of young adults after hospitalization of CVA (cerebrovascular accident) (Victoria et al.). Any form of music intervention contributes to a more rapid recovery after strokes such as CVA, in which the incorporation of music leads to a more positive effect on the upper limbs in comparison to regular therapy without music intervention. Receptive music therapy contributes to a more speedy and precision recovery with a more smooth movement in limbs with patients who have suffered…

bystanders of cyberbullying are more likely to intervene indirectly than directly. These researchers executed a three-day experiment where they showed participants many incidents of cyberbullying. The primary purpose of the study was to explore the effects of the design of website interface on bystander intervention through the use of a custom social media website called EatSnap.Love. The participants of the experiment were given different information regarding viewing notifications and…
