Bullying

8.9K
A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

Influence of Parents and Peers on Identity

592
Adolescence is a pivotal period of identity formation, during which individuals begin to answer questions central to their sense of self, such as "Who am I?" and "Who do I hope to become?" Both parents and peers play critical roles in guiding adolescents through this complex developmental phase.
Parental Influence on Identity Development
Parents serve as primary guides and managers in an adolescent's life, offering support instrumental in decision-making and personal growth....

Antigens Involved in Adaptive Immunity01:26

Antigens Involved in Adaptive Immunity

1.6K
An antigen is any substance the immune system identifies as foreign and potentially harmful to the body, prompting an immune response. Antigens have two functional properties: immunogenicity and reactivity. Immunogenicity is the ability of an antigen to stimulate a specific immune response. At the same time, reactivity describes the antigen's ability to react with the cells and antibodies produced in response to it.

Complete antigens possess both immunogenicity and...

Hybridoma Technology01:31

Hybridoma Technology

17.8K
Hybridoma technology is used for the large-scale production of monoclonal antibodies. Monoclonal antibodies bind to only a single antigenic determinant or epitope. Such antibodies are used in research, diagnostics, and disease therapy. The hybridoma technology established in 1975 by Georges Köhler and Cesar Milstein was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1984 for revolutionizing research and therapy.

Confirmation Biases01:31

Confirmation Biases

8.3K
The confirmation bias is the tendency to focus on information that confirms our existing beliefs and ignore information that is inconsistent with our expectations. For example, if you think that your professor is not very nice, you notice all of the instances of rude behavior exhibited by the professor while ignoring the countless pleasant interactions he is involved in on a daily basis. Have you ever fallen prey to the confirmation bias, either as the source or target of such bias?

Area of Science:

  • Criminology
  • Psychology
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Poly-victimization, experiencing multiple forms of victimization, significantly impacts youth.
  • Peer harassment is a prevalent issue among adolescents, with technology mediating interactions.
  • Previous research highlights the detrimental effects of poly-victimization on young individuals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine how poly-victimized youth interact with peers via technology.
  • To compare peer harassment victimization and perpetration among poly-victimized, less victimized, and non-victimized youth.
  • To identify risks associated with technology use in poly-victimized adolescents.

Main Methods:

  • National survey of 791 youth aged 10-20 (Technology Harassment Victimization study).
  • Analysis of peer harassment experiences, both overall and technology-mediated.
  • Comparison of victimization and perpetration rates across different victimization groups.

Main Results:

  • Poly-victimized youth exhibit significantly higher risks of dual victimization and perpetration of peer harassment compared to non-victimized youth.
  • These heightened risks persist even after controlling for other explanatory factors.
  • High poly-victims show increased risk for technology-involved harassment, engaging in more intense online peer interactions.

Conclusions:

  • Poly-victimized youth are at greater risk for peer harassment, including technology-facilitated forms.
  • Understanding the specific ways poly-victimized youth use technology for peer interaction is crucial for intervention.
  • Further research is needed to explore the nuances of positive and risky peer relationships among poly-victimized youth in digital environments.
