Specifically, Long questions the motives of libertarian free market advocates of simultaneously legitimizing plutocratic corporations. He begins by pointing out that a completely free market and big business are at odds, utilizing many examples of government intervention propping up corporations and their businesses…

People experience many forms of stress such as emotional, psychological, and physical stress. Knowing which coping style is better could possibly help people deal with stress in a way that…

Milton Friedman, a conservative economist that was most popular in the later part of the twentieth century, wrote many books and studies on the free market. In his piece, “Free to Choose,” Friedman outlined that the free market should be protected to create more growth for society. Though I agree that Friedman makes some excellent points, I believe that his approach to creating freedom is not worth the price of inequality that comes with it. The major dilemma being discussed in this article is…

The aim of this assignment is to discuss how nature and nurture applies to attachment by applying the principles of behaviourism. An attachment is an enduring, two-way, emotional tie to a specific other person usually between a parent and a child which develops in set stages within a fairly rigid timescale (Lawton, et al, 2011. p. 39). Whereas behaviourism is a belief that behaviours can be measured, trained and changed (Cherry, 2010). In psychology, there are two aspects that determine people…

The influence of the Greeks has greatly impacted the world. Present day humans still use the same ideas the Greeks had during their time. America was greatly inspired to incorporate their existence into our government, buildings, literature, and even thinking! Some of the biggest ideas the United States used from the Greeks are the city-states, the famous Apology, and the great Parthenon. It is amazing that a civilization impacted so many and ended around 338 B.C.E. I will explain how ancient…

A Three Second Memory? There is a common belief that fish only have a three second memory and that they cannot be trained to compete tricks, and this may be caused by the short lifespan of some species of fish, making testing for long term memory difficult (Reebs, 2008, p.1). Moreover, many assume that goldfish do not have a memory since goldfish always seem like they are hungry, since they are always seen foraging for food. However, as a long time goldfish owner, I have witnessed my goldfish…

were very peculiar because they seemed normal to the naked eye. But after analyzing it more closely we saw a few different types of conditions being present. The types of condition that were perceived were classical conditioning, operant conditioning and observational learning. To start off, classical conditioning is “A type of learning in which a neutral stimulus acquires the ability to evoke a response that was originally evoked by another stimulus.” To put in simple terms, if Becky were to go…

Newton's three laws of motion consist of information about gravity, force and acceleration. The law’s where written by Newton in 1666. Each law explains a different theory about how gravity works. The first law talks about why objects stay in motion or rest unless an unbalanced force is acted upon that object. The next law explains how force equals acceleration. The third law talks about how if any action is created there is a equal and opposite reaction that appears. Each one of these laws…

The city of Athens was the cultural hub of the Greek Empire. During the fourth, fifth and sixth century b.c., philosophy, mathematics and sciences, religion and arts were all at the heart of the revolution. Prominent philosophers had questioned the truth, divinity, human nature, harmony and the goods and evils of the world, causing other to wonder what the world really was. The mathematicians and scientists provided answers to the theories and great questions asked. Their Gods and Goddesses was…

Hall (1966) describes personal space as the “small protective sphere or bubble that an organism maintains between itself and others” (Hall 1996: p112). In the book ‘The Silent Language’, Hall proposed that while animals use their urine and physical posturing to mark their territory, humans do something similar using our personal space. The proxemics theory suggests that the distance between individuals help to control the amount of sensory information exchanged and thus, helping to control the…
