(2011). Research note-the impact of community commitment on participation in online communities. Information Systems Research, 22 (4), 841-854. Online discussion communities have undoubtedly played an immense role as far as globalization is concerned. They have become the medium of interactions on a broadened range of contexts and topic conversations across the world. However, the success of these online discussion communities depends immensely on the willingness of the participants to invest both their attention as well as time whenever there are no formal role or control structures. It’s argued that these online communities of studies, the majority of the people who participate, more often than not, are driven by self-interests whereas a small number of them emphasizes their motivational altruism. By drawing on their study on…

  The Cause and Effect of Graduating from College Introduction A college education is meant to be an exciting and empowering experience for young graduates. For most people, it is an exciting stage in life where they are optimistic of a better future as a result of graduating from college. College degrees have been linked to a better lifestyle, better-earning power, and overall wellbeing. However, there are also negative effects of graduating from college that causes socio-economic stagnation for most graduates and hence a lower quality of life. In this article, I submit that graduating from college does not guarantee a better future for graduates. The Effects of Graduating from College According to a 2008 college survey, college graduates earn higher incomes than their counterparts on average. While a college graduate made an average of $ 55,000 per annum, a high school graduate made a mere $34,000 a year. It is without a doubt that college graduates earn better than their high school counterparts. However, a 2018 study by the Burning glass and Strada Institute reported that 50% of college…

Surname 1   Name: Tutor: Course: Date: Annotated Bibliography Moorhouse, J. C., & Wanner, B. (2006). Does gun control reduce crime or does crime increase gun control. Cato J., 26, 103. Incidences of crimes have been reduced over time because of the gun control laws that are in place; this is according to the advocates’ arguments. According to the advocates the laws, have provided the kind of guns that are supposed to be sold to the public and the kind of people who are supposed to buy the weapons. It also goes forward and provides how those guns should be kept and how they are supposed to be used. This shows the linkage that is there between the gun control laws and the crime rates. I agree to some extent by the author of this book, that gun control laws can reduce the rates of crimes. Since, they provide specifications on how the guns should be acquired and used and the people who are supposed to purchase them, however, on the other hand, they can not help to control the…

CAUSES AND EFFECTS OF THE WAR OF 1812 4   Running Head: CAUSES AND EFFECTS OF THE WAR OF 1812. 1         Causes and Effects of the War Of 1812 Name Institution Affiliation.                     The war of 1812, also known as the “Forgotten War” was a significant event in the history of the U.S; after the end of the war, it gained respect globally. According to Horsman (1962), the causes of the war are historically agreed to be the result of maritime issues between the U.S and Britain. However, the roots run much deeper below the surface and include even more historical event that is not generally referred to be the causes of the war. What gave rise to this war was the British invasion in the American trade. The European war between Britain and France made America try maintaining its sovereignty. Both Britain and France used strangulation of the economy to defeat each other. In 1802, British soldiers blocked the French possession in Europe. The ships of…

Running head: ANOVA TEST AND T-TEST 3   Running head: ANOVA TEST AND T-TEST 1     ANOVA TEST AND T-TEST Name Course Instructor Date                           ANOVA is a statistical method used to measure the potential differences in the scale level of a dependent variable by a nominal-level variable. For instance, the ANOVA test can be used to evaluate the potential differences in abnormality test scores between two countries. The ANOVA test is generally used in three main ways, which are one-way ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, and N-way ANOVA. One-way ANOVA means that the variables have only one independent variable. For instance, the difference in abnormality can be evaluated in one country; the country can have its categories to compare from. The two-way ANOVA refers to the evaluation of variables using two independent variables. The two way ANOVA can be used to evaluate the difference in abnormality test and gender in a country. Lastly, the N-way is where the researcher uses more than two independent variables. For instance, the…

  NRF Core Capability In case of emergencies, some steps are taken to ensure that the threats are addressed sufficiently. The critical actions are supposed to help alleviate the danger as a result of the emergency. Indeed, when an emergency occurs, there are concerted efforts that throw their weight behind saving lives, property as well as the way of life of the affected area in terms of social, political and economic norms. Hence there are core capabilities or distinct and specific actions that are supposed to be implemented in case of an emergency. Thus the core capabilities are the activities that are crucial during disasters and incorporating the government agencies to ensure that the adverse effects of the crisis are responded to safely. These actions cannot succeed if they are implemented by the government agencies or leaders alone, but everyone in the community has a role in implementing core capabilities. The NRF core capabilities are based on the mission of the NRF which is to prevent, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery efforts. Importance to an emergency manager The emergency manager…

Causes of Obesity and Burden of Obesity in Saudi Arabia The Burden of Obesity The occurrence of weight problems has hugely increased in Saudi Arabia at some point in the period 1988-2005 among adolescents. By the National Growth study, the incidence of obesity in the youth and the children, with the age range between 5-12 years, reached up to 11.3%. Females are observed to get influenced through the rising tiers of obesity as 11.0% and males with an obesity charge of 7.8% (Memish, El Bcheraoui, Tuffaha, Robinson, Daoud, Jaber & Al Rabeeah, 2014). These facts suggest that the woman toddler aged 5-12 years is more affected by weight gain compared to the male child. On the other hand, the adult males (13.8%) below the age of 13-18 years are more affected by weight gain compared women (12.1%) in a similar age category (Memish et al., 2014). The important cause of obesity and overweight are the imbalances of the internal human physique physiology between calories eaten and the calories used up by the body. The reasons behind the rising stages of…

LITERATURE 5   Running head: LITERATURE 1           Answers to Questions Student’s Name Institution Affiliation                         Who were the Anglo-Saxons? Question 1 The foundation of law that defined Anglo-Saxons is based on the preservation of peace. It was an essential element throughout the reign of Anglo-Saxons in specific regions and the leadership was hereditary, led by a King (Swanton, 2018). There were stringent rules that were against violation of Kings Peace. Question 2 King Alfred did not seek to enforce his law through war and conflicts which results in bloodshed, but instead, he is after preservation of peace and harmony in the state. The law code by King Alfred was unique as it proposed on a conservative nature even after receiving threats of rebellion which was evident during his reign. It is an important feature that can be drawn from his reign. Question 3 What sounds unusual in the prologue of Anti-Saxons is how come they decided to be conservative and embrace peace while still…
