Summarization
The tweets discuss the issue of the "science-practice schism" in psychology, where academic psychologists who teach psychology 101 have no meaningful exposure to clinical psychology. This leads to a lack of understanding and willful obstinance towards clinical psychology, which is an ideology that reasoning and information cannot overcome. The content and design of psychology textbooks perpetuate inaccurate and biased perspectives, which reinforces the cycle. However, some psychologists are passionate about changing this and tailoring their lectures to be more engaging and critical. The difficulty of re-inventing the wheel for psychology courses cannot be underestimated, but a shift towards primary sources could help. The tweets also touch on the issue of arrogance and ideology among academics in psychology, but there are also curious and less disparaging colleagues.
Topic Modeling
- Academic psychology and clinical psychology as parallel universes
- The challenge of teaching accurate information in Psych101
- The struggle against ideological obstinance
- The need for reform in the psychology department
- The impact of biased course materials in psychology education

That’s the ideological part you’re talking about. And it’s not just lack of information, it’s willful obstinance. | 24 |
