indicators of morbidity. Include examples in your answer. (3 Marks) Morbidity is the incidence or level of illness‚ disease or injury in a given population. Two indicators of morbidity include: Hospital use‚ by the cause and number of admissions. It provides a measure of the rates of illness and accidents to the community‚ major reasons for ill health and information on serious diseases. Yet‚ it is not descriptive of less serious illnesses and ill health. For example‚ hospitalisation statistics have

According to the DSM-V‚ specific phobias are types of anxiety disorders caused by an excessive and persistent fear due to the presence or anticipation of a certain object or situation (American Psychiatric Association‚ 2013). Specific phobias are considered to fall under the category of anxiety disorders due to the severe anxiety and distress that one experiences from their extreme fear. Symptoms vary depending on the type of phobia that exists‚ but fears generally last 6 months before they are considered

giving a straight answer to the question ‘what is ESP?’ we will begin instead with the following question: ‘Why ESP?’ After all‚ the English Language world got along well enough without it for many years. However‚ from the early 1960’s‚ English for Specific Purposes (ESP) has grown to become one of the most prominent areas of EFL teaching today. Its development is reflected in the increasing number of universities offering an MA in ESP (e.g. The University of Birmingham‚ and Aston

A crime-specific strategy is a targeted enforcement or intervention in the exact place and time with an specific offender and offense (Hoover‚ 2014). Of these specificity strategies‚ there are two‚ that in my opinion‚ go hand in hand and would be of the greatest importance or impact. These would be that of field interview and/or that of directive response patrol. With your field interviews you have more hands on in your beat to allow you knowledge of the general area‚ where as the crimes are usually

the hot metal wouldn’t effect the specific heat capacity of the metal. The amount of water wouldn’t change the temperature‚ so the heat capacity wouldn’t be changed. The metal cooling off could change the heat capacity because the temperature wasn’t kept constant and would most likely lower the calculated value of the specific heat capacity. The calorimeter losing heat as a result of stirring would most likely raise the calculated value of the specific heat capacity. The surroundings are
