...Applying Watson’s Theory to Mind-Body-Spirit Dimensions Jean Watson’s theory of human caring is one that elevates nursing from being merely a clinical experience to becoming an intersection with the patient that affects the patient deeply in all three dimensions—the mind, body, and spirit. In order to achieve this three-pronged impact, the nurse must create caring-healing moments with the patient. As Watson (2006, p. 51) points out, “The whole caring-healing consciousness is contained within a single caring moment…Caring consciousness transcends time, space, and physicality—that is, caring goes beyond the given moment, and situation, and informs the future experiences of practitioner and patient.” Watson (2006, p. 51) contends that through these caring-healing moments, the patient’s human dignity is preserved, and the relationship between patient and nurse is marked by integrity. The application of Watson’s theory has resulted in remarkable successes in terms of healing patients, but it is problematic because of the difficulty in measuring intangible qualities such as mental and spiritual dimensions of healing. It is important for nurses to have access to assessment tools that can assist them in evaluating clients in various stages of health, illness, stress, and life so that Watson’s theory can be applied accordingly and its results can be aptly measured. Two such tools are the Spiritual Involvement and Beliefs Scale and the Hassles and Uplifts Scale. Each tool...

...John Watson I was very intrigued by John Watson’s overall appreciation for psychology. His appreciation for the mind and its processes are noteworthy when portraying behaviorism as a prominent part of psychology. His noteworthy findings landed him the title as, “the father of behaviorism”. With his appreciation of the science he was able to develop a school, known as the school of behaviorism. There, through his behaviorist approach, Watson conducted research on animal behavior, child rearing, and advertising. In addition to his research he conducted the controversial experiment known as the “Little Albert”. He wanted to study the external characteristics of the human mind based on behavior. According to John Watson, psychology should be the science of noticeable behavior. In 1803 he conducted the controversial “little Albert” experiment with a graduate student by the name of Rosalie Rayner. They familiarized a small child to fear a white rat. They consummated this by continually combining the white rat with a lurid, fearsome clanking noise. They also were able to validate that this terror could be universal to other white, hairy objects. After such experiments, Watson set the stage for behaviorism, which soon rose to dominate psychology. His view of behaviorism was considered essential and was known for its risky anti-mentalism, its essential decrease of thinking to implied response, and its dense and somewhat basic dependence on accustomed reactions. Even with all the diverse...

...Junyu Huang Professor Li WR097 O1 24 November 2012 Timing Bomb -An Analysis of “Montana 1948: A Novel” by Larry Watson The novel Montana 1948, written by Larry Watson, depicts complicated conflicts between family relationship and society responsibility which happened in the family Hayden family in Montana, with a 15-year-old boy David, his father Wesley, uncle Frank and grandfather Julian. The story of conflicts is aroused by the exposure of Frank’s crimes of sexual assaulting Indian girls and finally comes to his death. The author impressively conveys how a single character, Frank, messes up a huge family, just like a bomb blows up and ruins the Haydens’ peace, honor and happiness. Frank is originally presented as a hidden timing bomb – no one yet knows its existence and when it will explode. The author paves the way of conflicts in the very beginning of the novel, where David describes Frank – “handsome”, “a star athlete in high school and college” and “a genuine war hero” (24). Just as what David comments on Frank, Frank is “completely with decorations and commendations”(24) that he seems to be such a super perfect person way better than Wesley, which hints Julian’s Partiality to Frank. Also such Frank is shown as an implicit trigger of the future family conflicts, since it is the perfect image of Frank that its molder will lead to a serious consequence and at the moment barely anyone knows Frank’s true look under his masquerade. And soon the bomb is displayed to Wesley...

...A Study in Scarlet and Pink A successful adaption of a text does not have to follow the text exactly as written. There is an importance to maintaining the main concepts and characters in the story, such as in the mystery, A Study in Scarlet by Conan Doyle. The main characters, Dr. John Watson and Sherlock Holmes should be portrayed correctly; the type of crime, and the search for the criminal should remain the same. There is a higher importance for an adaption to have more excitement and interesting twist, makes a more successful mystery than the original text. Any movie or show should have the effect of people having a connection. The effects have being so embedded to the film that the audience feels a part of the mystery. In movies and shows, there are basic needs for a good director, good actors or actresses, and a good setting like any other normal movie to make a successful adaption. In the short story, A Study in Scarlet by Sir Conan Doyle, the mystery has almost linear storyline with an episode of flashback. The story is in first narrative person, through the eyes of Dr. Watson. It first talks about Dr. John Watson in Afghanistan war as an army doctor. He gets shot in the shoulder.

In my opinion, Sherlock Holmes positively made the wrong decision. In the first place, James Ryder should not have listened to Catharine Cusack. Ryder needs to think for himself and if he does not, he will be in a hole of guiltiness. They stole a carbuncle, a blue jewel, from the Countess.
