Schemas01:42

Schemas

11.5K
A schema is a mental construct consisting of a cluster or collection of related concepts (Bartlett, 1932). There are many different types of schemata, and they all have one thing in common: schemata are a method of organizing information that allows the brain to work more efficiently. When a schema is activated, the brain makes immediate assumptions about the person or object being observed.

Integrated Healthcare System01:20

Integrated Healthcare System

1.5K
An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Signal and System01:26

Signal and System

589
A signal x(t) is a set of data or a time function representing a variable of interest. Signals typically convey information about a phenomenon, such as atmospheric temperature, humidity, human voice, television images, a dog's bark, or birdsongs. More generally, a signal can be a function of more than one independent variable. For instance, images depend on horizontal and vertical positions and can be regarded as two-dimensional signals. However, this text will focus on one-dimensional...

Introduction to Cognitive Psychology01:20

Introduction to Cognitive Psychology

230
Cognitive psychology is the field of psychology dedicated to examining how people think. It attempts to explain how and why we think the way we do by studying the interactions among human thinking, emotion, creativity, language, and problem-solving, as well as other cognitive processes. Cognitive psychology studies how information is processed and manipulated in remembering, thinking, and knowing.
This field emerged in the mid-20th century, following a period dominated by behaviorism, which...

Area of Science:

  • Sociology
  • Information Science
  • Technology Studies

Background:

  • Technological innovations over centuries have drastically reduced the cost of information production and distribution.
  • Societies are fundamentally shaped by information flow, influencing daily life, work, and social interactions.

Discussion:

  • Information architectures (IAs) encompass physical/digital infrastructures, norms, institutions, and algorithms governing information flow.
  • IAs can perpetuate societal biases, leading to both prosocial outcomes and social harms.
  • Rapid cultural evolution of IAs with human usage creates new interaction dynamics and challenges.

Key Insights:

  • Shifts in IAs significantly influence societal outcomes.
  • Understanding the social implications of increasing IA complexity is crucial.
  • Competition among IAs and mechanisms for their beneficial use require further investigation.

Outlook:

  • Further research is needed to explore the societal impacts of evolving information architectures.
  • Developing beneficial mechanisms for IA utilization is essential for positive social development.
  • Interdisciplinary approaches are vital for comprehending the multifaceted nature of information architectures.
