is the soft measure because it is subjective.
Study number two was on physiological arousal. Objective
measures were taken to prove the findings that men are prone to sexual
jealousy. The 55 male and female participants were hooked up to machines
that could sense their feelings of jealousy without the people verbally
expressing them. Electrodermal activity, pulse rate, and electromyographic
activity were the measures used.

Macbeth: Superstitions
1092 Words - 4 Pages.... the most simplistic of an
answer to give. Elizabethan's have several beliefs in superstitions. Some of
these superstitions include that they believe in witches, ghosts, destiny, and
the foretelling of the future. This essay will investigate superstitions and how
they are used in the play Macbeth.
Witches were believed by many people in Shakespeare's day. The
supernatural was believed by everyone from the educated to the non-educated.
When something was not explainable they would relate that problem to the
supernatural, even though today that same problem was explainable in scientific
terms.
The witches in this play are named by Shakespeare as the "weird Sisters".

“Agamemnon”: Clytaemnestra
1462 Words - 6 Pages.... was recognized by the Chorus, “We’ve come, Clytaemnestra. We respect your power. Right it is to honor the warlord’s woman one he leaves the throne.” (Lines 258-261) This line immediately sets up the fact that Clytaemnstra has gained power in Argos during Agamemnon’s absence.
It is, therefore, in this first address to Clytaemnestra that it is learned that power is a main component of her character. When Clyteamnestra explains that she is lighting the alters because the war against Troy is over, which she knows because of the torch signals, she say that they are her, “proof, my burning sign…the power my lord passed on from Troy to me!” (Line 318-319)

fashioned love of the game. The movie begins when one night, in a fit of passion,
he has a revelation and writes a mission statement about how the business can be
altered to include humanity. His plan focuses on reducing the number of clients
to produce higher quality relationships with them. He then distributes it to all
his colleagues before realizing what a big mistake he made. His boss fires him
promptly. Only one client out of his previous 72, Arizona Cardinals wide
reciever Rod Tidwell (Cuba Gooding Jr.), remains faithful. Ironically enough,
his only concern is money. Only one former colleague, Dorothy Boyd (Renee
Zellweger), joins Jerry when he forms a new comp ....

Richard III
724 Words - 3 Pages.... of the just soul
and the unjust soul, allows one to see the philosophical motives behind despot
rule. Despot rulers are simply driven by fear. Their anxieties and
insecurities lead to a hatred that has a desire to destroy, deep-rooted in
violence. Despot rulers are also never satisfied with the power they have at
any given time, thus exposing their constant fear of retaliation from their
subjects. This examination of the despot ruler by Plato clearly shows the
motives by which despot rulers rule, but it fails to explain why and how these
motives originate in the human mind.
In order to comprehend why such a high level of fear and insecurity can
be brought about, a loo ....

Macbeth: Plots For Murder
382 Words - 2 Pages.... to make sure the job gets done. It is somewhat obvious that Macbeth is planning something when he says to the people "To make society / The sweeter welcome, we will keep ourself / Till suppertime alone" (41). Macbeth is worried about the witches prophesy that Banquo will be the father of a line of kings. He sees this meaning one of two things, either the fate of himself, or the fate of his line of children. Therefore, he wants to get Banquo and Fleance out of the way. His being the third murderer, in his mind, will help guarantee that the murder is completed and that the prophesy does not come true. The circumstances surrounding this plan also make it evident that ....

repute himself a son of Rome."(Act I, scene II, line 172). This was said by
Brutus after Cassius told him how Caesar had become a towering figure over Rome
and how Caesar controls Rome. Notice the good in Brutus, and the extremes he
will go to in order to protect democracy in Rome even if it means killing the
one he loves, Caesar. Brutus possesses one of the most tragic flaws. He is too
nice of a person and therefore he gets taken advantage of. He lets Cassius
persuade him into killing Caesar for the good of Rome. Because he does for
others more than himself he makes a fatal mistake, he lets Antony live. Brutus
says to the conspirators, "For Antony is but a ....

Does Romeo Behave Rashly While Juliet Shows Superior Judgement?
613 Words - 3 Pages.... and like him but only go as far as her
mother wants. Juliet is not sure if she wants to marry Paris but she will
consider it while she gets to know him.
In other parts of the play Juliet is quite rash and acts thoughtlessly and
very quickly. One example of this is when she wakes up in the tomb and
finds out the Romeo is dead. She refuses to listen to Friar Lawrence's
pleas, to leave the tomb and come with him to a nunnery. Instead she tells
him "Go, get thee hence, for I will not away." She tries to poison herself
but there is none left. When she hears the watch coming she grabs Romeo's
dagger and fatally stabs herself. Juliet is so upset she doesn't think and
tries to poiso ....
