Article 1: Some Determinative Factors for Teachers’ Job Motivation Step 1: Identify the question: As it pertains to the teacher-learning environment, what are the potential factors that contribute to teachers’ job motivation? Step 2: Choose a sample or samples of analysis: 201 Romanian teachers from across all educational levels were selected to complete the three qualitative questionnaires (DM, SP, and MM). 161 females and 40 males were graded on a seven-point Likert scale. Seniority in…

Dallas County, TX, the county hit hardest with WNV incidence in the 2012 outbreak, witnessed the greatest increase in WNV infections of any urban area in the United States during the virus’s 2012 resurgence (7). The incidence rate of WNV in Dallas County in 2012 was 7.30 per 100,00 residents– a total of 398 cases reported (7, 10). In this paper, my study area and year are Dallas County, Texas in 2012. Dallas County, Texas had 167 positive mosquito pools, no avian positive cases, 3 equine cases…

According to the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee as of 2012, only 14 percent of engineers of women (Casey) but yet women in America as of 2016 are 50.6 percent of the united states population (Countrymeters). Ideally in every field the male to female ratio should represent the population of the area but yet there is a 36.6 percent difference between the ratios of women in the population and women in engineering. That means there should be about 732,000 more women in engineering (NSPE).…

Edwin Arlington Robinson’s poem, “Richard Cory,” is brimming with irony. The brilliant use of situational irony takes the seemingly perfect life of Richard Cory and surprises us all once we reach the last line of Robinson’s poem. In fact, this poem seems eerily similar to Robin Williams’ situation. Richard Cory and Robin Williams both appeared to have their lives together; both rich, always smiling and making other happy, and were both held to higher standards. However, much like Richard Cory,…

In this experiment, the two sets of data obtained from the same subjects were analyzed. First, the JNDs from the four subjects was pooled together and a repeated measures ANOVA analysis was performed. Then, Weber’s fractoin (JND/line length) was applied to the original data to compute the weber fraction and the same analysis test were performed. For this study, we were specifically interested on the data yielded from the Test of Within-Subjects Contrast and Effects and an ANOVA performed from…

The purpose of the study, A Psychological Exploration of Engagement in Geek Culture, was to identify and understand why people participate in geek culture. Geek culture is defined as a subculture of enthusiasts that are interested in “obscure” media such as anime, sci-fi, and videogames. However, there are many faucets of the culture and it has become increasingly appealing to mainstream audiences, causing a greater shift in active engagement. Despite geek interests once being marginalized,…

Animal deaths, especially from anthropogenic causes, are valuable indicators of ecological and conservation problems that span a particular population (Collins 2011). Deer mortalities are no exception to this rule of thumb, as deer-vehicle collisions (DVCs) are a growing problem in the US and reflect the displacement of deer populations. Over 1 million DVCs occur in the US annually and result in the loss of human life, human injury, and considerable financial costs resulting from the vehicle…

Because the individual differences of slope are found the non-significant, the planned t tests are not applied to examine the subsets of within group differences. On the other hand, the group difference of mean slope was examined for an overall identification of slope change. The group differences of slope are found t= 13.66, p< .01. The mean slope increased from pretest to posttest M1 = .54 to M2 = .60, but not statistically significant. As shown in Figure 3, children in the blocks-group…

What- For over a century, an ethnographic method known as ‘participant observation’ has been an essential tool utilised in various anthropological and sociological disciplines in order to collect important qualitative research about people, their activities, and their cultures. (Kawulich, B 2005) Participant observation enables a researcher to learn about the studied culture and its associated activities in a natural setting, through the acts of observing and participating in these activities.…

A total of four hypotheses were examined using the following variables: feelings of tension and anxiety before and after watching a video in which a news story covered a student going to a college campus with the intent of harming people, perceived threat while watching the video, perceived threat while watching similar news coverages, the number of hours a day spent consuming news, and participant gender. First, to test the hypothesis that feelings of tension and anxiety will be higher after…
