Essays on Adaptation

According to the Betty Neuman's theory, a human being is an open system which interacts with both internal and external environments (Alligood, 2014). In addition, a human is always exposed to constant stressors and he/she must move in the direction where there is holistic stability. This theory views both environments as stressors which a person is exposed to on a daily basis (Sitzman & Eichelberger, 2015). In accordance with Betty Neuman's theory, the external factor which affects the health of Mr. Reynolds include the state of being hospitalized, being a widower, living in isolation and environmental risk factors for falls. ...

Adaptability has become one of the most crucial skills that today’s employers look for in their potential employees. It is so because of the highly unpredictable nature of the work environment as people seek to innovate, improve, grow and greater efficacy. (University of Leeds, 2014). Adaptability has the benefits of harnessing hidden talents in the workforce and in so doing, contribute to a greater skilled workforce. On the other hand, inadaptability provides the disadvantage of an inflexibility of the workforce. Instead of uncovering new skills within the existing workforce, it creates a gap and makes them lose out ...

Introduction

Maslow calls resilience “ordinary magic.” But in reality, there is nothing magic at all about resilience. Resilience is not even a natural human intact or behavior, it is one that is learned over time and influenced by one’s environment. People are not born naturally resilient. The behavior is an adaptation necessary from their surroundings as they grow and change. Simply, Resilience is a learned behavior.

Infants are not naturally resilient

Starting at the beginning of our life, in infancy, individuals are not naturally resilient. Take for example infants. Infants have a wonderful ability to adapt to their environment, to change and move according ...

Project 1: Evaluation Plan

Evaluation Method For a favorable assessment of this QI initiative, the quality control department proposes the utilization of the formative evaluation (FE) approach. There are four main types of FE analyses that can result in an exhaustive evaluation of this program, namely developmental, implementation, progress, and interpretive assessments. For instance, implementation-focused analysis evaluates differences between plan execution and implementation. Here, the sources of data include stakeholder interviews, focus group discussions, observations, and patient charts (McGowan, Cusack, & Poon, 2008). Contrarily, progress analysis concentrates on progress towards improvement and implementation at first intervention. The analysis considers clinical performance data on process ...

The systems that can adapt in reaction to unanticipated external disturbances and events during their operation are called autonomous systems . These systems have capability of self-adaptation, self-configuration, self-monitoring, tuning, and other kinds of adjustment without requiring external control input . Autonomous systems are also referred to as self-managed systems due to their independence from external controls. These systems are built such that their components satisfy the design intent in the presence of small perturbations, external disturbances, noise, or other environmental changes. In realm of control systems theory, autonomous systems carry the similar concept mentioned above. Talking in terms of state ...

Abstract

The ecological settings in an ecosystem change from time to time. The changes in the ecological settings are brought about by a plethora of factors. Through evolution, the organisms that live in the ecosystem also change to adapt to the aforementioned ecological changes. The adaptation of the organisms to the ecological changes yields variations because different organisms and even organisms of the same species are exposed to the elements to different levels. Man has a significant role to play in the ecological changes. Through his economic activities, the effect on ecosystems has been both positive and negative. Urbanization as ...

Climate change poses many risks to the lives of children. Because of the increase in temperature and extreme weather conditions brought by climate change, many communities are expected to suffer from food and water scarcity and perilous diseases and health complications. More disasters and humanitarian crises would bring long-term displacements and disruption to educational and economic activities (UNICEF, p.8). Given this situation, the future of children at the worldwide scale remains under peril. Governments and other agencies concerned on the welfare of children must do something to address this worsening situation, or the children will pay the price. Climate ...

Contrasting Two Cultures with a Model of Culture

The model of culture to be used in this part of the paper is Professor Geert Hofstede’s Model of National Cultures.

He was a consultant working with IBM in the 1970s and 1980s, and thus he was able to observe various workplace cultures around the world (Geert Hofstede: National Culture). Originally, he came up with four dimensions of culture along which behaviors could be linked and thereafter analyzed. The original dimensions are Individualism-Collectivism, Uncertainty Avoidance, Power Distance ( ...

The Main Features of Introverts' behavior in the social environment

As is known, introversion is one of the most common categories or indicators to measure personality traits. Introverts are people whose personality traits are very different from those of other people, who can also be called extroverts. Introverts tend to accumulate their energy and direct it to their inner world, while extroverts waste their energy on the interaction with the outside world. If an extrovert needs a constant dialogue with the people, an introvert can successfully do without it. An introvert is capable of minimal contact, which is also necessary, but it happens rarely and only in the companies ...

Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of William Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing is true to the characters, plot, and language of the original play. However, it is not just a flat, uninspiring copy. Instead, it builds on Shakespeare's language and the play's cast of characters with the addition of cinematography, sound, and other elements. The effectiveness of these elements is especially prevalent in the early part of act 1, scene 1, where Benedict and Beatrice trade barbs after Claudio and Hero have been introduced. The effective use of sound and blocking in this scene serves to highlight how others view Benedict ...

I have selected the evolutionary psychology perspective to explain human behavior, including my own behavior. Most of our behavior develop when we encounter certain situations that affect survival. These adaptation mechanisms evolve through natural selection. Only people who exhibit the behavioral patterns that enable survival are selected to the subsequent generations, and with them, their psychological mechanism is also selected. According to the evolutionary psychology theory, the brain can be compared to a computer that receives information from the internal and external environment and generates an output behavior that enables survival in the environment. The cognitive programming of the ...

Reading the two articles offers an understanding of how the two variables are interrelated and the effect that they have on living organisms. The manner in which the arguments are constructed presents with various positives and negatives. This critique will highlight the positives and negatives with the help of literature from other scholars. Schulte ( ...

The Contingency Theory of Leadership was developed by the psychologist Fred Fiedler in the 1950s initially as a series of measurements and then formalized as a theory in the late 1960s (Fiedler, 1967).

The focus tends to be on the leader being able to correctly read the situation and adapt the style of leadership accordingly. The theory states that the effectiveness of a leader is dependent ...

As it is known, survival in adverse conditions that threaten the life of a living being rarely depends on only the strength or intelligence of this creature. When it comes to survival, the ability to protect oneself from danger and adaptation to the conditions that are dangerous for the lives and well-being of an organism play a very important role. In The Origin of Species, Darwin said that in nature those individuals survive who “are best fitted for their places in nature” (Darwin, 1861, p. 93). So, the initial stage of natural selection is the development of some traits ...
