The application of the worldviews to the proposed research questions
1. What specific risks do companies face from insider threats in cloud computing situations?
The worldview which is relevant when tackling this research question is pragmatism. Pragmatism is a special worldview that arises out of situations (such as insider threats),actions as well as consequences (risks) (Cresswell,2008,p.10). Instead of putting all the focus on the methods, the researchers should place emphasis on the research problems and then employ all the available approaches in understanding the problem (risks associated with insider threats in cloud computing situations).
2. How can costs be effectively associated with risks?
The worldview which can best be applied to this kind of research question is Postpositivism. Creswell noted that postpositivism is a world view which holds a rather deterministic philosophy in which various causes are the probably determinants of the outcomes or effects.
The problems that are studied using a postpositivistic view are the...
In our case the need to determine the correlation (association) between costs and risks demands that an a numeric measure be used in determining the correlation. The laws as well as theories that govern the relationship between cost and risks need to be identified and put in place (Phillips & Burbules, 2000).Experiment/correlation study is the best tool to be used in determining how costs can effectively be associated with risks and thereby answering the original question (How can costs be effectively associated with risks?)

Christian Worldview What is a worldview? Define what the term "worldview" means. Use descriptive phrases to support your definition. (25-50 words) A worldview is a personal set of principles and philosophies that shape a person's outlook on life and inform his or her values and beliefs.

Worldviews: Then and Now Having a worldview is something that has always been with society, but that has not been studied and focused on in such detail until recently. The original term came from German, as there was really no word for it in English. Now, it has a much more commonplace meaning, and is used more frequently to provide insight into how a person sees the world around him or
Healthcare Philosophies of Christians and Shinto Followers Christianity approaches healthcare from a rather different perspective as compared to Shintoism. The contemporary Western worldview is generally termed 'dualism', which incorporates the idea that evil and good are eternally and continuously locked in combat. Human advancement progresses via rhythms occurring within continuous environment-individual interaction. That is, nurses acquire knowledge of best caregiving practices by working with and understanding fellow human beings, engaging in
Healthcare Philosophies of Christians and Shinto Followers Every culture has its own worldview, and its own approach to the health of its people. The Christian philosophy when it comes to healthcare is quite different than the approach that believers in the Shinto faith take. This paper points to the worldviews of each of these faiths, and it uses the available literature to delve deeply into those worldviews and the differences /
worldview? A worldview gives an account off the nature of reality, addressing whether this world is the only one, and the moral and historical status of this world (an answer to "Where are we"). A worldview also provides diagnoses of the problems experienced by human beings ("Why are we suffering?"). Finally, a worldview outlines a prescription for alleviating these problems ("What is the remedy?") (Jensen, L.A. (1997), 326). A
