The first step is to select a concept. The authors selected the concept of intuition because there are not much research and study about it despite being discussed widely in nursing field. They also determined the importance of…

kinds of people as Pleb. They tend to do no more thinking and absorb what is before them as the truth (Keates). Use of the game where they would keep on guessing which shadow would come next is a representation of individuals who think that their empirical knowledge is the truth. The one they call their master is nothing but a fool because what he thinks is the truth is not anything close to the truth.

founded on findings from either perceptions of experienced athletic trainers or other helping professions, or both (Pitney, 2010). Only a few authors have conducted empirical examination of the coping responses and the sources of stress experienced by athletic trainers (Mazerolle, Monsma, Dixon, and Mensch, 2012).

income inequality. The authors are keen to do this research, as no research in this domain was attempted before. They focus on various channels (education, GSP/capita, income) through which corruption may affect income inequality. They undertake an empirical research where the Gini coefficient is a dependent variable and channels of corruption act as the independent variables. They include the dummy variables as well (expenditure, net income and spending unit). They estimate this model using the…

This study was tried to discover and investigate the relationship between teachers’ resilience and…
