Schemas

11.6K
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.

Bullying

8.4K
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...

Influence of Parents and Peers on Identity

47
Adolescence is a pivotal period of identity formation, during which individuals begin to answer questions central to their sense of self, such as "Who am I?" and "Who do I hope to become?" Both parents and peers play critical roles in guiding adolescents through this complex developmental phase.
Parental Influence on Identity Development
Parents serve as primary guides and managers in an adolescent's life, offering support instrumental in decision-making and personal growth....

Bystander Effect02:09

Bystander Effect

9.5K
The discussion of bullying highlights the problem of witnesses not intervening to help a victim. This is a common occurrence, as the following well-publicized event demonstrates. In 1964, in Queens, New York, a 19-year-old woman named Kitty Genovese was attacked by a person with a knife near the back entrance to her apartment building and again in the hallway inside her apartment building. When the attack occurred, she screamed for help numerous times and eventually died from her stab wounds.

Molecular Factors Affecting Cell Division01:27

Molecular Factors Affecting Cell Division

3.0K
Several external and internal factors influence the initiation and inhibition of cell division. For instance, the death of nearby cells or the release of human growth hormone (hGH) promotes cell division. In contrast, lack of hGH or crowding of cells can inhibit cell division.
Several proteins function as internal regulators to ensure each cell cycle stage is completed faithfully before proceeding to the next. Regulator molecules may act directly or influence the activity or production of other...

Stimulants01:29

Stimulants

172
Stimulants are substances that enhance neural activity and elevate dopamine levels in the brain, leading to their highly addictive nature. These drugs include cocaine, amphetamines, MDMA, caffeine, and nicotine, each with distinct mechanisms of action and varied health implications.
Cocaine can be administered via snorting, injection, or smoking. It primarily functions by blocking the reuptake of dopamine, resulting in a euphoric high characterized by an intense sensation of happiness and...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Transportation Safety
  • Behavioral Science

Background:

  • Cellphone-related driver distraction causes significant fatalities, injuries, and economic costs annually.
  • Young drivers are disproportionately involved in distracted driving incidents.
  • Existing laws aim to curb cellphone use while driving, but their effectiveness varies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the impact of all-driver and young-driver cellphone laws on teen drivers' texting behaviors.
  • To compare the effectiveness of different types of legislation in reducing distracted driving among adolescents.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of data from 110,193 high school students across 42 states (2013-2019 Youth Risk Behavior Survey).
  • Utilized survey-weighted modified Poisson regression to estimate associations between laws and texting behaviors.
  • Controlled for state-level legislative variations.

Main Results:

  • 54% of high school student drivers reported monthly texting while driving.
  • All-driver texting laws combined with young-driver laws did not reduce texting.
  • All-driver comprehensive handheld bans, without young-driver specific laws, were associated with a 26% lower prevalence of texting while driving.
  • Young-driver cellphone laws alone showed no significant reduction in texting.

Conclusions:

  • All-driver handheld bans are effective in reducing teen texting while driving.
  • Young-driver specific cellphone laws have limited effectiveness.
  • Implementing all-driver handheld bans is recommended for states without such legislation to enhance road safety.
