Of Stress On Decision Making
1,664 words
Stress must be present to ensure our very being.
One may wonder about the validity of this
statement, but it is quite true. Stress plays a
vital role in the way we make decisions (Massa et
al, 2002, pg 1). Problem solving and decision
making in demanding real-world situations can be
susceptible to acute stress effects which manifest
in a variety of ways depending on the type of
decision. The negative effects of an overload of
acute stress include attentional tunneling,
working memory loss, and r...

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Schizophrenia
INTRODUCTION Schizophrenia is a persistent and

Twenty-five to fifty percent of patients who are

Lucas says Jason is utterly selfish, and utterly

Domestic Violence in America By: Tonya Smith
Domestic Violence in America Domestic abuse in the
United States is a large-scale and complex social
and health problem. The family is perhaps the most
violent group, with the home being the most
violent American institution or setting today

who are murdered are not likely killed by a
stranger during a hold-up or similar crime but are
killed by someone they know. Not surprisingly, the

employer establishes prima facie discrimination,
