...to live with it, believing that each day will be each step to success. Parents work hard to give the best for their children. The government offers programs and solutions to problems, for the benefit and development of the people. And as an individual, we have responsibility to help ourselves and be beneficial to others. Working students are those individuals who find ways to make things possible for themselves and to others. As we become modern, more and more students find ways to cope with the situation. Poverty, emotional problems, environment aspects and other problems are not enough reason for them to lose hope and stop dreaming. Instead it helps them become more determine in pursuing their dreams and reaching their goals. Determination and courage give them strength to overcome whatever comes their way and make it through. Working while studying helps them pay their tuition fees, buy their necessities and or if possible help their parents and siblings. And because of doing part-time jobs and or the others full-time jobs, they can afford going to college or university. It helps them gain experience needed in having self-discipline, becoming committed and responsible individual. This helps them grow more as individuals, strong and independent enough to pursue their own potentials and reach their limit. This study enables us to focus on things that are more important in life and give us more insight on the real and actual life the working students...

...1. Respect for Persons. -- Respect for persons incorporates at least two ethical convictions: first, that individuals should be treated as autonomous agents, and second, that persons with diminished autonomy are entitled to protection. The principle of respect for persons thus divides into two separate moral requirements: the requirement to acknowledge autonomy and the requirement to protect those with diminished autonomy. An autonomous person is an individual capable of deliberation about personal goals and of acting under the direction of such deliberation. To respect autonomy is to give weight to autonomous persons' considered opinions and choices while refraining from obstructing their actions unless they are clearly detrimental to others. To show lack of respect for an autonomous agent is to repudiate that person's considered judgments, to deny an individual the freedom to act on those considered judgments, or to withhold information necessary to make a considered judgment, when there are no compelling reasons to do so. However, not every human being is capable of self-determination. The capacity for selfdetermination matures during an individual's life, and some individuals lose this capacity wholly or in part because of illness, mental disability, or circumstances that severely restrict liberty. Respect for the immature and the incapacitated may require protecting them as they mature or while they are incapacitated. Some persons are in need of extensive...

...Hepatitis A virus is most commonly transmitted to individuals through food that has been contaminated with fecal matter. Most food infected from the Hepatitis A virus is grown where water is contaminated by fecal matter during the irrigation process. Hepatitis a virus also can be transmitted from person to person if the initial person has the virus and does not wash his or her hands properly after using the restroom then handling food. Outbreaks in the United States Although there are not many outbreaks of Hepatitis A in the United States there have been some occasions. One of the biggest outbreaks of Hepatitis A occurred in Monaca, Pennsylvania, 2003. A local restaurant infected more than 550 people with the virus. Of those persons infected with the virus three of those persons died. Upon further investigation by the Pennsylvania Department of Health and the CDC it was determined that the cause of the virus were from green onions shipped to the restaurant from Mexico. Incidentally it was found that there were also outbreaks of the Hepatitis virus in Tennessee, Georgia, and North Carolina during the same period in 2003 also linked to farms in Mexico. Symptoms, Duration, and Treatment The most common symptoms of Hepatitis A is Fatigue, itching, Loss of appetite, low-grade fever, nausea, vomiting, pale or clay colored stools, and yellow skin (jaundice). Most symptoms will not show in an individual until 15 – 45 days after infections. These symptoms...

...Assessment Tool Analyses As stated by Weissman and Beck in Development and Validation of the Dysfunctional Attitude Scale: A Preliminary Investigation, The Dysfunctional Attitude Scale (DAS) was developed to measure pervasive negative attitudes of a depressed person towards self, outside world, and future. (Weissman, 1978, p.3) When it was initially done it had one hundred questions, then it was reduced to two sets of forty questions and since then there have been different versions used to assess and research different studies. The Dysfunctional Attitude Scale shows that in depressed individuals there is a correlation in depression and the individual’s distortion in their views of self, world and future. . (Weissman, 1978, p.7) In reading the above article it is evident that the use of the Dysfunctional Attitude Scale is best used in an young adult to adult setting as a tool of depression evaluation. The areas covered in the questions pertain to accessibility of where you stand in life and measurements are by life events such as job, coworker’s ability to provide and so on. The knowledge gained and its validity has to do with whether or not the individuals are being honest in their answers. Also the perceptions that the individuals may have about their own lives may be distorted so how can it be a true answer to some questions. If using this tool in nursing process it would be effective for those involved in care as to how they will continue to care for themselves...

...The first overall phase is of the development of the relationship to its (hopefully long-term) peak. Initiation In the initial contact early impressions are made. Although these may be inaccurate, they may well significantly influence whether the individuals want to progress the relationship to a further stage. For romantic relationships physical impressions of appearance, dress, smell and so on are often important (for women too). General pleasantness is also important for social and business relationships. Experimentation If the parties show initial interested, they may next start exploring, looking for common interests, common acquaintances and other ground on which they can meet and share. In business relationships, there will also be investigation into what each person brings to the table that will add value to the business of the other person. Intensifying With enough in common, the people now start sharing more private information and checking for reciprocal sharing by the other person that signals their interest in deepening the relationship. This stage may also include spending more time together, gift-giving and declarations of affection. Advances may be made for further intimacy to test for the desire take things further. In business, this may include negotiation and contracting activity that will lead up to value creation and exchange. Integration The two people now start seeing each other more often as they integrate a number of parts of...

...Principles of individual decision - making paper Developing professional knowledge and abilities can impact career success. Companies today require a minimum educational level for any job. Acquiring a degree in today’s society opens a vast array of opportunities in addition, to giving individuals an upper hand in many situations. Knowledge consists of facts and ideas that have been acquired by study, investigation, observation, or experience. In today’s society, Professional knowledge is just as important for the professional field as it is for personal use. Association of Professional Community Managers (APCM) is an organization of special interest. Working in Property Management it necessary to interact and meet new people outside my normal work environment. “For more than 30 years, APCM has been the leader in providing education and resources to the volunteer homeowners who govern community associations and the professionals who support them” (Community Association Institute, 2010). The above-mentioned organization contributes to increasing personal knowledge and abilities in the following ways: online training, monthly seminars, continuing education, conferences, and books.

...However, not every human being is capable of self-determination. The capacity for self-determination matures during an individual's life, and some individuals lose this capacity wholly or in part because of illness, mental disability, or circumstances that severely restrict liberty. Respect for the immature and the incapacitated may require protecting them as they mature or while they are incapacitated. Some persons are in need of extensive protection, even to the point of excluding them from activities which may harm them; other persons require little protection beyond making sure they undertake activities freely and with awareness of possible adverse consequence. The extent of protection afforded should depend upon the risk of harm and the likelihood of benefit. The judgment that any individual lacks autonomy should be periodically reevaluated and will vary in different situations. In most cases of research involving human subjects, respect for persons demands that subjects enter into the research voluntarily and with adequate information. In some situations, however, application of the principle is not obvious. The involvement of prisoners as subjects of research provides an instructive example. On the one hand, it would seem that the principle of respect for persons requires that prisoners not be deprived of the opportunity to volunteer for research. On the other hand, under prison conditions they may be subtly coerced or unduly influenced to engage in research activities...

...Influence On Consumer Behaviour * INTRODUCTION Each consumer is a member of a culture, various subcultures, and a social class; most of us belong to a number of different groups and almost would like to belong to several others. A group is defined as two or more individuals who share a set of norms, values, or beliefs and interact to accomplish individual or mutual goals. A group becomes a reference group when an individual identifies with it so much that he or she takes on many of the value, attitudes or personal standards of group members. The degree of reference group influence varies across product and brands with factors such as (1) the visibility to the group, (2) the necessity/non-necessity nature of the product, (3) the level of commitment the individual feels to a group, (4) the relevance of the behavior to the group, and (5) degree of individual’s confidence in his own judgment in the purchase situation. * DESCRIPTION The majority of people belong to more different groups at the same time and frequently they want to be included in other groups as well, but in a specific situation they report themselves to a single group. When a new situation appears or the conditions change, the individuals may report themselves to the rules of another group which becomes the reference group for the given situation. Most people prefer to adapt, more or less, to the group's rules, from politeness or the desire to not be left aside. The norms are the general, common expectations...

...As a nurse one runs into some very saddening/ maddening situations, some that cause not only the individual nurse, but the entire nursing staff to be thrown into conflict with their beliefs of non-maleficense and a patient’s right to autonomy. I always strive to never cause any harm to a patient and treat them kindly despite behaviors that could lead one to not want to act or treat someone is such a manner. Additionally I believe an individual should also have the right and be supported in making decisions about their healthcare, but when the decision is in effect, taken away from them, who has that right? When the nurse and stand staff struggle with the decision that is being made, it complicates the picture, leads to a lot of frustration and nurses feel helpless Several years ago there was an incident of a pt that received a kidney transplant, but during the immediate post operative course the patient, suffered a respiratory arrest, was anoxic for a period of time leaving the pt with anoxic brain damage. This was an individual who, prior to surgery, was a fully functional person. After time in the ICU the patient was able to be on the nursing floor; trached, unable to swallow, g-tube, very limited ability to walk, or transfer to a chair w maximal assistance of typically 2 staff members. The individual also tended, what seemed to be intentional, to try and injure nursing staff, by pinching, kicking and biting.. I was often assigned to this pt, and on several occasions...

...INTRODUCTION For an individual to better understand a particular society there is the need to first of all understand the term sense of belonging. The concept of sense of belonging may be define as the perception of similarity to others, an acknowledged interdependence with others, a willingness to maintain this interdependence by giving to or doing for others what one expects from them, and the feeling that one is part of a larger dependable and stable structure Belonging is closely linked to the concepts of identity, social groups, and communities. Because diverse experiences, backgrounds, cultures, heritages, and histories lead to unique individual experiences of belonging (or not belonging) in society, one person’s sense of belonging to a place or a people cannot readily be defined by others. Belonging to groups is the starting point of learning about roles and responsibilities and reflects choosing to identify with other members of society. Identity refers to who people feel that they are as individuals (“who I am”) and as members of groups (“who we are”). It also includes their identities in the eyes of others (for example, as they are commonly represented in the media McMillan & Chavis (1986) define sense of community as "a feeling that members have of belonging, a feeling that members matter to one another and to the group, and a shared faith that members' needs will be met through their commitment to be together. The following are how sense of belonging helps...

...Kait Kurtz Management 251 Effective Followers There are many types of followers just as there are many types of leaders. A person’s behavior and personality can help to determine which category they most appropriately fall into. What we are going to focus on is followers and in particular is effective followers. How does an effective follower work and what does is it that drives them? There are five main characteristics that we are going to focus on for an effective follower and they are: dedication, independent thinker, active in the organization, self-management, and willing to take risks. Dedication is defined as the quality of being dedicated to a task or purpose, but it can also be interchanged with loyalty. An effective follower is someone who a colleague or manager can count on because they know that they will give it one hundred percent when it comes to completing a task. They tend to really believe in what they are doing and that is where the sense of dedication comes from. For example a dedicated employee would be willing to put in the long hours and extra time that it would take to complete a project. Their boss trusts that the work will not be sloppy or incomplete because their loyalty is outstanding. Dedication is very important to being an effective follower. A second important quality is being an independent thinker. In reference to the project example mentioned above an effective follower would be the person who would think outside the box for a solution...

...has two dimensions, each a measure of sociability. Group The group dimension describes how strongly people are bonded together. At one end there are distinct and separated individuals, perhaps with common reason to be together though with less of a sense of unity and connection. At the other end, people have a connected sense of identity, relating more deeply and personally to one another. They spend more time together and have stable relationships. When people group together, then laws are more easily defined and policed. For society to survive when bonds are weaker and central control is less possible, individuals must necessarily display self-restraint. In management, low group does not manage resources, whilst high group does. Grid The grid dimension describes how different people are in the group and how they take on different roles. At one end of this spectrum people are relatively homogeneous in their abilities, work and activity and can easily interchange roles. This makes them less dependent on one another. At the other end, there are distinct roles and positions within the group with specialization and different accountability. There are also different degrees of entitlement, depending on position and there may well be a different balance of exchange between and across individuals. This makes it advantageous to share and organize together. In management, low group does not manage needs, whilst high grid does. The model The model is a two-by-two table...

...reactions. Values are also considered psychological objects that we cannot see or touch, but are considered physical objects (Posner, 2010). Types of values include ethical or moral values, personal values, or core values (Fiset, 2007). “Values, personal values, and core values all refer to the same thing” (Best of Time Management, 2008). Values are used by individuals and organizations. “Using values help individuals and organizations energize everything concerned with them.

They learn from their parents, teachers, and other influential individuals in their life. Values can reflect the values of the place where an individual live. Values may change some, but they last a lifetime (Best of Time Management, 2008). Everyone have values that determine their decisions and guide their lives. Individuals may dedicate or give up their entire life to pursue their values (Posner, 2010).
