Combined type.
The student may exhibit symptoms that include behaviors from both categories above.

In order for a student to be diagnosed with ADHD, symptoms must appear before age 12 and be exhibited across at least two settings. They must also have adverse effects on academic performance, occupational success, or social-emotional development (APA, 2013).

To add to the complexity of the diagnosis, children with ADHD are likely to have co-existing emotional, behavioral, developmental, learning, or physical conditions (Wolraich & DuPaul, 2010).

Praise, Praise, Praise: Attentiveness and appropriate classroom behavior are
prerequisites for learning; therefore, interventions that promote these behaviors
should be an integral part of the teaching process for all students. When teachers
are attentive to positive behavior and specifically praise students for these
behaviors, they can engage students before their attention drifts while highlighting
desired behavior (U.S. Department of Education, 2006).

Note. For each subject, the logistic function was fit to target fixations separately. The maximum asymptote is the asymptotic degree of looking at the end of the time course of fixations. The crossover point is the point in time the function crosses the midway point between peak and baseline. The slope represents the rate of change in the function measured at the crossover. Mean parameter values for each of the analyses are shown for the 9-year-olds (n = 24) and 16-year-olds (n = 18), as well as the results of t tests (assuming unequal variance) comparing the parameter estimates between the two ages.

a 0 = internal hires and 1 = external hires.b A linear transformation was performed on the starting salary values to maintain pay practice confidentiality. The standard deviation (0.27) can be interpreted as 27% of the average starting salary for all managers. Thus, ±1 SD includes a range of starting salaries from 73% (i.e., 1.00 – 0.27) to 127% (i.e., 1.00 + 0.27) of the average starting salaries for all managers.c Values reflect the average across 3 years of data.*p < .05. **p < .01.

Table 2
Master Narrative Voices: Struggle and Success and Emancipation




Discourse and dimension

Example quote



Struggle and success a

 



  Self-actualization as member of a larger gay community is the end goal of healthy sexual identity development, or “coming out”


“My path of gayness ... going from denial to saying, well this is it, and then the process of coming out, and the process of just sort of, looking around and seeing, well where do I stand in the world, and sort of having, uh, political feelings.” (Carl, age 50)




  Maintaining healthy sexual identity entails vigilance against internalization of societal discrimination


“When I'm like thinking of criticisms of more mainstream gay culture, I try to ... make sure it's coming from an appropriate place and not like a place of self-loathing.” (Patrick, age 20)




Emancipation b

 



  Open exploration of an individually fluid sexual self is the goal of healthy sexual identity development


“[For heterosexuals] the man penetrates the female, whereas with gay people, I feel like there is this potential for really playing around with that model a lot, you know, and just experimenting and exploring.” (Orion, age 31)




  Questioning discrete, monolithic categories of sexual identity 


“LGBTQI, you know, and added on so many letters. Um, and it does start to raise the question about what the terms mean and whether ... any term can adequately be descriptive.” (Bill, age 50)  




a The struggle and success master narrative states that same-sex desire/behavior is a natural if relatively uncommon developmental variant distinguishable from heterosexuality. Healthy sexual development entails “coming out” as well as joining a larger gay community in a shared struggle to overcome societal discrimination and be socially recognized as normal.b The emancipation master narrative states that discrete, monolithic, and mutually exclusive categories of homosexuality and heterosexuality are social constructions, conceptually suspect in their ability to fully capture the idiosyncrasies of sexual subjectivities, desires, and behaviors. This circumscription of sexual self within culturally contingent and hegemonic sexual identity categories must be resisted.

Table 3
Integrated Results Matrix for the Effect of Topic Familiarity on Reliance on Author Expertise




Quantitative results

Qualitative results
Example quote



When the topic was more familiar (climate change) and cards were more relevant, participants placed less value on author expertise.


When an assertion was considered to be more familiar and considered to be general knowledge, participants perceived less need to rely on author expertise.


Participant 144: “I feel that I know more about climate and there are several things on the climate cards that are obvious, and that if I sort of know it already, then the source is not so critical ... whereas with nuclear energy, I don't know so much so then I'm maybe more interested in who says what.”




When the topic was less familiar (nuclear power) and cards were more relevant, participants placed more value on authors with higher expertise.


When an assertion was considered to be less familiar and not general knowledge, participants perceived more need to rely on author expertise.


Participant 3: “[Nuclear power], which I know much, much less about, I would back up my arguments more with what I trust from the professors.”





Note. We integrated quantitative data (whether students selected a card about nuclear power or about climate change) and qualitative data (interviews with students) to provide a more comprehensive description of students’ card selections between the two topics.

Pollination
Pollination is the process in which the pollens are transferred from anther to stigma. The process of pollination can occur through a different medium.

The table mentioned below describes the different types of pollination along with their pollinating agents.

Pollination Process Pollination Medium
Malacophilous By snails
Chiropteriphilous By bats
Hydrophilous By water
Zoophilous By animals
Anemophilous By air
Entomophilous By insects
Ornithophilous By birds

What Is Meant By Lorem Ipsum In Website?
The word Lorem Ipsum is derived from the Latin word which means “pain itself”. It is a kind of a text filler tool that is used by the webmaster on the website.

Basically, this tool is used to create dummy content on the website when it’s new.

Why Lorem Ipsum Is Used?
It helps the designer plan where the content will sit. It helps in creating drafts of the content on the pages of the website. It originates from the Latin text but is seen as gibberish.

Sometimes, the reader gets distracted while creating or working on the website. That’s why this language is important.

This tool makes the work easier for the webmaster.
