Relationship between Marijuana Use and Academic Performance The use of stimulants like coffee and marijuana is common among college students in the United States. According to a research study carried out by Pearson et al. (2018) demonstrated that one in every four American had used at least one type of stimulant while in college or the university. These stimulants are used for various reasons, including; recreational purposes, medicinal value, stress reliever, or as an academic enhancer. The high prevalence uses of stimulants in the United States have been associated with the legislative actions to eliminate or relax legal penalties of either use or possession of these substances, especially marijuana. Numerous debates have been centered on the impact of stimulants on the health and academic performance of students. Research question The research question for this study explores whether marijuana has a better effect than coffee on the academic performance of students.

Secularism and religion Religious minorities have always faced many problems in secular majority societies. Some of the factors that contribute to religious minorities include the migration of certain groups to a new land. For instance, due to the war that is existing in the Arabic countries in the Middle East region, Muslims have migrated to European countries like Britain and Germany. Second, some people adopted a particular religion while in their homeland country, but religion failed to grow, making them a minority group in the country. An excellent example of such an incident is the Christian religion in Bangladesh. Secularism and religion are two different phenomena, and the existences of one group possess a threat to the other while in the same society. The religious minority face a lot of challenges in a secular dominated society. The first challenge that they encounter is hatred. Hatred is common in communities whereby there is the existence of a religious minority. The hate is exposed in various ways. The Muslims in the European country has been associated with terrorism, and there are many…
The Role of Education in Social Equality Introduction Education has always been perceived as the ultimate answer to social inequality. Once a person scores high grades, they can gain entry into university and thereafter a well-paying job thus pulling one out of poverty. Earlier, students from low income families were given the chance to study at college because the government funded university tuition fees. This gave all students an equal opportunity to pursue high education regardless of their socio-economic backgrounds. However, with tuition fees on the rise and the government cutting short funding programmes, many students from low income families cannot afford university tuition fees and thus miss the opportunity to get higher education. This raises the question of whether education promotes social equality or social inequality. This paper is going to look at how education promotes both social equality and inequality. Also, what changes must be made to ensure education maintains its commitment to social equality. Social Equality Education is important in shaping the future economic wellbeing of the young people who will in turn control the economy of…
various interventions used to improve compliance It is common knowledge that failure to take medication has adverse effects on the outcome of treatment; more so since it leads to wasted resources. Non-adherence to medication is considered as one of the most expensive disease categories considering it is among the largest of the class. Compliance is, however, not restricted to taking medication alone; it also consists of the failure to follow recommended dietary habits or keeping up with appointments and other healthy practices recommended by a health practitioner. Over the years, researchers have been looking for a means to counter this problem (“Strategies to Enhance Patient Adherence: Making it Simple,” n.d.). The most plausible way found was through involving the patient in the determination of their medication. Simplifying medication regimen tends to improve compliance, but only if the appropriate simplification techniques are used. There are various interventions used to improve compliance. One of the simplification techniques is an educational intervention. Educational intervention can be done through imparting knowledge on the treatment regime being applied to the patient. The effects of the…

Research, testing, and development of a new item The health and safety of the consumers of any item, especially drugs, is the priority of any manufacturing organization. The process of developing medicine or drugs is rigorous, which must pass through numerous phases or stages before it is deemed fit, and safe for use. It has to go through the required regulations, where all critical tests and research necessary are conducted and approved by relevant bodies or authorized institutions. Research, testing, and development of a new item, especially take more than 12 years for its approval and acceptance as fit and safe for use. Before drugs are administered to the first patients, it should have been tested through all the process cycle to avoid risking or endangering the life of the people.

The safety and analysis of new items, especially pharmaceuticals, should be done following the international health standards. Testing and researching for the safety of the drug are done during the development…
