Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination02:55

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

90.3K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Changes in Skin Color: Clinical Perspectives

2.0K
The first thing a clinician sees is the skin, so the examination of the skin should be part of any thorough physical examination. Most skin disorders are relatively benign, but a few, including melanomas, can be fatal if untreated. A couple of the more noticeable disorders, albinism and vitiligo, affect the appearance of the skin and its accessory organs.
Albinism
Albinism is a genetic disorder that affects (completely or partially) the coloring of skin, hair, and eyes. The defect is primarily...

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.

Bias in Epidemiological Studies

352
Biases can arise at various stages of research, from study design and data collection to analysis and interpretation. Recognizing and addressing these biases is essential to ensure the validity and reliability of epidemiological findings.Broadly speaking, biases in epidemiology fall into three main categories: selection bias, information bias, and confounding. A more detailed description of possible biases is:

Skin Cancer01:30

Skin Cancer

4.2K
Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Dermatology Research
  • Socioeconomics in Medicine

Background:

  • Dermatology residency is highly competitive.
  • Dedicated research years are often pursued to enhance applicant competitiveness.
  • The financial implications of these research years are not well understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the financial costs associated with a dermatology research year.
  • To investigate how these costs differ across demographic groups.

Main Methods:

  • An anonymous survey was distributed to dermatology applicants who completed a research fellowship.
  • Survey data was collected via dermatology listservs and social media platforms.
  • Ninety participants completed the survey.

Main Results:

  • The median total cost of a research fellowship ($26,443.20) exceeded the median income ($23,625.00).
  • Minority respondents reported significantly lower total and fellowship income, and higher net costs.
  • Over half of participants found their research year financially stressful.

Conclusions:

  • Dermatology research years represent a significant financial cost, with a net loss for many.
  • Disparities in funding exist, disproportionately affecting minority applicants.
  • Recommendations include addressing funding inequities or re-evaluating the emphasis on research fellowships in residency selection.
