beliefs or evidence-based by Marcel Ray Duriez

 

  • 'Conditions refer to a set of views that guide somebody on how to judge right versus wrong, whereas beliefs refer to a set of doctrines, announcements or experiences a person holds as true, usually with evidence or facts. Both are strongly weaved because expectations influence how a self develops values.' 

  • "There was a positive correlation between beliefs about evidence-based practice and the implementation of evidence-based practice. Beliefs related to knowledge appear to have the greatest effect on the implementation of evidence-based practice. Having knowledge and taking part in evidence-based practice working groups seem important." 

  • (Kjersti Stokke, Nina Rydland Olsen, Birgitt, 1,28,2014) 

  • Understanding the difference between your beliefs and values can be a little complicated.  

  • 'Characters use both to manage their actions and practice and to form their opinions towards different things, but they are essentially separate. Beliefs are the opinions that we generally hold to be reliable, usually without actual documentation or evidence.' 

  • "An anecdote is a specific example, usually grounded in personal, secondary, or incomplete evidence. An anecdote cannot prove a general statement, so avoid treating a single case as proving a general point." 

  • "Analogies provide interest and illumination to a line of argument. Analogic evidence allows a researcher to explain a phenomenon by comparing it to something that is already well known." 

  • "It can also allow a researcher to use to apply a well-understood metaphor to explain social structures and organizational functions. Researchers have to be cautious, however, when creating or using analogies." 

  • "In social research, statistical evidence can provide generalizable and transportable knowledge about broad phenomena and trends. On the way to producing statistical evidence, however, are a lot of important methods and sampling decisions that impact how confident we can be about generalizations." 

  • "In social science research, we are supposed to use well-established or credible citations and sources. The testimony of credible experts — or human subjects — can strengthen an argument. Still, researchers must almost always say why the reader should especially consider that person’s observations, ideas, and perspectives valuable. In setting up testimonial evidence you must provide credentials: details on your methods make your research credible; details on the people providing testimony make them credible." 

  • (Howard,) "Social scientists have to use evidence to explain the dynamics of our economic, cultural and political lives. Powerful arguments use several kinds of evidence, and weak arguments use just one kind of evidence. These are the four forms of evidence we use in supporting our claims." 

  • a. Provides weak support for an argument evidence 

  • b. Acts as a powerful counterexample for dismissing an argument 

  • c. Describes one, or a few best instances all of the same type, general nature, or structure 

  • Statistical Evidence 

  • a. Provides moderately strong or supportive evidence 

  • b. References evidence from experiments or large-scale data collection 

  • c. Summarizes, indexes, or models general phenomena 

  • Analogical Evidence 

  • a. Provides strong or supportive evidence 

  • b. Explains either by comparison to a known phenomenon or common metaphor 

  • "This article throws light upon the eleven main aspects-of-human behaviors. The aspects are- 1. Psychology 2. Personality 3. Interest 4. Attitude 5. Emotions 6. Wishes 7. Prejudice 8. Stereotype 9. Thinking and Reasoning 10. Frustration and Adjustment 11. Deviant Behavior. Aspect # 1. Psychology: Psychology is the science of human behavior; the Behavior of an individual refers to anything an individual does."

  • I am asked why I chose the advertisements that I did, As always with every assignment that I do, I have to be engaged excited, and driven to do research on a topic, if I do not put my full heart into the work that I do then it's not really worth me taking the time of the undertaking to do something that I don't feel completely motivated and excited to sit through and have engagement, to be compelled to move forward in the understanding of studying education and knowledge. even in the graphic design background, they enjoy advertisement because it utilizes creativity of being artistic to give the perception and understanding of a point of view. Scientifically I'm picking apart all the elements, in psychology sociology and anthropology, and mythology, even down to demographics race color, ethnicity, even to the point of Amendment rights for US citizens 

I'm reminded of not having time for one in the absence of time and the theory of time not even really being a thing other than something that humans have created, the lack of or the need or too much, I'm reminded of wasting and a child not having food water shelter and being hungry and the American way of waste and throwaway society, I'm reminded of alcoholism being popular norms and culturally acceptable... And reminded that the tide commercial and a father being the best single parent that he possibly be.’  

Always did love psychology and what makes somebody tick, and digging deep into somebody else's personal, mind, and thoughts is more than enjoyable. I love the idea of culture being mixed with ideas of religious mythology and anthropology studies, the study of people, the ideals of sociology- I'm a student of all Sciences ...And I love being a sponge where I can absorb as much information as I possibly can in any kind of scientific study.  

  • An assumption is a statement that is accepted as true where no proof is given, and Freud doesn't elaborate on how he knows for certain that ashes are the source of the saltiness 

  • A fact is a verifiably true statement, while there is no way to completely verify this statement. 

  • An observation is a statement made based on something the viewer has seen or noticed, and that does not really apply here. 

  • A synthesis is a process of combining ideas to form something new, such as a theory or a new system of belief.

  • “An individual phenomenon, Émile Durkheim was interested in studying the social factors that affect it. His studied social ties within a group, or social solidarity, and hypothesized that differences in suicide rates might be explained by religion-based differences. Durkheim gathered a large amount of data about Europeans who had ended their lives, and he did indeed find differences based on religion. Protestants were more likely to commit suicide than Catholics in Durkheim’s society, and his work supports the utility of theory in sociological research. Theories vary in scope depending on the scale of the issues that they are meant to explain.” 

  • “Paradigms are philosophical and theoretical frameworks used within a discipline to formulate theories, generalizations, and the experiments performed in support of them. Three paradigms have come to dominate sociological thinking, because they provide useful explanations: structural functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism.”

  •  Part A, I believe that the advertisement audience would be of all ages. 

  • I believe the message in the audience would be 1 to sale, 2 to give a message, of fact or need or the - not of needing with no facts at all other than impulse 

  •  Messages- sexist at times, demeaning to women and young girls. 

  • “Many of the subliminal messages that have been found up to now are usually related to sex or religion in some way, and although they are not easy to detect when they are, they cause a lot of controversies. One of the classic examples in marketing with a subliminal message is Disney.”

  • I found the Part B question intriguing because these are paid actors the relationship between these people is fake false and phony it's not real so why we are acting like it should be portrayed as real-natured people? Yet, I would have to say everything needs to have a false 1950s filling, fake happiness and smiling and fingers on cheeks and tongue and cheek.  

  • Susan Krauss Whitbourne, Ph.D., “Although other measures of relationship quality exist, what’s new about the approach taken by Dibble and colleagues is that it is short (12 items) and that it focuses specifically on how the respondent feels about the relationship under scrutiny. Other measures don’t have this first-person point of view, take longer to complete, are outdated, or focus only on romantic, but not other, types of close relationship.”

  • Question E, at this point in my life I'm more than comfortably numb And I really don't care about any kind of advertisement and it isn't making any decisions in my life over that fact above listed, at this point I'm not really buying anything or making any decisions too... thus I'm not letting the influence of other people's beliefs mythology psychology and anthropology and so on make me do any kind of impulse buying now. 

  • “Advertising is important for both new and existing businesses, as it helps to communicate important information to customers and is one of the first steps in building strong relationships. It raises awareness for different brands that are available in the market.”

  • “The business model for advertising is shifting from a mass marketing strategy to a market segmentation strategy in which consumers are broken down into segments with similar demographics. This results in advertainment ads that are more relevant and enjoyable to their targets.”
