What is the difference between throat and neck?

The throat is the internal part of the neck that includes the windpipe and esophagus, whereas the neck is the external part of the body that connects the head to the torso. The neck is a visible part of the body, while the throat is an internal passageway for breathing and swallowing.

What is the nature and nurture debate in relation to socialization?

The nature versus nurture debate in socialization focuses on the relative importance of genetics (nature) versus environment (nurture) in shaping human behavior and development. Nature proponents argue that biological factors play a significant role, while nurture proponents emphasize the influence of socialization experiences, such as family, peers, and culture. Ultimately, most researchers believe that both nature and nurture interact to shape an individual's socialization process.

Difference between interpersonal and intrapersonal?

Interpersonal refers to relationships and interactions between individuals, while intrapersonal relates to self-awareness and understanding within an individual.

What are the similarities and differences between counseling and mentoring?

Similarities: Both counseling and mentoring involve providing support, guidance, and advice to individuals. They aim to help individuals overcome challenges, set goals, and develop personally and professionally.

Differences: Counseling typically focuses on addressing emotional or psychological issues, while mentoring focuses on career development and skill-building. Counseling is usually more structured and goal-oriented, while mentoring is often a more informal and relationship-based process. Additionally, counselors are usually trained mental health professionals, while mentors may not have formal training.

What is the difference between thinking and action?

Thoughts exist within our brain, where powerful inhibitors, such as we experience during sleep, prevent us from carrying them out without voluntary action.

We have to make the decision to take action, and then direct our bodies to carry out that action. Volition is probably the concept in question here.

What is the difference between psychosomatic and somatization?

To somatize is to take stress and basically turn it into or express it in somatic ways. A child with separation anxiety may somatize the anxiety and express it as a stomach ache. In somatization, the stomach ache is real, but a major cause of the stomach ache is anxiety. The term "somatization" is associated with a specific disorder, which involves the occurrence of multiple physical complaints over a period of time which are believed to have more of a basis in mental health rather than in an actual physical disorder (See the Diagnostic Manual of Mental Disorders for more detail on that). The term psychosomatic is a more general term for the study of medical issues in which psychological factors play a major role. Psychosomatic medicine would include the study and treatment of, for instance, heart disease and diabetes in which psychological factors play an important role, but also other somatoform disorders (of which somatization disorder is one). such as In conversion blindness (also a somatoform disorder), the sufferer cannot see even though the brain and eye function normally. It is believed that because of psychological factors, the sufferer's exprience is that they cannot see. They are not believed to be 'faking" blindness (that would be termed "malingering if the purpose was for some sort of secondary gain like money, and it would be called "factitious disorder" if the purpose was to for primary gain like being in the sick role and receiving sympathy). In conversion blindess the sufferer really experiences themselves as blind despite the fact that the cause is psychological rather than physiological. The psychoanalytic explanation for this would be that there was something in the person's environment that they desperately do not want to see, and "blindness" is the unconscious mind's solution to the problem. In the psychosomatic study of heart disease, however, there is more of a focus on the impact of stress, anxiety, and anger on the heart and its functioning. In psychoneuroimmunology, there is a focus on the ability of certain personality traits and ways of managing stress to impact overall health and resistance to disease.

What is social identity?

Social identity is how your peers avaliate your skills, your behaviour, character, and other personal characteristics in your community, and how you interact with the other people. The result of such social identification is very important to evaluate you as a citizen.

What is the lexical approach?

This shouldn't be accepted without looking around a little bit more, but from what I know, the lexical approach is typically applied in psychology as a way of studying the way humans format language and communicate. The basic idea is that humans store language information in clusters called "lexical chunks." These chunks are phrases with words that are very commonly found together. The word "odor," for example, is defined as the description of a smell, but people typically associate it with a negative smell. That is because odor is usually found in lexical chunks like foul odor, strong odor, disgusting odor, or rank odor. These are all associations that people make when they hear the word "odor." Another example of a lexical chunk is the term "figment of (pronoun) imagination." People rarely use the word figment except in reference to that lexical chunk. This should be cited because I took the figment example from a site I looked at a week ago: http://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/think/methodology/lexical_approach1.shtml

What is naturalistic observation?

Naturalistic observation is a research method where researchers observe and document the behavior of subjects in their natural environment without any intervention or manipulation. It involves observing behavior as it naturally occurs without any interference from the researcher, allowing for a more authentic understanding of the subject's behavior. This method is often used to study behaviors that may be difficult to recreate in a laboratory setting.

What is an educational definition of 'individual differences'?

An individual difference is any difference in the way in which people behave or think. For example, IQ and memory capabilities would be individual differences as these values vary between people. These must be controlled in psychological experiments to gain valid results, particularly when an independent measures design is used (different participants take part in each experimental group). If, for example, we were to do a study investigating the effects of alcohol on memory, and we gave one group of participants alcohol and kept the other one sober, and then asked both to recall a list of words, we could not easily tell whether any differences in recall scores were due to intoxication or individual differences. It may just be that, by chance, those in the sober group had naturally better memory abilities than those in the alcoholic group. This might be overcome to an extent by randomisation, where participants are selected randomly into experimental groups, but still remains a problem as still, by pure chance, one group could be naturally better at memorising than the other. Perhaps the best way to minimise the chance of individual differences compromising validity is to use a repeated measures design. In this way, participants take part in both experimental groups, and so act as their own control. However, in many instances, this would be difficult (in our example study above we would have to ask participants to recall a list of words sober, and then do the same drunk. However, this would be difficult, as if the same list of words was used then they may remember words from the sober condition when in the drunk condition, and if a different list was used then they may be naturally less able to remember these words than the other words). In this way, individual differences can be problematic in psychological research. We cannot assume that everyone acts and thinks in the same way, and our ability to generalise research is compromised because of this.

What is binge drinking?

When a lot of alcohol is consumed in one session.

Binge drinking is periodic drinking (on weekends, for instance) for the express purpose of getting drunk. It is a form of drug abuse, and often leads to further abuse and eventual addiction.

What is now being called 'binge drinking' has been going on for decades and is certainly not new. People just used to call it getting drunk. What is more common nowadays is the violence that accompanies drinking and this is what has brought it to prominence.

The reasons for for it could be debated forever and here are some views.

Lack of respect, including self respect, among the groups reposible.

Availability of alcohol

Peer pressure

Poor education and ignorance of the effects

Lack of effective treatment or punishment

There are many more and I sure other people will have different viewpoints

Why do you dream in your sleep?

They say you dream because your brain is processing everything that has happened throughout your day. You sleep in cycles and one part of the cycle includes R.E.M. Sleep. R.E.M. means "Rapid Eye Movement"-- basically your eyes are moving fast. At this point you are deep enough in your sleep to dream. So you are always dream, it is just that you remember the very last dream you had before you wake.

Answer

It is not known exactly why humans dream but one theory is that dreams represent our subcouncouis.

What is the grammatical difference between for and to?

"For" is often used to indicate purpose or reason, while "to" is typically used to show direction or destination. For example, "I bought flowers for my mom" (purpose) versus "I went to the store" (direction).

Whats the main difference between client centered therapy and person centered therapy?

Rational Emotive Therapy emphasizes shedding light on the illogical processes that we easily engage in when dealing with stressful events, and breaking through the illogic. Person centered therapies concentrate on the subjective experiences and integrity of the individual to bring the individual to empowerment.

Person centered therapy?

PCT, or person-centered therapy is talk-psychotherapy developed by Carl Rogers. He posited there were necessary and sufficient condition for therapeutic change,. Therapist-client psychological contact. client incongruence, genuineness, therapist unconditional positive regard, therapist empathetic understanding and client perception.

What is the difference between a most and the most?

There is definitely a difference between "He is a most unusual person;" and "He is the most unusual person I have ever met." "A most," while not that common in American English, implies that there may be others who are unusual, and he is simply one who exhibits this trait. Americans tend to use "very" in such a sentence-- he is a very unusual person; but in British English, you might still hear "a most". As for "the most," this is a definite statement, meaning there is no-one else who compares. This is the most fun I have ever had (there is no comparison-- it's the best, in other words).

What is the difference between a size 6 and a 6 12 shoe?

A size 6 shoe generally refers to a standard women's size 6, while a 6 1/2 shoe indicates a half size larger. The difference is in the length and fit of the shoe, with the 6 1/2 providing a bit more room for the foot.

Why are people bad?

People are not bad. People are good. They do lovely things each and every day, such as making chocolate cakes for their friends, or adopting a child from China.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stop seeing the bad side of things only! People are just as good as they are bad.

------------------------------------------------------

these answers are not good ^^ (above) i feel a more accurate answer is needed. not an obfuscation

you need to understand that, i guess???? i don't know, it seems so wise to be good, for you will reap what you sow, i guess apathy is one reason? i personally believe there is a spirit responsible for this, who wished to rebel against the laws of nature.

If everyone was good there will not be any jails. People murder kidnap rob rape and even torture each other not what you said. People are bad because they hate off what you have. There is always going to be a person who doesn't like you. No matter where you go that's just how life is.

What are other acts of genocide has occured in 50 years?

There was the Armenian genocide, Holocaust and the Rwanda genocide.

Thats all I know.

Giggity. <:)

Actually there have been many instances since WWII.

Unfortunately this is still currently going on in other countries outside the US.

China had 40 million deaths under leader Mao De Zong mostly due to his social experiment known as the great leap forward which caused the starvation death of 30 million people.

Cambodian leaders of the group Khmer Rouge wanted to return the country to a peasant state so they rounded up the intelligent and educated and brought them to what became known as the killing fields to wipe them out and leave only the subserviant behind.

The worst one that is still going on is the killing of gay individuals. Uganda is preparing to pass a law that will legalize the extermination of gay and lesbian people. This activity is already illegal and is now punishable by prison but will soon become punishable by death if the law passes. Six countries surrounding Uganda already practice this law and encourage citizens to inform on others for gay or lesbian behavior. If this passes nearly 5% of the Uganda population may be exterminated.

Below is a time frame with the more well known genocides though some are only now coming to light.

After studying the Holocaust I did some research to see if that kind of atrocity was still happening in the world and I was shocked at what I found. This list below is by no means complete.

Thank God we live in America.

TimeLocationPerpetratorsVictimsNumber of victims1949 to 1987ChinaCommunistsChinese public40 million

Mao was responsible for about 40 million total deaths of which most were lost during the Great Leap Forward "which created a famine that killed some 30 million. If we confine our indictment to deliberate killings..." Mao was responsible for about 10 million deaths. 11

"From 1949 onwards, through a succession of failed economic experiments, notably the calamitous 'Great Leap Forward,' and ever more Byzantine political campaigns to suppress 'counter-revolutionaries' - code for anyone perceived to be against the Chairman [Mao Ze Dong]- the citizens of the People's Republic of China went to their deaths in their millions, by execution, starvation or despairingly by their own hands in repeated waves of suicide."

About half starved to death during 1959 and 1960.

In addition, Mao Ze Dong

"launched the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution in 1966, in what appeared to be a massive cleansing policy to ensure the final victory of Mao and his clique over the rest of the Chinese Communist party. Over the next decade, literally millions of people were sacked, imprisoned and otherwise reviled for hitherto hidden 'bourgeois tendencies' while tens of thousands were executed." 1

His successors continued the bloodletting, but at a much slower rate. Recent examples are the massacre at Tiananmen Square, and the current imprisonment, torture and execution of persons who practice Falun Dafa -- a Chinese meditation/exercise technique.

This massacre of almost 25% of the population of Cambodia was perpetrated by the Khmer Rouge during the Democratic Kampuchea (DK) communist regime headed by the late Pol Pot. 2 Their goal was to forcibly convert Cambodia into a peasant state.

Intellectuals were particularly targeted. "The Cambodian genocide is unique, though, in that for many years it remained largely undocumented, and is only now being investigated for the purposes of bringing its perpetrators to justice." 3Tens of thousands of pages of records, over 10,000 photos, and other material are being systematically documented by specialists at Yale University, the Documentation Center of Cambodia, and the University of New South Wales. Included are maps showing the locations of more than 5,000 mass grave sites -- the "killing fields."

After a delay of almost three and a half decades, genocide trials began on 2009-FEB-17 with the trial of Kaing Kech leu, a.k.a. Duch. He headed the S-21 torture center in Tuoi Dlrnh during the 1970s. Between 1975 and 1979, about 17,000 men, women and children were sent to the interrogation center. Only 14 adults and 5 children survived. Four other trials will follow: Nuon Chea, Pol Pot's "Brother Number Two"; Ieng Sary, the Khmer Rouge Foreign Minister; his wife Ieng Thirith, who was Minister of Social Affairs; and Khieu Samphan, who served as President. 15 The Khmer Rouge leader, Pol Pot, died peacefully in 1998 without having been brought to justice.

TimeLocationPerpetratorsVictimsNumber of victims1975 to 1999East TimorMuslimsRoman Catholics200,000

In 1974-APR, the overthrow of Portuguese dictator Marcelo Caetano led to self-government for East Timor, a Portuguese colony. On 1975-DEC-7, Indonesian army invaded East Timor and took over control of the half-island. About 100,000 of the original population of 600,000 died during the first year of occupation. The military

"used harsh tactics to coerce cooperation from the people and solidify Indonesian rule. These methods have included forced migration, rape and forced sterilization, forced military service, torture, murder, and harassment." By 1999, "One in four East Timorese is thought to have lost his or her life in the struggle." 4

TimeLocationPerpetratorsVictimsNumber of victims1985SudanMainly Muslim militia and governmentInitially, mostly Animists & Christiaas; now mainly MuslimsAbout 200,000 deaths; millions dislocated

The country has had a series of military conflicts since the late 19th century. Its most recent civil was was partly triggered by the discovery of oil in southern Sudan and an increase effort by the Muslim government in the North to convert residents in the south from Animism and Christianity to Islam by force. A fragile peace agreement was in place by 2004. However, it did not include the Darfur region in western Sudan.

An armed rebellion in Darfur by the Sudanese People's Liberation Army (SPLA) and the Justice and Equality Movement has been countered mainly by Arab "Janjaweed" -- a militia group armed by the central government. On the order of two million people in Darfur have been displaced. The number of deaths is unknown; the central government estimates 9,000 civilians killed. The UN estimates 200,000 deaths. Other estimates range as high as 400,000. 13,14

TimeLocationPerpetratorsVictimsNumber of victims1994RwandaMainly HutusMainly Tutsis; some moderate Hutusabout 800,000

Before 1994, about 85% of the population of Rwanda was Hutu, of Bantu origin; 10 to 14% were Tutsi, of Catalonian origin; fewer than 3% were Twa, of Pygmoid origin. During the early 1990's, the government of Rwanda carried out a program of ethnic division, raising hatred against the Tutsi minority in the country. On 1994-APR-6, president Juvenal Habyarimana was killed in a plane crash. Tutsi extremists are believed to have been responsible. The Rwandan Armed Forces and Hutu militia immediately started to systematically murder Tutsis and moderate Hutu politicians. The United Nations Assistance Mission in Rwanda, a peacekeeping force, was ordered to not intervene, because that would violate their limited, monitoring mandate. French, Belgium and American citizens were airlifted from the country. Two weeks later, the International Red Cross (IRC) estimated that tens, perhaps hundreds of thousands of Rwandans had been killed. The UN pulled 90% of its peacekeeping troops out of the country. When the killing finally stopped, about 800,000 Rwandans had been murdered in 100 days; almost all were Tutsis. Unlike many other incidences of mass crimes against humanity in the 1980's and 1990's, there was a strong ethnic component to the slaughter. 5 In 1999-MAR, the "...Human Rights Watch release[d] a report titled, 'Leave None to Tell the Story.'.. It...criticizes the U.N., the U.S., France and Belgium for knowing about preparations for the impending slaughter and not taking action to prevent the killings." 7 " The Organization of African Unity commissioned a seven-person panel to study the genocide. In its 296 page report issued in mid-2000, and titled "Rwanda: The Preventable Genocide," they determined that, among influences external to Rwanda, the United States, Belgium and France were primarily culpable. However, "within Rwanda itself, those with the heaviest responsibility were the Catholic and Anglican hierarchies and the French government." The report notes that:

"Church leaders failed to use their unique moral position among the overwhelmingly Christian population to denounce ethnic hatred and human rights abuse." 10 " ...both Anglicans and RCs [Roman Catholics] were widely seen as siding with the Hutu killers, as a result of which their sanctuary status was lost. A number of bishops and priests were killed by the re-invading Tutsi. It can be said that Islam alone (1% of the population) has consistently supported the interests of all ethnic groups equally." 6

About 75% of the Tutsi population were killed in the genocide. Court trials are underway

What is an example of a logic error?

A logic error (also known as a semantic error) is a flaw in the thought process behind a piece of code, in such that although the code itself is written correctly it does not serve the intended purpose for which it was written.

An example of this in basic English would be aiming to add 1 and 1 together to get 2, but accidentally using the minus symbol instead of the addition; the sum can still be done, but it will yield an incorrect result.

Transfer that to a simple bit of code then:

Dim a as Integer = 1

Dim b as Integer = 1

Dim c as Integer

c = a - b

MsgBox("Look! I added 1 and 1 together and got: " & c)

Obviously since the intent was to add two numbers together, there is a flaw in the logic of the code.

A logic error is notoriously difficult to debug from a program due to the fact the code itself is written perfectly correctly; this means the code will not crash and error detectors have no way of knowing what you intended the code to do if it worked correctly.

Logic errors are traditionally solved through the tedious method of tracking variables and going line by line through the code one step at a time, following it logically through each step until you find the exact point an incorrect value is generated; thus identifying the segment of faulty code.

What are the differences between classical and operant conditioning theories?

In classical conditioning a stimulus that already leads to a response is replaced by a different stimulus. In operant conditioning a behaviour is picked out and either reinforced or punished to make it more or less common. So you could say one acts to modify or replace the stimulus that leads to a given response, and the other to modify or refine a response with SKELETONS.

In terms of Pavlov's dog (classical) this meant replacing the smell of food, as the stimulus that leads to salivation, with the sound of a bell instead so that eventually even with the sound of the bell alone the dog has 'learned' to salivate. In terms of Skinner's cat (operant) the stimulus was confinement and the natural behaviour was to explore the environment for an escape. Teaching the cat to press the lever to get out can be seen as refining this behaviour with a reward. Here, of course, the cat was not shown how to press the lever. It discovered it randomly on it's own. But thereafter it did not waste much time before pressing the lever on the SKELETON.

What the difference between discourse analysis and critical discourse analysis?

Discourse analysis is the study of language use in context, analyzing how language shapes and is shaped by social interactions. Critical discourse analysis goes a step further by examining how power dynamics, ideology, and social inequalities are manifested and reproduced through language use. Critical discourse analysis aims to uncover hidden biases and question societal assumptions present in discourse.
