attitudes, utilising one of four types of attitude measurement scales. For example, Louis L. Thurstone (1887-1955) devised his equal interval scale in his 1928 work, ‘Attitudes can be measured’, based on results obtained from a study on religious attitudes, ranging from extremely positive to extremely negative (Thurstone and Chave, 1929). However, constructing such a scale is a complicated and time-consuming process. Items on the scale are assumed to have equal intervals (i.e. items are divided into

According to Kalat (2013), an individual’s genetics plays a key role in determining not only their facial features, but also their expressions. A comparison of relatives one sighted and the other blind revealed that there were similarities in their facial expressions. For individuals with sight, the ability to not only recognize faces but infer the mood of the individual is a skill that is learned early. This evolutionary adaptation has the ability to reveal an individual’s intentions, either

Hurricanes are disastrous forces that destroy homes and families. Making life harder for those already suffering or completely obliterating the financial status of a family. Not to mention the issues it can cause for local wildlife among damage to humans. Hurricanes need two ingredients to form: warm ocean water and wind. There are four stages of a hurricane, depending on the wind speed: tropical disturbance, tropical depression, tropical storm, and hurricane. They first begin as tropical disturbances

give a sense of unity. Borrowing the terminology mentioned by Pauline Fairclough, the short version will be called motive x. Therefore, the full length version will be called melody x. Motive x starts on the first scale degree and ascends until the fifth scale degree with a sixth scale degree as a diatonic upper neighbor pitch.According to Fairclough, motive x connects songs number 1, 6, and 7, and this proves that the Song of the Forests was composed very carefully. In addition to Fairclough’s

Before this project, our lab was only equipped with “Rockwell Hardness Testing Machine” which was quite insufficient, consequently our company had to outsource the product for testing. To develop the facility for verification of materials’ physical, mechanical and chemical properties and to bring down the product cost and increase savings, the development of fully equipped Material Testing Lab was the demand of the time and indirectly our client requirement. Reviewing my qualification, knowledge

the instruction given to the participants when completing a Pure Procrastination Scale (PPS) which was developed by Steel (2010). It had 12 items and on a one to five scale where one is strongly disagree and 5 is strongly agree. A statement “I generally delay before starting on work I have to do”. Higher scores meant higher levels of procrastination. Perfectionism was measured with a multidimensional perfectionism scale (MPS) developed by Frost et al. (1990) 6 subscales is used to measure sub components

Current Study The purpose of this study is to investigate the depiction of beauty in animated Disney Princess movies and consequences the portrayal of beauty has on young girl’s individual self-esteem. This study includes one general hypothesis. The hypothesis states that young girls who idealize the beauty standards of Disney Princesses will have lower self-esteem than young girls who do not idealize their standard of beauty. I expected that young girls who have the desire to mimic Disney Princesses

Ever since my Nana first let me help her bake Christmas cookies at around 5-years-old, I have enjoyed cooking. Being away at college has limited my ability to cook, but I still manage to indulge myself when I’m home during breaks. A dish that I first made about two years ago, and been developing ever since is Chili Verde. The fresh, savory, and slightly sweet cousin of the classic “bowl of red” is something that I’ve grown fond of eating, but even more so of preparing- of learning the process and

An unwanted change in weather can change a life in a matter of hours. A hurricane is a tropical storm that occurs near oceans and on coasts. Hurricanes in Florida happen often and the citizens in the affected area will need to be prepared for these storms. This will be how to be ready for and handle a level one to a level three hurricane. In a level three hurricane extensive damage to buildings and flooding along the coast occur. Following these steps will not guarantee safety from a hurricane. The

Schubert 's Elfking was his initially distributed creation, and has turned out to be considered among the finest tunes in the established repertoire. The content that the music is set to be composed by that popular German artistic figure, Goethe. It is a somewhat dull sonnet, particularly considering that it was imagined as a section of a bigger work in an abstract class with entertaining and humorous connotations. Schubert benefits from the indistinct idea of the content, translating it with a shade
