Coherence

Neuroscience is a complicated field, yet enlightening. So, what do we see? First, higher frontal alpha 1 coherence. Second, activation of the default mode network (DMN). Third, a lower breath rate. Lastly, all those distinguishing characteristics “are seen within the first minute of Transcendental Meditation practice” (Travis, 2018). During Transcendental Meditation practice alpha 1 coherence is higher in the frontal and parietal areas, which shows interhemispheric communication. Furthermore,…

A teachers’ values, perceptions, and the style one may teach their future classroom can all be influenced by the educators in teacher programs. In “Multicultural Teacher Education: Examining the Perceptions, Practices, and Coherence in One Teacher Preparation Program,” professors Lori Czop Assaf, Ruben Garza, and Jennifer Battle at Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas in the College of Education noted how practices to incorporate multicultural ways in the program can…

Disch, Johnson, Mitchell, Sullivan & Warren, 2007). Therefore, the main purpose of this paper is to elaborate the research article, Animal-Assisted Activity among Patients with Cancer: Effects on Mood, Fatigue, Self-Perceived Health and Sense of Coherence in relation to QSEN in creating a work environment that is based on patient centered and research based.…

rationality by Fisher. Rationality is based upon two aspects: fidelity and coherence (Millar & Heath, 2003). By definition, coherence is the extent to which a narrative makes sense structurally. Is the tale consistent with an adequate amount of detail, dependable characters, and free of any big astonishment? Judging coherence is a skill that is learnt and as one gains experience so does he improve upon the skill. Narrative coherence questions or tests the rationality of the story. Often,…

The heart is considered as the center of wisdom, passion, and emotions by many a people. This emanates from the fact that people report experiencing emotional states and the feeling love in the area of the heart. However, these feelings have been conventionally attributed to the brain. Recent studies have disputed this fact with physiological mechanisms being explored to ascertain how the heart communicates with the brain and as such influence the health, emotions, perceptions, and processing of…

Ordering these stories by degree of narrative coherence, DeeDee’s tale is clearly the most complete, leaving very few gaps and temporal backtracking. Faith’s account is second, containing several instances of jumping forward and back on the narrative timeline, yet incorporating a detailed recollection of each part of the story. Jonathan’s tale shows the least coherence with noticeable disordering of events, long pauses, unfinished sentences, stopping to correct…

To understand one day that everything you held truth is not what you believed it was, can be frightening. Through one’s lifetime everyone gathers various knowledge, without doubting the nature of knowledge and things surrounding them. How many people in reality doubt their surroundings or even themselves? It is one of question to ask oneself, as to whether what one sees does exist in the exactly same shape and form as our eyes perceive it. We cannot always trust our senses to learn the truth and…

equilibrium is a method in which an individual works back and forth among their considered judgements, principles, and theoretical considerations about broad or specific cases, revising these elements when necessary in order to achieve coherence among them. Coherence is achieved when an individual’s beliefs are consistent to, and provide support for, one another. An optimal reflective equilibrium occurs when said judgements, principles, and considerations are coherent to the point that further…

Participants in both the experimental and control groups were 131 and 130 respectively, from the east part of Tehran, using randomized sampling. The Empowerment-Educational Intervention (EEI) was based on Freire‘s model which applied the sense of coherence, resilience,…

Among the many theories discussed, the Correspondence Theory and Coherent Theory cause quite a bit of controversy. When it comes to challenging people’s knowledge and beliefs, it can be a slippery slope that may or may not end with a satisfying conclusion. Everyone has a system in which they determine whether something is “true” or not, and these two theories are the most commonly used when it comes to making these determinations. “Truth is exact correspondence with reality” (Yogananda, n.d.)…
