I might also do an Internet search for the individual authors to determine whether they have a reputation for objectivity or bias on the subject matter of their writing.
2. If you were going to begin a database search on the topic of the relationship between individualism and the portrait genre, what search terms would you use? What are the most significant terms here? The ones you could NOT leave out? If you searched "individualism" would this be sufficient?
Searching for "individualism" alone would not be sufficient because a search for that term in isolation would generate all sorts of information that would have nothing necessarily to do with the topic of portrait genre or art. I would not leave out any of those terms but I would search for them in a specific order rather than in a single search of all of them in combination. I might search first for "portrait" + "genre" and then I would search for "individualism" only within those results. That strategy would allow me to search for references to individualism that are relevant to art and relevant to genres of portrait art in particular.

Had there never been a

Further, "the approach assumes that one needs to understand the larger context -- person, interpersonal, group, and external situation -- in order to understand the patterns of behavior and to influence them successfully." With SYMLOG, measurement procedures are
architects in the 21st century is the issue of sustainability. Not only is there no consensus opinion on how to approach the issue of sustainability in academic circles but there is also no formula of integrating sustainability into architectural curriculum (Wright, 2003). This deficiency underscores an even more stressing problem, however: as Edwards and Hyett (2010) note, "the techniques and technologies of green design are now generally understood --

(van der Pluijm and Melissen, 2007, p.1) Multiple-sided city diplomacy is a "diplomatic process in which more than two parties are involved, representing various cities."
