Bullying

8.7K
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...

Cognitive Dissonance

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Pascal's Law

In 1653, the French philosopher and scientist Blaise Pascal published "Treatise on the Equilibrium of Liquids," which discussed the principles of static fluids. A static fluid is a fluid that is not in motion. When a fluid is not flowing, we say that the fluid is in static equilibrium. If the fluid is water, we say it is in hydrostatic equilibrium. For a fluid in static equilibrium, the net force on any part of the fluid must be zero; otherwise, the fluid will start to flow. Pascal...

Social Traps01:41

Social Traps

26.2K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Ethics
  • Public Health
  • Gun Violence Prevention

Background:

  • Medical professionals often face the emotional toll of treating victims of gun violence.
  • Current medical practice primarily focuses on acute care, not prevention of mass shooting incidents.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the medical community's potential role in addressing the gun violence epidemic.
  • To advocate for proactive measures beyond immediate patient treatment.

Main Methods:

  • A metaphorical cartoon illustrating a surgeon's guilt and a nurse's intervention.
  • A narrative call to action for the medical field.

Main Results:

  • The cartoon visually represents the emotional burden on healthcare providers.
  • It emphasizes the need for the medical community to engage in gun violence prevention.

Conclusions:

  • The medical field has a moral imperative to contribute to solving the gun violence epidemic.
  • Proactive engagement is necessary to move beyond reactive treatment of shooting victims.
