inoculation
含义: The introduction of a pathogen or antigen into a living organism to stimulate an immune response, or more broadly, the act of implanting an idea or attitude in someone's mind.
Inoculation originally referred to the practice of deliberately introducing a mild form of a disease to build immunity — a technique that predated modern vaccination. In contemporary medicine, it is often used interchangeably with vaccination, though technically inoculation is the broader term. 'Inoculate against,' 'mass inoculation,' and 'inoculation theory' are common collocations. In psychology, 'inoculation theory' describes how exposing people to weakened counter-arguments strengthens their resistance to persuasion.
