Career Theories Based off information received in the interview, it appears that artistic (A) would likely be his strongest area in the Holland code. He enjoys activities that allow him to be creative. This is true in work and in leisure. He currently enjoys the creativity in his work, and enjoyed it as a cook, as well. Plus, he enjoys painting and music. His artistic side was a theme throughout the interview. While the artistic side is clear, I would also theorize that he could fall under investigative

Tangibles versus intangibles, which ones bear a higher value today? Since the first human economic relations, tangible goods, those one can feel and touch, were playing a predominant role as objects of trade. Over time, with the course of history, intangible aspects of products (those one cannot touch or feel) such as personal attachment attributes, place of goods origin, appearance and visual design, aesthetic, status or social properties rose sharply. A developed, prosperous society is characterized

Before the decision of our final residential location choice model, we tested how the preferences of residential location are different among age and income groups. Stratifying the sample of households by age and income is helpful to identify the heterogeneity in housing preferences among different market segments as well as investigate whether differences in location preferences exist between different groups. All the household location choice models performed reasonably well as shown in Table 1~3

We conducted meta-analyses of EQ-5D utilities across different GOLD levels, based on an inverse-variance approach. The pooled estimates for EQ-5D measurements of mild, moderate, severe, and very severe COPD are 0.821 (95% CI: 0.814-0.828), 0.760 (95% CI: 0.756-0.765), 0.727 (95% CI: 0.722-0.732), and 0.681 (95% CI: 0.675-0.686). Results based on visual analogue scale demonstrated a similar trend. There was insufficient data for meta-analysis on the utilities across different disease severity levels

psychological attitude: the agent compares various items and ranks which ones he likes better than others (the preferences). The probability function represents the agent’s beliefs about the states of the world, while the interval-valued (or carinal) utility function stands for the agent’s relative desires for the basic

Stuart Mill’s Utilitarianism and Immanuel Kant’s Groundwork of the Metaphysic of Morals respectively. Utilitarianism is an ethical theory that claims that the best action one can perform is the one that brings about the most pleasure, happiness or utility. Utilitarianism is extremely consequentialist in nature, focusing solely on the results of one’s actions and not on intentions or other notions of ideas such as justice or humanity. There are two main branches of utilitarianism: act utilitarianism

“Availability Heuristic” which is how people judge the probabilities of future events based on how easy those events are to imagine or to retrieve from memory lead to further biases like “hindsight bias”. Hindsight Bias imply that since events that actually happened are easier to imagine than the events that are counterfactual therefore people attach a higher probability they previously attached to events that later happened. Hindsight bias leads to “second guessing” or Monday-morning quarterbacking

Needs Analysis The purpose of this needs assessment is to determine the familiarity with, and opinions regarding blended learning of the teaching staff of Timberlane Middle School and to determine the viewpoints of 6th grade students of Timberlane Middle School towards their preferred methods of instruction and classroom organization. To ascertain this information, I conducted two short surveys via Google Forms, one for the staff (Appendix A) and the second for the students (Appendix B). The staff

Surplus Value: When the system takes more from you than it gives back to you by infusing human labor into the product and not fairly repaying the laborer for their work, which in turn creates the surplus value. 2. Verstehen- Interpretive Understanding: When we interact with the world we understand how to interpret things that helps us identify our actions and the things identified as our actions are certain interpretations that we share. In this paragraph Weber is discussing the social order
