Self-Schemas02:16

Self-Schemas

32.4K
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.

The Scientific Method01:32

The Scientific Method

246.4K
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...

Critical Thinking01:19

Critical Thinking

278
Critical thinking involves reflective and productive thinking and the evaluation of evidence. Critical thinkers seek to understand the deeper meaning of ideas, question assumptions, and make independent decisions about what to believe or do. Scientists, for instance, are often critical thinkers. Critical thinking also requires humility about what we know and don't know and the motivation to look beyond the obvious. It is essential for effective problem-solving.
Colleges and universities are...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

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...

Critical thinking helps decision-making and allows nurses to recognize barriers to success and find solutions to possible issues. It helps to brainstorm and implement ideas to achieve goals. Critical thinking helps acknowledge and state workflow inefficiencies while improving management techniques. Nurses understand the value of critical thinking and look for fellow nurses with critical thinking skills to upgrade their professional standards. Critical thinking can advance a nurse's career...

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

51.5K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Philosophy of Science
  • Political Science

Background:

  • Science's core strengths include openness, humility, self-criticism, and self-correction.
  • These principles are foundational to scientific integrity and trustworthiness.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the consequences of exploiting scientific strengths for political purposes.
  • To affirm the role of genuine scientific practices in maintaining trust.

Main Methods:

  • Conceptual analysis of scientific methodology and political discourse.
  • Case study review of instances where scientific principles were politicized.

Main Results:

  • Politicization undermines the genuine application of scientific strengths.
  • Trust in science erodes when its principles are manipulated for political agendas.

Conclusions:

  • Maintaining the integrity of scientific openness, humility, self-criticism, and self-correction is crucial.
  • Protecting science from political exploitation is essential for preserving public trust and scientific credibility.
