Bullying

8.5K
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...

Group Polarization01:01

Group Polarization

34.4K
Group polarization is the strengthening of an original group attitude following the discussion of views within a group (Teger & Pruitt, 1967). That is, if a group initially favors a viewpoint, after discussion the group consensus is likely a stronger endorsement of the viewpoint. Conversely, if the group was initially opposed to a viewpoint, group discussion would likely lead to stronger opposition.

Surveys

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Psychosurgery01:30

Psychosurgery

85
Psychosurgery, the surgical alteration or permanent removal of brain tissue to alleviate severe psychological conditions, stands as one of the most radical and controversial treatments in the history of mental health care. Its development and application have evolved significantly, marked by dramatic shifts in scientific understanding and ethical perspectives.
Historical Development of Psychosurgery
In the 1930s, Portuguese neurologist Antonio Egas Moniz introduced a surgical procedure designed...

Bystander Effect02:09

Bystander Effect

9.6K
The discussion of bullying highlights the problem of witnesses not intervening to help a victim. This is a common occurrence, as the following well-publicized event demonstrates. In 1964, in Queens, New York, a 19-year-old woman named Kitty Genovese was attacked by a person with a knife near the back entrance to her apartment building and again in the hallway inside her apartment building. When the attack occurred, she screamed for help numerous times and eventually died from her stab wounds.

Threats to Biodiversity

22.6K
There have been five major extinction events throughout geological history, resulting in the elimination of biodiversity, followed by a rebound of species that adapted to the new conditions. In the current geological epoch, the Holocene, there is a sixth extinction event in progress. This mass extinction has been attributed to human activities and is thus provisionally called the Anthropocene. In 2019 the human population reached 7.7 billion people and is projected to comprise 10 billion by...

Summary

Public opinion shapes the understanding of cyber threats. Research shows people label data-disseminating cyberattacks as terrorism more than physical attacks, regardless of the attacker’s origin.

Area of Science:

  • Cybersecurity and International Relations
  • Public Opinion Studies
  • Political Science

Background:

  • Growing research in cyber-conflict, public opinion, and international security faces conceptual ambiguity.
  • The label "cyberterrorism" has significant implications for counterterrorism powers and public threat perception.
  • Public opinion's role in defining cyber threats is often overlooked amidst definitional disputes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a framework for understanding public classification of cyberattacks as cyberterrorism.
  • To empirically test how attributes of cyberattacks influence public perception of them as terrorism.
  • To examine cross-national public opinion on cyberterrorism in the United States, United Kingdom, and Israel.

Main Methods:

  • A ratings-based conjoint experiment involving 21,238 observations across three countries.
  • Development of a typological framework to identify drivers of cyberterrorism classification.
  • Comparative analysis of public perceptions of cyberattacks based on varying attributes.

Main Results:

  • The public does not label attacks by unknown actors or hacker collectives as cyberterrorism.
  • Attacks disseminating sensitive data are classified as terrorism more readily than physical attacks.
  • Uniform public perspectives across the US, UK, and Israel challenge existing international relations scholarship.

Conclusions:

  • Establishes a conceptual baseline for future research on cyberterrorism and public opinion.
  • Highlights the significant role of data dissemination as a factor in public perception of cyberterrorism.
  • Demonstrates surprising cross-national consensus on cyberterrorism definitions, challenging elite-driven foreign policy theories.
