Employees working for a large government office report fatigue and lack of motivation around 2:00 pm each day. An experiment could test if 15 minutes of walking, during the morning break and during the afternoon break, would decrease these symptoms. The control group would not be active during breaks and experimental group will walk. Each would then self-report fatigue. Participants will be broken into two groups randomly. The experimental group will take fifteen-minute break in the morning at…

everything individually -- there are universal principles. Newton’s second rule appears in the Mathematical Principle of Natural Philosophy, sometimes referred to as the Principia, written in the seventeenth century. Newton’s Principia represents the Scientific Revolution in a broad sense as well as the need for overarching truths during a period of massive overhaul. The “Rules of Reasonings in Philosophy” served as a guide to all scholars and is also indicative of what qualifies particular…

Case Study Introduction The following case study is of a child’s interaction with an inquiry based activity. The children will be able to connect with some key concepts of physical science. The outcomes are linked to the Australian Curriculum, Science/Year 2/Science understanding/physical sciences/ACSSU033 (Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority [ACARA], 2014). The activity is designed to promote children’s hands-on and mind-on skills, by applying their prior knowledge and…

My point is twofold, (1) what we have termed "hard science" rarely strays outside the lines of "scientific fact" to answer questions; psychology unintentionally does this through it 's many factions, and (2) this multitude of approaches only enhances the potential for discovery. To argue that it is unscientific to consider and test every angle and every viewpoint when concerned with a certain scientific question is a narrow and underdeveloped assertion. If science in general had never dared…

The white women of the town in America in no way resemble racism. Discuss. In his film ‘The Help’, the director Tate Taylor demonstrates the racism that was issued in the 1960’s of Mississippi and how racism deeply affected the families and that people of the present day must condemn it. In the film, racism is a part of the ordinary lives of the white women that live in Jackson, some chose condemn it, like Skeeter and Celia, enforce it, like Hilly or accept it, like Charlotte and Elizabeth.…

Type of Quantitative Research Question I would use a comparative research question and an experimental design for my research study. I would use a comparative research question because I am comparing two different groups and have only one dependent variable. I would use a true experimental design because I am using one control group and one experimental group. My research question is how does receiving subcutaneous injections of insulin compare to receiving insulin through an insulin pump in…

“the look which the eyes manifest, no matter what kind of eyes they are, is a pure reference to myself.” – Sartre Naturally, people find eye contact with strangers quite confronting and therefore do anything they can to try and avoid it. In order to avoid eye contact with people in public situations such as being on a bus, people will often look straight ahead at the back of the bus, towards the ground or even out the window. It is interesting to explore the reasons behind why people find eye…

ambitions were fueled by the complications he faced as a result of his religious family. Employing his adversity, Rowland later advanced to become a renowned scientist to revolutionize not only the design of spectroscopy but also the perception of scientific research in the late 19th century. He redirected his suppressions of the world to further develop this study of “pure science,” the understanding that science should focus on research for the advancement of knowledge. This concept of science…

Ethnographic Research Methodology in Practice Ethnographic research is one of the dominant methodologies in my field of study. While I have read ethnographic research studies in the past, this project gave me an opportunity to actually study how the methodology was used in different ways. To select my articles, I went to a folder I created for a project I am working on with my research advisor involving ethnicity and race talk in classrooms. After reviewing the abstracts, I selected three…
