Divorce And Preschool Children
... age of the child during the time that marital separation occurs is important, and in fact children of different ages are effected differently by divorce. According to Dr. Hodges and Dr. Bloom (1984), who are Psychology professors, “ the effect of age of the child on the response to the divorce of parents can be examined in three general age groups: preschool, latency (or elementary age) and adolescence”. Each of these age groups showed to respond differently. The preschool age children respond to marital separation with regression, anger, tantrums, aggression and anxiety. The Latency age group shows less im ...

Violence And Pornography
... and I would all sneak around and watch
porn. As I grew older, I became more and more interested and involved in it,
[pornography] became an obsession. I got so involved in it, I wanted to
incorporate [porn] into my life, but I couldnÿt behave like that and maintain
the success I had worked so hard for. I generated an alter-ego to fulfill my
fantasies under-cover. Pornography was a means of unlocking the evil I had
burried inside myselfÿ (Leidholdt 47). Is it possible that pornography is
acting as the key to unlocking the evil in more unstable minds?
According to Edward Donnerstein, a leading researcher in the ...

The Publics Right To Know
... In a hypothetical situation , a man running for president is caught
in a bind where media has to decide if his private life should be published
or not. Involving media forms such as newspapers and television news.

a question of fairness. The possibility of invasion of privacy is also
present. If this information is printed , How will it make the person feel?

Human Aggression
... that everything human beings do would have to be learned from other human beings. Aggression must be learned; it is not simply there from birth. Rather than being an uncontrollable instinct, a person’s behavior is something that is taught to him. For example, a newborn baby is breathing because it is an involuntary reflex. On the other hand, a father may tell his young son to beat up the school bully who is picking on him. As a result, the boy is taught to deal with the situation by using violence.
In order for an individual to display aggression, it must be driven by an instinct interacting with that p ...

Women’s Gender Role
... past were viewed as weak and incompetent compared to the knowledge and power of men. With the help of the National Organization for Women (NOW) which was founded in 1966, women have been able to take a step up. NOW helped promote the passage of the Equal Rights Amendment to the United States Constitution and they are still continuing their efforts.
Presently, women are supposed to have the same rights as men, but they are still often discriminated against. The numbers of women who have entered the work force has gone up sufficiently and they have obtained the same types of jobs as men, such as doctors, lawyers ...

More Freedom Or Safety -- What Would You Choose?
... apply to
schools like Bishop Eustace where these extreme forms of violence have
never occurred?
If I could choose to either have more individual freedom and less
safety or the individual freedom and safety that I presently have, I would
want to continue living the way that I currently live. I do think that
individual freedom in the United States means the freedom to pursuit and
attain one’s individual potential and that the possession of firearms or
weapons by a student in a school is in no way in keeping with that idea.
Additionally, many students probably are incapable of properly using a gun
and that ma ...

Communication Skills
... and briefly. One must also have a clear and pleasant tone to
his or her voice. This makes the person you are talking to more attentive,
thus, more interested. The speaker must also be aware of his environment
and the people he is speaking to. Environment plays a lot with what you say
and try to convey to people. If you hear a bird chirping, you might
incorporate it to what you where just about to say. This makes the person
you're talking to even more comfortable with what you are trying to convey
with your thoughts and ideas. This is how different things can effect one's
communication skill, speaking.

Hollywood's Attack On Religion
... futile to argue against. Yet, Hollywood, which includes films, music
and television, continues to disregard the obvious facts that Medved has
revealed.
In the first chapter of this section, "A Declaration of War," Medved
discusses the facts surrounding the protest which took place on August 11, 1988,
in opposition to the release of the motion picture The Last Temptation of Christ.
MCA/Universal, which funded the Martin Scorsese film, called the protesters a
"know-nothing wacky pack" (38). However, as Medved points out, the protest was
"the largest protest ever mounted against the release of a motion pic ...

Love In Today's Society
... 1960s and 1970s; his
work captures the profile of a rock star who undoubtedly acquired his
domineering attitude from the endless worship of submissive women. Lastly we
enter the modern era with a article from my favorite magazine Men's Health on
the mistakes a man must avoid in order to please his lover. As we shall see,
the increased freedom is very interesting in our first representation to the
last. My goal is to show how love has changed. I hope to show what is accepted
in our society today, compared with only several decades ago.
Application
My sources run the gamut of ideas in the subject of love ...

Behind Closed Doors: The Correlation Between Multiple Personality Disorder And Child Abuse
... Disorder, and it effects thousands of people in the United States
alone. But why does MPD fascinate us? It has often been found quite
interesting. Movies, books, and even talk shows have been made trying to show
the harsh reality of the disorder, but how seriously are we expected to take
Truddi Chase and the "Troops" when they are on The Oprah Show? How worried are
we for Sybil when we remember Sally Field as Gidget? As grim as this disorder
is we often don't realize the severity unless we hear it from "the voices."
Using the psychoanalytical approach, I will show how past abusive experiences
have driven ...
