Abortion Policy as Structural Sexism
Both pre- and post- Dobbs research has found that policies restricting abortion access are associated with an increased risk of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. Previous research demonstrates stigma within reproductive health as a fundamental cause of health inequalities. In this study, we differentiate between state-level policies that restrict access to care compared to policies that foster uncertainty, stigmatize, or induce shame among abo…
State-level structural sexism and cardiovascular disease outcomes in the United States
Policy Brief
Health consequences of structural sexism
Structural heteropatriarchy and maternal cardiovascular morbidities
Structural Racism and Health Stratification
Less than 1% of studies on racialized health inequities have empirically examined their root cause: structural racism. Moreover, there has been a disconnect between the conceptualization and measurement of structural racism. This study advances the field by (1) distilling central tenets of theories of structural racism to inform measurement approaches, (2) conceptualizing U.S. states as racializing institutional actors shaping health, (3) develop…
Structural Sexism and Preventive Health Care Use in the United States
Preventive health care use can reduce the risk of disease, disability, and death. Thus, it is critical to understand factors that shape preventive care use. A growing body of research identifies structural sexism as a driver of population health, but it remains unknown if structural sexism is linked to preventive care use and, if so, whether the relationship differs for women and men. Gender performance and gendered power and resource allocation …
Methods for studying structural oppression in quantitative family research
Researchers have long documented the impact of social inequalities on family life. Most family research has focused on inequalities at the individual and family levels, and extant studies on macro-level conditions have primarily examined economic conditions and specific family-focused social policies. Yet, an emerging body of largely conceptual research suggests that structural inequities also have enormous power to shape families. Structural rac…
Income Support Policy Packages and Birth Outcomes in U.S. States
Racialized Health Inequities
Racism drives population health inequities by shaping the unequal distribution of key social determinants of health, such as socioeconomic resources and exposure to stressors. Research on interrelationships among race, socioeconomic resources, stressors, and health has proceeded along two lines that have largely remained separate: one examining differential effects of socioeconomic resources and stressors on health across racialized groups (moder…

Empirical evidence on structural racism as a driver of racial inequities in Covid-19 mortality
Objective This study contributes to the literature by empirically testing the extent to which place-based structural racism is a driver of state-level racial inequalities in COVID-19 mortality using theoretically-informed, innovative approaches. Methods CDC data are used to measure cumulative COVID-19 death rates between January 2020 and August 2022. The outcome measure is a state-level Black-White (B/W) ratio of age-adjusted death rates. We use …
Structural Heteropatriarchy and Birth Outcomes in the United States
Emerging evidence links structural sexism and structural discrimination against lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) populations to poor health outcomes, but studies have yet to examine the combined effects of these mutually reinforcing systems of inequality. Therefore, we developed a composite measure of structural heteropatriarchy—which includes state-level LGB policies, family planning policies, and indicators of structural sexism (e.g., women's p…

Improving The Measurement Of Structural Racism To Achieve Antiracist Health Policy
Antiracist health policy research requires methodological innovation that creates equity-centered and antiracist solutions to health inequities by centering the complexities and insidiousness of structural racism. The development of effective health policy and health equity interventions requires sound empirical characterization of the nature of structural racism and its impact on public health. However, there is a disconnect between the conceptu…

When Religion Hurts
An emerging line of research has begun to document the relationship between structural sexism and health. This work shows that structural sexism-defined as systematic gender inequality in power and resources-within U.S. state-level institutions and within marriages can shape individuals' physical health. In the present study, we use a novel dataset created by linking two nationally representative surveys (the General Social Survey and the Nationa…
Structural Intersectionality as a New Direction for Health Disparities Research
This article advances the field by integrating insights from intersectionality perspectives with the emerging literatures on structural racism and structural sexism-which point to promising new ways to measure systems of inequality at a macro level-to introduce a structural intersectionality approach to population health. We demonstrate an application of structural intersectionality using administrative data representing macrolevel structural rac…
The Color of Covid-19
While the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is an unprecedented crisis, the racial/ethnic health inequalities among older adults it has exposed are longstanding and deeply rooted in structural racism within American society. This knowledge presents both challenges and opportunities for researchers and policymakers as they seek to address the needs of older adults. It is imperative that federal, state, and local governments collect and release comprehensi…
Structural Sexism and Health in the United States
In this article, I build a new line of health inequality research that parallels the emerging structural racism literature. I develop theory and measurement for the concept of structural sexism and examine its relationship to health outcomes. Consistent with contemporary theories of gender as a multilevel social system, I conceptualize and measure structural sexism as systematic gender inequality at the macro level (U.S. state), meso level (marit…
Being and Becoming Poor
Prior research on stratification beliefs has investigated individuals’ understandings regarding the causes of poverty in America. These past studies have uncovered demographic characteristics associated with individualist and structuralist explanations for poverty. In the current study, we will argue that Americans, like social scientists, envision poverty as a heterogeneous and complex phenomenon. We utilize a cultural cognition theoretical appr…
