English term or phrase: cultural bias
traducendo il seguente paragrafo la prima e l'ultima frase mi sembrano essere luna il contrario dell'altra. qualche suggerimento su come tradurre queste parti? e soprattutto cultural bias? Il testo è di tipo nutrizionistico.Grazie
"Last, a cultural bias against meatless diets contributed to publications
about and increased awareness of the potential health
risks of vegetarian diets. Until the 1970s, those following vegetarian
diets were assumed to be part of the antiestablishment,
underground culture or a religious sect and the avoidance of meat
to be practiced for reasons other than health (12, 13). Mainstream
society in industrialized nations, those paying for research, was
mainly composed of nonvegetarians. Therefore, most scientists
performing research probably did not perceive or, consequently,
resist this cultural bias."

Clarification request(s) and response
Josephine79: 7:19pm Oct 29, 2005: No contradiction IMO: Because society in general was prejudiced against meatfree diets there were many publications which insisted on the dangers of such a diet…… vegetarianism was seen as marginal ….. -
Josephine79: 7:20pm Oct 29, 2005: cont. .......so most scientists probably did not notice this anti vegetarian bias in society and because they could not see it they did not resist it. Hope this helps. -

agree transparx: si', stavo per rispondere piu' o meno allo stesso modo. non c'e' contraddizione dal punto di vista della struttura logica, anche se nella forma c'e' forse un 'missing link'. in particolare, 'therefore' e 'or, consequently' possono confondere il lettore
