characterized to be people that are mentally ill and insane. Not only is this deceptive, but it lacks what is so unknown about psychopaths. They are people that walk the streets freely every day, they just acquire different characteristics. The David Hare psychopathy checklist shows that if one possesses a high score from this list because of the amount of traits that match the individual, they are diagnosed with a type of psychopathy. The unique blend of traits…
As stated before, there are counter arguments towards the effectiveness of treatment for psychopaths. One belief as to why treatment does not work for psychopaths is stated by the authors of this study, Harris and Rice (Harris & Rice, 2006). “They believe that the reason for their findings is that psychopaths are fundamentally different from other offenders and that there is nothing ‘wrong’ with them in the manner of a deficit or impairment that therapy can ‘fix’. Instead, they exhibit an…
Robert Hare is well known for his knowledge on psychopathy and he was the one who came up with a list of 20 traits which can be identified as psychopathic, some of which include: “pathological lying, manipulative, lack of remorse and guilt, early behaviour problems…
Everyone has flaws. Many, not just one, but many people have certain qualities, characteristics, or some traits that they may or may not be proud of. Yes, some of a persons qualities may be a little harder or more challenging to face than others but overall that is what totally completes a person, whether they choose to accept or decline it.

Saint Frances of Rome was born into a wealthy family in 1384. She was quiet, yet strong willed, which she inherited from her father. From eleven years old, she knew God was calling her to be a nun. Her and her father’s similar personalities started to clash and he said she was “too young to know what she wanted.” To keep her from becoming a nun, he promised a wealthy family that she would marry their son. She prayed to God that the marriage wouldn’t happen. She reluctantly gave in to the…
In one of the most often inhospitable environments, with 98% of the land covered in ice, winds ranging from 8 kilometers an hour to 64 kilometers an hour, fluctuating climates that potentially reach incredibly cold temperatures down to -89 degrees Celsius, continuous daylight during summer, and storms that arrive rapidly in which potentially cause incredibly contrasting weather patterns within relatively short distances, lives the Emperor Penguin. Consequently, the Emperor Penguin has many…
Introduction Emperor penguins huddle together to survive in the freezing Antarctic with mild temperatures under -70oC. (figure 1). When the huddling procedure is used, the heat is transferred between penguins and half the amount of energy is required survive. • The huddling process of penguins are classified as a population as they are one type of species working together in the same area. (Gordon,2013). These huddling processes are affected by both abiotic and biotic factors. Abiotic factors…

Julius Caesar with a Twist It was a very quiet day and the birds ceased to fly. The sun was beaming and the sky was clear. There was an odd sense and feeling lingering through the air and on the faces of the passing town people. Not one normal town person was aware that there were people constructing a plan regarding the death of Caesar, the most beloved person. The city was filled with both the rich and the poor. However, one quiet citizen stood out to many. Lius, a poor, old man…
The main summation of the six articles in questions all point back to the significance and need for Hackman and Oldham’s Job Characteristics Model (JCM) as well as the utilization of job re-design based off of these findings. The JCM was originally created as a means to offer different principles that can be implemented at an organization to enrich the workplace for those involved. The JCM is essentially a work questionnaire that uses the information found to create statistical data in order…
