Introduction
People often associate art with beauty such that art forms appeal to the audience because of their aesthetic qualities. Nonetheless, as we explore various theories, concepts, and approaches in art design, we discover that beauty is diverse. As the famous saying goes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, which means that the standard and quality of beauty differs based on varying constructs and views of beauty. The conflict and exchange between perfection and imperfection, for instance, illustrates the variability of beauty as a construct in art design (Bailey & Peoples, 2010). Beauty is not merely a creation or ...

Dissertation: Are cognitive distortions the answer for the persistence of depression in treated Celiac disease patients?

Abstract
The research suggests that Celiac patients are heavily influenced by their diagnosis. Anxiety, depression, and social isolation are all common features that sufferers of Celiac disease share. The disease functions in such a way that it forces the sufferer to remove him or herself from the social act of eating: he or she is no longer able to really be a part of the social gatherings that include food (Addolorato, 2001). However, this separation is largely invisible; many people do not realize that Celiac patients face any trouble at all in social situations. In this discussion, an investigation ...

Introduction

Haydn’s major keyboard works are sonatas, generally representing his growth from his early years until 1794 with completion of his final three sonatas.

Improving Quality of Health Care While Cutting On Costs

Method
This paper will make use of mixed methods of data collection. There is a growing awareness in the benefits of merging qualitative and quantitative methods to health research. Mixed methods research is also fitting when assessing complex interventions in healthcare. A mixed methods approach yields to more comprehensive analysis of data unlike either purely qualitative or quantitative methodologies. The logic for utilizing mixed methods is based on the assumption that the weaknesses in one method will be offset by the strengths of the other (Farquhar, et.al, 2011). Furthermore, there is evidence that mixed methods research is also increasing ...

Black Boys and underachievement: Myth or Reality?

Introduction
Since the decade of the 1960s, the families of black Caribbean boys have been particularly concerned about the academic performance of their children. The reason for this is due to an apparent gap between these Afro-Caribbean children and other students, especially white ones (National Union of Teachers | NUT | The Teachers' Union, 2007). Today, their scholastic success at the attainment at General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) remains well below the national average. In 2006, 44.9 percent of these children gained five good GCSEs or their equal compared to 57.3 percent of white students (DfES, 2007). The figures ...
