  10. It would be of no pragmatic value to present such a baneful history of the way things appear to be in regard to the insanity issue without addressing what can be done to ameliorate such circumstances. In this vein, I sought to identify the most efficient method to educate the general public regarding the insanity issue. This manipulation was designed as a simultude of the mundane, often complex graphs and tables utilized by an overwhelming majority of professional journals and textbooks. Many have concluded that such omnipresent and inaccurate depictions can only serve to perpetuate and make even more salient these myths. It was anticipated that since a majority of the American public have become so inured to the frequent, insidious media portrayals involving atypical acts of violence (allegedly perpetuated by the mentally ill) that when surveyed they would draw upon these distorted characterizations as their primary source of information.

  11. Relationships are an important area to study. Many studies have been done in this area. In this study, the effect of the importance of the relationship on the satisfaction with said relationships was assessed. Subjects were 50 male and female college students. The questionnaires were distributed to the subjects. They were completed by the subjects in about 30 minutes. Each subject reported about his relationship with his romantic partner. The results showed that males who answered questions about an important relationship were more satisfied with that relationship, while females were just as satisfied with their important relationships as with those that were less important. These results prove that relationship importance is more important in determining relationship satisfaction for males than for females. There are many implications of this study, and further research needs to be done.
