Florida bans AP psychology, College Board says, because of lessons on gender identity and sexual orientation, which violate state rules.
can we just take the colleges out of Florida
I suspect Florida’s censorship laws will eventually affect accreditation.
That’s what the Florida government wants. More specifically, the GOP wants to end accreditation.
And education.
Educated people tend to become skeptics. Skeptics tend to see through the religious bullshit, and there goes their power
Can we just take the Florida out of Florida
No but we can wall it off and make them pay for it,
This is the silver lining of climate change.
Apparently my free article limit was 0
Perhaps this will help. (Tool to get around paywall.)
Use archive.is. The 12 ft. ladder dev sold out to the NYT.
I’m going to take a step back from the topic itself.
I think the real problem here is that we can’t agree on what “fact” is. Both sides are certain that they are correct. Both sides can present what they believe is scientific evidence. How do we move forward from that? Both sides simply discredit the sources used in the science the other side is presenting. It seems that both sides are using brute force to push their belief. And that seems to just make the other side angrier and more dug in. How do we have conversations anymore?
Edit: oof. Yeah, that is where we are.
Gee, it’s almost as if when you have such a massive shift from the DSM-IV to the DSM-V you cause a rift. Who’d a thunk.
Florida will not allow public school students to take Advanced Placement psychology because the course includes lessons on sexual orientation and gender identity, topics forbidden by the state, the College Board said Thursday.
No, it’s because of bigots that want to suppress people who aren’t exactly like them.
The dsm-v released a decade ago, what are you talking about?
Geee it’s almost like science progresses and we learn new things and change our opinions based on evidence?
The DSM 5 was out when I was taking this class years ago. Don’t think that’s the problem…
Can You explain more? There actually isn’t massive changes from IV to V. The massive changes were from III to IV and V. Personally I dislike some of the changes and like others. The focus on spectrums is one I dislike. Not a fan of everything is a spectrum. I think precise diagnosis is important and spectrums make things more vague.
Dsm really isn’t taught in an intro course. It’s introduced but the first you’ll really approach it is a masters course or a doctorate level course.
I not aware of any state that allows someone with a bachelors degree to diagnoses. Most states required a doctorate to be a psychologist.
