Casual Observation Report

Since our results didn’t support our hypothesis, a few experimental errors that could be an explanation would be if anyone in the sample had seen the videos before, if the subject had closed their eyes or covered them out of fear, causing them to not get as scared, or for example if the subject liked scary things and didn’t get scared because it wasn’t very scary compared to what they have experienced. All of these would explain why our data showed that no change in blood pressure or heart rate occurred.

introduction: Some people may say that gladiators were the heroes of rome, but I think that this is unrealistic because, they were really enslaved people with no choice but to fight. just imagine being kidnapped and sold as slaves, then being whipped and forced to fight other slaves in the arena, just for others entertainment! My argument is that gladiators were just poor abused people forced to kill and fight by the corrupt emperors and the ruthless roman masses even if they had no chance or didn’t want to. BP1: TS. For example: The gladiators didn’t want to fight.

There are many ways to get someone’s pulse racing, and one effective way is based on how suspenseful a movie is. Many people who are thrill-seekers love the rush of excitement when they watch a scary movie, particularly one filled with lots of suspenseful scenes. It is said that the brain is wired, “to perceive what it sees as real” (Sparks, 2015). Therefore, it is difficult for the brain to ignore what is not considered reality, and if the movie is very realistic and terrifying than the brain will make the body react accordingly. To test how suspenseful movies affect people physiologically, an experiment will be conducted to test how the heart rate is affected by suspenseful movies. The movie, Jaw, was preselected on the basis that movies that contain realistic things terrify people the most. The movie is about a young woman who is killed by a shark while swimming in the ocean and the police who investigate the case decide on closing up the beach. However, the mayor overrules it, believing that the shutdown of the beach will affect the income for the town. So, a scientist and a retired sailor decide to help the mayor on a trip to find the killer beast and end it all.

Key findings during the experiment were the alternative

Each video was watched twice, to ensure that no characteristics were missed. Videos were analyzed through the use of sexual characteristics and non-sexual characteristics tally sheets. When a specific characteristic was present it would only be marked down once per video. Because the focus of this research was on sexualization of women, only females were identified and coded.

During the Cold War and the War on Terror, the United States of America used the media to depict Soviet and Middle Eastern people as foreign enemies that posed a threat to U.S. national security. The bombing of the World Trade Center on September 11th, 2001 changed the lives of millions of Muslims forever because they began to be targeted by U.S. media corporations. Media corporations started to depict Muslims in the Middle East as terrorists to persuade the American public to wage the War on Terror in the Middle East in order to stop the spread of terrorism and homeland threats, like 9/11, from occurring again. However, even though media corporations portrayed the War on Terror as a justification to defeat terrorism and to protect the

In the study conducted by Anderson & Shimamura (2005) film clips were used as the stimuli. They assessed memory for neutral words presented during film clips which were designed to elicit different levels of emotional arousal. Four film clips: a neutral film, a positive film, a negative film, and an arousal film and a list of neutral words where used as stimuli, in the study phase, participants watched the four film clips with the audio turned off. At the same time, they listened to words presented on headphones. After viewing all four film clips, participants were administered a free recall test for words presented during the films and after the free recall test, participants were tested on details of the films as well. This film survey test

As a counselor assistant, I have been given multiple projects specially during the fall semesters. For example, last spring I was given the tasks to prepare a workshop for undocumented students while preparing for Transfer Celebration Day. Trying to find the information through CSAC and having to contact different vendors for the event was challenging yet rewarding. It was rewarding because I assisted undocumented students that were transferring to a four-year institution by informing them of the financial aid requirements and scholarships. I had to contact multiple CSAC representatives to find out details about the Dream Act application and other vital information. At the same time, I was also contacting vendors that could visit Pierce College

Using the traditional behavior management I don’t think it will be the best approach to positive behavior support. When looking into figure 12.1 on page 216, is very hard to try to fix an individual without understanding the problem behind the individual behavior. Behavior at times is implemented by a behavioral specialist that often is outside the general classroom, at times it might not be the ultimate resolution. I am not implying that behavioral specialist input is not important, but is hard to have someone come into the classroom just one day and already have a behavior plan, which sometimes doesn’t work for the student. A one-day observation is not the same as actually really knowing the student and their up and down on an everyday living.

Marijuana is the most used illegal drug out there, with about three hundred million users nationwide. The psychoactive chemical in marijuana, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol. It is used to get users the metaphoric “high” they experience. The effects it has on the brain, early use is started by younger kids. The use by earlier generations can lead to loss of iq, stunted growth of the lungs, possible chance of lung cancer, tar buildup in the lungs, mellow and either hunger or sleep. Along with those the common use of marijuana can cause a lowered immune system making you more vulnerable to an illness. The thc and cbd are the main chemicals that contribute to the “high” you get.When you come down from the high, you may feel tired or a bit depressed.

S/O: Mr. Bill was 20 minutes early for this session. He came in today feeling somewhat tired because he was up late the night before completing school assignments. This led use to discuss his issues with procrastination. He noted the he had not been procrastinating as much because he liked the structure of his psychology courses. We also continued to explore his feelings more globally in his relationship with his wife.

I have always been interested in academia! That’s why I picked academic pharmacy and professional leadership rotation with Dr. Phelps as my second priority when I had to prioritize my favorite rotations during the Fall 2015 semester. The moment I saw it scheduled for me, I knew it would be a great experience for me to expand my academic background and to improve my professional skills. On the second of May, Jonathan and I started our rotation by meeting Dr. Phelps and introducing ourselves, then Dr. Phelps gave us a brief overview of the academic rotation objectives. We were instructed to work on different projects, self-improvement certifications, building syllabi, and assisting academic administrators if

My practicum took place on September 7,2016 from nine thirty to ten thirty. The practicum took place at Impact Early College High School in Baytown. The class I observed was Ms. Nguyen’s class of juniors and seniors that contained twenty students, seven boys and thirteen girls. The class appeared to be alert and ready to learn. Since this was their second period class they already had enough time to shake off their fatigue. The subject was Pre-Calculous and the topic was operations of functions. Students entered the classroom in a calm manner and socialized until it was time to start class. The teacher instructed the students to take their seats and take five minutes to write their assignments into their academic calendar. The teacher went

The results showed that there was no effect of valence on memory for both age groups who viewed the arousing words. However, the effect of valence on memory was evident for both age groups when they were shown non-arousing words. The data also showed that the younger adults remembered the negative non-arousing words more than the positive non-arousing

My first day of observations had finally arrived. Filled with excitement, I opened the doors to Pleasant Ridge Elementary School, and walked into the front office to sign in as a guest for the day. I made my way to the second grade wing to do my first observation for my field experience report. The second grade instructor greeted me as I entered her classroom, with a big bright smile I found made her classroom warm and inviting.
