Here are the announcements:
a) Remorse
Emotional expression of personal regret is the state of remorse. This is
closely related to guilt and self-directed resentment. People feel remorse
when they believe their actions were wrong. Consumers remorse is the concept
of regretting a purchase after buying an item. Buyers may focus on the
negative aspects of the product they have just purchased and feel regret
about their actions. People in Marketing are fully aware of this concept and
have tried to find ways to counter that phenomenon. It is indeed their job
to convince consumers to buy a certain product, but it is also true that
marketers have to make sure that the consumer is happy with the product and
that they wont return it out of regret.
b) Forgetting
Forgetting is a casual or gradual process in which old memories are unable
to be recalles from the memory storage. How humans encode, store and recall
memories is unknown, but it contributes to a phenomenon of short term memory
which is categorized as either decay theory which states that passage of time
always increases forgetting after something new is learned, or the
interference theory, which takes effect when the recall of a certain memory
interferes by recall of another memory.
c) Cyclic Population Change
An ecosystem is a functional system that includes an ecological community
of organisms together with the physical environment, interacting as a unit.
One aspect of ecosystems, cyclic population change, refers to species changing
the size of their population cyclically. Populations change over time due to
many different circumstances such as their size and their climate change.
However, as these circumstances repeat, the populations of these species
return to their original state.
