  • Résumé

  • The Semmelweis Reflex refers to the tendency to reject new evidence or insights that challenge established beliefs or practices, even in the face of compelling evidence. Named after Ignaz Semmelweis, a Hungarian physician who discovered the importance of hand hygiene in preventing infections in medical settings in the mid-19th century, this reflex highlights the resistance to change, especially when it contradicts deeply ingrained norms or beliefs.


    Challenge the 'Semmelweis Reflex' by staying open to new evidence and avoiding the dismissal of novel ideas. #SemmelweisReflex #MentalModels #OpenMindedness #Innovation #CriticalThinking
