucifer Effect by Philip Zimbardo argues that beneath any man lies some degree of evil, so detrimental if exposed under duress. The Lucifer Effect explains how good men can transform when exposed to stressful environments to commit heinous activities beyond imaginable moral magnitudes. In this regard, the author empirically explains the findings of the Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE) the processes involved in transforming good men into committing evil and heinous activities under duress and powerful situational forces. A comparison between the SPE findings and those of the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq have strong correlations in ...

My friend (I interviewed) works at a renowned call center in Manhattan. He told me that a job at the call centre is not very easy as people generally think about it. Call centers have their own challenges and problems that have to be overcome by the frontline, which is the employees, on a daily basis. Handling all kinds of people and attending dozens of calls in a shift requires good energy and patience. My friend has to travel back and forth a lot in a cab, and that also normally adds to his stress.

Medical researchers have highlighted four main competency domains that touch on every aspect of caregiving from a team-based perspective to foster proper care of patients. In this light, competency domain 1 touches on the values and ethics for interprofessional practice to promote ...

Stress is a state of threatened homeostasis that triggers an array of adaptive physiological and behavioral response in an effort to reestablish homeostasis. (Edelman & Mandle, 2014) The emergence and experience of stress depends not only on objective, but on subjective factors, the characteristics of the man himself: assessment of their situation, mapping their forces and characteristics that are required, etc. Any surprise which breaks the habitual course of life can cause stress or stressor. It does not matter the content of the situation and the degree of objective threat. Important is a subjective attitude. A stressor is the factor ...

Have a company policy

The first thing to understand about a sexual harassment complaint is that it is unlike many other workplace conflicts. Sexual harassment is an illegal act, whereas some other conflicts are not illegal, but issues of personality issues, inappropriate competition, or other problems which, although serious, do not violate federal law. Therefore, if Ana’s company does not have a written sexual harassment policy, the first thing the HR department should do is develop one and provide training so that all employees are aware of its provisions and understand how to abide by them (Heathfield 2016). Such a policy could ...

This type of learning facilitates education involving direct participation in real life events and settings. It also involves the formation of abstract concepts, reflection and observation, and concrete experience besides concrete experience, reflection ...

Also, authoritarianism often leads to a lack of creative solutions to current problems that may ultimately have a negative impact on the performance of the group. 2. A person with high EQ takes the initiative, finds ways out of difficult situation and solves the problem constructively. A characteristic feature of a well-developed emotional intelligence is friendliness. My ...

Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand and manage one's emotions as well as emotions of people around you. The proponent of emotional intelligent Mr. Daniel Goleman brought about the five elements of emotional intelligent. The first element is self-awareness.

Self-awareness is brought about by humbleness and realization of individual strengths and weaknesses. To foster self-awareness, you can keep a journal of your thoughts because your thoughts affect your emotions. Besides, you are required to take time ...

Introduction

A DC –9, twin-engine plane belonging to ValuJet, a fast rising Airline Company crashes into a swamp and kills everybody on board. This includes the pilots, 105 passengers, and the flight attendants. It is a terrible scene to witness such a scenario especially considering that flights are the safest mode of transport. The term safety is, however, relative when it comes to an accident where almost everybody in the plane is killed thus making it tragic (Langewiesche, 1998). Despite the tragedies that come with plane crashes, the amount of seriousness given to it at the time of occurrence is ...

There are so many airports globally, that handle a large number of people than any mode of transport. Air transport has enabled the economic growth to most of these countries. They also operate at all times of the day yearly. There are several security measures in airports which have been there since long time ago. With the current revolution in technology all over the world, I personally agree that airport security should be increased.

The main belief that Bennett communicates is coordinated charity; she is opposed to uncoordinated charity work. She says that results in delay in the most efficient emergency responses from trained people such as the army, firefighters, and medical practitioners (Bennett). I am in agreement with the author’s claims. Moreover, I am impressed by the way she blatantly attacks the people that involve themselves with the emergency responses yet they have no training at all. The society needs such authors that illuminate the real issues facing different communities. Additionally, the fact that the author provides alternatives for people to ...

Judicial Activism of the Court of Justice of the European Union

Since the ECJ handed down the 2005 Mangold v. Helm case, there have been several criticisms provided by different scholars of the decisions it made and what they believed had various consequences for the European Union law. Essentially, the decisions made by the court involved several queries, but the main one was applicability of European Union age‐based anti‐discrimination law in situations involving the fixed‐term employment contracts. The contracts were founded on the law that permitted the fixed‐term contract with no demands for the objective reasons that justified the limitations of the employment period past the ...

Written in 1759, Voltaire’s Candide is an adventure novel that tracks the life of Candide, an innocent boy who is desperately in love with a girl. However, this love story is unusual in that Candide embarks on a number of journeys and faces tough situations, and all underneath a satiric writing style. Candide teases the archetypal coming-of-age novel and particularly literature’s representation of romantic love. As Nelly Severin points out: ‘Some critics have seen in Candide a parody of “romance” and Voltaire certainly used an array of “romance” commonplaces, such as shipwrecks, pirates, bastard births, abductions and ...

The political elements of Star Trek show that the series had more insight than what is apparent. The show started in the 1960s when the Cold War was at its height.

However, George Gonzalez takes a different approach in The Politics of Star Trek where he undertakes a critical review of the story within the context of the actual implications of the actions of the characters. This paper will review the first two chapters of the book in order to present the critical ...

Over time, a tremendous change has characterized cognitive science across its theoretical and applicative platforms. Research has been conducted to establish the cognitive perspective outlining the relationship between cognitive models and a teacher’s instructional approach (Xiong, Li, & Qu, 2015). Beliefs, goals, and knowledge influence the teachers’ cognitive modeling roles in the classroom by determining essential learning activities and decision-making processes. Cognitive modeling learning activities give room for students to express their internal thoughts on their instructional activities and cognitive ideas in a well-structured market (Xiong et al., 2015). Cognitive models are founded on basic principles of cognition. A ...

These two authors came up with this model after many decades of research in an attempt to investigate the qualities of good leadership, the changes in technology, the environment, and the society. According to their model, a leader is supposed to be a way maker. He or she should come up with sensible ways to overcome social problems experienced by his subject. The paper ...

Question 1

Types of Nonverbal Communication There are different ways through which individuals can communicate nonverbally. Gestures, physical distance/personal space, facial expressions, and posture are examples of non-verbal communication techniques (Burgoon & Guerrero, 2013). Gestures can be touching behaviors, agreed-on signs, or signs that accompany verbal communication (Burgoon & Guerrero, 2013). Also known as proxemics, maintaining personal space and physical distance when communicating plays a critical role in passing a message. Proxemics also determines the settings and environment under which people communicate, for example, public, social, personal, or intimate spaces (Burgoon & Guerrero, 2013). Facial expressions can be used to communicate happiness, sadness, disappointment, ...

Leadership cannot be fully exercised without self-awareness. To be conscious of oneself is to have self-knowledge and to be mindful of others. A leader who has introspection is more likely to practice social change in the society. I believe I am becoming more conscious of myself because of a series of actions that I partake from time to time. There are various ways to become more aware of oneself, and it is entirely necessary to establish it since it will lead to social change in the long run. Firstly, keeping a journal is one way of becoming self-aware; this ...

Introduction

In a landmark case, the judges concluded that for the success of a modern liberal nation, there must be a constitutional protection that ensures that the constitution promotes free expression “by establishing a marketable right to the use of one's expression, copyright supplies and the economic incentive to create and disseminate ideas”. Thus, by implication, copyright is supposed to be “an engine of free expression”. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the accuracy of the claim that copyright is an engine of free expression. The paper will critically assess the original position taken on copyright by the ...

Part 1: Active Shooters

There has been an increase in the number of shootings in hospitals as well as other institutions around the country (Hospital Employee Health, 2013). The increase in these cases has made institutions to start preparing their employees on how to react if such a shooting occurred in their organization. There are similarities in some of the hospital shooting cases. In St. Vincent’s Hospital, the shooting was unpredictable and could not be prevented. This was similar to the case of the Western Psychiatric Institute shooting in Pittsburgh (Thomas, 2012). The Joint Commission agrees that there has been an increase ...
