Empathy

Some researchers suggest that altruism operates on empathy. Empathy is the capacity to understand another person’s perspective, to feel what he or she feels. An empathetic person makes an emotional connection with others and feels compelled to help (Batson, 1991). Empathy can be expressed in several ways, including cognitive, affective, and motor.

The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.
Therapeutic communication is not the same as social interaction. Social interaction has no goal or purpose and consists of casual information sharing, whereas therapeutic communication has a plan or purpose for the conversation. Therapeutic...

Counterfactual Thinking01:19

Counterfactual Thinking

Counterfactual thinking is a cognitive process wherein individuals mentally reconstruct alternative versions of past events, often beginning with “what if” or “if only.” This reflective mechanism plays a significant role in shaping emotional experiences and guiding future behavior. Though typically triggered by unfavorable or unexpected outcomes, counterfactual thinking can also emerge in mundane, everyday decisions and experiences, revealing its deep entrenchment in...

Techniques of Therapeutic Communication II: Focusing, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing

9.3K
Focusing involves centering a conversation on a message's critical elements or concepts. Focusing is valuable if the talk is vague or patients begin to repeat themselves. Sometimes, when patients are asked about their symptoms, they may go off-topic and try to tell their entire life story. Respectfully, the nurse should bring the conversation back into focus.
This therapeutic technique can also be used when a patient brings up pertinent information during a health-related conversation. The...

The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

52.2K
According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Ethics
  • Sociology of Health
  • Health Equity Research

Background:

  • Dominant narratives in medicine can obscure systemic injustices.
  • Understanding marginalized patient experiences is crucial for equitable care.
  • Critical race theory (CRT) offers tools to analyze these dynamics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To apply CRT to a clinical case of nonaccidental trauma (NAT) overevaluation.
  • To examine the impact of competing perspectives on patient care and experience.
  • To assess existing literature on inequities within NAT evaluations.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized CRT's stock and counter-storytelling techniques.
  • Analyzed a patient case involving NAT overevaluation.
  • Conducted a literature review on inequities in NAT evaluations.

Main Results:

  • CRT illuminated how dominant perspectives in NAT evaluations can negatively impact patient care.
  • The analysis revealed normalized injustices previously hidden within standard practices.
  • Inequities in NAT evaluations were identified as detrimental to patient well-being.

Conclusions:

  • CRT provides valuable insights into hidden biases in medical evaluations.
  • Vigilance and intentionality are necessary to address systemic inequities in healthcare.
  • Applying CRT can improve patient experiences and promote health equity.
