CHAPTER 3 Response surface methodology 3.1 Introduction Response surface methodology (RSM) is a collection of mathematical and statistical techniques for empirical model building. By careful design of experiments‚ the objective is to optimize a response (output variable) which is influenced by several independent variables (input variables). An experiment is a series of tests‚ called runs‚ in which changes are made in the input variables in order to identify the reasons for changes in

Having a positive attitude is the best response to conflict‚ especially in time of war. In times of conflict there can be many different responses‚ but one of the best and most successful would be having a positive attitude.

The response to intervention model is one intervention measure that identifies learning disabilities in struggling students during the early stages of their education and recommends appropriate remedial action such as the need for special education. According to Guillaume (2016)‚ the response to intervention model consists of four components. The first tenet is the scientifically based core curriculum

Which is another name for the fight or flight response? Sympathetic nervous system The "fight or flight response" is our body’s automatic response that prepares the body to "fight or flight" from perceived attack‚ harm or threat to ourselves.

conditioned stimuli that elicit responses for Lauren that would not elicit a response for you or me. Lauren was abused at a great extent that has her conditioned to a lot of unnatural stimulus that normally is just a part of our everyday lives. The first conditioned stimulus I would like to identify is the response of fear and pain to abuse and the abuse is derived from sexual contact from her mom. The unconditioned stimulus is abuse that gives the response of fear and pain that is stimulated
