Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination02:55

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

90.2K
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...

The Scientific Method01:32

The Scientific Method

226.5K
The scientific method is a detailed, empirical problem-solving process used by biologists and other scientists. This iterative approach involves formulating a question based on observation, developing a testable potential explanation for the observation (called a hypothesis), making and testing predictions based on the hypothesis, and using the findings to create new hypotheses and predictions.
Generally, predictions are tested using carefully-designed experiments. Based on the outcome of these...

Antisocial Personality Disorder01:24

Antisocial Personality Disorder

46
Antisocial personality disorder is a chronic mental health condition characterized by persistent patterns of disregard for the rights and well-being of others. Individuals with antisocial personality disorder exhibit behaviors that include deceitfulness, impulsivity, irresponsibility, aggression, and a profound lack of empathy. These traits often manifest early in life and persist into adulthood, leading to significant personal, social, and legal consequences.

Psychology as a Science01:13

Psychology as a Science

694
Psychology, as a scientific discipline, aims to understand the mind and behavior through rigorous and systematic methods. The foundation of psychological research is evidence-based, relying heavily on the scientific method to derive and validate knowledge. This structured approach ensures that findings are reliable, valid, and applicable to broader contexts.
The scientific method in psychology involves six critical steps: making observations, formulating hypotheses, conducting tests, analyzing...

Confirmation Biases01:31

Confirmation Biases

5.5K
The confirmation bias is the tendency to focus on information that confirms our existing beliefs and ignore information that is inconsistent with our expectations. For example, if you think that your professor is not very nice, you notice all of the instances of rude behavior exhibited by the professor while ignoring the countless pleasant interactions he is involved in on a daily basis. Have you ever fallen prey to the confirmation bias, either as the source or target of such bias?

Epistasis Analysis01:09

Epistasis Analysis

5.0K
Although Mendel chose seven unrelated traits in peas to study gene segregation, most traits involve multiple gene interactions that create a spectrum of phenotypes. When the interaction of various genes or alleles at different locations influences a phenotype, this is called epistasis. Epistasis often involves one gene masking or interfering with the expression of another (antagonistic epistasis). Epistasis often occurs when different genes are part of the same biochemical pathway. The...

    Area of Science:

    • Public Health
    • Sociology
    • History

    Background:

    • Antivaccine activism and antiscience trends are rising globally.
    • These movements increasingly intersect with antisemitism, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.
    • Historical parallels exist, with Jewish communities persecuted during past pandemics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine the convergence of antiscience and antisemitism.
    • To provide historical and contemporary perspectives on this link.
    • To advocate for strategies to combat both phenomena.

    Main Methods:

    • Historical analysis of antisemitic and antiscience tropes.
    • Review of contemporary examples during the COVID-19 pandemic.
    • Personal narrative of a Jewish vaccine scientist.

    Main Results:

    • Far-right groups utilize Nazi imagery and conspiracy theories blaming Jewish people for COVID-19.
    • These tactics echo historical persecution of Jewish communities during plagues.
    • The author experienced direct targeting by these interconnected movements.

    Conclusions:

    • The convergence of antiscience and antisemitism poses a significant threat.
    • Uncoupling these movements requires dedicated strategies.
    • Addressing both is essential for public health, scientific integrity, and democratic values.
