How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
油
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying its good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation thats least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state theyre comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).Scotland's Museums and Galleries Strategy Symposium 2025 - education workshop...

Satoshi Nakamoto is not a person, Satoshi Nakamoto is a partnership of two individuals.
The partners have a formal written partnership agreement which governs the activities of the partnership.
The term Satoshi Nakamoto is actually a portmanteau of the individual pseudonyms of the two partners.
Satoshi is the pseudonym of Natasha, the maternal aunt of Vitalik Buterin and former cryptologist at the CSE's Tutte Institute for Mathematics and Computing. However, she's still a member of Canada's national security and intelligence community.
Nakamoto is the pseudonym of Anastasia, the younger sister of former Edmonton police officer Elena Sinelnikova.
The two partners can verify all of this via cryptographic proof employing either the bitcoin genesis block address or the bitcoin block 9 address. The latter being the address that was used to pay 10btc to Hal Finney on January 12, 2009.
The two will also verify that they did not mine any of the so called patoshi pattern bitcoins and that bitcoin block 9 does not adhere to that mining pattern.
The two also published the proof of stake whitepapper under the pseudonym Sunny King.
See https://academy.youngplatform.com/en/crypto-heroes/who-is-inventor-proof-of-stake/
They also published the CryptoNote whitepaper using another pseudonym, that of Nicolas van Saberhagen.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CryptoNote
They were also two of several individuals behind the thankful_for_today pseudonym who initiated the development of Monero.
see https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/2407/what-is-the-story-with-thankful-for-today-and-the-transfer-of-dev-control
They continued to be active in the industry they helped to initiate.
They were behind the involvement of Natasha's nephew Vitalik Buterin in the founding of the Ethereum project.
They worked behind the scenes on the development of the Metis project by their sisters Natalia Ameline and Elena Sinelnikova.
They worked behind the scenes on other projects in the crypto/blockchain industry as well.
Natasha's sister Natalia Ameline is one of the cofounders of Cryptochicks.ca along with Anastasia's sister Elena Sinelnikova.
Don't take my work for it though, Natalia can be contacted at natalia.ameline@cryptochicks.ca and Elena can be contacted at elena.sinelnikova@cryptochicks.ca - give them a shout why don't you?
Natasha and Anastasia also confirm and clarify the role that the organization known as Cicada 3301 played in the origin and development of bitcoin. That is an interesting story you will not want to miss out on.
They will also confirm for you all the folks who knew the truth about the origins of bitcoin and who have been lying about it.
Natasha expressed an interest moving from the Canadian intelligence community and becoming an RCMP officer prior to revealing the truth about her involvement in the development of the industry. Her stated objective is to work in the RCMP's Federal Policing National Security Program.

Science Not Shared is Science Lost: Bridging the Gap Between Research and Impact 鏝
In the heart of Africa, where innovation meets resilience, lies an untapped reservoir of scientific brilliance. Yet, too often, groundbreaking research remains confined within the walls of journals, inaccessible to the communities it seeks to serve. This February, I am thrilled to join the "Science Communication Beyond Journal Publications" workshop at the Uganda Virus Research Institute (UVRI) as one of the lead trainers. Together, we will unravel the power of storytelling, creative media, and strategic communication to amplify science's voice beyond academia.
Science is not just about discoveryit's about connection. Imagine a researcher in Kampala whose work could transform public health policy but struggles to translate their findings into actionable insights for policymakers. Or a young scientist in Nairobi whose groundbreaking study on climate resilience could inspire farmers but remains buried in technical jargon. These stories matter. They hold the potential to change lives and rewrite Africas narrative on poverty and development.
At this workshop, we will explore how scientists can collaborate with communicators to craft compelling stories that resonate with policymakers, communities, and global audiences alike. From podcasts that bring lab discoveries to life ｧ to press releases that spark media attention and digital tools that democratize knowledge we will empower participants to make their research accessible and impactful.
This mission aligns deeply with my belief that Africa MUST change the way it tackles poverty. Science communication is not just about sharing knowledge; it's about driving action. When researchers effectively communicate their work, they empower communities with solutions rooted in evidence. They influence policies that prioritize sustainable development. They inspire innovation that addresses grassroots challenges.
Let us humanize scienceinfuse it with stories of hope, struggle, and triumphand ensure it reaches those who need it most. Because when science connects with people, it transforms lives.
To my fellow scientists and communicators: this is our call to action. Lets bridge the gap between discovery and impact. Lets co-create stories that not only inform but inspire action across Africa and beyond.RBC_Indices_Presentation_physiology (1).pptx

Red blood cell (RBC) indices measure your red blood cells' size, shape, and quality. Red blood cells are also known as erythrocytes. They are made in your bone marrow (the spongy tissue inside your large bones). They contain hemoglobin, an iron-rich protein in your red blood cells that carries oxygen from your lungs to every cell in your body. Your cells need oxygen to grow, reproduce, and make energy.
Knowing the size and shape of your red blood cells can help your provider determine if you have a certain type of anemia, a condition in which your body does not make enough healthy red blood cells. There are four types of red blood cell indices:
Mean corpuscular volume (MCV), which measures the average size of your red blood cells.
Mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), which measures the average amount of hemoglobin in a single red blood cell.
Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), which measures how concentrated (close together) the hemoglobin is in your red blood cells. It also includes a calculation of the size and volume of your red blood cells.
Red cell distribution width (RDW), which measures differences in the volume and size of your red blood cells. Healthy red blood cells are usually about the same size.
If one or more of these indices are not normal, it may mean you have some type of anemia.
Other names: erythrocyte indices
What are they used for?
Red blood cell (RBC) indices are part of a complete blood count, a group of tests that measures the number and type of cells in your blood. The results of RBC indices are used to diagnose different types of anemia. There are several types of anemia, and each type has a different effect on the size, shape, and/or quality of red blood cells.
Why do I need red blood cell indices testing?
You may get this test as part of a complete blood count, which is often included in a routine checkup. You may also need this test if you have symptoms of anemia, which may include:
Shortness of breath
Weakness or fatigue
Headache
Dizziness
Arrhythmia (a problem with the rate or rhythm of your heartbeat)
Pale skin
Cold hands and feet
What happens during a red blood cell indices test?
A health care professional will take a blood sample from a vein in your arm, using a small needle. After the needle is inserted, a small amount of blood will be collected into a test tube or vial. You may feel a little sting when the needle goes in or out. This test usually takes less than five minutes.
Will I need to do anything to prepare for these tests?
You don't need any special preparations for a red blood cell (RBC) indices test.
Are there any risks to these tests?
There is very little risk to having a blood test. There may be slight pain or bruising at the spot where the needle was put in, but most symptoms go away quickly.
What do the results mean?
You will get results for each of the indices. Abnormal results may include one or more of the following:
Mean corpuscular volume (MCV)

ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding.

Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.More Related Content
