These effects include depression, posttraumatic stress disorder, anxiety, learned helplessness, resentment, and low self-esteem. However, no kind of treatment has been empirically validated to be effective. One of the available treatments for the negative effects of spousal abuse is known as the forgiveness therapy. ...

The article entitled “Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior” written by Amy Chua and published online in The Wall Street Journal proffered pertinent issues relative to the alleged superiority of Chinese mothers in raising their children. Chua contended that Chinese parents apply a significantly anti-thetical parenting style, as compared to Western parents, that focuses on three perspectives: (1) not being overly anxious on the children’s self-esteem; (2) believing that children owe parents everything; and (3) parents know what is best for their children and therefore decide for them, especially to the extent that children’s preferences and desires are overridden. ...

According to Milgram’s (1963) findings authorities have substantial power over individuals, and his findings can explain the nature of the holocaust as a consequence of enforced obedience. Blass (1999) argues that obedience rates have not declined since the original experiment, so any attempt to reproduce the experiment will probably result in similar findings. While moral convictions change over time, obedience remains consistent, so it is possible to conclude that people lose their moral convictions and personal decision-making abilities once they are exposed to pressure from the authorities.
The experiment was repeated several times in different societies with different ...
