...Kyle Budde COM 101-002 Paper #1: Three Persuasion principles Netflix wins again One of the many avenues of persuasion comes from reciprocation when someone does or gives you something and then you feel a need to return the favor. I fell victim to this when I was a freshman in college. While in high school, my parents utilized a standard cable package with no need of buying any premium cable channels. This was the norm to me. However, as I was exposed to dorm life, I quickly realized that some of the shows on Netflix were actually very intriguing. My dorm roommate made an account and I found myself surfing through Netflix rather than flipping through channels. Everything was customized to him: because he watched Iron Man, the website suggested he watch Black Knight. There was no thinking involved, which impressed me. One night while doing homework I saw an ad for “Free Netflix for a month” I clicked on the bright red, flashing ad and signed up instantly to stream shows from my own Netflix account for free. However, in the last paragraph of the subscription sign up page, there was a paragraph describing how the company would start to charge me for the service after the first month. I told myself as I inputted my credit card information that I will not be paying for this and I will cancel within the month. As the free month rolled around, I only watched two movies, and I realized that it was time to cancel, as paying for a subscription would not be feasible since I hardly...

...Injury to any person’s body results in a distressing interruption in life. Fortunately, because most peoples’ careers or errands do not require much use of the body, injured non-athletes can continue on with these activities before full recovery, depending on the seriousness of the damage done. When injury befalls on a sportsperson, the disruption experienced is amplified, as the person needs to fully recover both physically and mentally before participating again. Injury to any given athlete will cause many diverse effects psychologically, and the way the athlete views the injury is a significant determining factor in his or her ability to come back in full force. Unfortunately, the rate that the body recovers is not always simultaneous with the rate that the mind heals (Podlog & Eklund, 2007), so it is important to make sure restorative treatment is applied toward the mind during rehabilitation. The mental discomfort one experiences from injury is complex, as the person is being affected cognitively, emotionally and behaviorally. To make sure a rehabilitation program will fully heal the mind along with the body, the intricacy of the mental aspect needs special consideration. The rate at which the body recuperates and the amount of influence psychological properties affect that rate depend on if the injury is short term, moderate or severe. When the injury is more severe, more modifications potentially need to be made when returning to the sport which were not concerns before...

...Kiara Willis English IV Mrs. Lynn Black December 9, 2014 Athletic Training Athletic trainers are health care professionals who collaborate with physicians. Athletic trainers help prevent and treat injuries that are typically caused by athletic involvement. (Live Strong 1) Athletic training first emerged during the 20th century at the Olympic Games. After football surfaced as a national sport in the United States, many realized the need for these trainers to be present at the games. (Live Strong 1) In the 1930’s athletic trainers tried to form a national organization (National Athletic Trainers’ Association), however it disappeared during the 1940’s during World War 2. It was not until the 1950s when the National Athletic Trainers Association (NATA) was brought back. In 1989, the National Board of Certification emerged as a certified program for athletic trainers. (Live Strong 1) Finally, athletic training as a professional health career first emerged in 1990, when the American Medical Association deemed it an “allied health profession”. In order to understand Athletic Training, one must consider educational requirements, equipment, and the safety procedures. By the 1990s the curriculum for athletic trainers began to emerge. In 1986, Sayers Miller, proposed a major specific option for athletic training to be offered in colleges.(Jenkins 1) Athletic trainers meets qualifications set by the Board of certification, Inc., and adhere to the requirements of a state licensing...

The relationships that you build with your clients as they are going through therapy for an injury or just staying healthy is what makes it that much more joyful.

...younger. Every field of study has their own personal philosophy. The one I would like to live by and use to help me get through my career successfully, is the Athletic Trainer philosophy. According to nata.org, “Athletic trainers (ATs) are healthcare professionals who collaborate with physicians. The services provided by ATs comprise prevention, emergency care, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation of injuries and medical conditions.” An athletic trainer is mainly working around the sports scene, but there are some who also work with the military branches, government service, industrial setting, and a couple of TV shows like the biggest loser and wrestling. In my opinion the two significant questions a person should ask themselves about a particular career are why you want to be what you want to be and what excites me about that career. Coming into college I was a big sports type of guy. I played multiple sports in high school and enjoyed being around it. Also, I am a caring person so helping others is a big deal in my life and how I grew up. I was taught to always help others if you are capable of doing so. Being able to help someone and at the same time being around something I really love, sports, made me chose to be an athletic trainer. To me the most exciting part about being an athletic trainer is helping a person overcome an injury to get back to...

Ben Kibler TENNIS RECOVERY A Comprehensive Review of the Research A United States Tennis Association Sport Science Committee Project Editors: Mark S. Kovacs, PhD Todd S. Ellenbecker, DPT W. Ben Kibler, MD Introduction In the last two decades, physical training and competitive opportunities have increased dramatically in junior, collegiate and professional tennis. This arose due to a multitude of factors, but much of it has stemmed from an increase in knowledge and understanding of scientifically based training programs focused on improving performance. As this focus on performance has increased, the area of recovery has received relatively limited focus. Recovery is a multi-faceted paradigm focusing on recovery from training—session to session, day to day and week to week. Recovery is also vitally important during training as well as in competition between matches and between days during multi-day tournaments. As more information is needed in the area of tennis specific recovery, the Sport Science Committee of the United States Tennis Association (USTA) sponsored an extensive evidence-based review of the available literature related to eight distinct areas of tennis-specific recovery. These eight areas are: • • • • • • • • Nutritional Aspects of Tennis Recovery Heat and Hydration...

...Quality Improvement Project By RM January 2016 Leadership and Management Executive Summary Nursing burnout is serious and in order to ensure that nurses are taken care of, the administration must implement incentives and policies that will provide nurses with the resources to maintain a healthy work life balance. Burnout accounts for many of the medication errors and patient injuries in healthcare facilities. Most nurses are overwhelmed because of the caseload and longer workdays necessary to complete charting. Many nurses are also disgruntled because of denied vacation requests that cannot be approved because of non-coverage. Research has shown that when employees are happy then there are less errors and injuries in the workplace. It’s ironic that nurses care for patients but they don’t feel as though the healthcare facility cares for them. Many things can be done to boost employee morale which in turn will increase the quality of care that the patients receive. Adequate coverage needs to be address and using temporary staffing is a way to fill chronic vacant positions so that float RN’s are available for PTO requests. Insurance credits and consumer discounts can be used as incentives for those employees that practice healthy living activities. Staff meetings held during work hours, discussion boxes, timeout rooms, and partnerships with massage clinics are all changes that can provide stress relief for nurses. These changes are not too costly for...

...Intense training schedules. Pressure to win and be the best. Painful injuries. Given all these factors, it’s not surprising that some athletes simply burn out on their sport. But what is shocking to many in the field are the young ages at which this is increasingly happening -- sometimes as early as 9 or 10. The scenario often goes something like this: Eager to nurture the next A-Rod or Michelle Kwan, parents enroll their 5- or 6-year-olds in a competitive sports league or program. Over the next few years, training intensifies and expands to the off-season, making practice essentially year-round. Youngsters may join more than one league or a traveling team. They may have to sacrifice other interests and give up most of the down time that allows them to just be kids. Soon the stakes get higher because many parents and coaches play to win. Winning means recognition and that could lead to lucrative opportunities -– high school championships then college scholarships and perhaps a shot at the pros. “Kids sports have become much more competitive,” says Dr. Jordan Metzl, medical director of the Sports Medicine Institute for Young Athletes at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City. “And in general, high-level competition for young kids is not a great thing,” says Metzl, co-author of “The Young Athlete: A Sports Doctor’s Complete Guide for Parents.” With more kids than ever in organized sports, an estimated 30 million of them up through high school, Metzl and...
