...SELF-REGULATORY SKILLS OF THE 2nd YEAR BSN STUDENTS By ANNA C. BOCAR Abstract Lack of self-regulatory skills appears to be a potential identification for students to fail from their class activities. Educators should help the students to value learning skills. Students should have to be more responsible on managing their own learning to become more strategic and productive learners. They can be more aware only of the strong and weak points in their self-regulations can have a constructive feedback after their self evaluations. The descriptive survey was the main method utilized in this study. The substantial numbers of samples are purposively selected to employ the processes of collecting the data. As manifested by the self evaluation of 2nd year nursing students, among the six self regulatory skills five of them namely : metacognition, self concept, self monitoring, strategy formation and volition control are practiced by the respondents at majority of the time, however it was found that metacognition was seen above these five skills with 3.14 factor average. The investigation also revealed that as regard to motivation the respondents’ practiced this attitude generally at great extent even though the factor average is 1.89 on the reason that the inventory statements are stated in its negative manner.

...Narcissistic Personality An anonymously-written famous quote goes, “In order to love others, we must first love ourselves.” For some people, loving themselves may have been taken to another level. There are individuals who can be described as “full of themselves” or have excessively loved themselves and may seem to have forgotten the “love others” part of the quote. These people are what others may tag as narcissists. But, there is more to narcissism than merely being full of one’s self. Havelock Ellis (1898, as cited in Campbell & Foster, 2007) coined the term “narcissus-like” after the Greek myth of Narcissus, who rejected the efforts shown by a nymph named Echo and had eventually led him to fall in love with himself. He came up with the...

The Ecological Model of Sensory Modulation, described by Miller, subscribes to the belief that sensory modulation as interlinked, rather than linear.34 Central to this model is the relationship between the internal and external factors; with SMD resulting from the interaction between several factors.34 The factors include contextual factors (culture, environment, relationships and tasks); and individual symptoms (sensation, emotion and attention).34 The child’s responses are analysed within the context of their external life.

Introduction Most definitions of leadership share the common assumption that leaders influence subordinate's task and social behaviors (Yukl, 1992). However, the leadership literature, in general, has paid little attention to understanding the intervening mechanisms by which leaders influence followers. Instead, much of the research has focused on the relationship between a leader's behavior or traits and subordinates' satisfaction, behavior, and performance (Lord & Maher, 1991). In the present paper, we attempt to partially bridge this gap by focusing on two key intervening mechanisms Ð values and self-concepts Ð that link leader characteristics and important outcomes. We...

...two essential understandings: attachment and brain development. Early Childhood Education Journal, 26(4), 267-270. Early childhood development begins as an infant. A parent should love and have supportive interaction with their child to enhance the development. A child learns more and is willing to engage more when they are shown love. Attachment from the parents allows brain development. This article has been in the peer-reviewed process which is a collection of scholars. Martinez-Pons, M. (2002). Parental influences on children’s academic self-regulatory development. Theory Into Practice, 41(2), 126. Parents play a tremendous part in early childhood development. Parents are social models for their children which can begin children’s self-regulatory development. Children learn by observing their parents and/or siblings which allows them to be models. If the parents are unsure of how to promote self-regulatory development they can be taught how to enable their children goals.

...The reading chosen for this critical review is Chapter 2-Regulation of health and safety management: a developmental perspective from textbook Regulating Work Risks: A comparative study of Inspection Regimes in Times of Change by Walters, D. Johnstone, R. Frick, K. Quinlan, M. Gringras, G. & Thebaud-Mony. This chapter discusses the development and contexts of regulation and regulatory inspection of health and safety at work. It focuses on the range of issues concerning regulation of health and safety and its management and the consequences of these developments for regulatory surveillance of OHS in advanced market economies. The chapter start off by outlining the path of OHS regulation from its origins to the present, focusing on the approaches mandating its management and how the introduction of the Robens Report changed the perception towards OHS and its influence to regulations in different jurisdiction. This report was a modification of the regulatory model towards process based regulation with a focus on a unified OHS legislation, development of a more effective self-regulating system and OHS management in organizations. The chapter ends off by examining challenges in effectively delivering mandated OHS management in workplaces changes. The approach that the authors used in writing this chapter is by examining the implications of the shift from specification to process based regulation, and recognises the fact that attention has been increasingly directed to the...

Intense and disorganized emotion) Instrumental aggression: Begins with competition or the desire for some object or status possessed by another person. Goal = obtain desired object. No intent to harm, although indifferent. Violence as a Choice: The proximal cause of violence is a decision to act violently .The decision is influenced by a host of biological, psychological, and social factors .Neurological insult, hormonal abnormality, psychosis, personality disorder, exposure to violent models, attitudes that condone violence. Cognitive Models of Aggression: Most research supports the notion that human aggression is primarily learned (early learning and socialization). Hostile attribution bias: Individual’s prone to violence are more likely to interpret ambiguous actions as hostile and threatening Cognitive Self-Regulation and Violence: Self-regulatory mechanisms - (Social learning and social cognition theory).Weak cognitive control can facilitate impulsive actions, thus in certain circumstances our actions are directed by external situation instead of cognitive.

...Nursing Theory Comparison Jo Castro, Jennifer Shaver, Damiana Balas-Irimescu, Tami Maddocks NUR/403 Theories and Models of Nursing Practice October 20, 2014 Tricia Proctor Nursing Theory Comparison Nursing theory exists to provide nurses with a framework for practice. Merging the science of theory with the caring of people has become more than just a profession. It is an art. Nursing theorists have worked to develop thinking pathways, aligning themselves with nursing’s unique perspective, in order to holistically address the needs of patients. Using different theories will allow the nurse to examine patient scenarios from different points of view. Orem’s framework focuses, largely, on the patient’s independence. Three theories exist within her framework. The most common one is known as the Self-Care-Deficit Nursing Theory (SCDNT). Self-care is a regulatory function involved in the promoting of life, health, development, and well-being. Deficits exist when the self-care demand exceeds the patient’s ability to meet it (Banfield, 2011). Neuman’s model, on the other hand, encourages the nurse to view the client as a system. Neuman’s proposed system is comprised of five variables that constantly interact with the environment. The variables include: physiological, psychological, sociocultural, developmental, and spiritual. The nurse must examine the five dimensions and identify stressors within them that could threaten the health of the patient. Interventions are focused...

...addressed like lack of face-to-face interaction of faculty and students and the responsibility of learning now shifted to the learners. Also the faculty’s role changed to content providers and facilitator of learning. The students, faculties and educators should equip themselves to adapt to new roles to harness the benefits of using Technology in education. Many research studies highlight the inadequacies in e-learning systems resulting in disengagement of students from the learning process [1]. The researchers are skeptical about the self directed abilities of learners and report that research gap exists towards finding solutions to these problems [11]. This paper introduces a self regulating e-learning framework that provides solutions to the problems discussed. It is based on a Continuous Improvement Model as proposed by Deming who was instrumental for introducing TQM, a quality management concept in USA and Japan in the post war world. The Model facilitates faculties to design and deploy their course content in an e-learning website. Provisions are given to collect and analyze feedbacks...

I will discuss examples of how provisions from the American Nurses Association’s code of ethics influence my practice. I will also discuss four professional traits, outlined in the American Nurses Association’s code of ethics, that I will bring to an interdisciplinary team of healthcare professionals. I will identify a nursing theory that has influenced my professional practice and how this theory fits into my professional practice. I will discuss how the contributions of a historical nursing figure has influenced my professional practice. To conclude my paper, I will discuss real-world scenarios where I have safeguarded the principles of Beneficence and respect for autonomy of actual patients. Professional Mission Statement 2 Professional Nursing Organizations (PNO)/Board of Nursing (BON) To begin my mission statement, I will explain the functional differences between regulatory agencies (e.g. BON) and professional nursing organizations (PNO) as it pertains to my professional nursing practice. A regulatory agency regulates nursing practices while a professional nursing organization advocates for nurses. An example of a regulatory agency is the National Council of State Boards of Nursing, which provides education, research and service for nursing (National Council of State Boards of Nursing, 2016).
