Student’s name Instructors Course Date Developmental Psychology Several changes take place in children throughout their childhood stage. Common changes and development in children revolve around psychological processes such as language acquisition, cognitive development, emotional development and identity formation. Developmental psychological examines the degree to which development is a result of nature and nurture. In this case, nature refers to the innateness of an attribute, while nurture refers to the environmental effects of that attribute. The two concepts provide controversial arguments about the natural behaviours of a child. Nativists (nature) argue that children psychological processes are influenced by an organism’s genes, while empiricists nurture explain that psychological processes are influenced by the interaction with the environment (Plomin). This assignment, therefore, ascertains that nature and nurture have a significant impact on children development. Firstly, nature dramatically contributes to the kind of behaviour a child holds. This is because of Biological factors present in a child such as genetic code. Children are usually born with certain genetic traits which they often inherit from their parents. Some of the personality traits the children have…

  Impact of Infrastructure Development on Economic Growth-Analysis Background of the Study             An adequate supply of infrastructural services has been recognized as a core component for growth and productivity.  In recent years, the infrastructure’s role has received significant attention. From an academic perspective, academic literature that attempts to quantify infrastructure’s contribution to income and growth has been on the rise since the initial seminal work by Aschauer (1989) as cited by (Calderón & Servén, 2004). In addition, based on a policy perspective, there has been increased concern related to infrastructural development that can be traced to two global developments that have taken place in the last three decades (Calderón & Servén, 2004). The initial development was the public sector retrenchments from the mid-1980s in a majority of the developed and developing nations, from a dominant position in providing infrastructure (Calderón & Servén, 2004). This was in the context of rising pressures of fiscal adjustments and consolidation. The second event was the acceptance of infrastructural industries to private participation (Sundaram, Chowdhury, Sharma, & Platz, 2016). This was part of a…

            EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE IN NURSING             The explicit, conscientious, and judicious application of current evidence in making decisions regarding the care of a patient is known as an evidence-based practice. It involves the integration of individual proficiency in clinical work with the best existing external medical evidence from systematic study. EBP does not only revolve on applying the best evidence of research into decision making. It covers the use of skills, training, and experience that a health professional possesses and putting into consideration the situation and values of the patients. The context of practice in which the professional is working is also essential. Clinical reasoning is the name given to the entire process of assimilating all this information (LoBiondo-Wood & Haber, 2017). A 20-year-old G1P0A0 patient experiencing abdominal cramping and spotting is a good object of study in the application of EBP in nursing. The study would begin by asking some questions to identify the current best evidence (symptoms) and then assimilate the information to identify what the patient is suffering from. Clearly, these are signs of early miscarriage. By…

                Dairy Farming and Water Pollution in New Zeeland Students Name Institutional Affiliation Date                       Dairy Farming and Water Pollution in New Zeeland Introduction There is an increasing concern about water pollution in the region of Auckland in New Zeeland. In this region, 63% of water bodies have been polluted. There have been dairy farming activities around this region, which have resulted in dirty dairying, which pollutes ecological water bodies. An increase in population has been associated with a high rate of water pollution in that region due to some local activities like the drainage of dairy farm waste products into this region (Weir, 2018). These activities currently pressurize freshwater quality. Therefore in this research paper, I will focus on the social/sustainability issue of dairy farming and water pollution in Auckland in New Zeeland as a problem in that region. I will propose an action that would be better used to address and curb the issue of water pollution, how it could lead…

  The three levels preventive – Primary, Secondary, Tertiary prevention   Prevention comprises of three levels, namely primary, secondary, and tertiary levels. Primary prevention is the act of attempting to avert oneself from contracting a disease. Secondary prevention deals with trying to discover an illness early enough and stop it from worsening. Tertiary prevention is the attempt to enhance one’s lifestyle to lessen the symptoms of a sickness one is suffering. Dekker and Sibai(2001) state that the prevention outlook is based on the idea that the expression, intensity, or increased effect of specific disease prevention. Under primary prevention, aims are made to prevent sickness way before it happens. Primary prevention prevents people from the causing factors of a disease, e.g., letting go of unhealthy lifestyle habits that may result in sickness and escalating resistance to the illness or harm that may occur if a person is exposed. Examples include stopping the use of harmful products, e.g., generic skin products, and advocating for organic skincare mixtures, creating awareness and pushing for healthy behaviors, e.g., healthy eating, regular exercise, and drug abstinence.…
