Data are individual items of information obtained from a population or sample. Data may be classified as qualitative (categorical), quantitative continuous, or quantitative discrete. Because it is not practical to measure the entire population in a study, researchers use samples to represent the population. A random sample is a representative group from the population chosen by using a method that gives each individual in the population an equal chance of being included in the sample. Random...

In statistics, several tools are used to interpret the data. Measures of central tendency represent the characteristics of the data, such as mean, median, and mode. Additionally, measures of variance like standard deviation and range are used to find the spread of data from the mean. Relative standing measures the distance between data locations. Commonly used measures of relative standings are percentile, z score, and quartiles.
Percentiles are a type of fractile that partition data into...

Synthesis of new DNA molecules is carried out by the enzyme DNA polymerase, which adds nucleotides on the daughter strand complementary to the template DNA strand. DNA polymerase has a higher affinity to add the correct base and ensures fidelity during DNA replication. Furthermore,  it exhibits proofreading activity during replication, using an exonuclease domain that cuts off incorrect nucleotides from the nascent DNA strand.
Errors During Replication are Corrected by the DNA Polymerase...

Journal Bearings01:23

Journal Bearings

Journal bearings are mechanical components that support and provide lateral stability to rotating shafts and axles. They are crucial in reducing friction, wear, and vibration in machinery such as engines, turbines, and pumps. The principle behind journal bearings is forming a thin lubricant film between the bearing surface and the rotating shaft, which minimizes direct contact and reduces frictional forces.
To better understand the concept of journal bearings, consider a rope winch with dry or...

Types of Selection

43.2K
Natural selection influences the frequencies of particular alleles and phenotypes within populations in several different ways. Primarily, natural selection can be directional, stabilizing, or disruptive. Directional selection favors one extreme trait and shifts the population towards that phenotype while selecting against individuals displaying alternate traits. Stabilizing selection favors an intermediate trait with a narrow range of variation. Deviation from the optimal phenotype towards an...

Summary

The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated social injustices and inequalities globally. This editorial outlines a vision for the Journal of Applied Psychology (JAP) to address these challenges by promoting diversity, open science, and translating research for public good.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Social Sciences

Background:

  • The COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented challenges, increasing poverty and deepening inequalities for vulnerable populations, including women and residents of lower-income nations.
  • In the United States, racial and ethnic minority groups, particularly African Americans, have been disproportionately affected by the pandemic, with higher infection and mortality rates.
  • The pandemic and social protests highlight systemic racism and social injustice, underscoring the need for relevant scientific and societal responses.

Discussion:

  • The editorial addresses the critical need to acknowledge and respond to the societal impacts of the pandemic and social unrest.
  • It emphasizes the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion within academic publishing and scientific research.
  • The author's vision for the Journal of Applied Psychology (JAP) is presented as a framework for addressing contemporary societal issues.
