For our presentation our group focused on the supposed acne clearing medication Proactiv. I chose this product specifically because it was one of if not the only one named that didn't require a prescription or have age limitations attached to it, therefore many consider it a fairly innocuous product. Our advertisement was laid out in a very deliberate way, showing senior photos of fresh faced, good looking high schoolers. As this was our target audience we took advantage of the visibility of…

The two trends relating to coming out for gay teens is that of being left by family and friends and that of being bullied by peers, yet “The Internet also has eased isolation for gay teens, offering a place for socializing and support, says Stephanie Sanders of the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction in Bloomington, Ind.” (Elias, 2007) Before the internet, gay teens had to make big decisions on who to tell and when to tell them due to fear of being isolated, yet…

Sex, a controversial, questionable, and even explicit topic causes discomfort and even distress for individuals, specifically the individuals who tend to shield it out of their life. This component of a relationship is important, yet one must understand themselves, as well as their sexuality to enjoy it. The blog I will focus on throughout this essay is Save Your Sex Life.

Though likely meant to be interpreted playfully, the impact these examples have on the American people, when paired with…

Ellie can have an easier time remembering the different members names, and them remembering hers especially if they call role of the members of the club. Because of Schachter's two-factor theory we know that Ellie will be more likely to be noticed if she is friendly to her peers because…

Humans tend to hold on to their preconceived notions and biases when making decisions or thinking about the outcome of situations. They think in terms of “I have seen/ heard X happen, so Y is most likely the answer.” This is part of human nature and is not necessarily a negative thing as it has helped humans survive. However, it can lead people to be myopic in certain situations. People will look for information that supports their current beliefs and ignore evidence that discredits or disproves…
