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. When at the ball, the prince falls in love with her and she has the opportunity to live “happily ever after.” At least that’s the version most young girls have been told.…

of cyberbullying to activate affective empathy. The results of this portion of the study showed those exposed to the video were significantly less likely to demonstrate negative bystander behaviors, but once again gender did not have a significant effect. In the third and final portion of the study, cognitive empathy on negative bystander behavior, the same video was viewed by all participants, but with different sets of instructions. The first group was told to identify with the cyberbullying…

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…

The Healing Power of Tunes Alternative medicine is not something everybody believes in, but something everybody can feel an effect on the brain, a mood or health. Sometimes it is quiet hard to explain, however it works. Surprisingly, 60 % of people worldwide rely on non-conventional medicine, including herbs, aromatherapy, acupuncture or hand healing. Music therapy is an exception. It is widely used in surgery and treating serious diseases. What result can be expected from just listening to…

The Greenhouse Effect Most people recognize global warming, but fail to recognize what is really behind it. In addition, most people would also recognize the concept of the greenhouse effect, or at least some variation of it. The fact is that the greenhouse effect is what leads to global warming, but how does that happen? Let’s start with some historical analysis of the topic. The greenhouse effect (or at least a rough version) was originally thought of and recognized by Jean Baptiste Joseph…

Bystander Intervention is a social science model which predicts that in the presence of others, people are less likely to offer help than when they are alone. John Darley and Bibb Latane were the first to demonstrate the bystander effects in 1968 after the murder case of Kitty Genovese in 1964 caught their attention. Any bystander has two basic choices: to help or do nothing. Before a bystander is likely to take action, they must notice the event, interpret the situation as an emergency, decide…

It is important to understand why sometimes we fail to help in emergencies. The ‘bystander effect’, is a concept that as the group size increases, the less likely a person will intervene (Levine & Cassidy, 2009). The main reasons for this occurring include the notion of audience inhibition, social influence and diffusion of responsibility (Levine & Cassidy, 2009). Research by Darley, Lewis and Teger (1978) demonstrated that group size may not be the only significant factor in helping in an…

In 2016, mostly everything is instantaneous: information, media, and most of all our food. People in the western world, particularly Americans, rely on the instantaneousness of food in their daily lives. This benefit of accessibility is also a downfall. The food that millions of Americans consume so readily and easily on a daily basis is not only bad for them, but also the environment. Americans are eating more fast food than ever before. Long gone are the days of home cooked meals every day…

The word forensic derives from the Latin word “forensis” which means to be publicly known or heard. Most forensic scientists in the 1800 and 1900’s were self- taught but even now there are not many colleges that are certified to give a degree in forensics. Forensic science has been around since 44 B.C. but it wasn’t recognized as a method of science until the late 20th century. Forensic science is an asset in solving crime. Forensic science has become so popular in the past twenty- five years. I…
