method gave an understanding on what factors were present most frequently and to whom, it leaves out an external factors that may be reasons why people attend college. The authors decided to conduct this study in order to “reveal strong social motivators for going to college.” Much of this study was intended to “accurately measure the motivations of traditional college students’ decision to continue their education into college,” (Corts, Stoners; 776).

Obesity results from an energy imbalance involving excessive calorie consumption and inadequate physical activity (Karnik, 2012). Factors influencing the onset of obesity include genetic, behavioral, cultural, and environmental (Karnik, 2012). This paper will explain the significant health implications of childhood obesity, describe the risk factors that contribute towards obesity, and use the Social Cognitive Theory and the theory of planned behavior to describe how different factors influence…

Bike and Bus Rapid Transit (BBRT) 4.1 Status of San Francisco’s Bike Lanes In the current development of bicycle traffic, San Francisco cannot compare with Amsterdam or Copenhagen, but it has done quite well in the nation. San Francisco is one of the initial seven members of the Green Lane Project in the U.S. Green lanes are next-generation bike lanes being built across the country. They are dedicated and appealing spaces for bicyclists that are protected from vehicles and independent from…

as the study of how leaders effectively or ineffectively ‘do’ rather than ‘who’ leaders are. (Northhouse.2016) Experts suggest that leaders engage in two primary types of behaviors; task and relationship behaviors. Malcolm X, was able to combine both of these behavioral…

Background The pursuit of a world without poverty is now a global challenge not only for global actors but also people themselves. This challenge is very significant especially in traditional fishing communities where the deprivation of multiple indicators is constant and continues (IFAD, 2003). The questions being shooted are like why are traditional fishermen so often poor? why are efforts of poverty alleviate programs not resulting with desired outcomes? How experience of poverty in…

Abstract- SVM(Support vector machine) is Mainly established for linear two-class classification through building an optimal splitting hyper plane, here the margin is maximized. SVM is useful for kernel trick to map the novel input space into a high dimensional feature space to improve the classifier generalization ability when the training data is not linear splitable. GA(Genetic Algorithm) is a stochastic and the empirical searching algorithm that is stimulated by natural evolution. The…
