Impact of Individuals on Individuals01:30

Impact of Individuals on Individuals

381
Human behavior is intricately shaped by social influences that arise from interactions with others in diverse contexts. These influences not only mold beliefs and attitudes but also drive the regulation of behaviors through both direct communication and observational learning. The study of these processes falls within the domain of social psychology, which seeks to understand how individuals are affected by and affect those around them.Mechanisms of Social InfluenceDirect social influence...

Impact of Groups on Individuals

349
Groups play a fundamental role in shaping individual behavior, as they establish norms that guide interactions and decision-making. Social psychology examines how individuals conform to group expectations, often adjusting their attitudes and actions to align with group norms. These norms can be formal, such as workplace policies, or informal, such as unspoken social expectations within a fraternity.Conformity and Social InfluenceConformity arises when individuals modify their behaviors or...

Impact of Individuals on a Group

320
In social psychology, the interplay between individuals and groups is a central concern, particularly regarding how individual actions and characteristics influence group processes and outcomes. While much research emphasizes the group's power in shaping individual behavior, it is equally significant to understand how individuals contribute to the functioning, development, and success of groups.Individual Roles in Group Productivity and Decision-MakingIndividuals are not passive participants in...

Nephrotic Syndrome I : Introduction01:24

Nephrotic Syndrome I : Introduction

631
Nephrotic Syndrome is a chronic kidney disorder defined by clinical findings such as severe proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia, and edema. These symptoms result from damage to the glomeruli, the kidney’s filtering units, increasing their permeability to proteins.Definition and Meaning:Proteinuria, defined as the loss of more than 3.5 grams of protein per day in adults, is a crucial feature of nephrotic syndrome. This condition is often accompanied by edema, the accumulation of...

Adler's Individual Psychology01:28

Adler's Individual Psychology

2.4K
Alfred Adler, a prominent figure in psychology, founded the school of individual psychology. In contrast to Freud's emphasis on sexual or aggressive motives, Adler suggested that individuals are primarily motivated by their purposes and goals. He believed that people strive for perfection rather than pleasure. Adler argued that individuals could creatively act upon their genetic inheritance and environmental experiences to shape their own lives, emphasizing conscious motivation over...

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Ophthalmology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Rett syndrome (RTT) presents significant communication challenges.
  • Oculomotor function is crucial for eye-tracking communication systems.
  • Electronystagmography (ENG) is a method to assess oculomotor function, but faces challenges in individuals with RTT.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and evaluate challenges during ENG examinations in individuals with RTT.
  • To inform adaptations for improved oculomotor assessments in RTT.

Main Methods:

  • Oculomotor function assessed using ENG in 17 individuals with RTT and 16 typically developing (TD) controls.
  • Observational analysis of performance and results focused on attention and signal quality.
  • Quantitative exploration of attention (looking time) and signal quality (drift).

Main Results:

  • The RTT group exhibited significantly reduced attention and suboptimal electrode signals compared to the TD group.
  • These deficits were observed across most ENG tests, with the exception of the torsion swing test.

Conclusions:

  • Standard oculomotor examinations require modification for individuals with RTT.
  • The torsion swing test may be less visually dependent, potentially explaining better attention in the RTT group.
  • Suggested adaptations include fewer electrodes, modified visual stimuli, observational assessments, and virtual reality goggles.
