broken windows theory and community implant hypothesis (Lombardo & Lough, 2007). These theories argue that there is a direct relationship between distressed communities and crime. This means that the more disorganized a community is and the less resources that are available in that community the more likely they are going to be to commit crime. This theory of crime can be backed by Shaw and McKay who found that poor neighborhoods, inhabited by heterogeneous and residentially unstable residents,…

Breasts specifically play a role in being part of a woman’s idealized view of her sexual body, and it is this sexualized view of breasts that can undermine breastfeeding (Johnston-Robledo et al., 2007).

My people of choice are the ancient Egyptians. The Egyptians that once lived along side the Nile River. And the same Egyptians who were known for being great builders and inventors. There we’re a wonderful race of people. Egyptians are of great interest to me, partially because of great movies that were created based on them and their ways of life. “Ancient Egypt stood as one of the world’s most advanced civilizations for nearly 3,000 years.” (Evan Andrews, History Lists) The Nile River which…

To feign or not to feign: that is the question surrounding the behavior and actions of one of literature's most enigmatic tragic heroes. In William Shakespeare’s play Hamlet, the question is often asked of whether or not Hamlet is indeed insane, or feigning insanity for his own personal desire of investigating the truth behind Claudius and his role in murdering his father without raising too much suspicion on his part. After centuries of debate on the topic, Franco Zeffirelli came in confidently…
#Gamergate Growing up I always enjoyed playing video games with my sister and she was often better than I was at games that I played more often.

A particular influencer in the development of eating disorders in general, and therefore applicable in the case of Binge-Eating Disorders, is the presence and backlash of media (Stice, Schupak-Neuberg, Shaw, & Stien, 1994). The thin ideal as an indicator of beauty has been one of the most persistent ideologies that represents a substantial proportion of the development of eating disorders.
