Introduction

In research, sampling describes the selection of the units, individuals, and settings under investigation. Quantitative studies, primarily, include random sampling. In contrast, qualitative studies strive for purposeful sampling, which involves a sample relevant to a particular research question. If one were studying the adult survivors who faced childhood sexual abuse, for example, examining a random sample of ten people may indicate only one survivor. Consequently, the researchers will have a sample size of one individual and should continue the random sampling until they reach a suitable number of adult survivors. Such a method, however, is time-consuming and ineffective. Thus, Continue reading...

With today’s market saturated with advertisements, it can be overwhelming to the consumer and sometimes pointless for the marketer. Advertisements often miss their mark because not every advertisement is meant for every person. An ad featuring a scantily clad woman on a beach is obviously meant for a specific age group, and sometimes a specific gender, depending on the context. Meanwhile, an ad featuring a middle-aged woman using an all-purpose cleaning device to save time in order to get a four-course meal on the table before her family returns home for the evening is clearly not meant for Continue reading...

Reader’s Log:

Of the types of emerging media that we have discussed in this lesson, I think that the increasing blend of gaming and literature is something that intrigues me most. In the early days of video gaming (the 1970s through the 1990s), gaming was mostly a means to an end, with very little in terms of story; now, with the advent of greater gaming technology and RPG elements into the story, there is much more of a coherent, novelistic narrative being found in a variety of works.
One example I particularly like is the Mass Effect series of video games, Continue reading...

William Golding’s seminal 1960 novel The Lord of the Flies, featuring a group of schoolboys who wash ashore on a deserted island only to form their own primitive civilization, functions on a highly allegorical level by illustrating mankind’s inherent savagery in spite of the desire for order and society. The main characters – Ralph, Piggy, and Jack – represent a triumvirate of forces that contribute to this overall theme through their interactions and dynamics, their fates and problems demonstrating the fall of civilization due to the pull of the primitive.
Ralph, at his core, represents the more equal, egalitarian Continue reading...

Human life is priceless, and it follows, therefore, that one cannot quite place a value on it. It is because no one can quantify an individual’s life like the way he/she quantifies material things. One cannot say that a person’s life is more worthy or valuable than another person’s. It is possible to give an estimate of the value of an object, say a piece of cloth, furniture, vehicle, property, or house. The reason for this is that for such things it requires time, money, strength, dedication and commitment to make or build. Therefore, their total Continue reading...

Electronic healthcare records (EHR) are digital records of patients’ current and previous conditions, medications, physician’s visits, and test results. These records may be shared between physicians and medical facilities treating the same patient. In some systems, patients are able to access their records themselves. These communication tools have the ability to enhance the patients’ care. On the other hand, EHRs pose several privacy and security risks. They also risk violating Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) laws.

The Effect of Electronic Records on Healthcare

EHRs often add value for the patient, making their visits to doctors and hospitals streamlined and personalized (Sinsky et al., Continue reading...

Secularism is the theory which states that the government institutes along with the individuals who are supposed to represent the state should not be associated with any religious institutions and religious dignitaries. There is a lot of debate revolving around the feasibility of this principle being implemented, and the proponents’ strongest argument is the prejudice that would be avoided if the state does not associate itself with a specific religion which would make the real purpose of the state i.e. to provide safety and fulfill the rights of its citizens, regardless of their religion. The question as to the Continue reading...
