The movie Fight Club is a study in the psychological underpinnings behind the amount of violence or pain, internal or external, a person will endure when trying to find a sense of identity within himself. Fight Club takes a group of people looking for their identities. They may be searching for identities to get over personal crises in their lives, but they will fail to find what they are looking for, in a true sense. Through its characters, the film epitomizes the psychological issues surrounding identity crises as they relate to issues such as trust vs. mistrust, autonomy vs. shame, intimacy vs. isolation, and integrity vs. despair.

Does Elevated Job Stress Affect Smoking Levels?
[ send me this paper ]
A 70 page expanded version of a much smaller paper researching the hypothesis that smokers in high-stress jobs tend to smoke more in response to stress than do smokers in jobs with lower stress levels. Though there was no existing research with which to guide the study, it still obtains solid and statistically valid results that unquestioningly prove that a smoker's response to a high-stress job is that of smoking more than usual. Existing literature emphasizes the relationship between stress and depression, and also that between smoking and depression. Biochemical and psychological research has concluded that there is a strong relationship between smoking and clinical depression, though it is unclear which contributes to the other. This survey does not specifically address depression, but it does give valuable insight to the relationship of stress-related smoking and workplace stress. Includes 4 charts and 4 tables. Bibliography lists 72 sources.
