...One explanation milgrim put forth as to why people obey is that they shift from an autonomous state to an agentic state, so they see themselves as an agent for carrying out someone else's wishes. This could mean they avoid the costs of obeying and the costs of disobeying to an extent. Milgrim came up with this hypothesis after his study where participants were given the role of electrocuting a 'learner' 'for the name of scence' with an experimenter pressing them on. 62.5% of them went to maximum voltage and obeying the experimenter. It would make sense that agentic shift was a factor to the participants obeying in this situation being told it was in the name of science and with an experimenter pressing them on. If agentic shift was the only reason why people obey then its probable different events would have occured during historical events where people dosobeyed, like in the holocaust where there were unnessessary acts of cruelty against jews. That could be explained in terms of conformity rather than obeying though. This explanaton doesn't explain why it matters to people to obey so its a reductionist explanation. It makes cognitive sense aswell for it being a reductonist explanation from knowledge f people being scared and consequently obeying and other human nature knowledge. Another explnanation is that people obey because they start to obey a little they have chosen the path of obeying and it takes less effort therefore to obey there on in than to disobey. This is...

...Chapter IV: GUIDING CONVERSATION Asking for focused explanation. Culture off Americans: May interrupt you to take some explainations from you Ask for explanation until they understand and rarely to ask another one. Don’t wait for your silence and easy to lose their patience. Often talk some phrase uhm,,,,,,,or connection phrases to keep the conversation Not rude to ask an explanation in us, they will appreciate you so much because they think you r trying to find the way in order to understand them. +Some ways to ask an focused explanation * I understand this, but could you explain the “ first/ next/ second…) thing you said? * Do you mean..? Did you mean…? * Can you give me an example of this * I got what you said about the first part, but I didn’t get the next part. +ADVICE: When you communicate indirectly such as on phone or directly face to face, you need to prepare carefully some relating information or remember to introduce yourself. Moreover, you shouldn’t keep silence when you don’t understand what he or she said. Instead of that, you should ask for focused explanation ( ex: I understand this, but could you explain the second part you said, I’m not sure how to do the next thing you give me….) Cross culture * Americans easily lose the patience when you don’t give the answer quickly and clearly because they won’t understand that you need time to think and time to translate from your language to English. * Recommend using specialized phrases...

...really understand the relationship between their responsibility and their final results. Thus managers didn´t comprehend what´s expected of them. The new system came up with better “explanation” of employee’s responsibility. Managers could much better understand how their actions and decisions are related to the final economic results of the company. However, there were some difficulties in the form of implementation, in my opinion. From what I understood, new system lacks communication between creators and employees. I don´t think managers felt and understood the necessity of change. More communication in form of meetings and seminars would improve their attitude towards progress in the company. Misinterpreting of implementation of the new system is proved when managers complained “It almost seems like the operating managers finally understood the old report, so they decided change it." This is the evidence that managers didn´t understand the purpose of writing reports and weren´t able to recognize the importance of specific information in the reports. Their frustration and disappointment about might lead to unwillingness to change and improve their working habits. In my opinion, creators of the new performance measurement system underestimated the way of introducing new rules, mainly the explanation of change necessity. Managers weren´t familiar with this thought so their attitude towards new rules wasn´t as creators...

...particular learning experience I had already pre-informed the student of the event so we could start promptly. The student arrived on time as I did. We went straight to the operating theatre where we were going to be working for the day. On arriving in that theatre I discovered it had been used prior and was left in an untidy state so I had to tidy it up before we could proceed. Had I have thought before hand I could have checked the day before to ensure this was not the case. I started by showing the student the anaesthetic machine we were going to use, explained the different parts and how they function. The student looked a bit perplexed at the terminology I used so I tried more simple terminology and explanations and that seemed to help. After the brief explanation of how the anaesthetic machine worked I described The checks we were going to carry out. I showed the student the 2012 guide to checking the machine produced by the College of Anaesthetists which is the one we currently use. We started to check the machine going through the guide step by step as described. It took quiet a while to complete the check. Afterwards I asked the student if they followed what we had done, the student commented it was a bit too much to go through in one session. I think looking back that I should have broken down the process into perhaps two or more sessions allowing the student time to take in and question the information. For future teaching I will definitely allocate more...

...has had the disease) it primarily considers individual beliefs. It doesn’t include the influence of other people who can be very important. When the model is applied, health workers know that if only the individual patient wants to take action and important others are opposed, there is little chance of change. The Locus of Control theory by Rotter only divides people into two distinct categories – surely not all ‘internalisers’ are healthy and all externalisers are unhealthy? It is huglet reductionist and therefore, fails to explain individual differences in health behaviours due to knowledge, age, sex, lifestyle etc. However, there is lots of empirical research evidence to support the theory. Self-Efficacy offers an dispositional explanation, suggesting that individuals are responsible for making their own health decisions. It is useful as it also suggests that health behaviours can be changed, if an...

...Raymond Carver’s story, "Cathedral’, talks about an outside relationship within a marriage that is established between the narrator’s wife and a blind man. The story elaborates how the relationship can affect the normal relations of the couple. Communication in that marriage is not as effective as expected. Also, the privacy of the husband is affected. However, openness results to seeing a cathedral when the husband explains what it is to the blind man. The title is based on the cathedral but the story is about two men who have a problem seeing. In Franz Kafka’s story, "A Hunger Artist," a man, who the writer calls “Hunger Artist”, sets on a journey with his impresario from one town to the other and finds a public place to show his fasting skills. The man is locked up in a cage and he fasts for a period of forty days. During his fasting period, people are not attracted to his intensions but suspect that he is sneaking food. He is frustrated when the town people assign butchers to ensure that he feeds on nothing. The allow him to eat. Eventually, the manager sees that the man will die and feeds him forcefully. Later, the man dies. The cage was replaced with a panther that eats hungrily and attracts many people to it. The hunger artist is a symbol of how the world is. The artist represents the part of the world that needs attention from everyone. This joy-deprived man has set himself to live a life different from other people so that he can have a theme that will ignite...
