When bystanders were present but confined behind a barrier, children helped just as often as they did when they were alone (Plötner et al., 2015). Thus, it was not just the presence of bystanders that caused the effect. The effect was motivated by the diffusion of responsibility, which existed in the bystander condition (Plötner et al., 2015). In the alone and bystander-unavailable conditions, children recognized that they were responsible to help. However, in the bystander…

For example, alcohol has many of the same side effects of marijuana. Alcohol buffers the central nervous system and is known to kill brain cells. A joint of marijuana is known to produce more tar than a cigarette, but on the average marijuana users do not consume enough marijuana to surpass the tar build up of a person who smokes a pack of cigarettes a day. June Crown and W.D.M. Paton state that "Further, one should realize that different cannabis smokers select different levels of intoxication"…

Ever since first human appeared on the earth, humans have worked wonders such as Peru’s Machu Picchu, China’s Great Wall and even Roman Empire. However, despite all the those achievements that humans accomplished, it would be surprising to hear that history of study of management has been only a century long. With the 19th century’s development of heavy and chemical industry, industries had expended into larger scales that resulted modern ages’ complex industry style. Fredrick Winslow Taylor…

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful girl named Cinderella who lived with her wicked stepmother and two cruel stepsisters. Jealous of Cinderella’s beauty, they forced her to dress in rags and put her in charge of all the housework. She suffers silently until one night her fairy godmother helps her get to the royal ball.

reconstructed. One very important part of the story that had to be changed was the part where the bird pecked out the sisters part (Thorpe, 9). Disney definitely didn’t want children thinking birds would one day cause them to go blind! The overall effect of the original version was to create scenes that all ages could relate to. The older crowd knew that birds would never peck out their sister’s eyeballs for being mean. But the children who didn’t know that did learn that there’s consequences…
