we endured while growing up. An unaccustomed society that’s unlike ours values interdependence, rather, our inherent society that encourages independence. We can see the arising conflictions when the two cultures meet. African culture portrays the concept of dependence, in ways of showing unified…
is bald and someone who is not with a sharp borderline between the two, we believe this is the wrong way to think about it. What we argue is that there is a not one distinct definition for someone who is bald and who is not. The concept of being bald is just like the concept of a heap. A ‘heap’ is defined as a collection of things piled up haphazardly. While this definition makes sense, having no qualitative value to ‘heap’ allows for vagueness in definition between individuals. Just like a…
When analyzing concepts, determining the essential characteristics that make up a concept is a fundamental step. By establishing defining characteristics associated with a concept, one may have a greater understanding of it. If one fails to identify the proper attributes of a concept, than the results of the analysis may limit the ability to expand nursing theories (Walker, & Avant, 2011, p. 162). Distinguishing between types of cases will allow one to categorize concepts and understand how they…
While watching Esther Perel’s Ted Talk she discusses multiple important concepts to focus on while in a long-term relationship. The two ideas I found most interesting was the questions she posed along the lines of “What draws you most to your partner?” such as at their work, when they are far away etc. The second question she mentioned that I found interesting was “what shuts you off and turns you on?”. While watching this TED talk I actually thought about my own relationship. My current…

that would focus on someone or something involving a lock and a key while expressing an emotion. This project wasn’t a solo project, but instead involved working with one other person. The lock and key could be metaphoric or literal and from that concept we had to tell a story in twelve to fifteen shots. Our idea was to convey a young musician finding the right “key” on his guitar and “unlock” the excitement (which was our assigned emotion) inside of him. I believe the project turned out…
student might learn something about themselves they never knew about. It teach them to improve their flaws. It is a good thing for student to see a different angle of punishment. This concept is important because this would impact our judgement. Some people might judge something or someone without even knowing them. This concept tells them to stop and look at it a different way, and have an open mind to what it is. It also is asking them to go beyond the project, it is testing them if they can…
supporting the claim. (Huemer 47-57) René Descartes holds the opposite opinion, which he discusses in ‘Meditations One and Two.’ While there is validity to both sides of the argument, Huemer’s essay proves to be more reliable after dissecting Descartes’ concepts of existence. Huemer proposes that no one can know anything about the external world, or anything that exists outside of the mind. It is impossible to be certain of how many fingers one has, or if surrounding objects are real or solely…
out for me over the next couple of years. I have set before me a really demanding list of goals, and in order for me to achieve these goals I am going to have to systematically apply all of the psychological concepts that I have learned to my everyday life.

Achieving each of the aforementioned goals will help minimize my stress, and benefit me in ways that I…
