Robert Agnew developed a model in criminology, General Strain Theory, which recounts that there exist numerous variables that influence the effect of strain on criminal activities.

Primarily, to enhance criminal coping, the convergence of individual factors is necessary (Agnew 2013). Coping skills and resources, peer influence, and lack of self-control are among variables that increase the likelihood of crime. Social structures in society are a major component in determining the level of crime in that ...

Owing to the fact that learning in an academic institution is a comprehensive process, students are exposed to a wide spectrum of stressors. This situation is mainly attributed to the fact that they are compelled to appreciate the content being put across by their teachers while handling their personal affairs simultaneously. According to the Journal of Organizational Behavior (2016), active stress development hinders the overall cognitive abilities of an individual thereby limiting their productivity. As such, students are less productive when they are exposed to the vulnerabilities of stress in their academic institutions. To prevent mediocre performance due to ...

Research article summary

Literature review summary Summarizing the relevant research related to the interconnection between eating disorders and parenting styles, the authors point to the general scientific interest for connections between types of parent-child bonds and overall psychological and mental implications for the child. The authors state that the existing research on long-term psychological implications of parental bonding style is predominantly retrospective, while the body of research shows the connection between overprotective parenting (especially from mothers) with eating disorders and particularly anorexia, bulimia and drive for thinness (Lobera et al., 2011, p. 729). At the same time, the reviewed research shows a ...

“Words/Meanings” from the Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer:

Foer’s article raised many interesting points. It is laid out rather like a dictionary, with a list of words followed by the author’s definitions and feelings around them. Some words were closely related to the topic of eating animals, for example, “Broiler Chickens,” and some more ambiguous, for example, “Desperation.” One of the most interesting words and meanings for me was “Suffering.” Foer discusses possible meanings behind this word and whether it is possible for someone to argue that animals don’t suffer. Suffering is a difficult term to define and to measure. The question becomes even ...

Instead, they planned for their ‘worst case scenario’: What if Mr. Wilkinson’s deployment was extended? That the Wilkinson’s openly discussed the possible risks and planned ahead for possible outcomes shows that they ...
