The impact of multicultural in psychology Introduction The doctrine of multiculturalism impacts the behaviors of different people across the world. Multicultural ideologies make people peculiarly uninterested in regards to feelings as well as ideas which come from people of varying culture which are not their own. Understanding different cultures similarly affect psychologists. This discussion will provide the impacts of multiculturalism in psychology. Impact of multicultural in psychology There are various ways through which psychologists are affected by multiculturalism. Self-awareness in psychologist Self-reflection is a crucial component required in multicultural counseling. Through understanding multicultural, the psychologist can identify their values as well as the ability to value the cultures of other people (Eskici, & Çayak, 2018).

Better understanding and strong relationships Through understanding multi-cultures, a psychologist can understand various cultural differences and use the knowledge in creating stronger relationships with his/her client. For instance, people from Western culture ask direct questions and prefer maintenance of eye contact. This may be different in other religions, such as African, where direct…
The Inadequacy of Privacy Controls on Social Networking Sites Contribute to Identity Theft The Internet, primarily social networking sites, represents one of the most efficient and effective modes of communicating and disseminating information. Chewae et al. (2015) observe that the popularity of social network platforms and the ballooning number of users have focused attention on privacy as an important issue online. The internet space is open for individuals and businesses, but malicious entities also have taken advantage of the digital setting to perpetrate crimes like identity theft. Barth and De Jong (2017) emphasize that the emergence of the Semantic Web presents numerous opportunities related to the unlimited access to information, with the largescale aggregation of data and round-the-clock social networking connectivity. However, observers consider the inadequacy of the privacy and security controls by social media sites a significant contributor to the exposure of individuals to identity theft. The users are also to blame because they fail to take measures to safeguard their data to prevent intrusion on their information. The requirement by social networking sites for the individuals to…
The Impact of Communication in Healthcare Sector There is no doubt that communication is critical in the healthcare sector. Physicians have to convey their diagnostic results to the patients; they also need to inform the patients on the best way to take care of their health conditions. At the same time, patients need to be in touch with their care providers whenever they detect any anomaly. Different scholars have proposed different views on the issue of the significance of communication in the health care sector. It had been presumed that the communication approach in the healthcare facility is general for all patients. However, Hyatt (2015) suggests that delicate patients, like the LGBT community, need a special type of communication. In the article “Improving LGBT Healthcare communication,” the author sought to find out how specialized and effective communication would help in improving medical uptake by the LGBT group and other patients with special health or social complications. The author conducted stratified research on the LGBT community through an interview survey on sexual orientation and how they perceived the approach by…

Technology in the Society Technology denotes to the systems, methods, and the devices established through scientific knowledge, and are used for conducting various practical activities in the society. The exists a controversy on whether technology has brought more benefits or harms in society. Some of the research argues that technology is of great significance in the current society since it has helped to improve activities in the business and other fields in the community. For instance, it enhanced communication, accuracy, and assist in business performance. However, some researchers believe that technology is the root cause of various problems that are present in the current society, for instance, health problems such as obesity, skin diseases, violation of human rights, and the increase of immorality in the community. However, despite the harm brought by technology, I still believe that technology is a vital tool in the current society. Technology is a vital tool in society since it enhances communication, improves the economic status of a nation, and improves academic performance. Most of the corporates and large business depends on software and applications…
The Ethics of Job Discrimination Compare and contrast the main arguments used to support affirmative action programs. Do you agree or disagree with these arguments? If you disagree with an argument, state clearly which part of the argument you think is wrong, and explain why it is wrong. Composed of several characteristics from two different British concepts of both positive discrimination and action, affirmative action refers to a set of regulations that aim to support those individuals from disadvantaged groups and have experienced or still experiencing discrimination in different sectors such as employment, income, education, housing and many more (Jain et al. 2015). Some of the objectives that the support of affirmative action have aimed to achieve include: reducing and curbing the indifference in employment and income, fostering multiculturalism, addressing the previous harms, and hindrance again and enhancing education access. One of the major arguments used to support affirmative action is that it allows for a fair evaluation of members by covering the available social differences. Also, another argument supposes that it ensures that cultural diversity is achieved and maintained…
Take-Home Test: Film Question 1 (a). Representation of Williams’ Argument. Williams argues in relation to spectator positioning, asserting that the female spectator is partially accorded happiness particularly, at the end of the film (Stella Dallas). Referring to the window scene when Stella (mother) is conveyed a pure spectator in a single patriarchal vision. Williams presents that despite tremendous loss and sacrifices that might revolve around a mother-daughter relationship in the society, the spectator can be made to identify with the existing contradiction that surrounds the heart of socially constructed roles of a daughter, mother, and wife. Unlike what would appear as criticism to Joanne (Mia’s mother in Fish Tank), William would posit that women perhaps experience conflicting demands made on them. She wouldn’t be quick to judge Joanne but would advise that Joanne handles these contradictions to attain ending happiness. Linda Williams would view Joanne’s scenario intensified with isolation and separation that she faces as a spectator, only that she is overwhelmed to the demands in controlling her daughter. However, given the fact that Joanne’s age may exempt her, Williams…
Technology Instrumentalism The definition of technology comes up as the knowledge or process put into use by human beings to come up with new products or ideas that assist us in our daily tasks. Most people mistake technology as the tools that result from our technological knowledge, but their definition is utterly misguided. Technology is massively dynamic and is continuously changing. The machines we used ten years ago are unquestionably outdated now. While such change is an advantage, is every new technology regarded as a blessing? Kevin Kelly, the founder of famous magazine Wired, states that technology is ever ultimately out of bounds. He adds that new technology is always an unalloyed good and that it is still better to have modern technology at our disposal and seek to manage it properly. My goal in this paper is to scrutinize Kelly’s statement and derive my decision to agree or not with him. Whenever a new technology arises, there is always some form of excitement that revolves around the unveiling. A great example would be in 2008 when Tesla announced…
TAX RETURN SUMMARY Tax returns provide information that is used by the taxation authorities to calculate the income tax and another form of taxes. Individuals are taxed on a worldwide income earnings basis considering employment or services tax and other forms of taxes. Usually, the total incomes received are tax-deductible unless those that are of exemption legally. Tax balances that are due are carried forward and will be deducted in the future while overpayments are refunded. Income received from employers, interest realized from bank accounts, and any other form of income is included in the tax return. In this case, Martin and Kenzie received income from their employers is taxed and another income that receives, i.e., the amount he received $1,250 and $25,000. The amounts that the employer spends on employee training are not included in the tax return. The reward of free vacation for the whole family to Aruba should not be part of the tax return, as it is a motivation from the employer. Additional benefits provided by an employer are not taxable, therefore not supposed to…
