Group Design02:01

Group Design

10.9K
The most basic experimental design involves two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The two groups are designed to be the same except for one difference— experimental manipulation. The experimental group gets the experimental manipulation—that is, the treatment or variable being tested—and the control group does not. Since experimental manipulation is the only difference between the experimental and control groups, we can be sure that any differences between...

Aggression01:47

Aggression

30.5K
Humans engage in aggression when they seek to cause harm or pain to another person. Aggression takes two forms depending on one’s motives: hostile or instrumental. Hostile aggression is motivated by feelings of anger with intent to cause pain; a fight in a bar with a stranger is an example of hostile aggression. In contrast, instrumental aggression is motivated by achieving a goal and does not necessarily involve intent to cause pain (Berkowitz, 1993); a contract killer who murders for...

Ethics in Research

Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.

The Scientific Method

66.1K
Research is what makes the difference between facts and opinions. Facts are observable realities, and opinions are personal judgments, conclusions, or attitudes that may or may not be accurate. In the scientific community, facts can be established only using evidence collected through empirical research.

Bystander Effect

10.3K
The discussion of bullying highlights the problem of witnesses not intervening to help a victim. This is a common occurrence, as the following well-publicized event demonstrates. In 1964, in Queens, New York, a 19-year-old woman named Kitty Genovese was attacked by a person with a knife near the back entrance to her apartment building and again in the hallway inside her apartment building. When the attack occurred, she screamed for help numerous times and eventually died from her stab wounds.

Models, Theories, and Laws01:16

Models, Theories, and Laws

9.3K
Scientists frequently use models to help them comprehend a specific collection of phenomena. In physics, a model is a condensed version of a physical system that is too complex to study thoroughly. One such example is the light wave model; unlike water waves, light waves are typically invisible to us. Nonetheless, it is helpful to think of light as being composed of waves, since investigations show that light behaves like water waves. Since it is impossible to visually see what is genuinely...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Equity
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Violence is a significant public health concern with far-reaching health and social consequences.
  • The Centre for Global Health and Health Equity convened a forum to address violence and its impact on various Canadian populations.
  • The forum aimed to identify priority issues and develop strategies to reduce violence-related health inequities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify priority issues related to violence affecting diverse population groups in Canada.
  • To determine actionable strategies for reducing violence-related health inequities.
  • To present findings from roundtable discussions and offer recommendations for research, policy, and practice.

Main Methods:

  • A forum was held with over 60 participants including researchers, health professionals, and community advocates.
  • Presentations covered structural violence, community violence, gender-based violence, and violence against marginalized groups.
  • Thematic analysis was employed to analyze detailed notes from roundtable discussions.

Main Results:

  • Structural violence, stemming from historical and socio-economic marginalization, perpetuates interpersonal violence.
  • Dominant social norms contribute to gender-based violence, particularly affecting women, children, and older adults.
  • There is a need for comprehensive violence prevention programs at individual, community, and societal levels, alongside robust research.

Conclusions:

  • Violence must be recognized as a public health issue requiring significant investment to break cycles of harm.
  • Recommendations include policies to reduce structural violence, transforming social norms, adequate funding for prevention programs, and ecological research.
  • A multi-pronged approach integrating research, policy, and practice is essential for violence mitigation.
