Summers et al (1988) affirmed that “in general, cohesion promotes productivity.” Yet, out of all the characteristics considered to make a group, cohesion is perhaps the most debatable as to its relationship with effectiveness, a motor for productivity and group success.

ethnic or race group. Others have clashing beliefs. Actors should not play someone from a different ethnic or race group because they are emphasizing racial hierarchy, mocking them, and concluding that the race that they actually are is the norm. Some people believe in allowing actors of one ethnic group to play characters of another race or ethnic group. Employment security for caucasian actors was one apparent cause for why these depictions succeeded on screen and in theater life. Robert B.…

1. A. One instance of how minority group to dominant group’s response pattern of acceptance was portrayed was when the cops pulled Terrence Howards and his TV wife over and one of the cops began to molest his wife. The couple had done nothing wrong, but the cop pulled them over anyhow because “they are up to something”. When he threatens to arrest the couple, and begins to “search” the wife for weapons he asks Howard what we can do about the situation. He can either apologize for his and his…

Health care disparities within minority groups are a significant problem in the United States and have drastic effects on the individuals that compose the minority. Health care disparities are defined as “differences in access to or availability of facilities and services” (HSRIC, 2015). Race and equality have been an ongoing issue in the United States, but there has been improvement over many years. Although equality has improved in several areas, health care is still an issue. Many people…

about ways to behave" (Muskat, Winter 2016). Our group norms were to exercise confidentiality; to follow the order of participation, where the leaders spoke during the task group meetings unless someone else was assigned to do so; and to be respectful of other members in the group by remaining professional throughout the session. In following the order of participation; we had to keep in mind that, “whenever people are together in face-to-face groups, they are communicating. Even if they are not…

It has taken a considerable amount of time to get to the diverse point that the world’s society is at now, with more acknowledgment, acceptance and discussion around diversity. However, one can question is what ascribes and defines this identity that we acknowledge as being diversity. It can…

Van Krieken et al. refer to identity as “who people think they are and also how we see others” (2010, p.255). The term ‘Aboriginal’ was originally used by the British colonists, to identify the diverse tribal groups of Indigenous peoples inhabiting the Australian continent. Although the term was originally used to disempower the Indigenous peoples by way of categorisation to fit into the colonialist view, it has remained today as part of the nations legal definition and also as a term many…

the formation of ester groups through the reaction between carboxylic acid groups of PAA oligomers and silanol groups of silica moieties 12. Besides, in SiO2/PAA hybrids, the O-H bands were broadened with the increase of silica content from 30 to 40 and 40 wt % and gradually shifted from 3100 cm-1 to 3150 cm-1, respectively (Figure 2). These observations may be the consequence of the strong hetero-associated hydrogen bonds…
