Essays on Likelihood

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. The concept is one of the leading models in this subject. Notably, the existence of a range of strains increases the likelihood of crime. 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 ...

Similar to other types of emergencies, disaster planning must also take into consideration the likelihood of a flu outbreak, which may, or may not be mitigated through the use of flu shots, which have been known to be unreliable in the past.

The Matching Hypothesis of individuals selecting a mate that is within a similar range of attractiveness as themselves is a justifiable phenomenon. The more individuals share in common the more successful they are likely to be in their relationships. When a not-so-attractive man is seen with a gorgeous woman, one must assume that the less attractive individual, is able to make up for his shortcomings with other assets, such as money, power, or other desirable characteristics. Relationships outside the matching hypothesis seem to be less ideal due to the sense that each partner may feel that they are not ...

Introduction

The desire to conform to the norms is what makes the foundation of a civilized society. Social order, for instance, is a desired attribute that is founded on established written and unwritten rules that are being observed by most people within a society. Deviation from these established rules is considered as undesirable and people who deviate are considered as having abnormal qualities or malfunctioning (Merton, 2002, p. 672). There are instances, however, wherein some people are observed to deviate from the standard pattern of human behavior. This deviation has captured the interest of many social scientists and have been ...

While there are many reasons why a young person might misuse drugs, the article focuses on “how the interplay of individual factors and social contact impact initiation of nonmedical prescription drug use” (Mui et al., 2013, p.2). More specifically, the authors of the article argues that the likelihood of a person misusing drugs depends on who introduces them to the drug in question as well as the environment they found themselves placed in (Mui et al., 2013). In this sense, the authors do not view drug abuse as an illness but as purposeful behavior for those found guilty of ...

Learning allows our brains to record and preserve beneficial behaviors and know how to avoid harmful ones. The consequences of the experiences we have or observe are stored in our memory as knowledge to influence our future behavior. The paper explores behavior change through a focus on the learning theories; classical and operant conditioning.

Operant Conditioning

It is a form of learning in which the response to a voluntary behavior influences whether or not the behavior will recur; this occurs through the use of reinforcements and punishment. Following the experiments of B. F. Skinner, we can conclude that a person or ...

Genetic counselling has been described as the process by which an individual fully understands and adapts to the contribution of genetic makeup in the medical and physiological state of the individual along with its influence on the familial implications of a disease condition [1].

Organizational Design

Contrary to typical assumptions that will associate the concept of organization design with that of structuring organizational charts and the likes, organization design has a more comprehensive and practical designation than it really sounds. There is a holistic way of looking at organization design –it is the modeling and alignment of all the involved elements of an organization with the intention of achieving an agreed upon objective. Organizational design is a forthright organizational process with a pertinence so outspoken, that it should literally be addressed in every status meeting of every department on that organization. Organization design is carried ...

After Giving Birth

NR451 RN Capstone Course Term and Year After Giving Birth Even though postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the leading cause of mortality after giving birth, most health care facilities do not have a standardized measures to assess blood volume loss and rely only on visual estimations for assessing and documenting blood loss. Consequently, blood loss below 250 mL tends to be overestimated, whereas blood loss above 2,000 mL tends to be underestimated (Bamberg et al., 2015). Inaccurate diagnosis of PPH delays treatment and increases mortality risk among intrapartum and postpartum women, so the purpose of the proposed nursing plan ...

But how do legislators and regulators determine the risk associated with a particular activity? And how is their process for evaluating environmental risk different from that of the regulated community? The legislators and regulators strictly adhere to existing laws and regulations to determine the risk associated with a particular activity. They evaluate situations and measure the extent of harm which will be inflicted on the community as a whole. Any activity that is said to introduce detrimental effects to the environment is considered harmful and illegal if it goes against environmental laws. The process used by legislators and regulators ...

Elizabeth M. Armstrong and Ernest L. Abel are the authors of the essay on “Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: The Origins of a Moral Panic,” which seems to be more of an opinion/editorial piece. Information about Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) is provided through presentation of various studies that confirm the authors’ position on FAS being less severe than the way it has been reported (Armstrong & Abel, 2000). Armstrong and Abel clearly acknowledge the FAS is a real diagnosis, but they do not think that it warrants as much panic as what has been created through western medicine and society (Armstrong & Abel, ...

Different Types of Facebook Page Posts

Different Types of Facebook Page Posts Social media marketing is consistently growing as more consumers and businesses become involved in social media sites, and various studies have confirmed the utility of social media sites such as Facebook in building brand image and equity for businesses owners (Kim, Sung, Lee, Choi, & Sung, 2016). However, the growing number of information available on the Internet also means users are overloaded with content and need to be selective of where they direct their attention. For Facebook page owners, that means their posts will be less likely to appear in the News Feeds of ...

Business

Business The investment is spending money with expectations on return. Typically, the decisions with higher return expectations require certain risk, the options with moderate risk rate are characterized with medium risk, and the low-return decisions are the most reliable. Therefore, the investment decision is based on the investor’s expectation about the return, probabilities of success for different options, and willingness to take the risk (Dwivedi, 2010). Hence, a manager has to be aware of all the options and make the decision basing on reliable scientific tools. These tools are the decision tree and payoff analysis. The decision analysis ...

When a crime occurs, there is often a limited scope of time in which investigators have a high likelihood of solving the crime itself. Some crimes, like child abductions, have a very distinct frame of time in which the victim is likely to be found alive; however, even in homicides, the sooner the police or investigators begin to solve the crime by following clues, the easier it is for these individuals to discover the truth about what happened to the victim (Fish, Miller, Bramwell, & Wallace, 2013). The clues that the perpetrator or perpetrators leave at a crime scene are ...

The bottling company measured a sample of 30 bottles to test if there is a significant likelihood that a bottle will have less than 16 ounces of liquid in it. The descriptive results of the test indicated that the average of the sample was 15.85, which is lower than the 16 ounce speculation. The median of the 30 bottles was 15.99, indicating that the median is relatively close to the 16 ounce speculation (Table 1). The standard deviation between measurements was .66. There was a 95% confidence interval of a lower limit for ounces of 15.60, however, the upper ...

Crime refers to an offense that is legally recognized as deserving punishment. The most common form of legal punishment is the detention of an individual in a prison. In contemporary detention facilities, such people are incarcerated: this works for both adult and delinquents. Delinquents are persons aged below 17 years and who according to the law are still minors. In most cases, they persist in crime despite the numerous efforts to rehabilitate them back into the society. This, therefore, culminates the question, is it true that crime can be traced through an individual’s life back to their younger ...

Introduction

The degree that digital terrorism is a threat to people’s safety is amongst the most challenging of themes in the twenty first century. To a limited extent, this is a result of terminological question . More far reaching originations of digital terrorism as any type of online terrorist action obviously have a tendency to be connected with a higher evaluated likelihood of the risk's emergence than accomplish more prohibitive records (Cassim, 2012). In the meantime, as itemized further underneath, contending risk evaluations stay regardless of the fact that we limit our centre to smaller understandings of this idea (portrayed, ...

PSY7650 Children with autism spectrum disorders are prone to bullying and stigma. This is especially the case when they are mainstreamed into classes with students with other disabilities and those without any disabilities. Mainstreaming offers more opportunities for the children with disabilities to learn, especially through the interaction with other students. However, the challenges that bullying presents might serve as impediments that reduce the ability of the children with autism spectrum disorder to benefit from the additional learning opportunities (Humphrey & Symes, 2010). The main topic upon which the research is based is the bullying of children with autism spectrum ...

The effects of these risks have made the financial institutions fail to achieve their objectives and decrease in performance as well as maintain their market share. The end results show that the organization is not able to sustain its capabilities. The study is to investigate the effects of risk management on ...

Associations are diverse between tasks. For instance, an individual can be impaired on one task as well as on the other tasks. This aids in the supposition that it is necessary for cognitive processes to carry out the two tasks. The most important type of association is the double association. In this type, the individual may create an association in the area where they are impaired on one task but functions normally on the other. On the other hand, another individual conducts one task normally yet has impaired function on the other task. Generally, therapists and neuroscientists have recognized ...

The evaluation phase is the next step after implementing a research initiative. It involves the assessment of a project to determine its relevance and whether the goals of the project have been met.

Discuss the workup of the cervical lymphadenopathy.

The initial step is to direct a complete and deliberate physical examination to decide its exact location, consistency, size, obsession, and delicacy joined by a complete presentation history and an audit of the patient's indications. This would help determine the type of treatment and whether there is a need for further tests (Gow & Minkes, 2016).

What tests would you do first and why?

Further, tests would be carried out to determine the exact nature and extent of the lymphadenopathy. If it were malignant, the tests would be to determine the extent to which it has spread in order to determine the course of treatment. If otherwise, the ...

The Need for A Vacation

According to Gump & Matthews (2000) and Hartig et al. (2013), the growing demands that people endure from their daily jobs to other responsibilities, there is very little time for them to fully recover.

The costs associated with restoration that is insufficient is rather on the high side in both the short term as far as well as in the long term. Employers are continually seeking ways to improve the lives of their employees by mitigating the problems related to overwork and the like. These provisions that ...

What does the margin of error tell us about a sample taken from a large population? How does the confidence level for a sample outcome differ from the sample’s margin of error? The margin of error is a numerical value that expresses or estimates the likelihood of error in an experiment’s results. Thus, it can somehow account for the statistical significance of a result. If it is smaller, then the likelihood of error is also small, making the results more credible. Smaller sample sizes from a large population generally have a larger margin of error while larger ...

Introduction: Domestic violence: profile of an offender

In the past, an act of domestic violence was not considered as a matter that merits the engagement of the law. Though men have pummeled, maltreated, and molested their intimate partners for years, the common comprehension of society was that abuse and maltreatment of women was as a part of the marriage. It was only to the end of the 1970s that domestic violence was understood as a criminal offense that warranted the involvement of the criminal justice system. However, there has been much contention as to the establishment of a general, universally accepted ...

Program implementation is normally a process of change and it requires advance planning. While the owners of a project may foresee the program as a new method to increase productivity and quality of service, it is inevitable that those others affected by the change will in one way or another resist the entire program or some aspects that they think disrupt their normal activities (Sadeghi‐Bazargani, Tabrizi & Azami‐Aghdash, 2014). The work environment is significantly dependent on the work place culture and any change within the work place is seen as an attempt to change the organizational culture. Those ...
