Mood Repair

Throughout my research, a challenge I encountered was the fact that some of the articles I encountered seemed to included biases within them especially with the primary view of

According to Greenhalgh (2010), there are four kinds of bias which must be addressed during randomized controlled trials (p. 52):

The article was accurate in study, although the study was old but it was created by many scholars and looked at the study from a scientific point of view. It was held no bias.

The review of this is objective there are no personal biases given in this study as they asked the participants the questions and documented their answers on the survey tool that was standardized for each person’s responses. The review was very detailed and followed the proper qualitative process. There are points in the article where the writers do paraphrase the statements that were found in previous

Discuss possible forms of bias that the authors mention in the discussion section or that you think might be present. Consider the possibility of the following biases (but don’t be surprised if you have nothing to say about some or

many people since the modern era. “This contribution traces succinctly the conceptual development of depressive bipolar disorders from Grace-Roman views, though the Enlightenment into the modern era(Davison,2006).” According to a recent study only 1% of people have a bipolar disorder and only 50% of people have a depression disorder.

Thank you for involving me in the review of this manuscript. Bias and/or risk of bias, is a very critical topic in health research methodology. This is a project generally well-conducted and a manuscript well written; but my major concern is whether the researchers answered a scientifically meaningful question. And consequently, I am concerned with the implication of the product of this study. I recommend to reject this manuscript.

18. What biases or misclassification might be a problem in the study? What is your rationale?

Biases have and will appear during the conduct of peer review, it is an unfortunate consequence of human nature.

        A researcher should be aware of personal  and society biases  and should engage in nondiscriminatory practices when reviewing literature.  Care most be taken in determining what should or shouldn't be publish to maintain the integrity of scientific research.

Bias and weaknesses: I believe that the investigators have correctly protected the study from information, selection, and confounding biases. By doing this, they increase the validity and reliability of their study.

When I was reading Happiness Hypothesis by Jonathan Haidt, what he had to say about relationships really resonated with me. Whenever he spoke on relationships or interactions between people, my mind immediately turned to my high school choir. They were the most important people in my life throughout all of my high school career, and many of the concepts illustrated in Haidt’s book resonated with me deeply. Haidt’s statements particularly resounded with me when he spoke on the topics of divinity (in my case, divinity with God), companionate love, the importance of a present and tangible parent, and flow. Divinity and companionate love I felt when I had real and emotional experiences with them, the importance of a present parent was reinforced for me when I saw how much they depended on each other when their parents were divorced, and flow I felt whenever I sang with my choir. These experiences shaped me and turned me into the man I am today, and Haidt’s book certainly helped me explain and understand these experiences in a more profound way.
