In addition to data from nursing home residents, some studies have examined the role that stimuli or activities play in pleasure in people with dementia. Analysis of data from 12 adult daycare participants who participated in an arts intervention program specifically designed for people with early- and middle-stage dementia revealed that these individuals showed significantly more fun, interest and attention during this arts program than during traditional ADC activities (e.g., current events, crafts) (Kinney & Rentz, 2005). In addition, a program of individualized, caregiver-delivered home-based occupational therapy interventions has been shown to increase both pleasure (98%) and engagement (100%) for individuals with dementia (Gitlin et al., 2009). Blacks themselves understood this freedom, which was exercised as early as the 13th century. A constitutional amendment was granted to include the pursuit of pleasure. After his farewell, blacks loved, played, worshiped and rested, all with special zeal. Far beyond a life without forced physical slavery, this was the kind of free life and pleasure seeking they imagined the change had officially granted. The results of the multivariate analysis (see Table 3) showed that all three types of attributes, i.e. stimulus, person and environment, significantly influenced pleasure. For stimulation attributes, all 4 categories of social stimuli significantly increased pleasure (in the same order as the odds ratio found in the univariate analyses, i.e. human living social, real pet, social simulant and inanimate social). In addition, personal identity stimuli and musical stimuli had a significant impact on pleasure.
Personal attributes of female sex, better ability to perform ADLs, and clarity of speech independently predicted pleasure, and the environmental attribute of sound, particularly moderate noise level, was associated with higher levels of pleasure. The comic book authors entertained the audience with fantastic and rough performances, with the exhibition of buffoonery and pantomime. First, although several commentators mentioned above argue that judges should cut humor out of legal writing,113 this is impractical. As noted earlier, some cases are, of course, funny.114 No matter how serious the judge`s tone, legal humour is inevitable in this context. In addition, hundreds of creative, independent and talented judges write the volumes of opinions that make up our legal system. A rule prohibiting these judges from using intelligent language or witty observations would be virtually impossible to enforce, and it would be unreasonable to control court opinions to punish seemingly funny comments.115 Moreover, the legal profession prides itself on its concise and well-crafted writing.116 Therefore, judges should be free to use a variety of writing styles. Preventing judges from using humor would ultimately eliminate the creation of unique opinions that use creative means to convey difficult concepts. In doing so, the legal profession would lose the tradition of amusing opinions.117 James I gave all kinds of freedom and encouragement to the practice of stupidity and took great pleasure in it himself. I agree that the verdict should be upheld.
However, I cannot agree with the majority opinion because I do not believe that humour has a place in an opinion that resolves legal issues relating to the rights, duties and, in this case, freedom of citizens. The case is certainly not funny for litigants.86 I`m not surprised that it`s not a fever on the way to the country, it`s been a long time, and we had a lot of choices in the meantime – so it overshadowed this critical stupidity. However, if judges intend to use humour in their opinions, they must follow two guiding principles. It is first known that breathing space was used at the turn of the 14th century to refer to a delay or extension requested or granted for a specific reason – for example, to give someone time to think about a proposal. Such breathing space provided the opportunity for the kind of reflection inherent in the etymology of the word. Respite follows the Latin term respectus (also the source of the English respect), which comes from respicere, a verb with both concrete and abstract meanings: “to turn to look” or “to contemplate”. A few decades after its first known use, English speakers had granted a respite that we use most often today – “a welcome break”. These sample phrases are automatically selected from various online information sources to reflect the current use of the word “breathing space.” The views expressed in the examples do not represent the views of Merriam-Webster or its editors.
Send us your feedback. This article is the first to show that a combination of personal factors, environmental attributes, and stimulus traits affect the enjoyment of nursing home residents with dementia. We have shown in multivariate and univariate analyses that any type of social stimulus has a significant impact on pleasure. We believe this finding is likely due to the deep loneliness and isolation experienced by nursing home residents. This result gives hope for an improvement in their loneliness and isolation, as even inanimate social stimuli were clearly preferable to the state of control. While live 1-on-1 interaction with humans was indeed the strongest stimulus, many alternatives, including pets and simulated social stimuli, had a very large impact, leading us to believe that these interventions are commonly applied to this population. An appreciation of the legal codification of black pleasure requires a broader understanding of the first major constitutional step to guaranteeing their character: the 13th Amendment.
