As humans, we spend a lot of deal of time communicating with one another which means that we are social animals. As social animals, we fall prey to social influence which is defined as the influence of one individual on another’s feelings, beliefs, and behavior (Aronson, 2012). An example of such influence is conformity which will be the focus of this study. Conformity is the re-adjustment of one’s own behavior and /or attitude due to an imagined or real pressure from an individual or group of…

Recently, the West has become the epicentre of terrorism. Terrorists across time have encountered shifting responses to their activities, with some opponents negotiating, while others using their preponderance of military advances to contest them. Evidently, the biggest terrorist threat today derives from the East, which is the focus of my paper. The re-emergence of extremist right-wing ideologies after its condemnation since WWII, traces back to the 1970s Western oil crises blamed on left-wing…

Introduction This experiment was conducted to measure the change in the Planarian’s speed according to different light frequencies. This experiment is relevant to a Planarian’s natural life as Planaria live in many different environments, and under several light variations. Planaria are found in both salt and fresh water, as well as amidst logs, soil, and a variety of plants (Conservation Commission of Missouri, 2015). This immense variety of environments corresponds with a variety of light…

There is little consensus in the literature on what factors put refugee children at risk for low academic achievement. Although some studies point to possible influences, few are replicated or supported by the majority of research. Risk factors that have been found to be significant in at least one study include exposure to violence (Berthold, 2000; Thompson & Massat, 2005), language barriers (Mace et al., 2014; Stermac et al., 2012), ethnic differences (Rousseau et al., 1996), school…

Hume agrees that we cannot connect our perceptions to any external objects (Hume XII:I) and goes on to argue “For here is the chief and most confounding objection to excessive scepticism, that no durable good can ever result from it” (Hume XII:II) that this kind of questioning, what he refers to as excessive scepticism, does nothing for us. Hume argues that this questioning is not something that…

In the reading, Phil Tiemeyer, gives a unique spin off of the telltale story of the infamous Gaëton Dugas. A man who could arguably be called the Hitler of the AIDS epidemic. In fact, not only does Tiemeyer say that the things people have learned about Mr. Dugas was a fabricated myth, but he also defends Dugas, by saying he could not have even been patient zero. An audacious claim to make about the villain of the late 20th century, however, surprisingly Tiemeyer does not speak without compelling…

Overall, I rate this article as a 4 out of 5. It is very well organized, presents samples and comparisons and is very well written. The only thing, I would change in this article would be the organization of the topics. For Example, The hypotheses, methods and procedures were placed at the end with the results. I believe the hypotheses, methods, and procedures would have been more effective placed at the beginning of the article before the presentation of the data that is broken up into sections…
