Background of the Study Did you know that all of us are exposed to the risk of electric shock? We are all surrounded by electrical appliances and machinery which exposed us to risk. This study allows us to know the basic information‚ the causes and effects‚ and the preventive measure because according to the National Safety Council there are about 600 to 1000 people die every year from electrocution. It continues to rank as the fourth highest cause of industrial facilities‚ among traffic accidents‚

The investigation of the controlled and the automatic processes employing the Stroop effect experiment. Abstract The interference between the controlled and the automatic processes was observed in the Stroop effect type experiment using two different conditions. The original Stroop effect experiment concluded that the participants will find it more difficult to complete the reading task of the words related to colour meaning in comparison to the reading task of non-colour related words.

What this tells me is that one mad customer can have a huge impact just by telling a few family members

The Hawthorne Experiments and Human Behavior Elton Mayo’s studies grew out of preliminary experiments at the Hawthorne plant from 1924 to 1927 on the effect of light on productivity. Those experiments showed no clear connection between productivity and the amount of illumination but researchers began to wonder what kind of changes would influence output. Variables Affecting Productivity Specifically‚ Elton Mayo wanted to find out what effect fatigue and monotony had on job
