Through attending a neuroscience program called Camp Neuro at the New York Medical College and taking AP psychology, I have been able to apply my knowledge in myriad classes. My understanding of the biopsychosocial approach to psychology helps me analyze texts in English and moral situations in ethics. The interdisciplinary seminar Modes of Being would serve as a way to continue this intellectual exploration that I am already pursuing in conjunction with my major in psychology. I find that…
Two years ago during my junior year I was sitting in a cramped classroom filled with rowdy students when my English teacher assigned us a six page research paper. I would consider this research paper to be one of the hardest papers I had to write within three weeks. For most students three weeks is enough time to write a research paper unless you are like me who procrastinates often. Since my teacher gave us three weeks this gave me a great deal of time which brought a lot of distractions. My…
The first op/ed written by Rosecrans Baldwin suggests having boredom can be a valuable experience. The second op/ed is written by David B. Agus who claims that keeping patients’ records electronically can improve future medical treatment. The last op/ed by Jeffrey H. Tony discusses about whether using antibiotics in agriculture industry would result in antibiotic resistance of humans. All three articles are from people who have significant authority in writing. Baldwin is a writer, and the other…
and the research behind it. They also provide their own experimental research to the project. The Conduct Problems Prevention Research Group (2010) goes more into dept about how the project works in different stages of development as far as elementary school and middle school is concerned. They also found in their research that the Fast Track Project could provide help to the adolescence in their adult lives. The Conduct Problems Prevention Research Group (2015) extended this to research adults…

Population (2.5 points): The population in this study is nursing professionals. Research study design (2.5 points): This study is a nonexperimental design. In a nonexperimental design, the independent variable is not manipulated, it explores relationships between variables, and there is no controlled group. Independent variable (2.5 points): The independent variable in this article is the palliative care knowledge test (PCKT). Dependent variable (2.5 points): The dependent variable is to…
Overview Research is important to the professional nurse’s practice; this fact is substantiated in numerous textbooks, websites, and articles. Nurses are challenged to provide the highest quality care for their patients on a daily basis; the processes and tools of evidence-based practice can help nurses respond to these challenges (Prevost, 2014, p. 20). Kearney-Nunnery (2012) posits that involvement in research in any form adds to our knowledge base, enhances our practice, promotes improved…
Introduction This practical consisted of using a microscope on two different types of samples, human hair and Lily pollen to acquire the basics of using a microscope. Three different types of objective lenses were used (4x, 10X and 40X). Furthermore it gave an insight to particulate matter in the air. Q1. Table 1 below shows the diameter of a human hair under previous stated objective lenses Standard deviation is used in this case to quantify the amount dispersal or variation in the results.…
Management research will be considerably strengthened by effective collaboration between researchers and practicing managers. Such collaboration may well become essential if research projects are to make any real difference in the academics' understanding of or impact on management practice (Amabile et al., 2001). Management research entails significant challenges at the interface between the world of the academic researcher and the world of the business practitioner, challenges that may best be…
The rights based approach to researching children and young people is where they are involved actively in the research, not just as objects but as citizens with rights, (Fraser et al cited in, Open University, 2014), valued as an important source of knowledge about their own life and experiences. (Open University, 2014) However, as with all forms of research there are ethical and practical implications. There are some concerns surrounding the infringement of the child and young person’s rights…
