...The normal cognitive things an infant can do is that they do more than double their weight from birth, they try and be dependent on their own while trying to walk or crawl, as we all like to say is a babies milestones can be flexible, and that is a ton of things we all consider normal at this age and they will grow at their own pace. Early childhood They establish a good set of hat concepts principle and facts are, and the way that their bodies change and grow, but move too, also they believe that making relationships is normal for early childhood. The middle childhood time is where they should be able to have learned reasoning abilities, but also early child awareness, and how much information their brains can hold; they also develop the awareness of learning and strategies, writing and reading and learning how to use a computer at this point. Early adolescent They consider it to be a time for a lot of changes for them emotionally, physically, mentally where boys start to grow hair on their faces and pubic area while girls grow pubic hair and breasts, and start menstruating. This is considered normal. Adulthood What we consider normal is the physical and emotional connection we got to are partners where there is a lot of change emotionally and they develop change and values, but also attitudes that can change things with wanting the things we want in life like babies and marriage, and what they believe about their sexuality is...

...Biology Research Paper 2 Lifestyle and Diseases Lifestyle diseases are caused by the way we live our lives. A lifestyle disease is defined mainly as it being a disease that is associated with the way that a person or people live. Lifestyle disease increase and appear more frequently in more industrial countries. They occur when people have poor food habits which affects our overall health. Lifestyle disease are not caused by viruses or bacteria, but are caused by someone’s unhealthy habits. Some lifestyle diseases are some forms of cancer, but most are Heart diseases, diabetes, and stokes. Heart disease is any of several abnormalities that affect the heart muscle or the blood vessels of the heart. They are the number one cause of mortality and morbidity in the US. There are a couple dozen forms of this lifestyle disease. Heart disease can lead to congestive heart failure, a condition in which the heart cannot pump enough blood meet the demand of the body. Diabetes is a disease that affects sugars used by the body. There are four main types of diabetes. Type l diabetes is also caed insulin-dependent diabetes, juvenile onset diabetes, brittle diabetes, and ketosis prone diabetes. Type ll diabetes is also called non-insulin dependent diabetes, adult onset diabetes, ketosis-resistant diabetes and stable diabetes. Type lll or gestational diabetes, occurs in...

...Behavioral Influences Motivation is a term that can be tied to many different genres in a person’s life, from sports, school, religion, the workforce, even in oneself. Motivation is defined as an act or an instance of motivating, or providing reason to act in a certain way. This concept is the cynosure behind Victor Harold Vroom Expectancy Theory; he believed an employee’s level of effort and motivation are based on the product of three key terms Expectancy, Instrumentality, and Valence (Vroom, 1964,16). Victor incorporated each of these segments to prove that one would perform better if one saw a benefit or avail in the presence of work. I plan to tie his theory and its sections to help supervisor A improve the employee’s work ethic to meet the new production process at the audio products company. The audio product company has characterized its company by creating high production standards and goals to achieve the best audio products in the industry. In striving to maintain its goals it incorporated new production process, this process has been affecting the team of supervisor A production ability. Different employees seem to be facing various conflicts with the new process; some feel as though they can’t become successful with more hand dexterity. Other feel it’s not worth putting in the extra effort for the goal, and last are the ones who can meet the requirements but feel no concern or motivation to achieve the goal. I believe each one of Vroom 3 part theory...

...Gellie Vale T. Managbanag March 6, 2015 Re.Ed. – 4 MWF 5:00-6:00PM Mrs. Maria Antonette Dandan Recollection Evaluation A. Comments and Suggesstions on the ff. during the Recollecion: 1. Speaker Our speaker during the recolection is Fr. Ricardo Pitogo. Fr. Ric talked about what was part him, he did speak from the heart and not simply from the slide shows. Fr. Ric is just as a shopkeeper that has more merchandise in the back room than he has on display in front of the store, he knows more about everything on the power point. He has a comforting degree of confidence. His words were glorifying to God and edying to us. He didn’t become negative or judgmental when talking about other people, or religions, or churches, or anything else. Even if he was communicating a negative experience, he chose the words carefully that it he did’t give offense unnecessarily. 2. Topic The topic was all about how are we going to communicate to God and how to strengthen our relationship with Him. We learned a lot from the lecture; different forms of prayer and communication to adore Him, praise Him, worship Him and get connected to Him. I have come intro realization and fully belivedthat in such dark times, one way of reminding ourselves that He is still there is by simply inviting Him using simple words such as ‘God, I need You in my life.’ Communication is essential when forming a healthy connection and relationship with God. We just need...

...Structuration Theory (when was structuration theory developed) Google question In a number of articles in the late 1970s and early 1980s, culminating in the publication of The Constitution of Society in 1984, British sociologist Anthony Giddens developed the theory of structuration, which addressed fundamental problems in the social sciences in a way that was unconventional at the time.Dec 4, 2014 The theory of structuration is a social theory of the creation and reproduction of social systems that is based in the analysis of both structure and agents (see structure and agency), without giving primacy to either.

...Van Bawi Thawng 10/10/2014 Leadership to me means that a person is a role model and can provide a positive vision of the future. A leader is a person who can act properly around adults and without adults around. Leaders are people who can be positive even in the darkest situations. Leaders are able to be seen by the work they do, how they do that work and how they include others into doing that work. Leaders know how to collaborate with others to get specific challenges conquered. Leaders can also take control when needed to but won’t over power others when they are taking charge. Leaders can take criticism correctly and handle each situation with care, no matter how small. They also know how to be proper role models to those who are younger to them and they know how to respect those older than themselves. The qualities that I would be able to add to leadership would be positivity, honesty, loyalty, and an overall ambition to succeed. Being on leadership would not only help me become a better person but it would also influence me to get the people around me to become leaders just as well as me. Leaders aren’t made, they’re born and I believe I was born a leader. With my attitude and ambition I was not made to stand back and watch others take the lead. I am a leader and I will be able to show my skills and qualities throughout the leadership group. Leadership is important to me because it will basically shape my future. The way I learn and the way I will be able to teach...

...The theory I tested happened about four years ago when I started the Adkins diet. This diet restricts carbohydrates. You start out by allowing yourself only 20 grams of carbohydrates. I had to train my body to use fat for fuel instead of carbohydrates. Their search I learned while doing this diet was learning that by maintaining a low carbohydrate diet your body releases less insulin. This will cause your body to burn its own fat as fuel and makes you lose weight. Also while being on this diet I felt less cravings and I was not as hungry. When I was on this diet I followed other people on the website for Adkins and this made me realize I was researching myself as well as others following the diet. I believe my research with this diet would be a similar method as a psychologist would use because to me it was experimental and descriptive. An experimental psychologist studies the process of sensing, perceiving, learning and thinking. This was a learning experience for me. I had no idea how this diet was going to turn out. I ended up losing 80 pounds on this diet. After a year after stopping the Adkins diet I gained 50 pounds and I was getting depressed again so I decided to try another method. I was given the opportunity to do something different. I was a candidate for the gastric lap band so I decided to go for lap band surgery. I was tired of struggling with my weight and this is why I decided to do different approach. Gastric lap band surgery is having a band around the top of...

...My Theory: Stepping out in faith Pamela Hodge Psychology 201 October 24th 2010 Ann Flenner My Theory: Stepping out in faith In the first part of this year our 4 year old daughter was stung by a bee at preschool on her neck. She is not allergic to bees but I became worried when she developed a fever of 101, and swelling began to go from her neck to her cheek. I rushed her to her Doctor and she admitted her to the ICU unit at the hospital. The surgeons looked at her and said they may have to cut her neck and cheek open because she had developed Cellulites (sel-u-LI-tis), which is a common and potentially serious bacterial skin infection. Cellulite appears as a swollen, red area of skin that feels hot and tender, and it may spread rapidly. Being a woman of God the informal method I choose to use at this point was the bible. I called the members of our prayer team from our church and let them know how serious this was. The Dr’s at this point had stated antibiotics but after 5 hours stated she was not responding to the medicine. I have always believed in God’s promise to heal all of his children, so I stepped out in faith and relied on Gods ability to heal her. When our friends from church showed up our daughter had been totally lifeless and had not moved in a few hours. Pastor Tim walked into the room and laid his hand on her cheek which was so hot to touch he quickly removed it. He began to pray and placed his hand back on her face. At that moment we were all standing around...

...Excel Reflection: I learned how to write and use formulas in excel. You write formulas by first putting in an equal sign and then adding numbers and symbol. I also learned new ways to format my spreadsheet like merging cells and stuff like that. This program can help you organize better because it forces you to display the information logically or it doesn’t make sense. Also it helps you to calculate because the computer is doing all the math so you are less likely to do mistakes. It is important to learn how to create spreadsheets because your job in the future may include organizing information into a spreadsheet. I think Excel’s most powerful feature is the formulas because people don’t want to make mistakes while calculating. In excel the computer does the map so it will not make mistakes. Examples of Excel in your job is when you have to organize prices for make a budget for the company. Excel could help you in to future because your job could include organizing budgets or information. Also it could help me because I could get a job easier with my technology background. I think Excel is an important program to be taught in school because it helps you learn to be organized. It also needs to be taught because things are becoming less paper and more technology. I didn’t have any problems doing Excel this year because this is my third year doing Excel. I would rate myself a 7 because I am pretty good at Excel but I do not know everything about Excel. Another reason I gave...

...Porter’s article suggests a reinvention of the rhetorical canon of delivery for the digital age. Porter provides the reader with a brief history of delivery’s place in “traditional rhetoric” and argues for delivery as a form of techne. Porter then proposes a five part theoretical framework for “digital delivery,” consisting of “Body/Identity,” “Distribution/Circulation,” “Access/Accessability,” “Interaction/Interactivity,” and “Economics.” I really like how Porter explains delivery that has evolved with the technology in the modern day. He explains that the gestures you make, your tone of voice, using pauses with your speech and perhaps a restrained tone will all help to convey your meaning and are all things that you don't usually see or hear online. I related to this a lot because as I am freelance visual designer, I have to present a lot to the client and marketing team, using hand gestures, body language helps me to convey the message to the clients more efficiently. He further suggests that in the new era (digital age), however, delivery is about the medium through which the message is given. There are so many different forms of writing online today. For example if we take Twitter, this is the most recent form of writing which lot of people are still getting used to it. Twitter uses a lot of hash tags and ampersand symbols, which never would have appeared before in writing, but is rhetorically correct for Twitter because they link to other information, allowing for...

...Economic Interest Theory and Regulation The theory suggests that regulations are set of policies driven by forces of supply and demand. The government is placed on the supply side while the interest groups on the demand side. The theory suggests that regulation is developed by the industry and that the objective of regulations is to create advantages to the industry concerned. This theory was developed in 1971 by Chicago theory of government and the economic theory of regulation (J. G. Stigler, The Theory of economic regulation, n.d. pg 4). Characteristics of economic interest theory The theory suggests that it is the industry which designs the regulations to be adopted in the market. The industry sets the regulations for the benefit of its members (J. Hertog, General Theories of Regulation, 1999, pg236). It also operates these regulations and there are no external mechanisms involved. The government allows the stakeholders in the industry to participate in decision making concerning economic matters that affect the sectors of the economy. The theory suggests that the representative groups in the government decision making should be small in size so as to reduce the running costs. The theory suggests that producers can organize themselves more readily than consumers. It suggests that producers can easily regulate their activities faster compared to the consumers. The theory suggests the phenomena of cross-subsidization. This is where regulations which have been put across...

...Theories of Ethics and Social Responsibility Gina Leigh Moore University of Phoenix Instructor: Dr. Nancy Kennedy ETH/316 June 24, 2014 To gain a solid understanding of ethical and social responsibility, one should begin by comparing the similarities and differences between virtue theory, utilitarianism, and deontological ethics. Once one gains a better insight of the similarities and differences, one can begin to actually comprehend the important roles ethics and social responsibility play in one’s personal and professional success. This essay describes some of the similarities and differences in how each theory addresses ethics and morality. This essay also includes an example of a personal experience to help explain the relationship between virtue, values, and moral concepts as they relate to one of the three theories. To begin, some the differences and similarities of the three theories must be described. Virtue theory is identified as an ethical theory which is person based rather than action based. It emphasizes one’s virtues, or moral character. In contrast, deontology emphasizes one’s duties or rules and consequentialism emphasizes the consequences of one’s actions. However, this essay will only be discussing one form of consequentialism- utilitarianism. Utilitarianism is defined as the theory in which the right and wrong of an action is determined by its usefulness in bringing the most happiness to those affected by it. While the differences between the...

...1.0 Introduction Organizational systems, such as companies and value chains, have been studied in order to enhance the performance of entirety. System theory may help with the analysis of the real problems as well as finding the solutions. Based on the Applied System Theory “A system consist of element s discernible within the total reality (universe), defined by the aims of the investigator. All these elements have at least one relationship with another elements within the system and may have relationships with other elements within total reality” (Dekkers, 2015: 16). As the running of the stimulation of the QPQ company, the concept of Applied System Theory has been applied to the practice. The experiment was divided into two round, which were the trial run and actual run. The processes and the output differed with each other. With the comparison, problem in the systems have emerged and with the analysis of the deficiency, measures have been taken to achieve the development of performance. This report will firstly clarify the details of the trial run and actual run of the QPQ company with data collected, following by the analysis of the problem based on the system approaches raised by Applied System Theory. As the final part of the report, solutions and the recommendation of how to solving the system deficiency will be presented. 2.0 The summary of experiments 2.1 The trial run There were 11 people attended the experiments totally with the production of one car, but...

...Modern portfolio theory From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "Portfolio analysis" redirects here. For theorems about the mean-variance efficient frontier, see Mutual fund separation theorem. For non-mean-variance portfolio analysis, see Marginal conditional stochastic dominance. Modern portfolio theory (MPT) is a theory of finance which attempts to maximize portfolio expected return for a given amount of portfolio risk, or equivalently minimize risk for a given level of expected return, by carefully choosing the proportions of various assets. Although MPT is widely used in practice in the financial industry and several of its creators won a Nobel memorial prize for the theory,[1] in recent years the basic assumptions of MPT have been widely challenged by fields such as behavioral economics. MPT is a mathematical formulation of the concept of diversification in investing, with the aim of selecting a collection of investment assets that has collectively lower risk than any individual asset. That this is possible can be seen intuitively because different types of assets often change in value in opposite ways.[2] For example, to the extent prices in the stock market move differently from prices in the bond market, a collection of both types of assets can in theory face lower overall risk than either individually. But diversification lowers risk even if assets' returns are not negatively correlated—indeed, even if they are positively correlated.[3] More technically, MPT models...
