The second part consists of working out the way forward for application of AI during future warfare. The methodology used for working out expected Ai performance during future warfare has been survey and interaction with the experts in the field. Findings :The findings of the study have been that AI has been quite a success story during prediction and diagnosis stage of Pandemic but the actual performance in finding solution to the problem has been questionable. As a result the countries world over have suffered huge losses and had to resort to various preventions measures. Novelty : The novelty of the study is derived from the fact that various study in the AI field have been specific to a particular field and no work was done on learning the lessons from one domain to its application to other field of similar nature. The question of “How much reliance should be laid upon AI during a future war.” has largely remained unanswered. With reference to ethical and legal issues related to AI in employment of Killer Robots the study recommends future course of action.

Sexuality is an important aspect of an individual’s life which is often surrounded by stigma. The lack of acceptability to talk about sexuality creates considerable stress for individuals. Consequently, sexuality concerns present themselves in psychotherapy. In such situations, the counselors’ ability to create a safe environment, develop an empathic understanding, and affirm the client’s identity facilitates competent practice. Counselors’ ability to engage with issues of sexuality may, in turn, be determined by their own comfort. Thus, to understand the quality of counseling available for sexuality concerns, it is primary to study the counselors’ comfort and interventions with these issues. For this exploratory study, self-constructed questionnaires were administered to 31 counselors from Delhi, capital city of India and the National Capital Region (NCR), with a postgraduate degree in psychology and at least a year experience as practicing counselors. Ten case vignettes were presented and the counselors were asked to rate their comfort on a 5-point Likert-type scale and provide three interventions. Descriptive analysis of the Likert-type scale responses was undertaken while the interventions listed were analyzed thematically. The counselors perceived themselves to be very comfortable with sexuality concerns and obtained a mean score of 41.806 out of 50. Counselors’ interventions were reflective of their approach, and some interventions employed could be conceptualized along the affirmative sexuality framework. The counselors listed evidence-based strategies which were influenced by their own theoretical orientation and experience. The counselors varied in their engagement with ethical and legal issues. This study has implications for research, counselor training, and practice.

Aim: To assess the level of knowledge and awareness of undergraduate medical students in order to determine whether the undergraduate virology course is up to standard for preparation of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted online by random-sampling method with a multi-central approach. Data was collected from 311 respondents for a time period of one month during May 2020. IRB approval was granted. Descriptive analysis was done on student demographics, their knowledge and opinions, using the research tool SPSS 24. Results: Majority of students had factually correct knowledge about Covid-19, according to the WHO guidelines. However, there was poor knowledge regarding animal reservoirs and other diseases caused by Coronaviruses. Most students had learned about Coronaviruses from sources apart from the syllabi or course material and 93% were in agreement for wanting an improved Coronavirus module in their undergraduate virology courses. Conclusion: Medical students have good knowledge about Coronavirus, but are lacking in some crucial topics such as sources of animal reservoir and types of diseases etc. More studies need to be conducted in order to assess whether undergraduate syllabi are sufficient for educating and training students about future possible pandemics. An efficient prospective course of action should be determined accordingly. Keywords: Medical students, Coronaviruses, Covid-19, Pandemic, Knowledge, Awareness.

Negatively Associated

The Ochsentour describes the slow, hard road to the top of political positions and is colloquially negatively associated . But despite this negative image, it remains unclear what actually constitutes this process of intra-party proving and how to interpret the metaphor of the arduous journey of the ox dragging the plough . A descriptive analysis based on the IParl survey shows that an aspirant’s nomination success depends on much more than the symptomatical duration of his or her party membership . These findings instead indicate that the development of a trusted relationship between candidate and party base is the key component of intra-party promotion . Overall the data suggests that aspirants are mostly flexible, show high levels of engagement and have proved themselves to their party base . Thus, the Ochsentour metaphor does not fit to the actual performance of candidature applicants.

Rational Reasoning

Abstract Cushman characterizes rationalization as the inverse of rational reasoning, but this distinction is psychologically questionable. Coherence-based reasoning highlights a subtler form of bidirectionality: By distorting task attributes to make one course of action appear superior to its rivals, a patina of rationality is bestowed on the choice. This mechanism drives choice and action, rather than just following in their wake.
