Multivariate Analysis

Guillaume, Knippenberg, and Brodbeck (2014) theorize that social classes or groups are an important starting point to determine the effects of societal diversity on individuals’ attitudes and behavior. People with similar backgrounds whether social, economic, or cultural are more comfortable and more likely to perform better both psychologically and behaviorally (Guillaume et al., 2014). Besharov (2014) states organizational identification occurs when members place a high value on organizational membership and define themselves accordingly. Additionally, creativity, helping behaviors, job satisfaction, and social support are other actions, which contribute to defining classes or groups (Besharov, 2014).
Organization identification benefits are fleeting ...

IS THE GDP OVERRATED?

Introduction
Gross Domestic Product (the GDP) is accepted as one of the main economic indicators. By definition, the GDP is the sum of the values of all the goods and services produced in specific time period in a country by using the current prices. We consider that high amount of production allows us to build a well-designed civilization. If a country can produce more than the needs of the citizens and export the excess production to the other countries, then this country can reach the desired goals. In another word, the GDP is generally accepted as an indicator of well-being. Most ...

Introduction

Thesis Statement
Facing the challenges imposed by the Islamic tradition and the social changes generated by the modern society, Turkish families are in a phase of transition, in which the women’s role becomes more pregnant. Although there are encountered various difficulties in finding work and the employment in Turkey is still far from being equal between men and women, the recent trends and the changes in the social structure indicate that women tend to emancipate, jumping from their traditional role linked to the household, outside this universe, by finding jobs and becoming financially independent.

Abstract

The research proposal outlines the significance and need for adopting alternate sources of energy. The most abundantly available and inexhaustible source of energy is the solar energy. Sun provides 100,000 TW of energy to the earth which is much greater than the present amount of energy consumption which is 13 TW (Gratzel, 2007). A lot of research has been carried out to trap the solar energy and convert it to other usable forms. Though it is quite a difficult task, advancements in technology have enabled trapping of this natural resource possible. Our present energy needs could be met if ...

A General Framework
I have always been interested in the role of women in different regions of the world, especially in the Middle East and Asian regions. I was always fascinated by the ways in which women were treated in these parts of the world. This is because women have been known to be discriminated against. This discrimination is seen when women are placed in servile positions rather than in positions of authority. I have always wondered what was the prevailing mindset that governed the way women were treated in these parts of the world. ...

Home working mums and information technology

Technology has become a vital tool in the day-to-day activities as its impact on the economy is being felt. Of all the advantages it has had on the population, technology has made life even better for women who are able to manage the numerous tasks they have by a click of a button. A woman is most probably the busiest in the current society. This is because of the domestic responsibilities at hand as well as the need to supplement on the family income. Technology has however come in handy and hence enabling a woman to manage both household chores as well as ...

Introduction

The consumption tendency of developed societies changes when they experience a financial crisis. This paper discusses the consumption habits of developed societies during the period when they experience a financial crisis. The way that developed countries handle a crisis varies. While some nations may favor austerity measures, others may opt for more investments by the national government. It is of interest to me to analyze what takes place at the household level. Would families prefer to keep their funds in their savings account? Or would they continue spending their disposable income? If the citizens do not spend, the economies may have a hard ...

Care giving for a patient living with dementia

Majority of patients suffering from dementia are cared for in community settings either by their spouse, children or significant others. Care giving has its merits and demerits on both the persons with dementia and on the caregivers. Whilst in some few cultures it is viewed in positive light and as something that brings satisfaction for the caregivers, care giving especially for the elderly is a strenuous responsibility and families which are involved in care giving feel this strain. Nevertheless, members who participate in giving care to those who are terminally ill must not let their burn out affect the quality ...

Abstract
The dominance of commercial technological innovation in the context of modern society has resulted in a form of technological dependence for some individuals, causing them to pay less regard to aspects of the physical world. Technological innovation has assumed a noteworthy role in the flow of our daily lives, such as through the methods we employ to maintain interpersonal connections. Numerous individuals are included in a matrix of connections facilitated by technological innovation and an increasingly digitalized culture; however, the vast amount of these affiliations can leave individuals the global community feeling subjectively void.

Gender discrimination is the maltreatment of an individual based on their sex. This form of discrimination most commonly affects women. It also may affect homosexual and transgendered men.

Gender discrimination takes the form of unequal pay for equal work, unwanted sexual advances, demands for sexual favors in exchange for workplace advancement, discrimination during pregnancy, and general unfavorable views towards women based on their roles as mothers.
Gender discrimination exists in even the most advanced, enlightened, and egalitarian ...

THE OXIDATION OF OLIVE OIL UNDER MICROWAVE HEATING

Chemistry: Research Proposal
Research is proposed to determine whether or not olive leaves are a good source of antioxidants. Reports of experiments to determine the effectiveness of natural plant extracts including olive leaf extracts have found that to be the case. The olive tree (Olea europaea) leaves are attractive because they “contain secoiridoids (oleuropein, ligstrosid, dimethyloleuropein, and oleoside), flavonoids (apigenins, kaempferol, leteolin), as well as phenolic compounds (caffeic acid, tyrosol, hydroxytyrosol).” (Rafiee et al., 2012, p. 1498) High content of antioxidant properties and total phenols have been determined from olive leaf extractions. (Rafiee et al., 2012;) Rafiee (et al., ...

That fateful night and how one abused man could be responsible for such a heinous crime

One late night in November of 1959, two peopled murdered a family of four in a small Kansas town. It was a robbery and although they could have left right away with the small change in their pockets, the family died. Discovering who actually pulled the trigger was a shock to many. It was not Richard Eugene Hickock, a pedophile and rapist, who ran through the house killing each victim one by one. It was the one who appeared gentle and shy; the rather artistic one who snapped in the last few minutes of the robbery. Someone whom even Truman Capote was sympathetic towards. ...
