In order to understand the single mother community, it is important to not only look at worldly perceptions but also at how single mothers view themselves. This cohort is statistically growing every year. In fact, the Australian Bureau of Statistics (2006) cited that 21% of all families with young children were headed by a single female in Australia in 2011.

While I am in a Psychology class I learn about many psychological concepts, but it is neat to be able to witness them outside of school. Over Thanksgiving break, I saw several psychological concepts being lived out right in front of me. I never realized how many times a day these concepts are used until now. The psychological concepts that I saw being used were hindsight bias, lack of conservation, authority, and positive reinforcement. Every Thanksgiving the Dallas Cowboys football...

At a young age, parents teach their kids what is good and bad, and as they grow up, they keep and develop those moral standards their parents set for them, and those end up becoming their own beliefs. Without consciously thinking about it, people...

In the 1970s, Marvel comics and DC comics released stories that had black leading superhero roles with supporting black characters. These stories were released under a film genre called “Blaxploitation” which featured hyper-masculine black leading roles (Lendrum, 2005) with stereotypical “difficult” black female as their supporting characters. In the Blaxploitation genre, black leading roles were written and directed by white males, thus creating stereotypical and one-dimensional characters that supported the hegemonic patriarchal views about gender and race. With ethnographic knowledge...

In an effort to reestablish the tradition of the “intellectual poet” (“Metaphysical”), T. S. Eliot and the members of the imagist and early modernist schools employ a rather direct method: allusions to classic works of poetry. By incorporating references to texts that exemplify the “chaotic, irregular, fragmentary” (“Metaphysical”) style which mirrors one’s sensory experience of everyday life, Eliot adds both the historical context of the referenced work and the image conjured by the work itself to his own poetry. Pound,...

Diffusion of technology facilitated changes in patterns of trade and travel by making it easier (and more effective) to move from place to place. For example, a traveling by caravel (a Spanish or Portuguese sailing ship of the 15th to 17th centuries) was fast, and it was also small, which aided in its fast travel. One example is Columbus’ Nina and the Pinta. The carrack, a sailing ship of 14th-15th centuries usually built with three masts, was cheap and easy...
