In the video “The Five Levels of Management,” John Maxwell stated that the five levels of leadership are position, permission, lead by example, people development level, and the Pinnacle level. I thought he explained the five levels of management very well and in a way that is relatable. Anyone who has had a supervisor or has been a leader can relate to his analogies and experiences. I felt that I could put his words together with our text book and class lectures well. John stated that level…

CHAPTER 2 – ANIMAL MODELS 5. Animal models: 5.a. Neurotoxic Models: 5.a.1. 6- Hydroxydopamine model: One of the most frequently used toxin-based animal model is 6-OHDA. It was first isolated in 1950. It is frequently used in rats. It shows affinity for catecholaminergic transporter. For example, norepinephrine transporter and dopamine transporter.

Maslow is a well-known psychologist who came up with the hierarchy of five basic levels of needs in 1954, so these needs range in a certain order, from the most essential for Self-Actualization to the least necessary. The highest level of needs satisfaction can only be reached if the lower-level needs already have been satisfied in a regular way and there are explained as variable and unlimited…

The most central of these five is the unconscious; a postulation that is more developed and specific than any other postulation that can be found in current cognitive or social psychology (Westen, 1998; Bargh & Morsella, 2008). Primarily pursued by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716) and then Johann Freidrich Herbart (1776-1841), the theory of…

These traits are: i. consciousness and capacity to feel pain, ii. reasoning, iii. self-motivated, iv. capacity to communicate, and v. presence of self-concept and self awareness. Warren continues to argue in favour that one is considered person if they possess at least one of these traits, for if they do not, they cannot be considered a person. It is clear that Warren is for the practice…

Personality indicators or assessments can be an eye opener for a person who is not completely knowledgeable or truthful about his or her own personality traits. Personalities do tend to differ based on the various things such as the time of the week, time of the day, awareness, and even physical appearances. Personally, I feel my personality is acceptable and can improve, but with the help of a Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and a Big Five Personality Model, I have a new form of identity for myself…

The authors also discovered that students high in Openness indicated larger rates of stimulant use compared to other drugs. Moreover, the authors found that…
