This study will help to establish whether postgraduates are on par with their peers in other countries in the acquisition of intellectual...

In the survey I gave to my fellow teen drivers, I found that blahblahblah % admitted to eating/drinking while driving. I also discovered that blahblahblah % agreed to changing the radio station while driving. Why would such a large percentage of people agree to having taken at least one or both of their hands off the wheel you may ask? I discovered that the largest amount of people who did this believe that they can multitask efficiently. They do not view the activities that they are doing as potentially dangerous or harmful. They see it simply as...
