Dimensions of Health and Illness01:21

Dimensions of Health and Illness

7.4K
The factors influencing the health-illness continuum can be internal or external and may or may not be under conscious control. They are related to the following eight human dimensions, and each dimension is interrelated to one other.

Social Facilitation

32.0K
Not all intergroup interactions lead to negative outcomes. Sometimes, being in a group situation can improve performance. Social facilitation occurs when an individual performs better when an audience is watching than when the individual performs the behavior alone. This typically occurs when people are performing a task for which they are skilled.

Biodiversity and Human Values

Human civilization relies on biodiversity in many ways. Sudden changes in species biodiversity result in environmental changes that can modify weather patterns and therefore human civilizations.

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

5.2K
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...

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss

25.6K
Though evaporation from plant leaves drives transpiration, it also results in loss of water. Because water is critical for photosynthetic reactions and other cellular processes, evolutionary pressures on plants in different environments have driven the acquisition of adaptations that reduce water loss.

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

49.9K
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...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

A two-decade-old vulnerability framework for sustainability science, focusing on social-environmental systems (SES), has high citation recognition but limited adoption of its proposed dimensions. This highlights a persistent focus on societal vulnerability over integrated social-environmental approaches.

Area of Science:

  • Sustainability Science
  • Resilience Research
  • Environmental Science

Background:

  • The first vulnerability framework for sustainability science was published ~20 years ago.
  • It integrated vulnerability analysis into the social-environmental system (SES) lens.
  • It advocated for considering both social and environmental subsystem vulnerabilities, moving beyond a sole focus on societal vulnerability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the impact of the original vulnerability framework on subsequent studies.
  • To assess the framework's recognition through citations, citation pathways, and fields of study.
  • To evaluate the extent to which the framework's proposed dimensions were utilized.

Main Methods:

  • Bibliometric analysis of vulnerability publications.
  • Analysis of citation networks and fields of study.
  • Assessment of the application of the framework's dimensions.

Main Results:

  • The framework received significant citation recognition.
  • However, this recognition was not consistently matched by the adoption of its proposed analytical dimensions.
  • Several exceptions were noted where dimensions were employed.

Conclusions:

  • The discrepancy between citation recognition and dimension adoption may stem from the framework's analytical complexity.
  • A continued strong focus on societal vulnerability, rather than social-environmental vulnerability, persists.
  • This is notable given the current emphasis on sustainability in the Anthropocene.
