Self-Schemas02:16

Self-Schemas

32.6K
In general, 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.

Confirmation Biases

7.2K
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?

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...

Dietary Connections

In biological systems, most metabolic pathways are interconnected. The cellular respiration processes that convert glucose to ATP—such as glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, and the citric acid cycle—tie into those that break down other organic compounds. As a result, various foods—from apples to cheese to guacamole—end up as ATP. In addition to carbohydrates, food also contains proteins and lipids—such as cholesterol and fats. All of these organic compounds are used...

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

51.9K
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...

Data Validation01:03

Data Validation

5.5K
Data validation is an essential part of a comprehensive assessment. Validation is confirming or verifying and opening the door to gathering more assessment data as it clarifies vague or unclear data. The process of checking and verifying the collected information is called data validation. The primary purpose of data validation is to ensure data is as free from error, bias, and misinterpretation as possible.
Nursing assessment guides are generally based on holistic models rather than medical...

Area of Science:

  • Nutrition science
  • Scientific methodology
  • Epistemology

Background:

  • Values significantly influence scientific research, from question formulation to knowledge application.
  • The scientific community is moving towards value-aware science, emphasizing transparency and accountability over value-free ideals.
  • Current conflict of interest statements often narrowly focus on financial disclosures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To advocate for the integration of positionality statements in nutrition science.
  • To promote transparency, reflexivity, and open dialogue by acknowledging researchers' backgrounds and values.
  • To encourage a shift towards a perspectival epistemology for more reliable scientific knowledge.

Main Methods:

  • Drawing parallels with social sciences and humanities practices.
  • Proposing positionality statements to articulate the influence of researcher's background and values.
  • Utilizing case studies to illustrate various positionality statement styles.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated diverse approaches to crafting positionality statements.
  • Addressed potential criticisms regarding subjectivity and identity essentialism in positionality statements.
  • Provided a framework for implementing positionality in scientific practice.

Conclusions:

  • Embracing value-awareness and positionality enhances the credibility of nutrition science.
  • Positionality statements contribute to more socially engaged and reliable scientific outcomes.
  • A perspectival epistemology strengthens the scientific community through diverse viewpoints.
