A recent study published in the Scandinavian Journal of Psychology unveils a newly developed psychological assessment designed to gauge adherence to principles associated with critical social justice. The assessment's application in a Finnish study sheds light on a notable correlation: a stronger embrace of these "woke" beliefs is linked to increased levels of anxiety and depression.
According to the study, the emergence of critical social justice, which concentrates on recognizing and rectifying systemic inequalities across various identity groups, has sparked conversations across academia, politics, and everyday interactions. This particular approach to social justice, often tied to concepts like intersectionality and antiracism, has garnered praise for acknowledging systemic hurdles faced by marginalized communities, while also facing criticism for its handling of identity and freedom of speech.
Despite the ongoing debate surrounding critical social justice, there has been a distinct lack of empirical data regarding its prevalence and impact.
Woke People More Prone To Unhappiness, Anxiety, And Depression, Says Study
The pilot survey included 851 adult participants.
A recent study published in the Scandinavian Journal of Psychology unveils a newly developed psychological assessment designed to gauge adherence to principles associated with critical social justice. The assessment's application in a Finnish study sheds light on a notable correlation: a stronger embrace of these "woke" beliefs is linked to increased levels of anxiety and depression.
According to the study, the emergence of critical social justice, which concentrates on recognizing and rectifying systemic inequalities across various identity groups, has sparked conversations across academia, politics, and everyday interactions. This particular approach to social justice, often tied to concepts like intersectionality and antiracism, has garnered praise for acknowledging systemic hurdles faced by marginalized communities, while also facing criticism for its handling of identity and freedom of speech.
Despite the ongoing debate surrounding critical social justice, there has been a distinct lack of empirical data regarding its prevalence and impact.
Acknowledging this gap, the author of the study set out to develop a dependable tool for measuring critical social justice attitudes and to delve into their prevalence and consequences.
The researchers started with a pilot survey of 851 adults, mostly from the University of Turku. After refining their initial assessment tool, they conducted a larger national survey with 5,000 participants. To reach a wider audience, they distributed the survey through Helsingin Sanomat, a major Finnish newspaper.
Their research journey involved thorough exploration of intersectional feminism, critical race theory, queer theory, and other pertinent academic fields that contribute to critical social justice understanding.
"I had been paying attention to a development in American universities, where a new discourse on social justice became prevalent in the 2010s," study author Oskari Lahtinen, a senior researcher at the INVEST Research Flagship Centre at the University of Turku and author of the book Onko mindfulnessista mihinkaan.
"While critical social justice (or intersectional or 'woke') discourse draws mainly from dynamics within American society it has now surfaced in other Western countries as well. The arrival of a critical social justice (often called 'woke') discourse sparked much debate in Finnish media in the last couple of years."

This Scandinavian study says a whole lot of nothing, but uses big words trying to say something.

Empathetic people are more prone to the negative effects of empathy.
What groundbreaking research.
Here’s the flip side, stupid fuckers are too ignorant and therefore stuff doesn’t bother them.

This Scandinavian study says a whole lot of nothing, but uses big words trying to say something. Good thing I am not woke. All you libs are woke, whether you admit it or not. Yes. We are. Empathy isn’t the own you think it is. Being educated and wealthier isn’t the own you think it is. Liberals are life educated, have more money, and more empathy than conservatives. We also take less food stamps and safety net programs. Yet, we don’t try to take them away from you. |

Liberals have no common sense, and have no care for human life. They only care about one thing, power. They want to control everybody. Lockdowns, mask mandates, vax mandates. They even pulled that shit with the military and now regret doing so. Who has more money? You're biggest base(blacks) have less money than other races. |

Yeah, that's why we want to end: racism, poverty, etc. That's why we wany everyone to have healthcare. African Americans are the biggest base of the Democratic Party? Mask mandates and vaccine mandates preserve human life, but we don't care about human life? I'll ask you again. And you've always been too scared to answer this. What is your highest level of education? |

Republicans don't give a shit. All they care about is that babies are born - but after that, go fuck yourself in life. Republicans have had many years now to come up with a healthcare plan or bring universal healthcare to the US and they have done literally nothing. Why? They don't really care. You do realize that the Covid lockdowns happened all over the world even with conservatives running things, yes? Had Trump been re-elected - nothing would change. In fact Trump was pushing the vaccine, but you conveniently want to ignore that. |

Neither the left nor the right has come up with a decent healthcare plan. Obamacare website was a failure in itself. Biden wants the working middle class to pay for others student loans. How is that fair to all the people who were responsible and paid it off themselves? Democrats want to tax poor people who make $600 from a garage sale. Stuff they already paid taxes on. Dems want to squeaze every tax dollar they can get from the poor, middle class, and the rich. |

What real vaccine are you talking about? Light or bleach or ivermectin? If there was something far worse than Covid tomorrow, lockdowns would happen again. You cannot run countries and cities and just let people be at risk with something spreading that can cause death - especially when you don't know how to deal with it at the time. Having said that, there are good and bad things with any decision made in life. Even if you agreed lockdowns were necessary, it would still have some negative impacts. |

Even Democrats dont believe in lockdowns or mandates. Gavin Newsome was out partying without masks when he was telling people to mask up and stay in their houses. Pelosi got caught as well. Rules for thee, but not for me. Trump doesn't support mandates, so its up to the individual if they want to get a shot. Its not hard to get healthcare in this country. There are plenty of options. Millions are on medicaid, and if you have a full time job you can get healthcare through your workplace. |

Millions are on medicaid, and if you have a full time job you can get healthcare through your workplace. So what? Everyone tried to get away with it. Everyone breaks the rules if they think a specific situation won't be a problem. That doesn't negate the fact that if something worse than Covid came back tomorrow with people dying at a much faster rate - that they would do the same exact thing again. You have to. It's not up for debate - millions have helped by Obamacare despite it's problems. The US healthcare system sucks and bankrupts people if you can't afford to pay for it. It's amazing healthcare if you are rich. You still haven't answered my question - if Republicans care so much about people - why did Trump lie about a healthcare plan that never came and the party literally hasn't had a plan for years now? Where is all this caring to replace Obamacare with something awesome for Americans |

It’s been working for nearly 100 years now. We don’t want working middle class to pay them. We want the 1% who had their loans canceled to pay them. I hope the next generation has it better than I do. That’s what caring about people is. Conservatives are fucking selfish. |

Talk about communist whackjobs. www.foxbusiness.com/energy/california-braces-new-electric-plan-make-more-pay-moreSo, charging people more for electricity is communist? Guess my state is communist. I just had to pay a $100 annual tax for electricity yesterday. Just an FYI my guy, a communist state has no money, no class, no government, but I don't expect you to believe or understand.  As for making the wealthy pay more than the lower classes, I'm all for that. |

Stop dodging and playing whataboutism. Trumpers only have dodging and whataboutism. Trump is able to fool the very stupid by accusing the other side of doing what he is doing. Then the other side sounds like they're gaslighting rather than being gaslit. It's absolute genius. |
