Learning in the social being system.

We argue that the core social being system is unlike other core systems in that it participates in frequent, widespread learning. As a result, the social being system is less constant throughout the lifespan and less informationally encapsulated than other core systems. This learning supports the development of the precursors of bias, but also provides avenues for preempting it.

Echocardiographic Progression of Peak Tricuspid Regurgitant Velocity Among Medicare Beneficiaries.

Background: Peak tricuspid regurgitant velocity (TRV) on transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is a commonly obtained parameter and robust predictor of subsequent adverse clinical outcomes.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the predictors and clinical significance of TRV progression.

Methods: We retrospectively linked consecutive outpatient TTE reports from our institution to 2005 to 2017 Medicare claims.

Black and White children's race-based information endorsement and teacher preference: Effects of school and neighborhood racial demographics.

The current study examined whether racially minoritized children and racial majority children demonstrate different race-based learning preferences and whether the racial demographics of their schools and neighborhoods predict these preferences. Race-based information endorsement and teacher preferences of Black and White 3- to 7-year-old children ( = 238) recruited from a metropolitan area in the midwestern United States were examined. Across racially homogeneous and diverse schools, both Black and White children showed a White preference in information endorsement and teacher preference.
