Abstract:
We have now entered into the age of the customer, a time where competing through traditional methods is no longer valid; it is the customer experience that is crucial to gaining a competitive advantage. Despite the recognition of the importance of customer experience, there is a considerable dearth of knowledge among both academics and practitioners on aspects relating to customer experience including the drivers, measurement and value it provides to firms. In an attempt to move forward the body of knowledge on customer experience, the researcher set out to answer the following research questi

Abstract:
The lack of consideration of cultural factors within neuropsychological literature has been argued to be due to the assumption that assessment tools are measuring universal constructs (Nell, 2000), supported by the medical discourse with which neuropsychology has aligned itself and the subsequent implications of neutrality. However, evidence suggests that people experience assessments differently which may undermine the validity of the assessments. This is increasingly likely for participants from a different culture to that in which the assessment tool was developed, due to a greater degree o

Abstract:
This research explores literacy as a medium for deepening student's awareness of their world and the impact of the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSLT). Standardized testing is analyzed as a fundamental paradigm to our school culture. Ethnography is explored as a method for describing one group of students and their teacher as they prepare for the OSSLT. The findings conclude that the test occupies time, dominates definitions of literacy and undermines student and teacher agency. The conclusion considers reasons for why we seem to accept a testing paradigm that may be a direct aff

Abstract:
Introduced to modern psychiatry in 1938, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is the application of an electrical current to the brain, administered under a general anaesthetic and with the use of muscle relaxants.

Abstract:
As female students have traditionally been underrepresented in a number of academic disciplines (e.g., Hernandez et al., 2017), and because female students have often encountered obstacles in persisting in their preferred fields of study (e.g., Hughes, 2012), it's important to elevate female voices and learn how to better support them in academia. In order to pursue this, original qualitative research was conducted to better understand the academic experience of undergraduate female students pursuing a degree in an CFLE approved family science program.
