Likeability is going to be something that causes individuals to judge other individuals. One thing about likeability is going to be different judgments towards something. It does not matter if those individuals like a given topic or give situation. I have give four examples to support that likeability can change depending on the situation. The effects of service dogs on social acknowledgments of people in wheelchairs (Obermiller et al., 2011) showed that people make judgments on people in a…

Cayenne pepper is best known for its ability to increase the heat level of dishes and is prized by lovers of spicy foods the world over. This type of chile pepper is especially popular in Mexican and Mexican-influenced cuisine. However, the cayenne pepper is much more than a mere flavor enhancer. Cayenne peppers provide an array of nutritional benefits along with their heat. Those benefits result from high levels of nutrients and health-improving compounds like: Vitamins A 5 g serving of…

supercell caused 363 tornadoes to touch down in several states within a four day period. On April 27th alone, the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration confirmed over 200 tornadoes touched down that ranked between F-0 and F-6 on the Fujita scale. This record breaking phenomenon resulted in the deaths of 348 people with damages estimating over $11 billion dollars. Due to the magnitude of the outbreak, National Weather Services assigned several teams to not only investigate the…

catastrophic EF5 multiple-vortex tornado that struck Joplin, Missouri in the late afternoon of Sunday, May 22, 2011. “The Enhanced F-scale, or EF scale, is a set of wind estimates (not measurements) based on damage” (Enhanced Fujita Tornado Damage Scale). The Joplin tornado reached wind speeds of at least 200 mph, putting the tornado at the highest part of the scale. The tornado rapidly intensified and tracked eastward across the city, and then…

CORRELATIONS BETWEEN MY CD "COMPOSITIONAL IMPROVISATIONS™ FROM THE "MYSTERIA", AND "COMPOSITIONAL IMPROVISATIONS VOL I: WATER": Because these are improvisations, the use of the motives in the templates is to some extent arbitrary, as choices were made "in the moment" of improvisation--which is one of the most important aspects of the templates, one that can bring tremendous spontaneity to a performance. Other motives not in this template are used in the course of these improvisations as well,…

are designed to provide facts and information for forum discussion and face-to-face interactions”. The reliability of the four-item scale computed using Cronbach’s alpha is 0.854. Stage 2: Online Discussion The online discussion is measured using a five-item scale and the score for each subject is a summed score across the five items, using a five-point Likert scale ranging from 5 = strongly agree to 1 = strongly disagree. The forum topics mimic the real-world situations in the classroom so…

cognitive and affective components of PL, with the inclusion of the Children’s Self-Perception of Adequacy in and Predilection for Physical Activity (CSAPPA) scale. The CSAPPA is a 20-item, self-report questionnaire that has demonstrated a high test-retest reliability as well as strong predictive and construct validity (Cairney, J., et al, 2007). The scale was designed for children 9 to16 years of age and is a measure of generalized self-efficacy toward physical activity. The CSAPPA can be…

rotating updraft. “Only about 20% of all supercell thunderstorms, will actually produce a tornado” (Tornado Types). The other one is non-supercell thunderstorms. Non-supercell thunderstorms are circulations that do not form from an organized storm-scale rotation. These tornadoes form from a vertically spinning parcel of already occurring near the ground caused by wind shear from a warm, cold, or sea breeze front, or a dryline. Eastern Colorado experiences these non-supercell tornadoes, when…

version with scale modeling. A background is the most simple example. Set the scene with a picture or painting in the background to completely change the setting of the scene. It doesn't have to be real or interacted with. It only lets the audience assume the setting of the scene is in that location. Where it gets more complicated is when directors use scale modeling to represent something normally many times larger. The titanic was a perfect example of this. They used the 40 foot scale model of…

For this paper, I listened the RadioLab episode on music language. I chose this one because, being a musician myself, I’ve always been interested in the psychology behind music, specifically why certain sounds can so drastically alter our emotion. After all, they’re all just vibrations. So what is it about some vibrations that make them so much more significant to us than others? This is one of the primary questions addressed in this podcast. In discussing how music affects us emotionally, the…
