Probability theory

southern Appalachian region only to abandon it in the 1700s. The origins of the Cherokee settling in the area can only be hypothesized since data recovery is limited at older sites and there are usually no historical documents to support archaeological theories. In Pox, Empire, Shackles, and Hides, Marcoux centers his research on the Townsend Site in Tennessee that holds three archaeological excavation sites. Marcoux wisely does not rely only the data collected at the sites, but also utilizes…

The Zika virus is quickly becoming a major problem for today’s society with the main problem being that scientists do not know why the virus is beginning to transmit so quickly. This study consists of research gathered the internet and peer reviewed journals produced by scientists. It was hypothesized that the increase in transmission is because of tourists traveling to sporting events in South America. Information was collected and observed and the findings supported the fact that climate…

nature of a theory is a statement about a topic that shows a relationship between two variables. The role of a theory within a research should contribute to a study that shows how two or more variables relates, which have not yet been discovered, or at least provide further analysis of previous studies. Harlow (2009) added that in order to make a potential theoretical contribution to a research is the strength of a particular case study. She also added that a case study tests a particular…

In my everyday life things occur in which at times I cannot explain “how” nor “why” they occurred. Most of the time I become frustrated and simply let the situation take control of my emotions. I do not think of ways of making them better I simply say “forget it”. Applying logic and thinking of ways of making things better or making things work and coming up with a solution is using the Scientific method. The scientific method enables us to observe, ask questions, develop a hypothesis, test your…

become a theory. The method uses several techniques in order to study a phenomena and render a hypothesis that can be researched. Research can be done in several different ways. One example, in which is discussed in the textbook, is observation of chimpanzees by Emmanuelle Grundmann.(Jurmain et al 2013-14) Another process is through means of experimentation in order to test one 's hypothesis. Both processes have a means of collecting data so one can logically formulate a conclusion or theory in…

Art as reflected in Three Theories”, Rajan Menon and John R. Oneal interpret the discourse behind imperialism and formulate three theories; the realist theory, the socialist theory of capitalism and the theory of lateral pressure. Although all theories hold some truth, the most applicable theory is that of lateral pressure. This theory can be used to explain why the British attempted to colonize certain oil-rich regions during the early 20th…

different theories that try and explain deviant behaviors. One of them is Cultural Transmission or also known as Differential Associations Theory. This is a theory that says all behavior is learned, this would include deviant behavior. This theory focuses on the age of the “learner”, the intensity of the contact with the deviant “teacher” and the ratio of good ot bad in the learners life. So for an example if a child is Born to a mother and father that would do drugs, and when the father…

While subject dualist pay mind to the fact that some mental states can be conscious, without telling us how they can be or giving an example. This causes a strong opportunity for epiphenomenalist to argue about this theory. If this can be true then it must be possible that physical states of the brain give rise to the nonphysical conscious properties, causing nothing. These concepts brought to the idea that the mind is not physical but these argument strongly contest otherwise. A big part of…

Characteristics such as rapport building skills, empathy and unconditional positive regard can all be developed in the counseling process with clients; however rapport building and empathy are two that are most likely to change with each client and therefore should be genuinely new and relevant to each person as they come along. For example, each client that comes in will need a different set of feelings from their counselor, since every one’s story is different. The empathy can be a general…

This, at first, greatly hindered scientific advancement. The church – because of it’s own prideful blindness – spent too much time opposing the new theories, instead of engaging them and really considering them. They could not have considered that the new findings could bring them closer to an understanding of God and His creation. We must not fall into the same trap. We should not let our own dogma get in the way of scientific advancement. The truth will prevail. Let us not reject something we…
