Attribution Theory

13.7K
Behavior is a product of both the situation (e.g., cultural influences, social roles, and the presence of bystanders) and of the person (e.g., personality characteristics). Subfields of psychology tend to focus on one influence or behavior over others. Situationism is the view that our behavior and actions are determined by our immediate environment and surroundings. In contrast, dispositionism holds that our behavior is determined by internal factors (Heider, 1958).

Fundamental Attribution Error

13.7K
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...

Obedience

35.2K
According to obedience research, we may harm others under the forceful pressures of an authority figure (Milgram, 1974). How about if the inappropriate orders were delivered with less force? The increasing interdependence between nurses and physicians compelled Hofling and his colleagues to explore nurses’ reactions to a potentially harmful medical request made by the perceived authority figure, the doctor (Hofling, Brotzman, Dalrymple, Graves, & Pierce, 1966). In this situation,...

Social Traps

26.3K
Social traps are negative situations where people get caught in a direction or relationship that later proves to be unpleasant, with no easy way to back out of or avoid. The concept was orignally introduced by John Platt who applied psychology to Garrett Hardin's "Tragedy of the Commons", where in New England herd owners could let their cattle graze in the common ground. This situation seems like a good idea, but an individual could have an advantage. If they owned...

Aggression01:47

Aggression

30.1K
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...

Trait and State Self-Esteem

11.5K
The term self-esteem is often used generically, to refer to how people feel about themselves. However, according to research, there are three distinct constructs that should not be used interchangeably (Brown & Marshall, 2006).

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Malaria remains a significant infectious disease challenge in Iran.
  • Iran aims for malaria elimination by 2025.
  • This study reviews the malaria situation over 16 years.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the trends and characteristics of malaria in Iran.
  • To assess the progress towards malaria elimination goals.

Main Methods:

  • Data collected from epidemiological registration forms.
  • Physicians and malaria focal points contributed data to the National Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Main Results:

  • 134,273 malaria cases reported between 2002 and 2017.
  • Malaria incidence dropped significantly from 0.24/1000 to 0.01/1000.
  • Imported cases increased from 2009; Plasmodium vivax was dominant, predominantly in males over 15 in rural, south/southeastern Iran.

Conclusions:

  • A significant reduction in autochthonous malaria cases was observed.
  • These findings support the feasibility of achieving malaria elimination in Iran.
