Samuel Gladding (2008) in his book provides a comprehensive view of groups throughout the lifespan. The groups looked at are; groups for children, groups for adolescents, groups for adults and groups for older adults. Gladding considers group to be an important aspect throughout the lifespan. Group work with children is looked at by Gladding (2008) as “work with children under the age of 14 that requires a special knowledge of child development and group theory” (p. 245). Consequently, when…

Visiting the doctor is a task that no one looks forward to, but everyone does. This time during a doctor visit the nurse asks to draw blood. The nurse says “we will send the blood to the lab; it’s routine, we will call when the results come in.” One week later there is a call from the doctor who solemnly says he would like to meet with them in person. Upon arriving at the office the doctor says “I am sorry, but the results indicate terminal cancer.” Once the shock, and paralyzing fear subsides,…

My personal response to the Egalitarian views of Linda Belleville and Craig Keener is varied. When reading and learning from Belleville I would go from understanding and personally align in thought, to feeling her view was somewhat stretching for me especially when other references were used outside of scripture. I was able to follow Keener closer, but this could be based on my up bringing in the evangelical church. It was very helpful to learn from Belleville the difference between…

The information stored in the long term memory can take many forms. However, most long- term memory can be categorized into one of the several types: episodic, semantic, procedural and emotional memories Episodic memories are memories of specific event that happen to you, and can be easily told to another person. Usually these memories come from personal experience. Episodic memories can be compared to a diary that let you go back in time and let you retrieve a personal…

The Hebbian theory states that “neurons that fire together wire together.” This theory, credited to Canadian psychologist Donald Hebb, is underlying principle for how we learn as well as how we build and maintain new long-term memories. There are two types of long-term memory, explicit and implicit. Explicit memory is memory of facts and events. Explicit memory is formed by encoding. consolidation, storage, and retrieval. Encoding is arranging information for each memory from sensory system and…

Have you ever thought about the process your brain goes through to store all the things you’re able to remember? Just like anything our brain is a muscle that needs to be put to practice. Some of us may have short term memory while others have long term memory. None of this is set in stone. One’s memory capacity can grow over time, should you practice the right exercises. I personally do not have the best memory for certain areas but a great one for others. Throughout my lifetime I have…

In this study, Burnett and his colleagues were exploring visual working memory or more commonly known as short-term memory, and its improvement during childhood. Previous studies have analyzed the total amount of memory that one can withhold in this type of memory. Results from these studies have indicated that children can remember up to four items at a time. Though this previous research provides a basic understanding of how much a memory of a child can withhold Burnett decided to take a step…

lethal injection to end a patient’s life. While that is the definition for euthanasia, assisted suicide is when a patient suffering from an incurable disease ends their life by taking of lethal prescription provided by a doctor (Stokely 2). While the terms are very similar, the way in which the patient ends their life is different. Assisted suicide is often debated on ethical, economic, and legal grounds. Assisted suicide should be legalized in all states because it is way for a terminally ill…

support, and structural support, while assisting the terminally ill to drop the feeling of being burdensome to their loved once. Robinson and Segal (2014) mention that hospice also offers support to terminal patients and their families and friends in terms of bereavement support, social and physical services, and inpatient and nursing care. Hospice and other related programs also offer support in form of therapies, which may be speech therapies, or complimentary occupational and physical…

were in privity of contract; hence, you were both involved in the contract and had an established contractual relationship. In addition, a doctrine of contract law that precludes any person from seeking the enforcement of a contract, or suing on its terms, unless they are a party to that contract. As a general rule, contractual rights and liabilities affect only the parties to the contract and a person who is not party can neither sue nor be sued on the contract (Ainah, 2005) A contract cannot…
