Women In The Police Force
Number of words: 3444 | Number of pages: 13.... look at what it took for women to get into the police force but also what types of roles they play in the police force today.

Gangs
Number of words: 1591 | Number of pages: 6.... the Necronomicon, who jumped me and my homeboy (who's Latino) just
because we weren't white.
Another one would belong to the punks. Which I do not have a
problem with. The only two punk gangs I know of, do not call themselves
"Gangs" but they call themselves a crew. They call themselves CFH,
(Cowboys From Hell) and the other one is the Martians.
A lot of the gang members come from broken homes, or something is
wrong. So the kids end up in gangs doing drugs, drinking, smoking,
committing crimes, and getting into violence. Some of us consider our
gang "family." Some of the gangs actually do have real familie .....

The Effect Of Viewing Television Violence On Childhood Aggression
Number of words: 2045 | Number of pages: 8.... first association between violent television
and aggression was in the early 1960's when Albert Bandura began researching his
modeling theory. His series of experiments first set the precedent for a
relationship between violent television viewing and aggression. He felt
children would model or imitate adult behavior. In one study he subjected
children to both aggressive and non- aggressive adult models and then tested
them for imitative behavior in the presence of the model. His theory was
demonstrated when children readily imitated behavior exhibited by an adult model
in the presence of the model (Bandura, Ross & Ross, 1961) .....

How Can We Control The Drink Till You Drop Mentality At Colleges?
Number of words: 617 | Number of pages: 3.... education while at the same time continuing their drinking habit almost religiously.
The people that go to college and drink heavily for the first time or mix drugs with large amounts of alcohol are the ones that are effected the most by binge drinking. There have been more and more deaths related to binge drinking every year and the numbers are still climbing. When I said that binge drinking effected the student who had too much, or mixed drugs and alcohol I was wrong because when the student dies it’s their families that have to deal with the pain and the questions of why it had to happen to their son or daughter.

Organization Leaders In The Workplace
Number of words: 383 | Number of pages: 2.... or monitoring what they are doing. When employees control a leader's attention for disruptive reasoning, the power being used is inappropriate and dysfunctional.
So how might they stop this inappropriate action. The answer is all too very simple but also too scary for most leaders to accept. The question to be asked is, "what they are doing". This is a straight power question that most leaders do not ask. Most leaders are afraid to ask this question because of the answer they're likely to get, and do not know how to respond to it. So instead, most leaders try to fix the power problem by searching for structure that will c .....

Gender And Relationship Of Children
Number of words: 2761 | Number of pages: 11.... interaction between pairs of young children
(Jacklin & Maccoby, 1978). Pairs of 33-month old children were brought together
in the same-sex or mixed-sex in a laboratory playroom, and the amount and kind
of social behaviour directed more social behaviour, both positive and negative,
to same sex playmates that opposite sex ones. Girls paired with boys were more
likely to stand watching their partners, or withdraw towards an adult, than boys
in any pairing or girls playing with girls. The point brought up in this study
is that interactive behaviour is not just situationly specific, it also depends
on the gender of participant .....

What Is Friendship?
Number of words: 362 | Number of pages: 2.... is one of vital importance to her. It is a known fact that women live longer and deal with stress better due to talking about their problems rather than acting impulsively like men. Bonds with a girl’s confidant are very strong and are hardly breakable.
Honestly, a boy’s relationship with his cronies mystifies me. I believe they have the same relationship as girls do, but with less emotional, in-depth discussions. Males experience problems in their teenage years and often deal with them poorly. This is because they often lack the best friend they can talk to no matter what.
A life without one or several best friends, I believ .....

Juvenile Delinquency
Number of words: 975 | Number of pages: 4.... of minor delinquencies or refer them directly to
their parents. But in other communities, the police may refer such children to
a juvenile court, where they may officially be declared delinquents. Crime
statistics, though they are often incomplete and may be misleading, do give an
indication of the extent of the delinquency problem. The FBI reports that
during the early 1980's, about two-fifths of all arrests in the United States
for burglary and arson were of persons under the age of 18. Juveniles also
accounted for about one-third of all arrests for larceny. During any year,
about 4 % of all children between the ages of .....
