This current administration doesn’t care about the health of Americans. They’re more interested in making cuts to much needed community services so they can enrich themselves and their donors.
@solarbrad63@simonmaechling So, your original comment, Brad @solarbradd63...
"There are no experts, just those seeking grants or publication."
... was just super goofy.
@solarbrad63@simonmaechling Also, the actual percentage of fake references, Brad, comes out to :
"Based on the Columbia University audit published in The Lancet, out of 97.1 MILLION verified references,the 4,046 likely fake citations account for a reference-level fake rate of approximately (0.0042%) ..."
One of the things that was so interesting about the interview with Trump over the weekend was how enraged he became when the female interviewer politely asked him for evidence to back up his allegations.
It reminded me so strongly of some of the ‘critical’/anti-psychs on this platform, who appear to feel entitled to ignore evidence, and to fail to provide it even when they are so vehement about their claims.
The mere question “evidence?” Is like a red rag to a bull sometimes.
@solarbrad63@simonmaechling Brad, you have no proof of the nonsense you just posted.
You need to post an example of that backed by EVIDENCE before I’m even going to take you, seriously.
No evidence- based example?
Then, you’re wasting my time.
@FarewellSSRI@jonathanstea@DrAnnieHickox@pash22 It was a general comment.
Here’s my suggestion: use your Google search engine and ask Google “are mental health professionals required to have some knowledge in the field of Science.”
Then, from there, you can get more specific with your questions.
@sootyblack@atrupar I believe his plan is always the same: he’ll just lie about it.
This is his SOP for everything he does in his life: fabricate and, then, fabricate some more.
@solarbrad63@simonmaechling Why is it not okay for someone educated, trained and actively practicing in their specific field to publish information that will benefit others?
You’re not making any sense.
Science and mental health literacy can be hard for anti-psychiatry zealots, especially those who lack the requisite training and background.
In psychology, training programs that are predicated on a scientist-practitioner model help students learn how to be both scientists and clinicians, which is necessary to produce clinicians who also value science and are able to understand and consume science in order to inform their practice. These kinds of training programs are ideal and help to prevent the kind of misinformation we see announced from psychologists who’ve never stepped foot in a lab and aren’t positioned to read and understand the scientific literature. 😊👍
@jonathanstea@DrAnnieHickox@FarewellSSRI@pash22 I wondered if the scope of knowledge in the mental health field included having to have knowledge in the field of Science.
Thank you for clarifying that.
I have an entire chapter on epizootics in my forthcoming book with @mitpress “Texas Fever Frontier: How Deadly Epidemics Shaped the Lone Star State and America’s Destiny” the final title might be tweaked but you get the idea
My view: We should be careful about assigning blame to the re-emergence of New World Screwworm (NWS) in Texas. We have unique vulnerabilities to epizootics (animal epidemics) bc of our climate/geography. At anytime we could see the re-emergence of NWS, Texas cattle fever (babesiosis) African swine fever. It could happen on anyone’s watch; the key is constant surveillance, quarantine, and new technologies
