Reply to comment by Kipzi in Vulnerable narcissism and body image self-consciousness contribute to sexual distress in men by chrisdh79
For accurately relaying the conclusion of a psychological paper that it links directly to? We should ban something on a science reddit for being informative?

There are better and worse studies. Psypost doesn't appear to distinguish based on quality, probably because their business model is making ad revenue from as many studies as possible.
Then for whatever reason, low quality studies are posted here with the link to Psypost rather than the actual study.

Psypost doesnt publish studies, they just provide further context for often paywalled studies.
The study has to be from a journal of a certain impact score or it gets removed from the sub.

What makes this a low quality study? It seems lazy to attack Psypost which is nothing more than a online site that does press releases for psychologically focused studies while linking directly to the study.

I would rather lazily attack Psypost for publicizing low quality studies than vigilantly defend Psypost for publicizing low quality studies. We must have different motivators, c'est la vie.

What makes the current study being discussed in the Psypost article low quality? You have not addressed that despite me asking multiple times.

-.- You evidently have more time to waste than I do. Cheers.

In the Psypost article:
> Study participants completed an assessment of sexual distress that used items from the Sexual Complaint Screener for Men (SCS-M), of body image self-consciousness (Male Body Image Self-Consciousness Scale), partner-oriented sexual perfectionism (Multidimensional Sexual Perfectionism Questionnaire) and pathological narcissistic traits of vulnerable, and grandiose narcissism (Pathological Narcissism Inventory, PNI)
They measure two different things in the field of psychology.

You evidently have no ability to follow scientific discussion and can't even read a simple press release.
Cheers

This is about as informative as "breathing polluted air bad". Almost always low quality posts from that particular site I've noticed.

Considering they are practically definitionally correlated, I think everyone who knew the terms was aware.

They are not definitionally correlated and are two different concepts which is why this paper south to correlate them.

Again, if you only read the context provided by PsyPost you would see your equivocation of the two terms shows an incorrect understanding of how the terms are defined in the field of psychology:
> Study participants completed an assessment of sexual distress that used items from the Sexual Complaint Screener for Men (SCS-M), of body image self-consciousness (Male Body Image Self-Consciousness Scale), partner-oriented sexual perfectionism (Multidimensional Sexual Perfectionism Questionnaire) and pathological narcissistic traits of vulnerable, and grandiose narcissism (Pathological Narcissism Inventory, PNI).
The two concepts measure different things.
Jason_Batemans_Hair t1_iy511fn wrote
Calling terms "definitionally correlated" is not "equivocation". There seem to be a lot of terms here that you don't understand.
I have no more time for this unproductive conversation. Cheers.
Yashema t1_iy523zb wrote
Again the Psypost press release cannot be any more clear that the two terms are measured by separate scales. You apparently understand little of psychology.
I assume most of your discussions are unproductive if you double down when shown to be wrong.
Cheers.
