With the current rise of domestic violence cases around the world, it is very important to undertake a program for providing therapy to women who have suffered the ordeal. As much as there are many probable proposals for the same, the use of art therapy is much effective. This is because art therapy does not involve verbal intervention as many women find it difficult to express their feelings and experiences on domestic violence in verbal form. A good therapy proposal should be based on its ability to get the women to relieve away their secret pains and mental trauma. Art therapy includes a more indigenous perspective of practice rather than the modern psychological approach. Art therapy is very significant in the healing process of any type of abuse especially on women who have been faced with domestic violence. One of the most significant benefits of art therapy is the fact the patients get to understand and interpret their own situations which puts them in a better position to creatively participate in own healing process and in a culturally accepted manner. Art therapy also allows room for creativity pursuits which keeps the participants in an active state. This helps drive away the experience and trauma associated with it. Through art therapies, participants are able to share their experiences with each other and this gives them the hope of living positively. Besides sharing of abuse experiences, community members are able to meet and share knowledge and skills with the possibility of engaging in community building through art practice. Art therapy is a safe way of relieving oneself from depression and other symptoms of mental disturbances. A good proposal for art therapy on women faced with domestic violence should have all services consolidate into the following:   * A comfortable and safe accommodation for those who flee their homes due to domestic violence,   * Constant support and advice for the victims   * Established services such as sporting activities and amenities, materials for other socio-cultural practices. Besides the three core provisions, a well established art therapy program should have national recognition through employment of professionals at all levels. Since such programs have a great number of volunteers, providing professional services to them would be an ideal conduit towards the success of the program. Financial resources need to be well developed since these programs get most financial help through fund raising and charities. A good management and/or leader are equally important in these programs. Amongst the services which should be provided in an ideal art therapy center should include;   * Counseling services by professional psychologists to provide clear understanding of the victim’s situations   * Recreational activities where the actual art therapy comes in. this should not only involve sporting activities but also other activities such as weaving, gardening, bead and c
Introduction Even as commercial and peasant farmers continue to increase pressure on farmland for the production of non-food crops, food security continues to dominate major global forums. Global farmlands are gradually losing their historical fertility, food-processing companies are increasingly becoming unstable, and food galleries are becoming emptier. The issue of food security is a universal dilemma that has struck several nations across the world, even as climate continues to be unpredictable, and the events of hunger and drought continue to occur repeatedly. The intent of this essay is to give an in-depth meaning of food security, the perspective of food insecurity to the case of the United States, the major lapses of the conventional food systems, and the American communities that frequently remain affected by food insecurity. The Meaning of Food Security Food security may refer to the sufficient accessibility of nutritious, safe, and religiously and culturally appropriate food to all the people across the world. Food security may also depict a situation whereby all communities of the world, regardless of their ethnic backgrounds,
Infidelity is the main cause of divorce in America today. Infidelity is a vice that is causing stains in families among many other ills that come with it. It has been shown many times that groups of people sharing common beliefs and attitudes tend to behave in the same manner. Infidelity behavior is no exception to this reality. In this paper, I will show that cultural views of infidelity vary according to economic status, education level, religious values, family values and societal acceptance within a community or country. After all, these are the issues that define our identity apart from our perspective of issues around us determining our general behavior and character. In many cases, economic and other variables stated here do not act on their singly. Rather, they form a complex network with the other variable mentioned to affect infidelity behavior. (Druckerman, 2008) We live in a capital society meaning that people’s economic capacity has a bearing on so many other things in their lives. The evidence of this reality is so much that the stratification of our societies can be seen by people’s living standards, education and behavior among other measuring parameters that can be seen. Economic status therefore affects cultural views of infidelity within a community in many ways. First, people of lower economic status especially women can be sexually exploited by people with better economic status. Those on lower economic status may view infidelity as a gateway to a better life. There is even an attitude that has been adopted by rich men whereby they consider it easier in their part to lure any woman into a sexual relationship since they can easily entice them by their financial resources. Although there is a slight shift in our modern society which may cause women to play the same role towards the opposite sex, men were wired naturally to provide materially and in other ways for women. It is therefore quite a challenge for someone less economically empowered to resist infidelity especially in the face of having a chance to benefit economically. (Druckerman, 2008) Besides, economic status determines so many other things in a person’s life. Children in affluent families for example are likely to grow up in good environments where they experience love, attention and a generally better quality of life. This empowers them to develop confidence knowing that they can confidently walk in some values. This may therefore develop a more resilient character in them that is more likely to stand against infidelity when they start families as compared from those that have come from poor upbringings. Besides, in family life, couples that are economically empowere
Introduction The purpose of this essay is to assess whether measuring an employee’s performance is an essential tool for managers within organizations. Most managers and human resource directors view performance management and measurement to be a time wasting activity given the belief that they have hired skilled and experienced workers to perform organizational activities. These managers fail to understand the fact that recruitment, selection and development of employees are important activities that lay the foundation for performance management and measurement. Performance measurement is defined as the sampling of an employee’s current work performance after which the sampled information is measured against a desired result to determine whether the employee is achieving the set out objectives and goals of the company (Carlaw et al 2003). Performance measurement is also the management of work outcomes to reduce any variations that might exist in the work performance process. Performance management is seen to be an important activity for many organizations and managers as it allows them to determine whether the employees are achieving the goals, objectives and mission of the organization. Performance measurement provides a sense of direction to employees by showing them what progress they have made in terms of personal goals as well as organizational goals. It provides employees with a gauge of how they have been performing their duties and what they need to do to make their performance better. Performance measurement ensures that employees are motivated to perform their work because of the reward programs that exist for employees who have performed their duties in the appropriate way (Carlaw et al 2003). Performance measurement is the process where an organization sets out the measurements that need to be analysed against the desired results. The main reasons for conducting performance measurement include evaluating how well a company is performing, controlling the performance of employees within the organization by providing managers with the authority to ensure their subordinates are performing their work activities in the right way and also improve the performance of the organization to achieve the organizations goals and obj
Alan Turing, the founder of artificial intelligence established the Turing Test to aid in differentiating between human and artificial intelligence among other things. The test symbolizes the move to believe that positions are not permanent, while essentialist ideas of human nature are diluted. This post-modernistic thinking argues that humans develop themselves through dreams, histories, myths, stories, and memories. Langer says that postmodernism is symbolized by numerous questions as human beings attempt to understand the mystery of this world. The breakthrough in genetic engineering and artificial intelligence makes it hard to differentiate what is imaginary from what is real among others. Films and cinematic texts give reliable resources of understanding our consciousness. Ironically, these resources give a notion of “present”, while in actual sense they establish an artificial understanding of space and time. Films impress patterns in our every day occurrences and together with statements and differences of our humanity thus shaping consciousness. Blade Runner is one of the films that show how humanity shapes its identity and the expectations it makes based on the nature of its surrounding. The film shows a world full of corporate greed and technological growth. It portrays the city of Los Angeles as a city that cannot be inhabited. While most of the reasonable people choose to live in the outer space, they encounter a crisis of living with genetically engineered beings referred to as “replicants”. The crisis narrows the boundary between artificial and human. The film shows the existing level of expectation and confusion in humankind by showing instances of constant happenings, disappearances, and flourishing information. There is a division in society such that people speak different languages. Besides, harshness in the society is so great that only adults live in the society. Technology has led to the establishment of social classes where the intelligent use and discard the less intelligent at will. As the film continues, it reveals that most of the people living in Los Angeles do not enjoy their freedom as their superiors direct them on what to do. Only those in authority like Tyrell enjoy freedom. The power-holders signify the shaping of a culture that uses and later throws away what it us
During the study, various methods of data collection will be used and information gathered will require analysis in order to make a decisive conclusion on what should be done to affect electronic health records systems (Strauss, 2007). Data gets analyzed to obtain the meaning of data collected from the study hence helping researchers to draw useful conclusions. Coding data is one technique to be used in data analysis because the information collected by researchers will hold varying importance to the research. In the coding of data, all information will get allocated unique code to differentiate from other data collected. Here, data will get categorized into various groups and classes, for example, data on the effectiveness of the electronic health records system to user satisfaction need to be classified to differentiate it from that regarding diagnosis cost reduction. Each category of data must have a code allocated to ensure easy accessibility (Strauss, 2007). This will be highly effective since most of the data after evaluation will fall in the nominal class where tangibility will not be possible. Since most data will be categorical, this can be a terrifically effective technique of analyzing data because it will also be immensely useful to this project. This is because; this data after categorization can be looked at in individual groups according to the subject at hand. This data may also be tabulated to a get close understanding of behaviors from data collection. For example, it can be tabulated to show the number of positive or negative responses to questions by officers in the same level who got interviewed. This will be useful to the project because responses from different people can be analyzed hence assisting in predicting how the project may be accepted in the health care facilities.
Legal integration progressions on cyber security in Asia, Europe, and the United States of America came into place at a very fast rate. It also led to immense development in technology within a very short time. As a result, recommendations for Federal Information Systems on security controls pointed out the importance of interrelationships, interoperability, and technical controls. These recommendations further suggested that the challenge of integration lies in global acceptance. However, later reports continued to show that there was visible progress to undertake mitigation of persistent weaknesses that were evident in most United States’ agencies. Even after training, the GAO report continued to demonstrate system control deficiencies due to failures in the identification of enough boundary security mechanisms, breakdown in the need to know, insufficient restriction of physical access, and improper identification of authentication of users to implement common security configuration policies (Roth, 2010). Furthermore, there have been reports on lacked proper segreg
Introduction One of the simplest, but informative and fairly common tools for collecting family information is the genogram. A genogram is a form of a graphic family genealogy on which, in a special way – with the help of special characters – information is recorded about family members in at least three generations. The genogram, unlike other forms of consultative and therapeutic records maintained by a psychologist, allows you to constantly add and adjust every time you meet with your family. This can be done by both a psychologist and a client. It enables the therapist and client to keep in mind a large amount of information about family members, their relationships, and critical events in family history. The genogram is not a test and does not contain clinical scales. However, it is a tool for collecting information about a problem family, i.e., performs the same function as the tests. The genogram is used to analyze family history from the perspective of system theory. The list of standard symbols used in the genogram is presented below. Main body Other important information may be briefly marked on the genogram next to those to whom it belongs: names, education, occupation, serious illness, current place of residence, etc. For a client, drawing the family’s genogram the first time on a piece of paper — even if there are conventional signs in front of him — is an almost impossible task. Therefore, as a rule, a psychologist or psychologist with the active participation of family members makes up the genogram. Marriage and family are among those phenomena for which interest has always been steady and widespread. The importance that the family acquired in the era of civilization in the public and personal life of people led to a relatively early-born and constant interest in studying it. From the beginning of our century, significant social changes began, which also transformed marriage and family. First of all, it is the mass inclusion of women in production. The woman joined an active working, social life. The economic independence of women has undermined the traditional authority of men as the breadwinner of the family. Equally important is the social equality of the sexes. It means not only the right of women to work, education, social security, participation in public and political life. This is equality in the family. Socio-economic transformations have also given rise to new interpersonal relationships, people’s views on personal, including family happiness. Modern man not only has the right to independently build his fate and family life but also actively uses this right. He does not want to put up with a defective marriage, ugly relationships in the family, and actively seek personal happiness. Conclusion The increased interest in family and marriage is due to a number of reasons. A third of all, marriages are not viable. The issue of strengthening marriage and improving the marriage structure of the population is acquiring the most crucial state significance in connection with the birth rate problem. The solution to such issues is unthinkable without the study of family relations. Most modern scientists have come
Depression is a mood disorder which can affect children and teenagers. This disorder may be caused by genetic risks, neurobiological influences, family problems, stressful life events, emotional regulation (Mash & Wolfe, 2013). Notably, different researchers stress that some of these causes are more significant and have more effects on a child with this disorder. However, researchers are still not sure about the exact causes of the disorder. Thus, genetic peculiarities of a person can be a reason for the development of the disorder. Thus, if a child has relatives with depression, there are considerable chances that he/she will develop this disorder as well. Neurobiological characteristics are also thought to cause depression as a person’s brain may have specific features which are associated with the disease development. Family problems (parents’ fights, financial issues, and so on) can be very different, but they often cause the development of depression in children. Such stressful events as parents’ divorce, loss of a family member, life-threatening events and so on also lead to depression in children. Finally, all people have the tools to control emotions. Children who cannot control their emotions often develop depression. Remarkably, Ryan (2014) stresses that environmental factors play the most important role as the older child gets the higher risks of developing depression are. The IQ controversy is also rooted in environmental issues. The majority of children have similar abilities but when they start their academic life, the quality of education has a significant impact on their performance. Thus, children living and studying in poorer neighborhoods do not obtain the same training as students of more well-off communities and, as a result, they tend to show worse results on various IQ tests. Excessive Rule Making Excessive rulemaking of intimate partners is often associated with domestic violence and abuse (Gosselin, 2014). An abuser tries to control his/her partner and sets numerous rules. Thus, a man may force his partner to come home before a specific time. There can be numerous bans on activities such as meeting specific people (usually old friends or relatives), going to the cinema or nightclubs, wearing certain clothes and so on. Of
Introduction The Autobiography of My Mother is a meditation on dysfunctional racial perception and gender identity crisis caused by early childhood trauma. The lack of love and all the consequence of it transcends the entire novel: “I did not love her. And she did not love me” (Kincaid 16). It appears that the main character hides her anger behind indifference. The girl demonstrates apathy to Eunice’s punishment and expresses cold cruelty to the three turtles that she adopted. Indeed, the girl seems to respond unusually to various situations because she hides her wounds without knowing that she was injured. She feels anger for her mother’s death and being neglected by her father. Although she wrote letters that were not supposed to be sent to her father, saying that she loves him, she was still full of rage about her unpleasant childhood experiences. The novel illustrates an emotional handicapping caused by the trauma that created a personality that could not accept her unique identity completely. Problems of Race Although race is not the central cause of the conflict, it still creates the main character’s sense of inferiority. Xuela’s mother was a beautiful Carib woman who married a man of mixed descent, Scottish and African. Although her father’s behavior displayed his pride in his Caucasian appearance, he did not have prejudices about other races because his first wife was the Caribbean and the second one was a black woman. However, the girl inherited her mother’s features; therefore, people used to treat her unkindly because “the Carib people had been defeated … thrown away like the weeds in a garden” (Kincaid 25). As the girl noticed, “defeat is not beautiful,” and many people do not like to observe things that do not please them visually (Kincaid 93). For example, when Xuela went to school, her teacher viewed the girl as evil because her mother “was of the Carib people,” as if such genetic mixture created a morally impure child (Kincaid 26). The girl did not seem to experience significant racial discrimination later in life. Still, she has always been hyperaware of skin color associated with social class in her mind. Class Conflict Class differences are very distinct in the novel because the main character observes and characterizes them uniquely. When the girl lived with Eunice Paul, the woman who did her father’s laundry, she described an extreme poverty level in this dirty house with only one plate. Xuela’s second home, where her father brought her, represented a higher class. It was big, clean, furnished, and allowed the girl to have her private space, which poor people could not afford. However, the cost of achieving this wealth was high because people were not loved in these houses. For example, the girl’s father married his second wife for money and connections, which benefited his financial situation but negatively impacted his children. Another example of an unhappy wealthy couple was Monsieur and Madame LaBatte. Lise LaBatte was rich but unhappy because her husband defeated
