Vestibular Projections

Vestibular projections in the central nervous system consist of vestibular end organs which communicate with the brain stem and the cerebellum via the vestibular branch of the eighth cranial nerve. These nerves are also connected to the auditory fibers. Thus damage caused to these structures can cause both vestibular and auditory disturbances. The vital function of the vestibular system is to coordinate head and eye movements. The ability of the eye to stay focused on an object even while the head is moving is brought about by the vestibular system.

Vestibular Cochlear Nerve

The American president is aware that the resources that the biggest economy in the world possesses, nevertheless, are not limitless. This is why it ...

Quasi-experiments are research designs that attempt to mimic an experimental design. However, the researcher cannot control the assignment of study participants to groups: a key feature for true experiments (Wadsworth, n.d.). This paper explores quasi-experiments as a research design.

Advantages of Quasi-experiments Firstly, quasi-experiments, as the name suggests, are not true experiments.

Therefore, they allow the researcher to obtain stronger conclusion compared to when they conduct a pure correlational research. Secondly, quasi-experiments are useful in circumstances when conducting a true experiment is either infeasible or very ...

In spite of the fact that the Declaration of Independence affirmed that “All men are created equal”, due to the institution of slavery, the above-indicated statement was not grounded in law in the United States until after the Civil War (and, credibly, not completely fulfilled for many years thereafter). The highly-acclaimed case known as Brown v. Board of Education was indeed the name which was given to five separate cases that were heard by the United States Supreme Court in 1954 regarding school desegregation. Despite the fact that all these cases were different, there were raised varied potent and ...
