Motivating Health Justice and Diversity Through Medical School Admissions
It is undeniable that bigotry and discrimination predate the official founding of our nation, even if we only consider the status and treatment of Indigenous populations, enslaved Africans, and women. The civil rights movement of the mid-20th century contributed to the passage of civil rights laws, suggesting the promise of national progress on human rights overall. However, during the summer of 2020, as a nation we found ourselves facing a ragin…
Epistemic Evaluation
This volume aims to explore and apply a particular methodology in epistemology. The methodology is to consider the point(s) or purpose(s) of our epistemic evaluations, and to pursue epistemological theory in light of such matters. Call this purposeful epistemology. The idea is that considerations about the point and purpose of epistemic evaluation might fruitfully constrain epistemological theory and yield insights for epistemological reflection.…

Accounting for macro-level causation
Interpretation and explanation in the human sciences
On the Testability of Psychological Generalizations (Psychological Testability)
Rosenberg argues that intentional generalizations in the human sciences cannot be law-like because they are not amenable to significant empirical refinement. This irrefinability is said to result from the principle that supposedly controls in intentional explanation also serving as the standard for successful interpretation. The only credible evidence bearing on such a principle would then need conform to it. I argue that psychological generaliza…
On the Sociology of Science and the Continuing Importance of Epistemologically Couched Accounts
I argue that there remains a significant place in the sociology of science for epistemologically couched accounts. By examining `strong programme' work, particularly Andrew Pickering's history of HEP, I show how the decidedly social aspects accentuated in sociological accounts typically have parallel epistemic aspects. The treatment of such aspects as explanatory factors often complements decidedly sociological accounts. This view is defended aga…
Potential for laboratory exposures to biohazardous agents found in blood
The magnitude of risk for occupational exposures to biohazardous agents found in blood was assessed by 800 environmental samples taken from a total of 10 clinical and research laboratories at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Thirty-one samples from 11 work stations in three laboratories contained hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg). Observations of workers indicated that environmental contamination arose from several sources. Among …
