Generalization

Darwin introduced pollination biology with the evolutionary theory, which has created a robust concern in the adaptive importance of floral traits in regards to pollinators. This idea of specialization and generalization of plants has called for the question of expectations that pollination syndromes reflect and predict convergent selection pressures on floral traits. It is this ecological significance that drives the need for experiment and literature explanations…

Leopard Man In his article, “The Sociology of Leopard Man,” Logan Feys believes that people that do not conform to society are freaks. Feys supports his belief through the use of pathos. Feys purpose is to satirize people who do not conform, in order to convince the audience that non-conformist are “freaks,” Fey uses pessimism with his intended audience. While I generally agree with Logan Fey’s statement about individuality, I found some of his positions to be quite extreme. It is this very…

be taken in small steps. As learned in class, goals are better achieved in smaller, specific sub-goals. Preventing social injustice begins with raising children to respect others entirely. Ideally, education of minority culture and removal of generalizations teaches children to appreciate the diversity and uniqueness everyone has to offer. In a perfect world, people would recognize different as interesting and not as a threat. Rather than generalizing minority cultures, society would focus on…

This client exhibits a nervous habit of hair pulling from various part of his body, also known as trichotillomania. According to Spiegler (2015) and O'Donohue and Fisher (2009), the most effective treatment approach for this is habit reversal training. As a treatment, habit reversal training consists of three main components, which are awareness training, competing response training, and reinforcement. Additionally, a forth component, relaxation training, is also important for the client to use…

backwards India by recording her depictions in comparison to the west. The disturbance in India, crowds of people, the extreme warmth and dirt seemed persistent and all encompassing to her. Macdonald for the most part does not move past specific generalizations and I feel that overall she has a hidden western motivation. McDonald still holds an orientalist perspective and we can see this by examining Holy cow’s negative depiction of India through her consistent reference of poor living…

writing “The Trouble with Geniuses Part 1 and 2” of his book Outliers is to present the idea that success is determined by more than just natural talent and to argue against the effectiveness of IQ tests in determining Success. Gladwell’s use of generalizations and lack of representative examples make his arguments weak. Furthermore, his use of tone is casual, his ideas are entertaining, insightful, and inquisitive and he engages the reader by using rhetorical questions. Gladwell’s full…

In Lifeboat Ethics: the Case against Helping the Poor, Garret Hardin attempts to persuade people that rich countries should not help the poor countries and resource sharing is detrimental. Also, people should restricted immigration policy as it speeds up the destruction of the environment. However, Hardin’s article is mostly his opinions inexactly supported by some numerical information. Moreover, he moves from one idea to another quickly instead of going into depth and insight. Therefore,…

results generalized to larger populations. In this case, the internal validity and construct of other portions of the test will allow for larger generalizations to be made. For example, one can state that based on our results, if a person experiences lack of knowledge in a subject he/she will have a larger probability of test anxiety. Another generalization that can be made based on the test validity is that if a correlation exists between study time and test anxiety. There are large amounts of…

Christianity in Turkey, Middle East and Africa is not the result of “proper reading of the Koran”. The Pope is the perfect candidate for magical thinking and idiot compassion. And notice the little hate speech riff: “avoid hateful generalizations”. Pope Francis, do you mean generalizations such as conclusions that result from reading the Koran, the Sunna, the Sharia and a 1400 year history of the murder of all kinds of Kafirs (non-Muslims)? But, in his own way, Pope Francis is the leader of all…
