Cognition.

Sample Solution

    Cognitive functioning is the use of mental processes such as perception, memory, reasoning, problem solving, and decision making. As we age our cognitive functioning can decline due to a variety of factors including neurological changes in the brain or medical conditions such as dementia. Neuropsychological examinations are tests used to evaluate an individual’s cognitive functioning in order to diagnose a condition or identify potential issues. They may be requested by healthcare providers based on symptoms that suggest there could be a change in cognition such as difficulty with daily tasks, decreased ability to concentrate or pay attention for extended periods of time, confusion about time and place, memory loss, lack of interest in activities normally enjoyed, paranoia or other emotional changes.

There are five key postulates in ‘liquid modernity’ which are based on interactions online, four of which relate to this current study. (1) A lack of morality, in this case, Rosica’s stalking behaviour is morally wrong. (2) To promote instantaneous gratification, in order for Rosica to continue the harassment of his ex-girlfriend and several others suggest that he was receiving some pleasure from it, hence why his repetitive behaviour continued. (3) Action not interaction is important, the action of his stalking behaviour was the problem, and the interaction had made the issue worse. (4) Aggression is easier on the web, as there is no emotion due to no physical embodiment; which can relate to many online cybercrimes. Everything is possible online because no physicality is required. The vulnerability and individualities can be concealed to play out identities, as shown in this case, although Rosica created a fake online identity to protect his identity and therefore, claiming his vulnerability against Katy Jones, “Jones was harassing both Rosica and his ex-girlfriend, Rosica claimed”. The self is rebuilt online, sometimes frequently, as we had discovered other claims about Rosica repeating the same behaviours, perhaps with several different identities for each victim? The STT applies better to the crime than liquid modernity theory, as all seven key postulates apply to cyberstalking. Whereas, in liquid modernity there is one key point that cannot be included to the crime which is ‘body become an object’. There is more evidence and detail to apply to STT for cyberstalking co
