"Golf Is Not A Game Of Perfect" - Overview And Message
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. The game of golf is fraught with more opportunities to fail than virtually any other sport. Coupled with the fact it is considered an independent activity despite being played with others makes golf a particularly valuable vehicle for improving one's character, patience and positive outlook. Through the eyes, ears and thoughts of some of history's most celebrated golfers, Rotella (1994) illustrates how every single shot made - or missed - evokes myriad emotions that ultimately help them better their respective games, a reality one can readily equate with the learning curve inherent to life and the ongoing quest for personal development. No additional sources cited.

"Invisibility" and Homosexuality
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page discussion of the phenomenon of becoming "invisible" as a means of dealing with societal prejudice. Examines the choice of some homosexuals to keep their homosexuality restrained. Concludes that invisibility only causes tremendous ambivalence and distress, and reiterates the contentions of the film "Torchsong Trilogy" that self-hatred is the greatest enemy of the gay world. Invisibility is as much victimization as is a hate crime which targets homosexuals. It is, however, a victimization in which the victim is also the perpetrator. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

"Normal" Personality
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. The concept of normality is perhaps one of the most difficult to define in any capacity, yet it is even more challenging to characterize when the mind is involved. To be normal in the broadest sense is one who possesses "soundness of mind needed for a responsible, punishable act, one who is competent to make a contract, a sale or a will" (Binder, 1957, p. 132); in short, a normal person falls in line with the status quo of that particular society. However, this all-purpose definition fails to take into account the unique components of each and every person that can, in all truthfulness, categorize all human beings as abnormal to some extent. This reality is constantly challenging the psychiatric community to classify and reclassify what is considered normal in the capacity of treating patients and bearing witness to an offender's competence to stand trial. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

"Pink Therapy"
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. The fundamental importance of Davies and Neal's Pink Therapy is to illustrate how the culture of homosexuality is no different from any other cultural composition throughout the world, inasmuch as each global group must be appreciated and approached in a fitting manner when counseling is involved. Therapists do not interact the same way with proper British gentleman as they do a black urban youth, so it stands to reason why counseling gay, lesbian and bisexual populations are deserving of the same personal focus amidst a background of social stigma, isolating attitudes and harsh judgment. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

"Pretty Woman" - Social Psychology Principles
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. The film Pretty Woman utilizes a number of social psychological principles befitting the diverse nature of the two leading characters. Looking for a break from his otherwise structured and restricted life, the wealthy business man crosses social boundaries by spending time with a prostitute; inasmuch as he views the entire situation as wholly innocent, he acts out behaviors clearly based upon well worn stereotypes. However, the most pertinent scene where this bias gives way to an attitude change is when he meets her in the hotel lounge for their business dinner date. Failing to notice her as she sits at the bar in 'appropriate' attire, he does a double take when he finally realizes the streetwalker from earlier in the day had been transformed into a well-groomed, attractive woman. Their walk through the lobby draws many admiring glances from guests and staff alike, confirming how presentation of self is a powerful determiner of stereotypical treatment. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

"Toxic Coworkers: How to Deal with Dysfunctional People on the Job"
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page review of the book by Alan Cavaiola and Neil Lavender that provides information on how to deal with personality disorders in the workplace. This paper cautions that while Cavaiola and Lavender's message can be potentially constructive, it goes hand in hand with a certain degree of caution. Layman simply cannot read a book and obtain the information needed to accurately diagnoses psychological disorders. While Cavaiola and Lavender obviously does not intend this to be the case, books of this type lend themselves to a certain degree of misuse. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
