Intrinsic factor

children’s academic performance as influenced by family structure, functions, values and other psychological dimensions such as parent beliefs. Lumsden (2004), stated the role of parents and home environment in students’ academic performance as a main factor which shapes the initial constellation of students’ attitudes they develop toward learning. He stressed that “When children are raised in an environment that cultivates a sense of self-worth, competence, autonomy, and self-efficacy, they…

Epigenetic modifications/factors are heritable changes in gene activity and expression that occur without alteration in genomic DNA sequences. Epigenetic changes lead to the modulation of intrinsic gene activates, which are ultimately responsible for protein translation and cellular activities. In B cells, microRNAs are epigenetic factors that modulate the expression of Aicda, which is essential for Ig class switch DNA recombination (CSR) and somatic hypermutation (SHM), and Prdm1, which is…

anything more important that I could study” (qtd. in Tartakovsky). Each day when you come home from work, you go to bed feeling like you’ve really done something worthwhile and good, says Karl Hill, Psy.D. The type of satisfaction one gets from intrinsic motivators in their career is central to living a fulfilling life and it keeps work from feeling like…

The interviewee that I have for my interview regarding motivation is twenty-one-year-old Yamia Denny. Although her birth name is Yamia, she prefers to be called Mia. She is single, never married and does not have any children. Mia is of African American descent and resides in the Overbrook neighborhood of West Philadelphia. Currently, she works in the gift shop at The Franklin Institute on some weekdays but mostly during the weekends. During her days off from work she attends classes at The…

paper will outline my philosophy I plan to adopt once I reach my goal of being in the classroom with those same future minds. My philosophy I am looking to develop in order to one day integrate in my future classroom consists of the encouragement of intrinsic motivation, the development of a diverse learning environment with different learning styles, as well as allowing students to engage more and fostering a stronger…

Morality and justice are among the most important philosophical constructs that have continued to influence thinking, as well as approach to contemporary issues. Different philosophers have studied justice through definition, application in society, and the associated arguments. Socrates, for instance, argued that people prefer justice intrinsically because it has better promises and consequences than injustice. The Ring of Gyges is a critical review and challenge of Socrates’ version of…

what he thought rightfully belonged to him leaves her with no alternative (Okpranta, 2013). This paper reveals how language, characterization, patriarchy and hegemony enforce the objectification of women in Wahala, using intrinsic and feminist literary lenses. The use of the intrinsic literary lens exposes language as a very effective tool used to objectify women. Dale…

Molecular weight and Intrinsic viscosity The molecular weight average and intrinsic viscosity [η] of BSG and its fraction was summarized in Table 3. The Huggins and Kraemer plots of BSG and its fractions were exhibited in Fig. 1. As expected, PER-BSG and SUPER-BSG showed the highest and lowest MW, respectively…

different options one has in front of her or him, when she or he is seeking the best route to retard the aging process. As scientists say, there are two types of aging. One is called "intrinsic" and the other "extrinsic". First, the "intrinsic" type. As its name suggests, this type of aging is caused by internal factors, i.e. from the genes we inherit. It is a continuous process that normally begins in our mid-20s. In a nutshell, what happens during this process is…

of a reward that is separate from the act itself. The most common example is financial payment for services rendered. Research often concludes that intrinsic motivation is much more useful for motivating creativity and innovation than extrinsic motivation. In fact some authors (Amabile, 1997; Fernandez and Moldogaziev, 2012) suggest that extrinsic motivation, especially in the form of rewards for short-term performance, can result in a narrower view of the task and can cause employees to avoid…
