misrepresent science (Morling, 2014). Although Norton used many direct quotes throughout her article, she could have described the experiment’s design better. In this analysis, I will examine how accurate Norton articulates about this psychological report. Amelia Arria, Kimberly Caldeira, Brittamy Bugbee,Kathryn Vicent, and Kevin O’Grady researched the academic consequences of marijuana use during college. The researchers collected data of 1,117 first year students by eight annual assessments…

In The Republic, Plato coins the phrase “noble lie” in a fictional tale on which Socrates is telling of the origins of the social classes and where they came from. The noble lie, coined by…

exploded. “Mom, can I run over and grab another one?” The little creature asked. “That pink one, looks really pretty. It would fit my collection.” “Hurry up.

No! You can’t, that’s my wife! Please spare my family.” I…

An often debated question is that of what makes a good story. In the 1800s, Edgar Allan Poe created one list of rules that he thinks makes a good detective story. These include requirements such as "clues ... to allow the reader to solve the crime" and "a detective with strong intuitive skills" (Poe, "Rules for Detective Stories"). Two mystery tales that can be judged using these rules to determine which is better are Poe's own short story, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue," and a movie, The Bone…

a clever analogy that truly represents the horrors associated with the quality of life due to single parenting. A scene from the movie displays this when the child Samuel (played by Noah Wiseman) is screaming uncontrollably in the car as the mom, Amelia (played by Essie Davis) stops the car and breaks down, screaming. This example of a stressful situation in single parenting leads to the image of betrayal of single motherhood, as this scene plus many others within the movie display what society…

around and it got on my last nerve. My family was well off on money (I have no idea how) so I drove a black matte Jeep. Our house was three stories with a basement and my attic room. My mom would push me to have friends over and my dad would say “ Amelia, honey, Harper can do whatever she wants.” My dad was awesome. He would always cook the best dinners and watch the newest movies with us. He was the opposite of mom. She always pushed me to be a social butterfly.…
