    Lorin Bradbury's Analysis

    We are disappointed by Lorin Bradbury’s explanation of why women stay in domestic violence relationships. A more important question is “Why do batterers hit and attempt to control a person whom their cultural norms tell them to love and cherish?” This would have been an opportunity for the religious leader, Pastor Bradbury, to apologize for the countless Christian pastors over the decades who have counseled women to stay with abusive partners. It would have been the opportunity for the psychologist, Dr. Bradbury, to acknowledge the complex situation a person faces when they love and need someone who becomes dysfunctional and abusive when they drink. It would have been an opportunity for the human being, Lorin Bradbury, to show more insight…

    1. The Jendrassik maneuver played a major role on the patellar reflex. One of the prevailing hypotheses has to deal with the alpha-gamma co-activation theory. It states that the alpha motor neurons activates the motor tone, which leads to the spindles providing feedback to the brain. This process is done by the gamma motor neurons, who are in charge of controlling the stimulation of the cerebellum.…

    “Behind the SAT” by Andrew Brusso tells the story of the test’s rise to importance and how a device meant to eradicate an American class system instead helped create a new one. James Conant, a former president of Harvard and the father of testing, believed that in the fifty years preceding 1940s the United States went from being a “classless, democratic society to one that was relentlessly falling under the control of a hereditary aristocracy” (Brusso 53). Finally, Jefferson’s dream of a natural aristocracy could be put into effect. Conant believed that the SAT would determine and then select this natural aristocracy, creating a “new frontier for opportunity” (Brusso 53). What he wanted was to choose these natural elites fairly and precisely, send them on to universities, and leave the rest of the public to “a more modest yeoman’s existence based upon education through high school...”…

    The third theory that could be applied to Crundwell is the general crime theory that was developed by Gottfredson and Hirschi’s (1990). An individual’s ability to control their impulses is a factor in determining if they are going to commit a criminal act. Stereotypically, in a business establishment, one would need to have high self-control to be able to advance to a position of authority. The climb up the corporate ladder is not characteristically a quick climb and could take years. In Crundwell’s case, she was given the position without having to suffer through these requirements.…

    The Doctor is amazed by Frimbo, his skills and his “supernatural” powers. The conjure-man takes Archer by surprise, when he reviles doctor’s past and plenty of its details. Frimbo’s striking knowledge of Doctor's social reality and his personal life is the reason the novel’s narrator states that “Dr. Archer had come to observe and found himself the object of the observation” (229). The physician thinks that Frimbo is an extraordinary man, and recognizes their “similarly reflective minds” (214). This is where the reader sees that Fisher's novel centers around black intellectual life through the meeting and exchange between Doctor Archer and Frimbo, American and African.…

    According to this speech, Brissot believes that war is the best option in their situation as it will solidify and reinforce France’s identity as a nation that belongs to the majority of the people, and not the 1% of the previous First and Second Estates. It is desirable because the determination for liberty and violence that was used in driving out the French nobility, must be re-introduced as Brissot holds the idea that France can only be depicted as worthy of freedom from oppression through war. The notion that the people of France must be the first to draw blood is necessary in Brissot’s belief because it will exhibit their strength and unity in wanting to become a country that refuses to dishonour their people. It also depicts France as…

The Big Five is made up of the basic five personality factors: neuroticism, extraversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. While doing multiple studies, researchers did not being their theories about how many factors they would find or what the basic dimensions of personality would be, they let the data do all the talking. By collecting the data they were able to agree that the five basic dimensions of personality were considered to be the most commons ones. Exactly how universal are these traits?…
