The strategy (design) of conducting a cohort study may differ in actions and rules. There are three designs on which students or professionals can run their research: cross-sectional, longitudinal, and sequential (Lumen Learning). Each design has its advantages and disadvantages, and each can be used to answer a particular question...
Values significantly determine a person’s behavior, motivation, aspirations, and relationships with others. Values and motives questionnaire (VMQ), also known as values and motives inventory (VMI), was created to measure them. The test estimates three dimensions of personal values: interpersonal, extrinsic, and intrinsic (“Values and motives questionnaire,” n.d.). As a result,...
Although outer space begins at the height of 100 km from sea level, going there means one is working against gravity, and precise mathematical calculations are needed (Siddiqi, 2018). The problem with traveling to space is that it involves going up the whole way, meaning one must fight gravity throughout...

Introduction There are numerous sources of information that scholars and students can use in their research. They include, among others, journal articles, books, newspaper articles, and online resources. However, the bulk of these resources do not meet the validity requirements for them to be used in scholarly work. For example,...
In the process of lithification, sedimentary rocks are traditionally formed, according to Lutgens and Tarbuck (58). As a rule, the process of lithification presupposes that sediments should remain under pressure; the sediments expel the so-called connate fluids in the process and finally turn into sediment rock. The difference between a...
According to the data provided in the Periodic Table, a common isotope of Nickel has 28 electrons, 28 protons and 31 neutrons (Schaller Section 28). The difference between covalent and ionic bonds is often reduced to the state of matter, in which they traditionally occur, yet there is a bit...
