The theory of Caring as Nursing is concerned with caring being an unselfish act. It is also focused on a lived shared experience between the one providing care and the ones being cared for, in other words, a nursing situation (Boykin & Schoenhofer, 2013). The concept of caring is concerned with the demonstrating kindness and concern for others. In nursing, the expression of caring entails committed engagement, undivided attention, opportunities for questioning all in an attempt to address an…
are many excellent classical theories of play, one of the most intriguing was introduced by the German philosopher and psychologist Karl Gross. He was responsible for developing a theory of play that rivaled that of early philosophers even those as far back as Aristotle, when he introduced the Practice or Pre-exercise theory. Gross’s theory of play is considered a rebuttal by many to the ideals of another classical theory of play The Surplus Energy Theory that was theory made famous by German…
People become addicts because of the need for something that they do not have. And they do not have it because of their childhoods. His theory would even explain why people do not have addiction problems until perhaps fifty years after the trauma. It would most likely be because of a trigger that would cause them to lose the…
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 deduction from general issues but should be tailored to fit into the specific needs of each individual client. The unconditional positive regard…
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settling in the area can only be hypothesized since data recovery is limited at older sites and there are usually no historical documents to support archaeological theories.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…
Personal Identity theories hold a great deal of interest for metaphysical and ethical philosophers. Many attempt to determine wherein diachronic personal identity exists. Bernard Williams presents multiple thought experiments regarding personal identity in his chapter titled “The Self and the Future”. His thought experiments attempt to provoke answers to questions of personal identity. He presents situations in which bodies and brains are switched, and then asks the question, whose well-being…
essential materials included in the building of the house, it would merely be a pile of bricks with no structure and meaning. Henri Poincare uses this house as a metaphor for science. He ultimately compares the building of a house to shaping a stream of theories and facts into logical text. The relationship between the parts and the bricks must be significant in completing the task. Without this relationship between the parts and the bricks,…
and develop better answers. (Lecture 9, page 10). Another example of pseudoscience can be found in business, when decisions are made based on opinions using data in order to help us make better decisions accepting current theories. Instead of explore in detail these theories before applying it, creating a difference between fact claimed by science and opinion obtained by…
Science produces validated theories and is capable of making models that lets scientists build new things and sometimes predict natural events that doubtfully affect everyone. Science is unique because it is a specific way of developing knowledge. It can determine what is accepted as real and probably to predict how we live our lives. Science can tell us what is true. The era that we’re in right now is the era of science. I believe science has done a great service to the world. We are rational…
quite irrelevant to the evolutional theory. The second characteristic mentioned is sacred vs profane objects, places and times. Religion finds all kinds of different things sacred and important for worship while evolution does not. There is no different between a “sacred” or “profane” object, place, or time when looking into evolutionary theory. Cline’s third characteristic of religion is the rituals focused on sacred objects, places, and times. Evolutionary theory makes no claims whether or not…
