High blood-sugar levels are toxic to nerves and blood vessels, prompting the body to react to what it sees as an emergency. This results in low blood-sugar levels, which leads to irritability, mood swings, insomnia, poor concentration, aggressive behavior and cravings for more sugary things" (Colson, 2006)
A recent study "Effect of breakfast composition on cognitive processes in elementary school children," in the journal Physiology & Behavior (85(5), 635-645) in 2005 found that children who ate oatmeal for breakfast did better on school tasks involving memory, attention, and visual perception than children who ate sugary cold cereals or no breakfast at all. Oatmeal has a higher fiber and protein content, takes longer to digest, and raises the blood glucose level more slowly than some other foods (Delisio, 2006)
CO2 is not only the main cause of global warming, when a person inhales it, CO2 "impairs the flow of oxygen to your brain…contribute to respiratory illness, and aggravate existing heart and lung disease." ("News About Cars") And while computers have made communication easier and information more available, it has also allowed criminals an entire new virtual universe to commit crimes that can effect the lives of people in the real world
For instance, when I watch the news, technology, derived from science, allows local television stations to provide "higher quality newscasts;" including weather and traffic. (Rosenstiel, 2008, p
Scientific management is the idea that the management of workers along scientific principles can greatly improve both the efficiency and productivity of the entire production process, "obtaining the maximum output of each man and machine." (Taylor, 1915, p
Scientific Theory Scientific Method Operational Definitions The author of this short report is asked to review a series of six claims that are supposedly scientific and fact-based in nature and review them for efficacy and whether they can be support. The author has chosen the claim that no one has ever been abducted by aliens but instead thoughts and visions are beamed into their head (Rogo, 1990)
All of the other components of the project will be to answer the question posed. Scientists have stated that "almost all scientific inquiry begins with an observation that piques curiosity or raises a question" (Harris 2012)
Step 4: Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment: An experiment is the way to test whether or not the hypothesis is true or false. Experiments must be designed to test only the question on which the hypothesis is based otherwise it is not an appropriate experiment (Popper 2003)
For example, one recent study found that "a new study finds that while engaging in high levels of physical activity is a good bet for preventing obesity in white adolescent girls, it does not give their black peers the same benefit. The study, published in the Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, found that among black adolescent girls who moved the most at age 12, obesity at age 14 was nearly as likely as it was for those whose activity rates were far lower," a finding which was attributed to the excessively caloric diet of the girls (Healey 2012)
There are three open possibilities in this case; i) that there was improved organizational performance as suggested by the hypothesis; ii) that the program had no noticeable effect on organizational performance; and iii) that the program decreased organizational performance. The specific measures that would be undertaken in this case include: Margin Comparisons: profitability margins measure the cents per dollar gained by the organization from a single dollar spent in investment (Whittington & Delaney, 2007)
The scientific Method in Information Systems and Communication In business information technology, the scientific method provides an effective framework for IT managers to make crucial decisions on, for instance, the computer model that would best suit the nature of the organization, the IT infrastructure that would help the organization realize its goals effectively, the most effective data networks for the organization, and so on. The scientific method helps managers to avoid being guided by bias and intuition in the making of crucial decisions (Zikmund, Babin, Carr & Griffin, 2012)
Cell growth and survival were assessed to measure progress and performance. The control samples contained BAAA and other substances and average ATP levels were measured in control and non-control samples (Mineva et al
Doctoral students might develop cogent hypotheses in their research, and those hypotheses when proven over time may evolve into widely accepted theories in their field. However, repeated testing is the only means by which to solidify theories (Harris, n
Similarly, the case study method allows for the testing of hypotheses using methods other than experimental research designs. Empirical observations are still being carried out in both of these cases, which is why they fall under the rubric of scientific methodologies ("Introduction to Scientific Research," n
The scientific method has long been the preferred means of conducting research in most fields, including both social sciences and hard sciences. Because the scientific methods "demands that the procedures be objective," as well as clearly stated in research papers, bias is minimized (Stangor, 2012)
