The target question is the original one we have to answer when faced with a difficult situation. Then, the heuristic question is constructed by system 2 to cope with this situation, it is a much simpler, easier one to answer. To put it simple, heuristic is a simple process which helps achieve sufficient, though imperfect, solutions to difficult answers. System 1 often takes this route when confronted with a difficult target question, if an easier heuristic one quickly comes to mind. Kahneman…

Style Matters Inventory & Reflection Paper To fulfill the requirements for this course we had to take a style matters inventory on my conflict style. After analyzing my conflict style, I was surprised by the fact that it was accurate in some aspects. Although there was some accuracy, there were areas that were not accurate. Even though there were some inaccuracies, I was impressed with the results. I do not think that there is a survey that would be precise because there are many variables…

At the beginning stage of the study, the participants were asked to fill in the self-esteem questionnaire adapted from Coopersmith’s scale (1967) revised by the Psychometrics Center including 58 yes/no statements. In this questionnaire, in order to verify the responses provided by the learners, eight items that were determined by the developer of the questionnaire in its rating Key, were considered to check the honesty of the participants and actually acted as a lying poll. That is, if students…

In the present chapter, initially the concept of dynamic assessment and different theories underlying this concept will be discussed. Following that different approaches to DA will be elaborated on drawing on the available literature. Phrasal verbs as an important variable in the current study will also be discussed. The chapter concludes with a report of the previous studies carried out pertaining to the variables of the study. 2.1. Dynamic Assessment DA has been developed as an alternative to…

outwеighеd by its advantagеs as it was a vеry usеful invеntion for its timе.

While exploring the relationship between our shared knowledge and our individual knowledge, we see that there is an influence from both directions. Shared knowledge, in this context, is the knowledge belonging to a particular group of people who may be collaboratively working together, either in a separate ‘space and time’ or different places. On the other hand, personal knowledge can be interpreted as knowledge resulting from the influence of my own individual perspective, which includes…

necessary information and the availability of recourses (time, money and participants). It is important to take into account that two types of reaches are just two different philosophies, however, they are not contrary. Moreover, both methods can be used in mixed-methods researches. This type of approach becomes more and more popular nowadays. Characteristics of quantitative and qualitative research Quantitative Qualitative Objective Subjective Research question: How many? Strength of…

efficiency; the parametric approach using econometric techniques, and the non-parametric approach utilising the linear programming method. Both approaches differ mainly in how they handle the random error and the assumptions made on the shape of the efficient frontier. However, each of the techniques has its own strengths and weaknesses. The most widely employed parametric methods are stochastic frontier approach (SFA), thick frontier approach (TFA) and distribution-free approach (DFA). On the…

singability. Lastly, I will analyze the translations according to Johan Franzon’s three aspects of music translation, and I will analyze whether there has been used re-creation, hook-translation or reverent translation in the translations and which method in mainly used. 4.1 Rhythm In this section I will be analyzing how the translated song lyrics have preserved the rhythm of the original song. The main analysis is done by using syllable count. Syllable is a part of…
