... demand. With falling demand for output,
business investment sank. High tariffs prevented
an export-driven growth stimulus (2). (1) Flexible
and falling prices, wages, and interest rates
could offset an economic slowdown in several ways.
In a business downturn, a decrease in labor demand
and layoffs lead to a decrease in wages. Lower
wages reduce the relative price of employing labor
relative to capital and create an offsetting
increase in the demand for labor. If prices fall

Gender Boundaries Al 1998
1,480 words
Boundaries are everywhere. Boundaries surround
careers, streets, property and especially people.
They are social, political, cultural and
professional. One of the first things we learn as
children is to stay within the lines; never
overstep our boundaries. Communicating within
one's boundaries can be difficult. Even more
complicated however, is attempting to communicate
across those boundaries. Miscommunication and
misunderstanding are common when members of
different groups converse (Mulac, Erl...

Left Arm Degas Painting
395 words
Upon first impression one might see a nude as
merely the representation of sexual desire. This
is true in the instance of the Venus Anadyomne
painted by Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres (plate
1), a typical representation of the nude in the
mid-to-late 1800 s. However, in the case of Edgar
Degas, whose nudes are often sensually portrayed,
the sexual nature of the nude is not the only
message of the painting. Carol M. Armstrong said,
the female nude has been linked... to what we

The Stroop effect shows how selective attention is
utilized to attend to a task that requires the
subject to selectively focus on one of several
different stimuli. Stroop's findings can be seen
in parts of everyday life, such as a mother being
able to hear her own childs cry over many other
children in the same room. The Stroop experiment
tests the ability to name the ink color of colored
words under conditions where the word meanings and

World War Ii Moral Judgement
1,628 words
Obeying authority in certain situations can place
another individual's health or life at stake.
World War II is an example of this. A member of
the German officer's corps, when ordered to
slaughter victims, had no remorse feelings about
killing them due to the fact that within his mind
he was acting rightly. This shows how people are
not always going to feel guilt or remorse feelings
for their actions. There are times when people are
ordered to do something even when they don't want
to. One mad ...

Patty Ann had her special expression again, the
kind that made folks say she was the best. That

You cant play with He-man, hes not for girls! This
phrase still echoes in my mind as I reminisce
about my childhood playtime. As I reached for a
He-man action figure from the toy box, I was
handed a Barbie doll or a My Little Pony figurine.
At that time, I was too young to realize the great
chasm that gender had created for such a simple
task as playing with toys. However, looking back,
it becomes clear that gender, itself, plays a key
role in the everyday lives of boys and girls. In

Negative Effects Of Alcohol On People

It is an undisputed fact that balance is the key
concept to a healthy and happy life. People can
enjoy almost everything without being negatively
affected as long as they have balance. Alcohol is
one of those elements that terribly require such
balance. It is not a secret anymore that extreme
use of alcohol brings about seriously adverse
effects on people such as lack of concentration
and tendency to using drugs. The first, maybe the
most adverse, effect of alcoholism on people is
that it causes...

Observation of Communication- Women are more
noticeably shy then men. Non-verbally, their body
language seems to communicate feelings of great
uncertainty and self-consciousness. For example, I
observed a woman in a bus en route to the Cherry
Hill Mall. Her and a young man sitting directly
across from her were engaged in what was
apparently a mutual flirt. But the man seemed much
more confident and cocky than did the female. For
one thing, he was calm and relaxed. The woman,
however, kept her ar...
