In health the presence of commensal bacteria in a dental biofilm activate a low level innate immune response. This low level response is important in priming host tissue cells and promoting tissue homeostasis. A shift in the composition of the dental biofilm and the presence of pathogenic organisms however cause an amplification of this immune response by localized cells. Many of the pathogenic organisms…

During the first few weeks of intervention I used a Social StoryTM intervention, followed by positive reinforcement for the target behavior. After last week’s observation of resistance to the Social StoryTM; intervention planning shifted towards priming and using first next charts. The behavior continued to be reinforced using a token economy on a fixed interval schedule every five minutes. The first observation from this week, is attentive listening skills have not generalized into the general…

With an increasing amount of technology and media dependency, there is more research being done as to how it affects children. Children from ages 8-18 watch tv, play video games, and are social media for an average of 7 hours and 38 minutes (Rubin 2010). In much of adolescent development, aggression and violence is attributed to the desensitization through video games. However, in more recent arguments, there has been a large bias exposed in more recent studies in the support of violence…

Our inherited ability to detect and differentiate facial expressions is an incredibly advantageous survival instinct. Being able to proficiently identify the facial affect of an aggressive enemy was an essential skill required for our survival. Similarly, recognizing different facial expressions is also important in our sociability in which we learn what is and is not socially acceptable. It has been theorized that individuals with psychopathy possess a deficit in their perception of these…

Experiencing Physical Warmth Promotes Interpersonal Warmth The importance of interpersonal warmth has been studied in several researches in social psychology. Interpersonal warmth has emerged as one of the components in forming first impression of the others and people tend to think that a “warm” person is more prosocial, cooperative, generous, and trusting whereas a “cold” person is more self-centered, competitive and untrustworthy (Bargh & Shalev, 2012). It is believed that social warmth is…

Agenda Setting theory was developed by Maxwell McCombs and Donald Shaw. According to Griffin (2011), McCombs and Shaw believe that the mass media have the ability to transfer the salience of items on their news agendas to the public agenda. This theory refers to mass communications effects which hold that news media, through the editorial selection process, transmit to the public the salience of political objects, which affects the relative importance of these objects to the public. (Kaid &…

demonstrating normal MNS activity; this sheds doubt on the theory that the mirror neuron system must be involved in imitation-related impairments. Unfortunately for Fan and colleagues (2010), several other studies discuss familiarity and priming with simple actions; priming may be an issue because the subjects’ mirror neurons are activating from habit and not from interpretation of the social stimulus that is being presented (Ozonoff, 2010). The ASD participants in this study show absolutely no…
