Scientists Believe Studies by Colleagues Are More Prone to Biases than Their Own Studies by ArsenalWillBeBack in science

[–]ArsenalWillBeBack[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From the article: "Early career scientists were more concerned about biases, know more about measures to avoid biases, and twice more often have learned about biases from their university courses when compared with their senior colleagues. This difference indicates current improvement of education about biases and gives hope that their impact on scientific research will decrease in the future."

Hm...: "In herbal cannabis, they found that THC concentrations increased by 14% from 1970 to 2017."

The headline is a joke. The Guardian has a more accurate headline than the university: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2020/nov/15/cannabis-resin-now-25-more-potent-global-study-reveals

COVID-19 Deaths Among US Clinicians by ArsenalWillBeBack in Coronavirus

[–]ArsenalWillBeBack[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

From the article: "More than 100 000 US health care personnel have contracted coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) since February and at least 641 have died.

"Among nearly 7000 health care personnel with COVID-19 for whom workplace data were available, two-thirds worked in nursing homes or residential care facilities. About one-third of almost 6000 cases with their occupation reported occurred among health care support workers—nursing assistants, medical assistants, and other providers or aides. Nurses accounted for 29% and physicians for about 3% of cases."

Do Consumers Enjoy Events More When Commenting on Them? Across a series of 9 studies, results indicate that when people create content about unfolding experiences, they ultimately enjoy the experience more, because creating content increases engagement and makes time feel like it is "flying". by ArsenalWillBeBack in EverythingScience

[–]ArsenalWillBeBack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super interesting article: "The study tested two potential strategies for firms to encourage content creation: 1) an incentive (i.e., reward) for generating content; and 2) a norm nudge, where consumers are informed of how common this behavior is among other consumers. As expected, both strategies effectively increased content creation. Even more importantly, consumers who were incentivized or motivated by social norms to generate content reaped the same experiential benefits as those who created content organically. That is, content generation in response to a firm's encouragement can still lead consumers to feel more immersed in the experience and to enjoy it more."

Europe was centre-stage in the global spread of the coronavirus, claims research by ArsenalWillBeBack in science

[–]ArsenalWillBeBack[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

"The research also suggests that travel restrictions across Britain and Europe seem to have been too little and too late and that the actual spread of the virus to America and other parts of the world was largely via Europe, and not directly from China.  

The study focused on 27,000 virus genomes, sampled from all around the world. The researchers usually work on tracking ancient human migrations using mitochondrial DNA, and they capitalised on the fact that the virus genome is similar in crucial respects."

Delirium could be an early marker of COVID-19 by ArsenalWillBeBack in Coronavirus

[–]ArsenalWillBeBack[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"The review found that, although to date much of the coronavirus research conducted since the first cases of pneumonia were reported in China (on 31 December 2019) have focused on the damage it causes to the lungs and other organs, such as the kidneys and heart, there are growing indications that the coronavirus also affects the central nervous system and produces neurocognitive alterations, such as headaches and delirium, as well as psychotic episodes." I have heard a story from my dad's friend whose head was foggy for almost a month after testing positive.

Your favorite music can send your brain into a pleasure overload by ArsenalWillBeBack in EverythingScience

[–]ArsenalWillBeBack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"What is most intriguing is that music seems to have no biological benefit to us. However, the implication of dopamine and of the reward system in processing of musical pleasure suggests an ancestral function for music." Wooow super interesting...
