increases, the tack of an ink in a press decreases. The heat liquefies the ink, which makes the ink less viscous (thick), allowing it to become less tacky when placed on top of paper through the rollers. The ending results between the similar rpm tests were similar in values. After 10 minutes the higher rpm’s tack value was closer to what research suggests should be standard. Research indicates that a tack value for web offset…
As with most things in life, tests are easier when someone first takes the necessary steps to prepare for them. A crucial component to preparing for a test is by incorporating successful strategies in order to study the test material. My study habits have been continuously refined throughout my tenure as both a high school student and then as a college student.

Therefore, researchers found alternate ways to obtain their human subjects. From trickery to deception, researchers did whatever they deemed necessary in order to get their subject. Most subjects were random unless they were finding subjects that have a certain disease or characteristic. One key…

The following minutes are filled with stress, anxiety, and worry. But this does not compare to the time consuming, mind thwarting, brain exhausting hours of study5ing that is now to commence to do well on this test. That day after…
of various tests, as well as designated negative and positive control samples. Chemical samples may be experimentally identified as specific macromolecules through treatment with Benedict’s solution, the iodine test, or the Biuret test; each, when positive, identifying reducing sugars, starch or glycogen, and protein, respectively (Cardoso, M. B., Samios, D., da Silveira, N. P., Rodembusch, F. S., & Stefani, V., 2007; Kumar J, 2011). This laboratory used the aforementioned three tests to…
Why Test When You Can Assess? According to American Test Anxieties Association, “40-60% of students admit to having test anxiety at some point or another and around 38% of students record having it all the time” (Brideau par. 5). Exams should be outlawed in favor of another form of assessment, such as demonstration, class activities, and projects because hands on assessments give a better explanation to students and improves motivation, helps learners improve their performances, and also…

This paper explains the effects of the famous Stroop Test, what it means, and why it stumps so many minds. The Stroop Test brings into the field many questions about how the brain works, like whether humans can identify words faster than colors or vice versa. The fascination people have with this test is not because it is easy and fun, but because it is confusing and tricky. A simple task of identifying the color of a word when the color does not match the word seems like a piece of cake…
