The article “Kinship and Nonrelative Foster Care: The Effect of Placement Type on a Child Well-Being” was writing by Sarah Font from the University of Wisconsin. This article can be found in the professional journal, Child Development, September/October 2014, volume 84, number 5, and pages 2074-2090. This article attempts to address differences in children who are removed from their parents and placed in kinship and nonrelative care by measuring achievements, behaviors and health. The article…

“consists of a caregiver omission or failures to provide for a child’s basic needs” (Font & Berger, 2014, P.537). The basic needs are food, water, shelter, and clothes. If a child is not being fed properly and given the right nutrients, it will delay their brain and bone growth. by not having a stable household and not receiving the nourishment they need the child can become “stressful and physically dangerous for children” (Font & Berger, 2014, p.…

essay, “Times Roman Font Announces Shortage of Periods”, author Steve Martin attempts to be funny by using sarcasm and irony. I did not find this essay to be particularly humorous at all. He starts of the story by stating, “Representatives of the popular Times Roman font, who recently announced a shortage of periods, have offered other substitutes” (1). That statement is what the whole rest of the essay is about and I am having a very hard time to find the humor in a story about a font running…

The time a subject took to respond to the Stroop Effect’s colour name and the font colour presented were the variables in this experiment. The variables were done no manipulation as well. There was a variance found in the time taken to read the congruent and incongruent sets. This can be viewed it is a very clear confirmation of the Stroop Effect. As shown in the Graph 3, the results from this experiment prove that the reaction time to read the congruent set was knowingly faster than the…

As college students, textbooks serve one of the most important jobs in understanding the material that the class is covering. However, sometimes students do not use their textbooks and only focus on the lecture to study. Using only the lectures makes the purchase of a textbook seem pointless and the lack of use of a textbook raises questions about the reasons for not using it. In the social problems class offered here at the University of Oklahoma, the textbook used is Social Problems written by…

Before almost every cigarette company twisted science to support its products and issued misleading health information in an attempt to reap a profit. There were various familiar instance of false advertising by Camel and Chesterfield to persuade the audience to smoke their cigarettes. Chesterfield was one of the most recognized brands of the early and mid-20th century which was originally produced by the Liggett & Myers Tobacco Company. One of the famous false advertising of Chesterfield was…

question arises, you need to be prepared to respond confidently with a good argument explaining why you should get the job. A great first step in preparing for this is to take a class that studies argumentation. I carefully picked my visuals, layout, font, and other aspects of my advertisement to persuade people to study argumentation which will lead them to the end goal of conquering an interview. The visuals I chose paint a clear picture of two possible outcomes of an interview done correctly…

However, not everything has to be the same font or the same size on the label. For other information, like advertising, or the brand name, I think a font that looks like actual handwriting would be the best idea. Looking online, the font found here appears to be a font that gives off an old-fashioned vibe that would be good for non-important information on the label. As that font would be used for things like brand name, and that type of thing, the font size would be much larger. 7. What…

These flyers for Rhonda Patterson’s speech about sex trafficking can be seen all over campus, and target all students and faculty in order to spread awareness of sex slavery. This is an extremely visually appealing and emotionally effective document, eliciting feelings of urgency and sympathy. This document’s success is largely attributable to the exemplary use of gestalts. The faces in the corners of the pages are fantastic examples of the Gestalt principle of proximity at work. The parts of…

familiarity. Typography is more than selecting fonts. It is the study of how humans read, how they perceive information, how they recognize words and how the brain processes the information. Yes, it is an art but it is has its roots in human cognition. Typography for websites to be viewed in mobile and desktop need not be same, in terms the fonts and layout for the website cannot be scaled down for a smaller screen like phone. It would make the fonts too tiny resulting in illegibility. UXPin…
