A THEORTICAL REVIEW OF DETERMINANTS OF FOOD CHOICE T.Thegaleesan* and Dr. R.Renganathan** Introduction Food is vital for health and well beings of an individual. Life cannot exist without food and it is for this reason every living organism striving more to obtain the food requirements. It is not only satisfies the hungry, but also provide nutrients to our body viz., proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and water, thereby helps to growth, and maintenance, repair of tissues, reproduction
reinforcement. Vicarious reinforcement involves learning by observing rewarded behaviour and imitating it and if behaviour is punished then no imitation. Additionally, there is reciprocal determinism, where along being influenced by our environment, we have some influence on the environment (Bandura, 1977). Imitation is an individual copying behaviour by observing a role model. Whereas identification, is where one takes on the behaviour or beliefs of the role model they identify with. Unlike traditional behaviourist

or is it just to pacify the gender gap? They call this problem as ‘gender ration problem.’ Their problem is the express concern about the implication of theories of crime, which must be able to take into account both men’s and women’s criminal behaviours and highlight the factors that operate different on men and
If coquetting behaviors act as a of language, and are acquired similarly to how language is acquired, then this would lend itself to the notion that since language acquisition is strongly influenced through social and cultural modulation, coquetting behaviors and other forms of emotional expressions should vary cross-culturally and be influenced by the culture the user develops in as well. Evidence of a coquetting behavior that seems to be inherent within humans and other animals as well, but whose
Personality, commonly described as an internal process that directs behaviour (e.g. Asendorpf, 2002), is a fundamental area of study in psychology as it plays a key role in understanding why individuals behave in certain ways. Multiple approaches, including psychodynamic theories, trait theories, as well as humanistic and social perspectives (Larsen & Buss, 2010), have emerged in the efforts of explaining the characteristic behaviour of human beings. The key model of personality that has received the
Infertility is a major obstacle to good health and peaceful co-existence in many homes especially in developing countries. In spite of this, the treatment of infertility has not received adequate and comprehensive attention. Most of the discussions have centred on fertility reduction. Serious attempt has not been made to address treatment of infertility according taxonomy of causes of infertility. This why infertility treatments, even simple ones such as treatment of STIs (that cause infertility)
1. INTRODUCTION The main argument of the essay will be machismo with the objective to show how sexist society is and if so to try to make people aware of the problem in order to change the mentality of our society because although maybe not so intense this mentality continues existing today.

of such anthropologists (Kroeber and Kluckhohn, 1974) they critically reviewed concepts and definitions of culture and compiled a list of 164 different definitions. They defined culture as consisting of patterns implicit and explicit of and for behaviour acquired and transmitted symbols, consists the distinctive achievements of human groups, including their embodiment in artifact. The essential core of culture consists of traditional (i.e. historically derived and selected ideas and especially their
other hand, biodiesel has energy content of about 12% lower than that of mineral diesel fuel on a mass basis. This will results in lower engine speed and power (Atabani et al., 2012). The fatty acid profile of the feedstock is one of the major determinants of its energy content. The fuel energy content (Sahoo et al., 2012) as well as the density changes directly influence the output engine power due to the different mass of fuel injected, as the injection systems measured fuel by volume. Hence, density
