7. Critically evaluate Thomson’s account of when killing in self-defence is morally permissible. Introduction The question of whether ever morally permissible to kill in self-defence is difficult as there can be so many combinations. In this article I am limiting the discussion to where your actions, which are the only way to save your life, result in one other person dying. Thompson in her article on self-defence, supports the general notion that most people feel in that if you are innocent…
There have been an array of different diets in which people have considered to switch to. Veganism is one of those diets, that not only is beneficial for the body, but also has ethical reasons to switch. However, is has been debated whether or not it is as healthy as it seems. Since animal products contain vitamins and mineral that plant based foods don’t, people who participate in the vegan diet have a lack of those vitamins and minerals. In the past, it was thought that a high intake of…
represent a merger between the characteristics of their heritage and host cultures. In Cultural Psychology, Heine (2012) also discusses the concept of frame-switching and priming. In comparison to blending, frame-switch suggests that people who have been exposed to multiple cultures switch…

cognitive abilities. WM and Bilingualism The primary process of executive function includes cognitive control like inhibition and shifting in working memory. This involves the ability to override a habitual but incorrect response and to be able to switch between tasks or mental tasks (Brocki, 2014). Bilingual children are able to comprehend and speak two languages fluently. Hence, the acquisition of language depends heavily on working memory, which allows bilingual children to…
INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES IN MULTI-TASKING While there have been many studies that have examined the cognitive processes involved with performance when task switching and the resulting switch costs, scientists have paid little attention to the effect of individual differences such as gender, on the deficits in performance produced by multitasking and as a consequence, the empirical evidence for a causal relationship between gender and performance is sparse. This research is important in…
This article talks about how the poison dart frogs has gaining resistance to lethal toxin. This toxin disrupts a chemical to their brain. However, by messing with these proteins that these toxins have in their body with a “switch”, which is how they call it in this article, who change protein building blocks, they have got to managed it. These frogs use this lethal toxin to defend themselves from predators. The study that these scientists did was focusing of frogs that carry epibatidine, a…
