Understanding marginalization as a social determinant of health
Population-based studies have drawn attention to the associations between social and material disadvantage and poor mental and physical health over the life course, thereby contributing to inequalities in health. More recently, research in Britain has demonstrated that the effects of such disadvantage are cumulative through childhood and has shown that ‘ethnic minorities’ are at particular risk. This study gathered data from persons at risk, spec…
Joint Actions of Parents and Adolescents in Health Conversations
Based on an action theory approach, of 32 videotaped parent-adolescent conversations about health in two Canadian ethno-cultural groups were analyzed to identify and describe the joint action of parents and adolescents in the health domain. The data include manifest behavior (the conversation), internal processes (recalled thoughts and feelings on viewing the videotape of the conversation), and social meaning. These data were analyzed using the g…
Towards the Creation of a Culturally Safe Research Environment
Creating a culturally safe research environment is a challenge for all researchers but particularly for researchers engaged in intercultural research. This article sets out to examine whether action theory and the research methods associated with it have the potential for creating a culturally safe environment for the conduct of research. The article will examine issues inherent in intercultural research, provide an overview of cultural safety an…
Health care professionals and women speaking
In this paper, we draw upon research with women in middle and later life who have a chronic illness to explore the issues in their everyday lives that organize the management of their illness. Our analysis aims to show the complex interweaving of relations that constrain the women's management of illness, even when they use creative and innovative approaches to managing their illness. The constraints women experience cannot be adequately explaine…
Family Health- promotion Proj ects
The concept of the family health-promotion project is introduced as a means of describing and analysing health-promoting processes in a family. We suggest that an action-theoretical conceptualization provides a language for dealing with socially embedded human behaviour. The levels of project organization are described and the issues discussed are: hierarchical organization, communication, goal structure, steering, control, regulation, energizing…
