A Columbia professor’s NIH-funded study linking historical lynchings to negative cognitive health outcomes for black people fails to meet basic scientific standards of rigor and validity.
Negative cognitive health outcomes are more likely caused by poverty and junk food. You could probably show a correlation between brain degradation and availability and use of Chick-fil-A, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Raising Cain and other fast food chains and low cost grocery stores. Surprisingly enough, those junk food outlets tend to be frequented by poor people, both black and white.
I can't express how much of a relief I feel that some of this pseudoscience will soon be ended, along with the idiocy of gender ideology. I only wish we could trust Republicans to do right by us instead of just destroying the other side.
So it would appear that NIH has money to burn. This is exactly how one goes about getting their funding cut. Done in by their own stupidity..........though there may be grant money available to study that conclusion.
I never had any living grandparents one of which died of malnutrition. Another was assinated by Yugoslavia partisans shouldn't i be able to claim psychological effects from these tragedies in my families? I found relief and beauty in reading, gardening, singing, This seems to be in line witha lot of other bogus pscy/social theories: repressed memories, feeding children answers....hospitals no longer report drugs in babies born there no stigma births,so no way to follow future problems.
The majority of people do not know how to analyze the methodology, results or conclusions presented in research papers. This is not surprising, given that most people have not studied research design. It is both surprising and disappointing, however, when people who have supposedly conducted one or more original research projects as grad students still can't perform a competent critique of researchers' work. We have an especially strong need at this time to be able to engage in scientific exploration and debates about what is real versus what is not, but our debates typically have to start with an explanation of what research is and how to use it to answer our questions. This is getting really old.
Replication crisis? I think you mean where some research is not replicable? Research takes time. It takes a number of different studies over some years all looking at different aspects of a topic to come to a theory. Some of the studies may contradict each other. But when the majority all point in the same direction then you have the beginning of a theory.
The median is the average of the 2 middle values when the data set contains an even number of values, so it can be 0.5, when the 2 middle values are 0 and 1 in an even numbered data set.
"Columbia professor. Manly is an agitator within the pro-Hamas campus movement." Pro-Hamas?? The demonstration are not even Pro-Palestinian. What they are is ANTI-WAR. Just as people against the Vietnam weren't Pro-communist, but Anti-War.
We have recently heard from Stuart Seldowitz, the State Department's envoy for Palestine and Israel, who was repeatedly harassing and trying to provoke an Arab vendor, yelling at him that "Four thousand dead Palestinian children are NOT ENOUGH! NOT ENOUGH." Of course, there are now over thirty thousand Palestinian children dead, not counting those dying under the rubble of what has become an extermination camp. But those protesting this horror are called terrorists, harassed, jailed and deported. There have been many other attacks on people thought to be Palestinians by people like Mordeciai Brafman who saw two people he thought were Palestinian. He stopped, got out of his truck, he said he shot and killed them. The victims survived. They were Israeli visitors, not Palestinians. At the hospital the Israel tourist posted, "kill all Arabs." Since the start of U.S. and Israel's war in Gaza other incidents include the attempted drowning of a 3-year-old Palestinian American girl in Texas, the fatal stabbing of a 6-year-old Palestinian American boy in Illinois, the stabbing of a Palestinian American man in Texas, the beating of a Muslim man in New York, a violent mob attack on pro-Palestinian protesters in California and the shooting of three Palestinian American students in Vermont.
Thousands of Palestinians killed in 2009 Cast Lead and two thousand in 2014 minus outrage orretribution.
Why has no one raised the alarm over 23,000 U.S.A. citizens who have gone to Israel to fight in their genocidal war against the Palestinians? Isn't it illegal to join the military of another country to possibly give your life for the political motives of another government? Anti-war protesters in the USA are losing jobs, being expelled and deported for being against the Israeli war. Why aren't the Americans volunteering for the Israeli genocide being tried for treason, or at least arrested upon returning from Israel or being stopped at the border and sent back to Israel and having their U.S. citizenship revoked? Over 23,000 Americans working for Israel - WHO ARE THEY? They need to be identified and held accountable for their role in the Genocide
Leaving aside the fact that this study concerns black people, the simple correlation of stress experienced as children with worse health outcomes in adults is pseudo-science. It is one thing to say that stress is bad for one's health, and it is another to claim that stress is the cause of brain issues and general worse outcomes in a population.
Are we entering an era of enlightenment? We are watching a public auditing of how our tax monies are being spent. As this article points out the "peer reviewed" hive of scum and villainy might be ripe for similar scrutiny.
This guy's “research” seems umb but when someone critical of exaggerated race hysteria and identity politics accuses s professor of being “pro-Hamas” it sounds to me just like woke people calling everyone a white supremacist for mere criticizing a racial ideology. Almost nobody is pro-Hamas just like almost nobody is a white supremacist without concept creeping the term into the ground.
Thank you for the article, bringing to light shallow race-baiting work that robs millions from other credible research is always worth calling out. The content and purported data is at best amusing, it should take its place in the Journal of irreproducible results. A review of her other publications show the same agenda-driven, 2 dimensional work, void of academic rigor.
Its clear why credential/certificate work in todays deep & wide TEK world is far more valuable.
its pitiable that the Ivy has rotted, the activism flourishes devouring OPM, and the value of a diverse education has been co-opted for race-agendas.
Hopefully the private investors will redirect funding to real STEM training/institutions, and drag us out of the global last-place education slot.
Historical trauma does not inevitably lead to negative cognitive outcomes. Jewish, Armenian, Japanese, Irish, and Norwegian populations have achieved remarkable success despite significant historical traumas. Norway and Japan transformed from violent pasts to become global leaders, demonstrating that resilience and adaptability can overcome historical challenges.
Research claiming historical trauma prevents success can be harmful, fostering a victimhood mentality that undermines resilience and determination. This narrative creates a self-fulfilling prophecy of dependency and stagnation, hindering progress. Such research, often promoted by self-proclaimed liberals, risks enslaving people through ideology and pseudoscience.
Poverty, poor nutrition, and single-parent households are more strongly linked to negative outcomes than historical trauma. Growing up in a single-parent home is a key indicator of potential developmental challenges and increased likelihood of criminal behavior across all races. This pattern tends to perpetuate itself, as children from single-parent homes are more likely to become single parents themselves.
The ultimate truth is that freedom comes from responsibility. Growing up means taking responsibility, not blaming others or relying on handouts. However, misguided policies often entrap cultures in cycles of dependency. Policies emphasizing state support over personal accountability can undermine cultural maturity by discouraging self-reliance and perpetuating victimhood narratives. True progress requires fostering resilience and responsibility at both individual and societal levels.
Negative cognitive health outcomes are often linked to poverty, poor nutrition, and single-parent households. Single-parent families, particularly those in poverty, face heightened risks of criminal behavior and personal development challenges, regardless of race....
fair criticisms but the headline is quackery of its own. Rage bait for anti-education clicks, implying that ALL of Columbia's medical research is suspect (so much research; incredible volumes of respected, valuable and often critical research from which you plucked out the crazy bits) when in fact the research cited isn't even "medical" as such but socio-medical. It should be called out, certainly. But you lose credibility when your headline is as half-cocked and baseless as the research you criticize. Any good points you have are tainted by your contempt.

If lynching made blacks dumber then one might expect that the world's Jews would have all become imbeciles after the holocaust.
End all Federal Government support of universities.
Good way to put us behind every other country in the world.
Nice to hear from you
Behind in what? Generating BS papers?
Considering that for many years we have been at the top of cutting edge research, I would say most of the research is not BS.
The replication crisis suggests otherwise.

> What they are is ANTI-WAR.
Hint: who started the war.
> Just as people against the Vietnam weren't Pro-communist, but Anti-War.
BTW, most of the leaders were in fact pro-Communist.

There is no Genocide, stop lying.

I think they’re desperately trying to build an evidence base to support made-up TV science which claims racism causes cancer.

You should reread what you wrote here, as it's fairly incoherent
