Simple random sample

Overall, I rate this article as a 4 out of 5. It is very well organized, presents samples and comparisons and is very well written. The only thing, I would change in this article would be the organization of the topics. For Example, The hypotheses, methods and procedures were placed at the end with the results. I believe the hypotheses, methods, and procedures would have been more effective placed at the beginning of the article before the presentation of the data that is broken up into sections…

are respondents who are preferably the primary purchaser in their household and have some knowledge regarding EF products. The more accurately we are able to have our sample represent this population, the more accurate our final results will be. Since our main sampling method uses the convenience approach, the majority of our sample will be UFV students. Our working population, the UFV students, represent the multicultural aspect of our target population well. UFV has a variety of students from…

According to Bachman & Schutt (2014): Research should expose participants to no more than minimal risk of personal harm, researchers should fully disclose the purposes of their research, participation in research should be voluntary, and therefore subjects must give their informed consent to participate in the research, and confidentiality must be maintained for individual research participants unless it is voluntarily and explicitly waived. (p. 60) Although Dr. Coswalt protects the research…

Sophisticated Words on the Simple Life: Thoreau’s Rhetoric Nature is a complicated entity whom countless poets and writers have written about. Henry David Thoreau, a highly educated author who frequently wrote about nature, wanted to understand nature and, more importantly, life better. To do so, he went to live in the woods of Walden Pond for two years, and wrote a book about his time there. The resulting work, entitled Walden, discussed Thoreau’s time in Walden. The second chapter named…

Two authors, one born in 1812, the other in 1876. Two books, one a reflection of life in nature, the other, the tales of animal decivilization. Even though the two book topics carry strong, distinct differences, they both carry strong beliefs about the laws of nature. Henry Thoreau, the author of Walden, describes a two year stay in nature and how he developed different views on life and nature. Jack London, the author of Call of the Wild, wrote a story about how an animal goes from being a…

tried to make sense of how we currently regulate our roadways. I first looked closer at the vehicle titles the state provides, given the fact this this was of great interest to me. What I discovered was that the titles they provide are not an Allodial titles which would constitute absolute ownership of real property but instead feudal titles. These feudal titles are exactly like the land titles granted to peasants by nobles in medieval Europe when feudalism was the dominant social system. These…

very (very) and santaclos (Santa Claus). It appeared to me that these spelling were based on phonetics. The double R’s in very are an example of the stress placed on the word. The word cluster of tobe (to be) were repeating throughout the writing sample. The general area of punctuation was limited in this…

Leo Tolstoy pulls no punches when the story of The Death of Ivan Ilyich begins. The revelation that Ivan Ilyich has died was met with dismay and shock for all of the wrong reasons. Colleagues and “friends” became concerned for his death not because of the loss of his life, but for the inconveniences and changes it would cause for them. The lack of sincerity surrounding Ivan became very clear in the opening scenes of the story, and we quickly start to realize that Ivan lived a “false” life.…

settlement, opportunities of trade, or barbarically raiding villages. None of these would prove to be more pivotal than the settlement of Normandy in Northern France in 912 A.D. An agreement made between Rollo (Scandinavian descent) and Charles the Simple (French descent) was to grant land in return for protection of King Charles’ people. The agreement was known as the Treaty of St. Clair-sur-Epte.…

2) a,b : This passage is taken from "What is Enlightenment", by Immanuel Kant, from the first page of the essay. Kant is criticizing the over dependence of a grown up individual for nurturing and caretaking and possibly resisting the responsibilities brought to him. He says these deficiencies are caused by laziness and cowardice. Kant states that enlightenment is a man freeing himself from self-imposed nonage. He moves on explaining the reasons why this nonage takes place, and then moves on…
