Cognitive Dissonance01:38

Cognitive Dissonance

36.8K
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...

Deindividuation00:57

Deindividuation

30.2K
Deindividuation is a form of social influence on an individual’s behavior such that the individual engages in unusual or non-normal behavior while in a group setting. Why? Because in these group settings, the individual no longer sees themselves as an individual anymore, disinhibiting their behavior and personal restraint.

The Proteasome

Eukaryotic cells can degrade proteins through several pathways. One of the most important amongst these is the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. It helps the cell eliminate the misfolded, damaged, or unwarranted cytoplasmic proteins in a highly specific manner.
In this pathway, the target proteins are first tagged with small proteins called ubiquitin. A series of enzymes carry out the ubiquitination of the target proteins - E1 (ubiquitin-activating enzyme), E2 (ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme), and E3...

Peptic Ulcer Disease II: Pathophysiology

1.9K
Peptic Ulcer Disease (PUD) is characterized by the development of ulcers in the stomach or duodenal mucosa. Its pathophysiology is complex, involving a balance between damaging and protective elements.
Damaging agents such as Helicobacter pylori, gastric acid, pepsin, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can weaken the mucosal defense, allowing hydrogen ions to infiltrate back and harm epithelial cells.

Fundamental Attribution Error01:14

Fundamental Attribution Error

13.7K
According to some social psychologists, people tend to overemphasize internal factors as explanations—or attributions—for the behavior of other people. They tend to assume that the behavior of another person is a trait of that person, and to underestimate the power of the situation on the behavior of others. They tend to fail to recognize when the behavior of another is due to situational variables, and thus to the person’s state. This erroneous assumption is...

Area of Science:

  • Disability Studies
  • Higher Education Research
  • Sociology of Education

Background:

  • The concept of depathologising the university calls for a fundamental shift in how disability is understood and addressed within academic institutions.
  • Existing university structures often perpetuate ableist and disablist norms, necessitating a reevaluation of their relationship with disability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose and explore the ongoing process of depathologisation within the university.
  • To examine how academics, researchers, and professional colleagues actively contribute to dismantling ableist and disablist practices in higher education.

Main Methods:

  • Utilisation of novel composite conversations, a unique methodological form of experimental writing.
  • Reflection on practical experiences as principal investigators and research leaders in three funded research projects.

Main Results:

  • Academics and researchers are actively pushing back against university bureaucracy to foster co-production.
  • Critical appropriation of the 'performative university' concept is enabling greater access for colleagues.
  • Practical strategies are being implemented to enable access and inclusion for disabled individuals within the university setting.

Conclusions:

  • The university is already in the process of depathologisation, driven by the activism and scholarship of disabled people.
  • Depathologisation requires a significant reimagining of the university, involving active participation from all its members.
  • Ongoing efforts by those within the university are crucial for continued progress in creating a more inclusive and equitable environment.
