knowledge in the field with a wider audience. Since many psychology-related research are conducted within institutionalized laboratories, only a selective group of people, such as researchers, research assistants, and research review board members know about the conducted research’s progress. Therefore, scientists, who obtain respectable degrees, usually write comprehensive papers dedicated to the progress of their research, while embracing the purpose of reporting their findings, whether these…

data online when they publish? Why or why not? No, think there should be a mandate for in researchers to share all their raw data online. In the article, the authors stated other fields of research have had a similar mandate in place for several years. Additionally, it would save a great amount of time and research funds if researchers were able to simply acquire the data when building on a study rather than having to replicate the original study in the first place. This redundancy is waste of…

Discussion As the aim of this research is to observe the effects of mindfulness on coping behaviours complying which the first hypothesis of research proposed is ‘mindfulness would significantly benefit a person’s coping behaviour’ and the second hypothesis is ‘mindfulness would reduce stress responses in the surveys’; the results of the research, however, fail to support both the hypotheses that mindfulness would significantly benefit a person’s coping behavior and mindfulness would reduce…

Empirical research in the field of criminal justice is based on experimentation or observation of evidence, which is usually conducted to answer a specific question or test a hypothesis. Empirical research in the criminal justice field is vital because the research provides background information for policy negotiations, a framework for understanding the problem, as well as creating solutions that may occur. We must also understand that empirical research does not always coincide with what one…

The rights based approach to researching children and young people is where they are involved actively in the research, not just as objects but as citizens with rights, (Fraser et al cited in, Open University, 2014), valued as an important source of knowledge about their own life and experiences. (Open University, 2014) However, as with all forms of research there are ethical and practical implications. There are some concerns surrounding the infringement of the child and young person’s rights…

faced many difficulties by preparing myself for this assignment. Before I have started my critical writing, I created a plan that helped me to cover all-important aspects of the topic and included weakness and strengths of research paper. The plan included questions such as: Is research methods are valid for particular topic? What did results show? Was methodology helpful? Also I have used other resources to compare my plan and my notes to see what I did not include, what should I improve? And…

in property taxes, which might inadvertently add to the chronic stress and poor health outcomes of Washington Park residents? These questions seek to garner information that will have a direct and positive impact on Chicago communities. Current research on the economic impact of presidential libraries does not delve into the effects on the communities where they are located; rather, scholarship focuses solely on economic outgrowth (Clark, 2015; Hufbauer, 2005). By critically analyzing the…

Reading journal articles for my classes, I was fascinated by the challenges and problem-solving process of research in general. Since Cooper Union has limited resources for research as a small engineering college, I was delighted to learn of this opportunity. With such passion in research, I was able to have an independent study course in school with one of the biological engineering professors and researched the DNA synthesis process. As a member of an International Genetically Engineered…

Multiferroic Magnetoelectric Nanostructures for Novel Device Application is a published research paper by members of the Materials Research Society. This discourse community’s purpose is to inform engineers, usually electrical engineers, about new electronic materials and their applications. In this article, three Northeastern University and one Pennsylvania State University academics describe the use of magnetoelectric nanostructures in modern technology. The technology industry is quickly…

It is imperative that protocols regarding ethics be in place to protect individuals who elect to take part in research studies. Mills and Gay have provided a thorough explanation of the obligations of those performing educational research (2016). Two major ethical considerations our authors mention that take effect for all research studies are: (a) no harm of any kind should come to participants as a result of taking part in a study, and (b) researchers must obtain informed consent on behalf…
