Hello, friends. In order not to open a new topic, I'll post my request in here.
I have to do a comparison between an english/american institution (broad sense) and a romanian one. I'd gladly appreciate some materials, links, etc, from where to take some ideas about english institutions :) An already done comparison will save me from a couple of hours of working :)
Thanks.
edit: actually, a comparison between english/american legal system and romanian legal system would do well too :)

What kind of institution ?
Marriage is considered an institution, as is a mental asylum.

Indeed, I have tried most vices at some point. Some don't agree with me...
They claim to lead ... lives.
I have to put in: new, better, honest
what'd be the correct order?

Is there someone who is fluent (and your username is not borkos:D) in English willing to help me.
The following text is from my master´s thesis. It´s a short overview from it, an abstract.
I would be really grateful if someone could help me out, correct the mistakes I have done and maybe put the text into more better English.

ABSTRACT
THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FIELD DEPENDENCE – INDEPENDENCE WITH LINEAR HAND MOVEMENT ACCURACY OF 16-19 YEAR OLD ATHLETES
Learning new skills is very important in sports and in school´s physical education lesson.
Some people gain skills faster than the others. It depends on many factors. One of these factors
is cognitive style. Research findings suggest that field independent people moves are more
accurate.
The aim of this study was to examine the possible relationship between field dependence- independence with linear hand movement accuracy.
Fifteen boys and 15 girls in the age of 16-19 volunteered for the study. They attend trainings at least three times a week. Fifteen of them were volleyballers, 7 basketballers, 4 footballers and 4 floorballers. Group Embedded Figures Test (GEFT) was used to assess athletes field dependence-independence. Thirty volunteers were classified in 3 groups based
on the total scores of the Group Embedded Figure Test (GEFT) (field dependent, mixed and field
independent). Linear Movement Apparatus (Model 31202) was used for measuring volunteers linear movement accuracy. In this test volunteers have to move apparatus` button from the beginning to 40 cm point. Microsoft's Excel spreadsheet program was used to measure correlation between field dependence-independence with linear movement accuracy.
The GEFT results indicated there were 4 field dependent persons, 11 were field independent and 15 mixed people. The average mistake in linear movement test for field dependent people was 30,3 mm. Field independent average mistake was 13,9 mm and for mixed style people it was 12,7 mm. The results showed significant correlation (r = 0,69) between field independence people and their linear movement accuracy. Linear movement correlation with field dependence was r = -0,25 and with mixed style it was r= -0,26.
The results showed that field independent people linear movement is more accurate compared with other styles.

I think Borkos should have a go, particularly after you first statement! ;-)
I will do a bit at a time...

The following text is from the thesis I am writing for my Masters Degree. It is an extract from it.

If I ever see you write "more better" ever again I will send Borkos round to slap you with a freshly caught carp!
Your stuff is in italics and the correction has my comments in brackets. I also use ellipsis to show the rest of the quoted text can be read correctly.

Learning new skills is very important in sports and in physical education lessons in school. (it is not the school having a lesson!) Some people gain skills more quickly than others. It depends on many factors. One of these factors is cognitive style. "research or findings - pick one!) suggest that those who are field independant have more accurate moves. (This is speculation on my part as the sentence doesn't make sense at the moment.)

The aim of this study is (pick a tense and stick with it!) ...
Fifteen boys and 15 girls in the age of 16-19 volunteered for the study. They attend trainings at least three times a week. Fifteen of them were volleyballers, 7 basketballers, 4 footballers and 4 floorballers. Group Embedded Figures Test (GEFT) was used to assess athletes field dependence-independence.
Fifteen boys and fifteen (pick either numbers or words!) girls in the age group 16-19 volunteered for the study. They attended (again, pick a tense) training at least three times a week. Fifteen played volleyball, seven basketball (always words for numbers under ten, always!), four football and four floorball. (WTF is floorball?! There is nothing that can be called a sport where you stay on the floor - is this something for fat kids?) ...
"Thirty volunteers were classified in 3 groups based on the total scores of the Group Embedded Figure Test (GEFT) (field dependent, mixed and field independent). Linear Movement Apparatus (Model 31202) was used for measuring volunteers linear movement accuracy. In this test volunteers have to move apparatus` button from the beginning to 40 cm point. Microsoft's Excel spreadsheet program was used to measure correlation between field dependence-independence with linear movement accuracy."
The thirty (you have already introduced "them" as a group) volunteers were divided into three groups based on the total scores of the Group Embedded Figure Test (GEFT) (field dependent, mixed and field independent)(add something to explain why they are in 3 groups or remove it!). Linear Movement Apparatus (Model 31202) was used for measuring each volunteer's linear movement accuracy. In the test volunteers move a button from the start point to a point at forty centimetres. A spreadsheet (never mention Bill Gates' company in my presence again!) was used to measure the correlation between field dependence-independence with linear movement accuracy.
The GEFT results indicated there were 4 field dependent persons, 11 were field independent and 15 mixed people. The average mistake in linear movement test for field dependent people was 30,3 mm. Field independent average mistake was 13,9 mm and for mixed style people it was 12,7 mm. The results showed significant correlation (r = 0,69) between field independence people and their linear movement accuracy. Linear movement correlation with field dependence was r = -0,25 and with mixed style it was r= -0,26.
The GEFT results indicated there were four field dependent persons, eleven were field independent (WTF?! surely that means their were 15 field independent?) and fifteen mixed people. The average discrepancy in the linear movement test for field dependent people was 30.3 mm.(we use a . for a decimal point, or at least I do!) The field independent average discrepancy was 13.9 mm and for the people classified as mixed it was 12.7 mm. These results showed significant correlation (r = 0,69) between field independence people and their linear movement accuracy. Linear movement correlation with field dependence was r = -0.25 and with mixed style it was r= -0.26.
The results showed that field independent people linear movement is more accurate compared with other styles.
Therefore these results show (always chuck a therefore or similar synonym in to show a concluding statement) that the linear movement of field independent people (declare ownership more clearly) is more accurate when compared with other styles (are they styles? what is the official term?).

dude. promise me that when you are finished studying whatever the hell that is, that you will do something more exciting for a bit!
Actually it was fun. It was not very interesting in the beginning, but we finally got the results, it became interesting. I am studying Physical education (or sports). Deadline is on Monday. I am almost done, only a short conclusion to write which I am doing right now.
Thanks again:)

what is floorball?
A game played intense gravity, that's my guess.
