The Judicial Commission

Area of Science:

  • Bacteriology and Taxonomy
  • Microbial Nomenclature

Background:

  • The Judicial Commission previously ruled on the inclusion of subgenus names within the genus Moraxella on the Approved Lists.
  • This ruling encompassed corresponding species names within these subgenera.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To re-examine the basis of a prior Judicial Commission Opinion regarding Moraxella subgenus names.
  • To reassess the inclusion of these names on the Approved Lists.

Main Methods:

  • Detailed review of the Judicial Commission's ruling.
  • Analysis of relevant passages within the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes.
  • Examination of the original publication containing the Moraxella names.
  • Consideration of newly available information.

Main Results:

  • New evidence suggests the need for a re-evaluation of the initial ruling.
  • The interpretation of the Code and original publications may require further scrutiny.

Conclusions:

  • There is sufficient cause to revisit the facts underpinning the Judicial Commission's Opinion.
  • The taxonomic status of Moraxella subgenus names requires further investigation.

Groupthink01:34

Groupthink

When in group settings, we are often influenced by the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors around us. Groupthink is another phenomenon of conformity where modification of the opinions of members in a group aligns with what they believe is the group consensus (Janis, 1972). In such situations, the group often takes action that individuals would not perform outside the group setting because groups make more extreme decisions than individuals do. Moreover, groupthink can hinder opposing trains of...

Critical Thinking I01:24

Critical Thinking I

Critical thinking helps decision-making and allows nurses to recognize barriers to success and find solutions to possible issues. It helps to brainstorm and implement ideas to achieve goals. Critical thinking helps acknowledge and state workflow inefficiencies while improving management techniques. Nurses understand the value of critical thinking and look for fellow nurses with critical thinking skills to upgrade their professional standards. Critical thinking can advance a nurse's career with...
Hypothesis: Accept or Fail to Reject?01:17

Hypothesis: Accept or Fail to Reject?

The outcome of any hypothesis testing leads to rejecting or not rejecting the null hypothesis. This decision is taken based on the analysis of the data, an appropriate test statistic, an appropriate confidence level, the critical values, and P-values. However, when the evidence suggests that the null hypothesis cannot be rejected, is it right to say, 'Accept' the null hypothesis?
There are two ways to indicate that the null hypothesis is not rejected. 'Accept' the null hypothesis and 'fail to...

Ethical Dilemmas II

Resolving an ethical dilemma in healthcare involves a systematic approach that considers every aspect of the issue, respecting both the patient's needs and values and the healthcare professional's ethical obligations. Here are potential steps to resolve an ethical dilemma:
Decision Making: P-value Method01:09

Decision Making: P-value Method

The process of hypothesis testing based on the P-value method includes calculating the P- value using the sample data and interpreting it.
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is proposed. The claim is based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to the claim  is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses:  a null hypothesis would be a neutral statement while the alternative hypothesis can have a...
