There are instances, however, wherein some people are observed to deviate from the standard pattern of human behavior.

The first proposals of the European integration have been made at the Paris Conference in 1867. However, the practical realization of the idea of integration was not accomplished: the contradictions between the two countries were so deep that the awareness of the need to cooperate in the union went through two world wars and several local wars. Integration trends in Europe re-emerged immediately after the Second World War, when major European countries have realized that the restoration and development of national economies is the only possible way combining efforts and resources. Plan for the creation of the European Community ...

Abstract

Kurt Lewin, the father of social psychology, developed the change theory of nursing which is a three stage change model that necessitates the rejection and replacement of all prior learning. The stages in the model consist of unfreezing, change and refreezing. The change theory consists of three concepts which include driving and restraining forces and equilibrium. The driving forces ideally push a patient towards a particular direction hence facilitating change. The restraining force, on the other hand, tries to hinder the desired change by pushing the patient away from the driving forces in the opposite direction. The restraining forces' ...
