Victimisation

Imagine living in a world with absolutely no chivalry used. Or better yet, imagine living in a world where everyone believed in living by the code of chivalry. Today, it is the hospitality, sympathy, and tenderness from humans. When people hold doors, help someone pick their things up, etc., we don’t think of it as a chivalrous act because the word isn’t often used. Although chivalry is thought upon, it is a much needed system to keep improving our world today for many reasons. The…

counseling sessions, self-report, and reports from her mother, and the school counselor if Rosie gave consent for her to be involved in treatment. Progress will consist of reductions in negative affect, such as depression and anxiety, and reductions in negative behavior, such as acting out in school, or acting withdrawn. The counselor might choose to have Rosie retake the PCL assessment, in order to determine if it indicates a decrease in her PTSD symptoms. However, in evaluating progress,…

Profound, huh? I wrote that silly little poem roughly five or six years ago give or take a few. It’s full of some great advice, if I say so myself, but it seems to oversimplify things quite drastically because being happy isn’t all that simple. Life can be full of a lot of horrible things such as endless mental disorders that could be plaguing you, death, addiction, abuse, poverty, sexism, racism, unemployment, or even losing that round you worked really hard on. The list could go on for ages…

Abuse is the act of inflicting cruelty or violence on another person. It is a horrific act that should not be tolerated. Many would think that the abuser is at fault for the hurtful act; however, there is much controversy over whether it is the person being abused that is at fault or the abuser that is to blame. Some may say the person being abused is at fault, that they did something to provoke their abuser. However this is not the case. No one should be put at fault for being abused.…

Bullying has plague many parts of the internet. A study looking into Facebook memorials analysed the usage and commentation of these pages for the deceased. It discussed the differences between public and private memorials and the types of comments the pages received. With each comment was a reaction from the audience that ranged from personal loved ones and friends to strangers and tourists/strangers as the article liked to call them.

The Techniques of Neutralization comes from the neutralization theory, which appeared in an article published by Sykes & Matza titled “Techniques of Neutralization: A Theory of Delinquency” (BROWN, ESBENSEN, & GEIS, 2015, p. 325). Published in 1957, this article ranked top ten in the most cited article in the American Sociological Review. One of the interesting features of this theory is the vast span of nonconforming behavior that has been used. Further the assertion of this type of behavior…

When there is a crime involving rape or sexual assault, the case needs to be handled very carefully. The police who are interviewing the victims needs to stay away from the myths about rape victims that have been pushed on society by the media. The police have to have caring attitudes. The myths about the victims could cause the victim to have a “second rape” or question if the rape was partly their fault. The myths that surround the victims of rape can influence the way that law enforcement and…

The results in the survey make me confused , this is because when asked how big of a problem bullying was in their schools, a lot said that it was a small problem, but when they were asked if it was a very important issue that needed to be handled, those people also said it was number one on the list. So does bullying need more attention in schools even though they claim it isn’t very big? It also surprised me that people said administrator’s school deal with bullying situations because people…
