Growing up in a very traditional home you tend to adapt to your surroundings of the love that is provided there. The author of this article grew up admiring the love her parents had for each other. She would ask over and over again how they met in a small town in Mexico, yet make it hundreds of miles to Phoenix to once again cross paths. Since the moment they met, they have had a very strong connection, but somewhere along the years they began to drift apart. Where did it go wrong? Could there…

Therefore, this research study sought to answer these questions: the suspicion that there is no difference in the similarity of the stimuli used in these experiments, task difficulty and its role in identifying the presence of stimuli, and comparisons between…

I chose to do my observation during one of my shifts at work in a child care center. More specifically, it was in a transition classroom for children of ages two to three.
