Septic shock

simulate the transmission of shocks from the Trans-Pacific region to the US. FAVAR has two advantages compared with traditional VAR. First, it can incorporate a broader set of information related to the unknown transmission mechanism by utilizing detailed sectoral data. As Maier and Vasishtha (2013) note, this is particularly relevant when the international transmission mechanism involves more than two countries. Second, FAVAR allows us to study the transmission of shocks in several…

said, “The moment it hears the tone and feels the shock, inside its head, a bunch of neurons start to build. Whenever you create a memory, it 's an active cellular connection. What we 're talking about here is associative memories, an association between two things in the outside world.” Basically, a connection was built between the tone brain cell and the shock brain cell. After playing the tone a second time, the rat would brace itself for the shock. Succeeding trying it out on a rat, they…

teacher and the accomplice was always the learner. Once the participant assumed their role the learner was taken into a room next door, and with the participant watching, he was then strapped to a chair with wired electrodes, which was connected to the shock generator in the next room with the teacher. Once the learner was attached instructions of the experiment followed. The main goal was having the learner memorize connections between various pairs of words. The teacher (who was the true…

Hypernatremia occurs when the body has increased serum sodium levels that go over 145 mEq/L. This increase in serum sodium levels results in hypertonicity, pulling water out of cells resulting in cell shrinkage. Based on extracellular fluid water volume (level of hypertonicity), hypernatremia can be isovolemic (most common), hypovolemic, or hypervolemic. When isovolemic hypernatremia occurs, there is a loss of free water whilst maintaining near normal sodium serum concentration. Isovolemic…

Have you ever wondered why people don't listen to authority? Or maybe why there is such an issue with disobedience? We see all over the world that there is a major problem in obeying and disobeying. People obey or disobey authority because they desire to conform to society, they fear authority, and because of moral conviction. We continue to be obedient because we want to fit in with rest of the world, were afraid to be different and stand up for what we really believe. “As long as i am…

Mallard. She had a heart disease and any seriously shocking moments could trigger a fatal heart attack. Mrs. Mallard is an unsympathetic person based on her desire to become a widow, the perceived joy and freedom of her husband’s death, and the shock she faces when she realizes her husband is still alive. Mrs. Mallard felt stuck with no power and desired to become a widow because a widow had almost as much power as a man. She had two people watch over her because of her heart condition-…

the experimenter Stanley Milgram found a few contributors to test out his theory. Before he started his experiment he had to pick a teacher and a student, who each got a piece of paper to decide which one is going to give the shocks and which one was going to take the shocks. The learner was strapped up to an electric chair while the teacher would be on the other side talking through a microphone providing word pairs. The teacher would tell the student a list of words, then the learner read…

Learned Helplessness Any animal which has realized it has no control over its own actions after dealing with pain or abuse with no escape for an extended amount of time a person or other animal has learned to be helpless. Through no fault of ones own inescapable punishments encircle ones life and flight from that inevitable punishment soon permeates ones mind resulting in no escape and no way to decipher between good and bad actions and in most cases learning is severely impaired.. They can…

myself. As soon as I discovered there was nothing like I expected, I was anxious and homesick. I wondered how long it would take me to adapt to this new culture and the people. Only a couple months passed, but I already experienced several culture shocks such as tipping, holding doors, greeting strangers, kissing in public, and difference view of respecting to elders, etc. Most of them I experienced in high school, it was where I learned the most interesting and weird things of American…

scholarly article, “ Behavioral Study of Obedience” written and conducted by Stanley Miller, an experiment was performed to see if a group of amenable participants, named subjects, were willing to provide electrical shocks to another person, the experiment tested how far down the severity of shocks the subject would administer to the victim. The question is would being in the position of control and having a feeling as if the subject cannot leave, makes shocking another person justifiable? To…
