General Instructions: Below are a variety of discussion topics related to chapters 1 and 2. For this DB, you should choose one o

f these topics and post an original thread thoroughly addressing all aspects of that item in at least 2-3 well-written paragraphs. When creating your thread, use an informative subject line (e.g., My Research Project about Studying). Your original post is worth a maximum of 8 points. You must post your own original thread before you can see what others have posted.
You also need to give thoughtful responses to at least 2 classmates’ original posts. How can you continue the conversation? What questions do you have for your classmate? Each response is worth 1 point for a maximum of 2 points.

All original posts and responses should be based on evidence from the book or video lectures, and your critical thinking skills. If sources outside the textbook are used, you must include the reference. Use this assignment to show me what you are learning!

As with all DB’s, you will lose one point if you begin participating in a discussion board on the last day it is open. This DB is worth a maximum of 10 points.

Chapter 1 - Perspectives: Traditionally, psychology can be divided into different perspectives, such as psychoanalysis, behaviorism, humanism, multiculturalism, evolutionary psychology, cognitive psychology, neuroscience, positive psychology, and biopsychosocial theory. Psychologists who associate themselves with a specific perspective generally view human behavior and mental processes as being explained by the concepts that their perspective emphasizes. Most people view smoking cigarettes as an undesirable behavior due to the increase risk for health related problems. A psychologist could potentially explain why someone would engage in this behavior based on their psychological perspective. In your original thread, pick 3 of the above perspectives (italicized) and describe in your own words the main focus of each perspective. Then, give an explanation for why someone might smoke cigarettes using each perspective. Lastly, state which perspective, in your opinion, provides the best explanation or is the most useful for understanding this behavior?

Chapter 1 – Research: Columbus State Community College has a very diverse student population with regard to gender, race, ethnicity, nationality, age, etc. Suppose you are interested in learning about how studying affects student grades at CSCC. Maybe you’re interested in the number of hours per day students study or the types of study strategies students use. The research questions about studying are endless! Using what you’ve learned in Chapter 1, imagine that you are going to do your own research project about studying and create a post answering all of the following questions. Be sure to consider the large diversity among the student population as you design your research project.

What is your specific research question?
What is your theory and specific hypothesis?
Describe your sample of research participants especially related to demographics at CSCC.
How are you going to recruit your research participants?
Which research design do you think would be best for testing your hypothesis? Explain why.
Describe your research method in detail (e.g., descriptive, correlational, experimental).
What ethical challenges could come up with your research project?
Chapter 2 - Brain Areas: In Chapter 2, we are learning about many different areas of the brain and their associated functions. Using this information, imagine that you have a rare disease that will destroy one area of your brain. Choose 3 specific brain areas (must be discussed in Chapter 2) that you might consider giving up if you were able to choose. Name and describe (in your own words) the functions of these 3 brain areas. Then, pick one of these 3 areas to be destroyed. Describe why you are willing to destroy it. ]

Select the correct statement about the physical factors influencing pulmonary ventilation.
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Option (b).

Explanation:

Pulmonary ventilation is the mechanism of respiration in which the oxygen is inhaled in the body and carbon dioxide is exhaled out due to the pressure difference in the lungs and the environment.

The surface tension in the alveoli is decreased by the presence of surfactant. The increase in the surface tension of the alveoli increase the force that will require the additional muscles to work properly.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).

Novay_Z [31]

The physical activity health guidelines require metabolizing about <u>150 to</u> <u>400</u> calories during moderate physical activity on most days of the week.

The intake of calories in the food provides the energy to do work. A very low intake of calories may result in weight loss and too much of it can make you obese. Physical activities like exercise, cycling, and jogging are necessary to burn calories.  

According to the physical activity health guidelines, adults must do moderate physical activity for at least 2hr a week. And 1 hr intense aerobic exercise a week to burn the calories.

the recommended sun exposure needed by light-skinned individuals without sunscreen and living in sunny climates to produce vitam
kap26 [50]

The most natural approach to get enough Vitamin D is through regular sun exposure. Aim for 10 to 30 minutes of midday sunshine many times per week to maintain appropriate blood levels. Those with darker complexion may require a little more.

<h3>What is Vitamin D ?</h3>

According to the National Institutes of Health, two to three times per week, between five and thirty minutes of unprotected sun exposure to your face, arms, legs, or back between the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. is sufficient for your body to produce all of the D3 it requires. Vitamin D synthesis can be inhibited by sunscreen.

Your skin tone, age, dietary habits, and the environment in which you reside all have a role. In general, scientists believe that 5 to 15 minutes, or up to 30 minutes if you have dark skin, is approximately right to get the most benefit without endangering your health. If you wear sunscreen, you can spend more time outside and yet receive the same result.

In the continental United States, UV rays are typically highest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. (9 a.m. to 3 p.m. standard time). The UV Index predicts each day's UV ray intensity. Avoid overexposing your skin to the sun if your area's UV index is 3 or higher.
