1. Introduction Robert Kane believes libertarians, before him, have not done an adequate job of explaining how their view of free will can be reconciled with modern scientific views about human beings and the cosmos. As a result, this causes Kane to address the conflict between free will and its compatibility with modern scientific views. Kane asks the two following questions. First, can a libertarian view of free will requiring ultimate responsibility be made intelligible without appealing to…

Introduction: A conceptual model is a representation of concepts which are used to help people know, understand or simulate a subject represents. Moreover, a model is used to create the various hypothesis which can be used to test in the laboratory study or which can be utilized for explaining in a case study. The goal of this assignment is to explore three models of evidence-based practice (EBP) that may interest the authors and give an explanation. Although several models are used in research…

Theoretical Orientation. Having a theoretical orientation stems from having a theory of change that one believes works. Before a theory is formulated, it is first tested and see if hypothetically it works for the purpose for which it is derived. I have seen that the Adlerian as well as the Reality Theories based on my PACE theory of change works and on these have I had my theoretical orientation founded. The Adlerian theory The Adlerian psychology places its emphasis on a person’s ability to…

While science aims to explain particular events and generalizations with the laws of nature, religion aims to explain the same things without being confined to the laws of nature. Religion seeks supernatural explanations to explain the phenomena that science cannot including global why questions, necessary beings, and why the laws of nature are so simple. The conversation between religion and science is often seen as a conflicting debate but Instead of dismissing science and religion as…

causing different philosophers and theologians to research solutions to this question. Philosophers believe that one of the four main theories could explain the problem of identity. Illusion, body, soul, and memory comprise the four theories used to describe identity. These different theories are useful because people have different ideas about identity. Based on which theory an individual chooses to believe…

let students get zeros for not doing it. I learn that if you wanna pass Mr.Pj’s science class you must be able to work with other students, and have great teamwork capabilities. Most of the activities done in this class will involve teammates or group members. We have to learn about how we can contribute to a team and how to depend and trust other members to study their topic and do the work assigned to them. After studying in Mr.Pj’s class all of us improved on working together. I guess you…

While the modern vision of scientific civilization, developed by Sir Francis Bacon in 17th century England, and the ways science is actually practiced in the world today both pursue objective truth, the modern vision and today’s scientific practices differ in their methods of pursuing truth. The modern vision and the ways science is actually practiced today both pursue objective truth in order to benefit humanity. The modern vision of science pursued truth using experience, which differed from…

Elisabeth Lloyd is a philosophical author, who wrote “Feminism as a Method: What Scientists Get That Philosophers Don’t”. In her book, Lloyd discusses the impact that the role feminism, the philosophy about women, has in scientific research. Lloyd’s position is that feminism can be and should be a significant key and role in making scientific research objective and rigorous. Going along these lines, this means that the influence of feminism on scientific methods is an example about how…

“Science aims to give us, in its theories, a literally true story of what the world is like.”1 This is not a statement that he would necessarily disagree with in a vague sense, but the specifics of what science is actually aiming to explain and the power that theories actually hold is what he refines. The accepted definition of scientific realism, outside of Van Fraassen’s…

In this paper, I will discuss the Problem of Induction and the Principle of Uniformity of Nature’s solution (PUN), proposed by David Hume. Another element of this paper will explore Nelson Goodman’s New Riddle of Induction that derives from Hume’s hypothesis. In addition to that, I will also recount why PUN is insufficient/problematic to justify induction according to Goodman, along with a couple examples of premises that will better demonstrate the issue. There are two types of reasoning –…
