Bullying

8.3K
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...

Current Trends in Nursing II

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

89.7K
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).

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 COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.

Surveys02:16

Surveys

14.7K
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.

Reliability and Validity01:29

Reliability and Validity

12.6K
Reliability and validity are two important considerations that must be made with any type of data collection. Reliability refers to the ability to consistently produce a given result. In the context of psychological research, this would mean that any instruments or tools used to collect data do so in consistent, reproducible ways.

Area of Science:

  • Sociology
  • Geography
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Digital infrastructure and internet access are crucial for economic, educational, and social participation.
  • Significant disparities, known as digital divides, persist based on social, demographic, and environmental factors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the associations between socio-demographic characteristics and internet access at the county level.
  • To identify the spatial nature of digital divides.

Main Methods:

  • Geographic statistical analysis using spatial regression.
  • Application of a spatial error model and residual analysis.

Main Results:

  • Persistent social, demographic, and environmental digital divides were highlighted.
  • Disparities are particularly evident concerning race, rurality, and education.
  • Current digital opportunity expansion efforts are insufficient for lower-resource and marginalized communities.

Conclusions:

  • Digital divides are spatially concentrated and linked to socio-demographic factors.
  • Addressing digital inequity requires targeted strategies for underserved populations.
  • Further research is needed to understand and mitigate these persistent disparities.
