architectural design of the study which gives a rationale for the development of research questions or hypotheses and consists of various concepts, constructs or variables, and the relations between them that presumably account for a phenomenon.

functions beyond those found in poetry, cliché, and elaborate turns of phrase. Metaphor permeates our daily experiences - not only through systems of language, but also in terms of the way we think and act. The key to understanding a metaphor's effect on behavior, relationships, and how we make sense of our environment, can be found in the way humans use metaphorical language.

A concept – void of any bias is likely impossible, simply due to the fact that concepts cannot be exclusive of an individual 's mentality.

ACT (Adaptive Control of Thought) which explains how human behavior is formed based on prior knowledge. According to this model, knowledge is divided in to two types: declarative and procedural knowledge and spreading activation occurs when there is a match in active part of the declarative knowledge. Time taken for the activation to spread to the prior related knowledge in order to match the signal detected and generate a human behavior is called the reaction time (RT)(John R. Anderson & Pirolli
effect in the mood and behavior of an adolescent, due to the increase of activity in the brain. We discussed in class that the adolescent brain is under constant activity, having different processes happening simultaneously.
