Spanking Verses Modern Forms of Behavioral Modification
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page discussion of techniques for achieving behavioral modification. Spanking as a form of correction is viewed very differently by different people. The more traditional approach to child rearing incorporates spanking as a mild form of punishment. Spanking is employed as a means of correcting inappropriate behavior. The more contemporary approach to child rearing, however, often views spanking as an antiquated and cruel relict of our past. Many contend in fact that spanking is ineffective in terms of instilling correct behavior in a child. In many cases in fact spanking, although an effective deterrent of earlier generations, is not the most preferred means of behavioral modification in today’s environment. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Stages Of Human Development: Hollywood's Perception
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. The chasm that exists between how Hollywood portrays human development and the way it is in reality is sometimes as wide as the Sahara Desert with the entertainment industry relying too much upon embellishment rather than fact. Examining adolescence, middle adulthood and late adulthood through the eyes of Hollywood's perspective, one can clearly see the poetic license filmmakers take with developmental factors when the ultimate objective is for the purpose of amusement or exaggeration. Other films, however, do take to heart both the troublesome and joyous aspects of age-specific development by depicting them in a more realistic light. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Staircases: Metaphorical and Real
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp) In myth and imagination, in history and reality, the staircase has always been a symbol of uncertainty and expectation. Architects have defined staircases to suggest levels of power, to suggest control and to heighten a sense of symbolic passage on a physical level. To demonstrate this idea three distinct historical staircases will be examined: stairs in the Palace of Knossos in Crete; stairs in a southern Georgia mansion and stairs in a southwest New Mexico chapel. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
