Literature Review Part IV-Social Psychology Of Self-Efficacy

/in /by

Final Project: Creating the Literature Review SectionThis week, you will develop Part 4 of the Literature Review section. While developing Part 4, use the following guidelines:Find at least two articles on the selected topic (topic is on “Social Psychology of Self-efficacy”)using the  Online Library databases (EBSCOhost or ProQuest).Write a short summary (one to two paragraphs) for each article.Write a brief analysis (one to two paragraphs) for each article and relate each analysis to your course and text readings.Using APA format, be sure to parenthetically cite your sources, and Reference on a separate page.

Attached you will find the outline template to the topic i have chosen. i also a

Discuss Materials and Corrosion.

/in /by

Hi, need to submit a 1500 words paper on the topic Materials and Corrosion. Very often corrosion results in the formation of oxides and salts and the overall physical properties of the materials affected by corrosion are changed rendering the material useless in most cases. The major types of corrosion are discussed in the following paragraphs.

The most important feature of this type of corrosion is the contact with a stagnant solution which takes place in interstices, near seals, and in cervices made for nuts and rivet heads. The metals and alloys used in chemical plants and other industrial applications are covered with passive films of protective coatings in order to prevent contact with high concentrations of Cl- and H+ ions. When such places are left unclean for long durations after long usages of the plant, sand, and other substances also get deposited near metals and alloys which prevent the proper application of protective coatings. In such a scenario the crevices and interstices are more likely to come in direct contact with corroding media. The corroding fluids which commonly contains high concentrations of chloride ion are likely to get accumulated in the crevices made for nuts, rivets or any other type of hole. The prolonged contact with such chemical fluids starts the oxidation of the metals. The direct contact with aerated chloride rich media creates a differential aeration cell which destroys the passivity of the material. The oxidized metal starts dissolving into the chemical which is in contact with the metal, in the presence of oxygen and the prolonged contact can corrode the material completely.

The best way to prevent crevice corrosion is to prevent crevices. This can be done by using welds in place of bolts and rivets in joints. The design of various components should be done in such a way that there is always a drainage mechanism for the accumulating fluid so that the harmful corroding liquids do not come in contact with the metals for a long duration of time.&nbsp.&nbsp.

ETHICS OF GENETICS TESTING

Genetic testing seeks to identify the presence of mutations in genes and chromosomes that have been linked to certain diseases and conditions. Lab technicians screen samples of an individual’s tissue, blood, or saliva for a suspected DNA mutation to confirm a diagnosis or suggest a predisposition to disease. They can also look for the presence or absence of certain proteins that would indicate abnormal gene function. Some tests use short pieces of DNA (called probes) to search for complementary sequences among the 3 billion base pairs of an individual’s genome. If a mutated sequence is found, the probe will bind to it and flag the mutation.
The most widespread form of testing for genetic disorders is newborn screening, through which several million newborns in the U.S. alone each year are tested for abnormal or missing gene products. Another form of testing, carrier testing, helps couples learn if they carry a recessive allele for inherited disorders that they might pass on to their children. But the form that attracts the most scrutiny is predictive gene testing, which seeks to identify people at risk of getting a disease before any symptoms are present. Tests are already in use for a range of conditions that include amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer’s disease, inherited breast and ovarian cancers, cystic fibrosis, Huntington’s disease, and Tay-Sachs disease. In some cases, lifestyle changes or medical interventions can reduce the likelihood of a disease developing. However, for many genetic disorders, there are no treatment options.
People have many different reasons for taking a genetic test. A negative test result for a person with a family history of genetic disease can offer a sense of relief. If a mutation is found, a person may be able to change certain health habits or receive early treatment to help prevent or slow the onset of disease. Even if there is no treatment option, just knowing about the disease might help people make important planning decisions about their family, insurance coverage, and career.
However, there are reasons why someone might not want to be tested. Current tests cannot entirely assess someone’s disease risk. For example, most diseases are a complex interplay of genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. Test results may provide some people with false assurance or needlessly alarm others who might never actually get a disease. If a person learns that he or she is predisposed to a disease for which no cure or prevention exists, that person or his or her family members might fall victim to anxiety or depression. Further, testing positive for the presence of a disease gene might provoke a difficult, life-altering decision: Should the person have preventive treatment, such as radical surgery, to lower the risk of actually contracting the disease?
Genetic disease testing also raises ethical considerations relating to privacy concerns. For example, if you were at higher risk for developing a condition like Alzheimer’s disease or breast cancer, while you might want to know about it, how might other members in your family respond when learning of your test results? And what if someone other than you and your doctor could access such highly personal information and use it against your better interests?

SCENARIO:
Jenny and Jeremy’s grandmother just passed away from Huntington’s Disease. Their father is not having any problems with his health at this time but since he is young he could have the HD gene and not show any symptoms of the disease. He doesn’t want to get tested. Jenny is engaged to be married and her fiancé is pressuring her to get tested. Jeremy has been tested but is not revealing results to his family.
