In- and Out-Groups01:31

In- and Out-Groups

People all belong to a gender, race, age, and social economic group. These groups provide a powerful source of our identity and self-esteem (Tajfel & Turner, 1979) and serve as our in-groups. An in-group is a group that we identify with or see ourselves as belonging to.
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...
Fundamental Attribution Error01:14

Fundamental Attribution Error

According to some social psychologists, people tend to overemphasize internal factors as explanations—or attributions—for the behavior of other people. They tend to assume that the behavior of another person is a trait of that person, and to underestimate the power of the situation on the behavior of others. They tend to fail to recognize when the behavior of another is due to situational variables, and thus to the person’s state. This erroneous assumption is called the fundamental attribution...
Unrealistic Optimism Bias01:30

Unrealistic Optimism Bias

Unrealistic optimism bias is the tendency to overestimate the likelihood of positive outcomes. This cognitive bias makes individuals believe they are less likely to experience failures, setbacks, or risks and more likely to succeed than others. For example, people may assume they are less prone to health issues, accidents, or financial struggles than their peers, even when they share similar risk factors.One key component of this bias is the above-average effect, where individuals perceive...
Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping02:05

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about the way you...
Horney's Sociocultural Approach01:27

Horney's Sociocultural Approach

Karen Horney's psychoanalytic theories emphasize the potential for self-realization and the importance of addressing social and cultural, rather than biological, factors in personality development. She challenged traditional Freudian views, particularly Freud's concept of "penis envy," which she argued stemmed from cultural influences rather than inherent biological differences. Horney believed that any sense of inferiority in women was a result of societal conditioning, such as dependence on...

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Only two NHS organizations were listed among the UK's top 100 employers by the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) charity Stonewall in 2009. This highlights a significant underrepresentation of healthcare organizations on the diversity list.

    Area of Science:

    • Health Services Research
    • Organizational Diversity
    • LGBTQ+ Workplace Inclusion

    Background:

    • The Stonewall Top 100 Employers list is a key benchmark for workplace equality in the UK.
    • Inclusion on this list signifies a commitment to LGBTQ+ inclusivity.
    • Previous years may have seen different levels of NHS representation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the representation of National Health Service (NHS) organizations on the 2009 Stonewall Top 100 Employers list.
    • To identify the extent of LGBTQ+ inclusivity within UK healthcare organizations as reflected by this benchmark.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of the Stonewall Top 100 Employers list for 2009.
    • Identification and counting of NHS organizations featured on the published list.

    Main Results:

    • Only two NHS organizations were included in the 2009 Stonewall Top 100 Employers list.
    • This indicates a low level of recognition for LGBTQ+ inclusivity among NHS trusts compared to other UK employers.

    Conclusions:

    • The findings suggest a potential gap in LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion initiatives within a significant portion of the NHS in 2009.
    • Further investigation is warranted to understand the barriers to NHS organizations achieving higher rankings on diversity lists.
