Over the past two decades, EBP has expanded on Florence's theories. EBP constitutes the combination of clinical expertise, patient values, and research evidence when making decisions about patient care. In the 1990's, it was determined that just increasing knowledge was not sufficient for improving patient outcomes. To obtain better patient outcomes "new knowledge must be transformed into clinically useful forms, effectively implemented across the entire care team within a systems context,

In Marked Women, Unmarked Men, Deborah Tannen discusses the nature of marked women and its consequences. Tannen, a female writer, points out the “marked” aspects of women by first giving an example of three differently clothed women, named No. 1 through 3, in a meeting. She allows readers to visualize the distinct difference between men and women’s appearance. Then she shifts to explaining in depth about the definition of “marked” and how it appears on the daily lives of women. She spends most of her article discussing the conference meeting example and the definition of “marked”. Although Tannen indicates many contradictions surrounding the “marked” female aspects like clothing and surnames, she does not reach to a conclusion. Because the

Belonging to a certain group is a natural experience in the lives of individuals. Groups are categorizable by a variety of options but often expel a trait that epitomizes each individual within the group such as rank, societal merit, or simply just appearance. Behaviorism gratifies purpose within cohort mentality among those in an association due to the psychological commonalities that bring these groups together. When it comes to an individual's development within a certain group, joint mentality helps create a safe environment but often times supports ideologies of self empowerment. Anthropologist Karen Ho composes the analysis of students whom graduate Ivy League universities and enter into financial professions, in her essay “Biographies

Mary Jane Safford stood in the midst of battle tending to the wounded while waving her white flag, her handkerchief tied to a pole, as a flag of truce. She was known as the “Cairo Angel” as her face would brighten wounded soldier’s days. As stated in the article “Mary Jane Safford” by Maggie Maclean, “Safford’s sweet, young face, full of benevolence, pleasant voice and winning manner that instate her in everyone's heart. Every sick and wounded soldier in Cairo knows and loves her, and as she enters the ward, every pale face brightens at her approach. She is performing a noble work... in the quietest and most unconscious manner.” Mary Jane Safford was a heroic nurse who saved many lives during the Civil War.

It all began when I got a letter from my boyfriend, Mark Fossie. He wanted to ship me over to the war in Vietnam. Mark sent me the money to go. I was not sure about the idea at first, the more I thought about it the more I wanted to go. An exciting new place, new experiences, an adventure. My life here is boring and I have missed Mark since he left. Six weeks after his letter, I arrive in Vietnam. It is so overwhelming in this new place although it is kind of exhilarating, it makes me feel very alive.

A focus of my undergraduate studies was African American history, especially during the nineteenth century, and the African American author Frances Harper was one of three featured poets in my honors thesis. I mention Harper not only because of her significance as an African American author, but also because of her inspirational influence on me as an activist. Harper devoted her writing to giving disadvantaged people voices and challenged oppressive populations to help the very people they oppressed. I was deeply awed by her in this regard and have aspired to have

Ms. Moore is an outsider; she is isolated from the rest of her community. The narrator says, “This lady moved on our block with nappy hair and proper speech and no makeup. And quite naturally we laughed at her…” (Bambara 1). Ms. Moore does not incorporate the significant influence of the white community in her everyday life, unlike others in her community. For example, she wears her hair natural and does not try to tame it. Her knowledge and her peculiar look caused people to think strangely about Ms. Moore. The narrator states, “Which is just one of the things the grownups talked about when they talked behind her back like a dog” (Bambara 1). This infers that the adults are most likely intimidated and jealous of Ms. Moore’s refinement; however,

They were the subjects of public disputes with family members, court systems, medical professionals, the media, and society at large. Terri Schiavo, Nancy Cruzan and Karen Ann Quinlan; their names are synonymous with permanent vegetative state (PVS). The amazing technological advancements in modern medicine has been credited with keeping persons alive who in times past would have died, therefore this is remarkable for countless families. In the cases of the Quinlan’s, the Cruzan’s and many like them, families members find it unbearable to witness loved ones who linger indefinitely in PVS with little or no chance for recovery. There are many like Terri Schiavo’s parents, who value the lives of their love ones no matter how limited their

Susan McClary’s scholarly article, A Musical Dialect from the Enlightenment: Mozart’s Piano Concerto in G Major, K. 453, Mvt. 2, starts off with her recalling a time after watching a performance of the concerto with a colleague and the two of them confessing different opinions about the soloist’s performance. McClary, who liked the performance, notes that soloist articulates “unusual compositional strategies indicated in Mozart’s texts”. The argument ends with the two not only about the piece and Mozart, but also about the significance of the eighteenth-century. McClary’s article attempts to critique the perfection of Mozart’s works.

In “Religious Experiences”, Saint Teresa argued that her two experiences were valid because she was conscious of the lord’s presence. In this paper, I will be exploring the two religious experiences Saint Teresa encountered while analyzing the argument about the epistemic value the experiences could possibly have.

Judith Butler questions the belief that behaviors of either sex are natural. She proposes a rather radical theory that gender is performative and that sex is constructed. When gender is being performed, it means that someone would take on a role, acting in such a way that gives society the idea of their gender and constructs part of their identity. To be performative means that we produce a series of effects.Gender is constructed and is not in any way connected ‘naturally’ to sex.
