Narcotics Anonymous (NA) is a support group that grew out of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). They share a common program for the abstinence and recovery from substance abuse but NA was founded to help people with drug addictions specifically. The fellowship of support and the steps taken to achieve sobriety are the same. AA’s book, Alcoholics Anonymous written in 1937 by the founders of AA provides a blueprint for recovery and dozens of stories from alcoholics in recovery. NA has its own version of this type of book: it is specifically written for drug addicts.
Narcotics Anonymous is a Continue reading...

Earth’s climate has undergone a lot of changes ever since it was formed about 4.5 billion years ago. It was hard to picture the condition of the planet during those millions of years ago, but we have an idea of what the Earth’s climate was like back then because of the clues that remained on rocks, fossils, trees etc. (EPA, 2015). According to National Geographic (2015), scientists were able to find chemical evidence of ice age from sediments and sedimentary rocks. The presence of rocks that formed from glacial material, in the ocean was also a clue Continue reading...

Abstract

Violence between partners is a significant cause for medical treatment and injuries. Often these injuries are seen in the emergency room or they may be hidden from a medical profession. Nurses need to be aware of such injuries, not only in identifying them but having understanding of why they occur. Partner violence occurs between partners who are married, living together or intimately involved. The violence knows no gender or sexual orientation boundaries. The violence can take any form: of man on man; man on woman; woman on woman and woman on man. Stereotypes must be ignored and sensitivity needs Continue reading...

Designing Research to Study Interlinks of Manager’s Leadership Behavior, Teamwork and Employee Creativity

Introduction
The flatter organizational setups are prevailing in the current corporate world, and the companies are applying participative management in order to jolt the highest degree of creativity in the employees (Lurie, Schultz, & Lamanna, 2011). The sponsoring and application of teamwork warrants higher degree of delegation on the behalf of the managers (Limsila & Ogunlana, 2008). The managers have to empower the employee in order to exploit their intellectual powers and abilities to a fuller extent so that they can serve the goals of the organizations effectively. Following is the research questions that the intended paper will explore in detail: Continue reading...

Steroids according to Klugger (2014) is a class of synthetic or natural organic compounds characterized by a 17 carbon atom molecular structures arranged in four rings (sec. 1). Being carbon-based compounds, steroids exhibit significant biochemical properties at both the cellular and tissue levels in the human body. Naturally, in the human body the steroid groups typically include all the human sex hormones, the bile acids, and the adrenal cortical hormones. Thus, according to Scovell (n.d.), steroids represent a family of somatic lipid molecules (amphipathic molecules) such as cholesterol (sec. 1). What is of primary concern, however, is steroid use Continue reading...

The system offers organizations wide techniques to security through the expansion of a security culture and a system-wide security classical boosting (RSA Security). Its success is absolutely reliant on a close collaboration between all shareholders and the supervisory bodies.
According to (Cyber Security) the process Continue reading...

Interpreting Logistic Regression Output from Excel

Interpreting Logistic Regression Output from Excel

Introduction

When we have a binary output variable Y, and we wish to model the conditional probability of (Y, given X) as a function of X, one approach is to perform logistic regression. Logistic regression introduces the ‘logistic transformation’, log p (x)/(1-p (x). This logistic transformation helps in avoiding results that would not normally make sense. Using this approach, logistic regression helps to determine the probability of a categorical dependent variable based on one or more predictor variables (Carnegie Mellon University, n.d.).
The challenge is to convert this data to a prediction Continue reading...

Professional socialization is a process through which an individual acquires the knowledge, skills, attitudes, values needed to enact the role of the chosen profession in a satisfactory manner (Dinmohammadi, Peyrovi & Mehrdad, 2013). Attached to a role are a set of behaviors which constitute the norms for that profession. These norms are what clients, colleagues, and superiors expect of the individual in a particular role. For instance, associated with the role of registered nurse are caring behaviors, ethical behaviors, critical thinking, leadership, and collegiality among others. It is therefore expected that the nurse display compassion, prevent harm to the patient, Continue reading...
