For my subgroup project, I decided to observe a group of teenage boys. Located at the intersection of Fullerton and central. The location seemed like any other McDonalds except the arrangement of the sits. They have a wide range of chairs and furniture located in the side of the entrance while the front part was wide. My subgroup was located in the side of the McDonalds near the restrooms. The methods I used were participant observation, informal interviewing, and formal interviewing. While I conducted
Jensen, updated his model with a fifth stage called “adjourning” (Smith, 2005). To this Tuckman stated: We reviewed 22 studies that had appeared since the original publication of the model and which we located by means of the Social Sciences Citation Index. These articles, one of which dubbed the stages the 'Tuckman hypothesis' tended to support the existence of the four stages but also suggested a fifth stage for which a perfect rhyme could not be found. We called it 'adjourning' (Tuckman 1984).
semi-structured interviews. These instruments determine many different aspects of addiction and treatment. One such instrument is the Addiction Severity Index. The ASI attempts to gather valuable information about a person’s life that can help to identify what may contribute to their substance abuse problems. The Addiction Severity Index can be applied to both alcohol and other drug areas (Hester & Miller, 2003). It was created about 20 years ago by A. Thomas McLellan and his associates at

It has been long the interest of psychologists in understanding the factors that determine psychopathy (Skeem et al., 2011). Family factors, whether they being genetic or environmental, have always been classified preponderant in the development of psychopathy (Millon et al., 2002, cited in Hildebrand, 2004). Researchers have looked and established that psychopaths are at a higher risk to be violent offenders than normal population (Theodorakis, 2013). Likewise, researchers have demonstrated that
past few decades, obesity has been the main nutritional problem and has become one of the most critical health concerns in America. According to recent statistics, approximately one third of American adults are obese in which they have a body mass index (BMI which can be calculated as an individual’s weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters) of 30 or higher. Obesity does not only shorten people’s life expectancy in the future, but also burdens the national medical spending which
INTRODUCTION A commodity can be broadly defined as “a physical product, natural resource, or chemical that an individual can touch, taste, smell, mine, grow, consume, or deliver” (Lind Waldock, 2011). Commodities are fungible, meaning they are considered equivalent even though they may come from different producers. Because there is little product differentiation, commodity prices are fundamentally driven by global supply and demand (S&P, 2011). A. MAJOR CATEGORIES OF COMMODITIES Commodities

chain-forming bacteria were isolated by Fehleisen; and in the following year, Rosenbach applied the S. pyogenes name. Further advances in hemolytic and non-hemolytic studies were made by Lancefield in the 1930’s, in which the alpha, beta, and gamma subgroups of the hemolytic structures – detailed and defined by Schottmueller and Brown - were divided into serotypes. Although he lived four centuries before the birth of Christ, a man named Hippocrates recorded the symptoms of diseases we still see to this
Constitution formulated in 1988, defines it as a federal republic. The word “brazil” comes from brazilwood, a tree that once grew plentifully along the Brazilian coast. Before the arrival of Europeans, the boundaries between these groups and their subgroups were marked by wars that arose from difference in culture, language
Whenever using language a speaker will inevitably signal his or her social and personal background, therefore language is said to be indexical of a person's class, social status, gender, age, region of origin, etc. One may ask, what is index?, consequently: “An index involves a logical relation between sign and object (such as cause and effect), for example a weathercock, which stands for the wind but which is directly influenced by the wind direction” (Noth W. 1990:112) In the sociolinguistic sens
The averages formed a “Real Me” index, and the higher the score indicated that the participant’s “real me” leaned more towards the internet. The second questionnaire given was The Eyeneck Personality
Chronic Illnesses in Children and Their Effect on the Families Approximately 10% to 15% of children under 18 years of age have a chronic physical illness or condition and the number of children with chronic conditions has increased substantially in recent decades. It is obvious that chronic illnesses in children do have an immense impact on the families of these children. There are many psychological consequences for the sufferers, their siblings and their parents. Firstly we start by
The Role of the Amygdala in Fear and Panic The definition of fear has proved to be an elusive mystery plaguing scientists. While there is much agreement as to the physiological effects of fear, the neural pathways and connections that bring upon these effects are not well understood. From the evolutionary standpoint, the theory is that fear is a neural circuit that has been designed to keep the organism alive in dangerous situations (1). How does it all work? Learning and responding to stimuli
coronary patients not on lipid-lowering medication from two institutions to determine the effects of CR and weight reduction on exercise capacity and CRFs in obese coronary patients. In this study, 235 patients were allocated to the obese (Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 27.3kg/m2 in women and ≥ 27.8kg/m2 in men) and 353 to the non-obese group. Within the obese group, 45 patients who had ≥5% weight reduction were compared to 81 who did not. All subjects underwent 36 sessions of outpatient phase II CR for approximately
In 1990, Armsden, McCauley, Greenberg, Burke, and Mitchell published an article in the Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology called, “Parent and Peer Attachment in Early Adolescent Depression” (p. 683-697). Understanding the cause of parent-depressed child relations would help in a comprehensive theory of childhood depression.

feminist” (qtd. in Dastagir, 2018). Everybody falls into certain groups that relates to each individual person – whether that is age, gender, sexual orientation, race, or any other characteristic. Each person therefore identifies in more than one subgroup. Intersectional feminism is the overlapping of these categories in the feminist movement. And as later generations became and are becoming contributors to the feminist movement, it is moving away from its roots as a movement of gender equality and
