Linking Media With Fitness Perceptions: A Study On The Affect Of Media On Fitness And Body Image
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1179

.... my statement that there would be a connection between the fitness concept and the media packages as well as a constant self- concept maintained by all participants. In assessing personal attitudes it is often important to measure not only what an individual feels towards others but also his/herself. Prior research indicates this is especially important when measuring attitudes towards physical issues. It has been found that opposing views may be held simultaneously by individuals in regards to themselves and others. Also concern for how a response will reflect upon his/he .....


Inhumanity
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 719

.... strangers. While the stranger, their opponent, has no personal aggression towards them. This is an act of violence. True aggression involves disputes between individual rivals. The primary function of the aggressive acts is to intimidate and dominate these rivals. When violence is concerned, the victim is depersonalized and becomes, not the rival, but the ‘goal’ or the ‘paycheck’. In war, groups of men enter the battle with complete stranger in their sights. They have no personal knowledge of the enemy troops, who, if they can see at all, appear as no more than tiny impers .....


Transcendentalism
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 544

.... and feeling the power of nature. The only way Thoreau could encounter a relationship with nature was to become one with the way of the woods, streams, ponds, and animals. Thoreau was also indicative of Emerson's success as a transcendental writer, because they lived together in the same house and shared similar ideas and beliefs. Along with the influence of Thoreau, Emerson was further affected by the writings of William Wordsworth and Samuel Coleridge in their book Lyrical Ballads. Emerson's poems reflect the images of the oversoul and harmony of man and nature. Unlike .....


Censorship
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 487

.... ‘where violence is strongly glamorized or used to excite.’ There have been 85 major studies of the effects of such violence on children. Eighty-four of the eighty- five concluded that it caused an increase in all manner of aggressive behavior, up to and including homicide. What happened to the one study that disagreed? Well, they were paid off by the National Broadcasting Company that just shows how guilty they are of producing violence from television. Another study shows that American children are having sexual intercourse at an average age of 16. If the television w .....


Friends
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 607

.... the family at various family and social functions. Maybe that is why I grew up or matured, if I may say so, much before any of my or for that matter any other teenager around me. If I were asked to assess my character and forces that are responsible for its structure I would repeat what I have already stated. Now after doing the self-analysis from the book I am sort of lost. I do not know or let’s say that I did not know how science would analyze me. Maybe, as the results showed, I am pragmatic, a self-monitor, a non-risk taker and maybe even a person who hates into every .....


Road Rage And Its Avoidance
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 1090

.... into a building or other structure or property. What goes through the minds of those who commit these senseless acts on our roadways? What leads up to the final crime and what eventually triggers of these people? The psychological process leading up to the final and the final triggering of the anger are all part of a somewhat long and complex process by which the committer of the act goes through and eventually commits the crime. As it turns out, aggressive driving is rarely the result of a single incident, such as a stolen parking space or being cut off by traffic by .....


Gender In Sports
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1277

.... the women football athletes. This lack of recognition for female athletes only becomes more frequent as one progresses through the levels of competition in virtually any sport. The games of women's teams, where they do exist, tend to draw only limited crowds at most levels of competition, scholastic or otherwise. In the realm of athletic activities, the American society has chosen not to offer the same opportunities to its women as it traditionally has to its men. For centuries, it seems, it has generally been accepted that sports and other activities relying upon physica .....


Improving Education
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 723

.... "Further, at-risk students are best served when the teacher provides direct instruction in reading and math." ( ) During the regular school day, students receive a variety of teaching approaches when learning the curriculum. Extended day, however, takes a more "hands on" approach to learning those objectives which are identified as needing improvement during the selection process. A ten to one student/teacher ratio allows for individualized attention to be given. By having a smaller ratio, " frequent monitoring and assessment of pupil progress, high expectations, a .....
