The purpose of this study is to measure the differences between age in relation to risk-taking/impulsiveness and reaction time. The reason being, we are interested in figuring out whether or not younger adults are more prone to risk-taking and impulsiveness than the older adults are. Risk taking is an important form of human behavior that has been the subject of numerous investigations, scholarly analyses, and policy debates (Byrnes, 1998; Slovic, Lichtenstein, & Fischhoff, 1998). Risk-taking…

the sailor with the most or least points, depending on the scoring methods, after all events have taken place. Each sailor in this study has a mean performance score, between 10 and 100, denoted as μ from now on. Each sailor also has a different standard deviation, a measure of consistency between 0 and 18, denoted by σ from now on. I will call the scoring methods as followed: Method 1 - Calculating the sum of the sailors finishing positions in an event with the lowest score being best. Method…

I write to you today as an American citizen who is concerned with the future of this nation and the world. I am not a Democrat, a tree-hugger, or a person belonging to any other group or stereotype you may expect me to belong to. I am a Republican and a steadfast Republican at that.

Millennials, my generation, are being handed issues that are hundreds of…

It is well known that the temperature that a plant is grown in greatly affects the manner in which that plant grows. If the conditions are too extreme for a plant, then that plant cannot be as productive as other members of its species grown at less extreme temperatures. Such is the case of the pepper or tomato plant; if temperatures are too high for these plants, then the pollen these plants produce becomes inviable and these plants cannot successfully reproduce (Environmental Factors That……

While there has been an increase in the use of virtual manipulatives. Their concrete counterpart’s haven been at the head of mathematics education for decades. The use of concrete manipulatives has long been applauded as a quality instructional tool. “Students’ mental images and abstract ideas are based on their experiences. Hence, students who see and manipulate a variety of objects have clearer mental images and can represent abstract ideas more completely than those whose experiences are…

The mean maladaptive perfectionism scores are average and the low standard deviation shows that there was little variation between student’s maladaptive perfectionism scores. A correlation coefficient was calculated between procrastination and adaptive perfectionism scores (r (523) = -.14, p < .001). A significant negative…

This federal law aims at regulating air emissions from stationary sources such as industries and mobile sources such as vehicles. It was established to authorize the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to establish National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) that protects the public health through regulation of emissions that have a hazardous effect on air (Sueyoshi & Goto, 2010). The CAA was established in 1963 after several deaths were experienced in 1948 and 1952 due to air pollution. It…

Students were asked to create a dog pen with the biggest area. They had to make sure that they would have enough fencing material to cover a perimeter of 40 yards. With these 40 yards, students were asked to figure out the largest area for the dog to play in its pen. First, I know that we have 40 yards of fencing material. Our equation to finding out the perimeter of the the rectangle is 2W+2L=40. I also know that the formula for finding out the area is LW=A.The L variable stands for length and…
