The incidence of rape among college students is a common concern in many societies, within each society; the perceptions of rape myths reflect the cultural values and norms of that particular society (Joohee Lee, 2012). A convenience sample of 354 (N = 354) college students currently enrolled in universities in Hangzhou, China completed the Illinois Rape Myth Acceptance Scale (IRMA).
This paper is an attempt to condense and examine the merit(s) of Genetically Modified Organisms (... more This paper is an attempt to condense and examine the merit(s) of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO s ) in global industries, particularly food production and distribution. The notion of GMO s resulting from various technologies is visited from the standpoint of relative improvement in livestock and crops. We will evaluate key research geared to the assessment of technologies instrumental in the production of GMO s . The safety factor relating to the consumption of food comprised of GMO s pertaining to humans and lower order mammalians will be considered. Likewise, ongoing concerns as to the impact of GMO s on the environment are reviewed. The possibility of bias as it pertains to research driven by geo-political interests and economic agendas seems to factor into this timely debate and will be placed into perspective. My conclusion is that GMO s are a welcome technologic advance, serving to improve food production and distribution relative to the world's need for more abundant quantities and efficient techniques to prevail in the battle against hunger and famine.
