With examples what are the qualities that define pseudoscience?
Very nice discussion post. The scientific method is a form of critical thinking based on careful collection of evidence, accurate description and measurements, precise definition, controlled observation, and reputable results (Bordens & Abbott, 2022). In its ideal form the scientific method has six elements: (1) Identify the problem (2) Defining research problem/make observations (3) Proposing hypothesis (4) Gathering evidence and experiment/test hypothesis (5) Analyze the data (theory building) (6) Communicate results/or modify experiment (publish results). Yanchar et al., 2008). Additionally, in chapter 1 of our textbook, the authors stated that pseudo-sciences are unfounded systems that are frequently confused with valid psychology. Unlike psychology, pseudoscience changes little over time because followers seek evidence that appears to confirm their beliefs and avoid evidence that contradicts their beliefs. Beliefs in pseudoscience are based in part on uncritical acceptance, confirmation bias, and the Barnum affect (Bordens & Abbot, 2022). My question isWith examples what are the qualities that define pseudoscience? Also, can you give some examples of pseudoscience?

Does a political operative have an ethical obligation, to be honest when the information being disseminated to a group of people isnt complete?
Rona is a huge supporter of Gerry Mitchell in the mayoral campaign. Rona decides to volunteer for Mitchell campaign and is soon asked to speak at various rallies when Mitchell cant attend. One Saturday evening, Rona is asked to speak before a group of retirees at a local retirement center. As a campaign insider, Rona knows that Mitchell has privately acknowledged that hes probably going to have to drastically cut city support for a number of programs that help the elderly. Of course, this information has been made public. Rona also realizes that the group she is speaking before would not vote for Mitchell if they knew what his future plans are.
1. If Rona attempts to persuade the retirees without divulging the information about the future cuts, is she a pure persuader or a manipulative persuader?
2. Does a political operative have an ethical obligation, to be honest when the information being disseminated to a group of people isnt complete?
3. If you were Rona, what would you do?
Describe if the storage of biometric data is safer locally or in the cloud? Why?
The convenience and availability of cloud services has seen a dramatic increase in business functionality being shifted from local servers to the cloud. Even our biometrics may be stored in the cloud.Assume your employer has signed up with a global authentication provider that stores user fingerprints in the users global identity accounts. Users can then use their biometric fingerprint from the cloud service to access websites rather than storing the fingerprint locally on their mobile device or computer.In theory, if an attacker gains access to your fingerprints (whether stored locally or in the cloud), they could compromise any of your online accounts that accept your fingerprints.Answer the following question(s):
Describeif the storage of biometric data is safer locally or in the cloud? Why?
If an attacker has your fingerprints, could multifactor authentication (MFA) still prevent the attacker from gaining access to your accounts? Why or why not?
