Medical Anthropology as the Foundation to a Graduate Public Health Certificate Online Program at East Carolina University
A Community Activist, a Cultural Anthropologist, and an Archaeologist Walk into a Cemetery
In 1914, following the passage of Jim Crow segregation laws, over a dozen African American graves were exhumed from the primarily White Cedar Grove Cemetery in New Bern, North Carolina and reburied in the nearby Black Greenwood Cemetery. A century later, local community activists contacted anthropologists at East Carolina University to investigate the site of this atrocity. Archaeological work relocated the reburied remains and found them to be i…
Working at the National Institutes of Health
This article reviews a portion of my professional career in academia and outside of academia for the purpose of highlighting the cross-over professional development skills that I learned to use in different fields of expertise. Although I had received my academic doctoral training at an applied medical anthropology program (Wayne State University, Detroit, MI) in the 1980s and a few years later completed a postdoctoral fellowship program which ea…
A New Online Strategy in Teaching Racial and Ethnic Health and Health Disparities to Public Health Professionals
African American Alternative Medicine
In order to examine the importance of alternative medicine to the African American population, this book focuses on the African American health belief system and the treatment strategies often used and documented. This book includes a cultural-historical view of alternative medicine's use within the African American community and shows how it was an integral part of African American culture. The author highlights a number of studies that examine …
Medical Anthropology and African American Health
The field of medical anthropology is a discipline that incorporates the perspective of a wide range of approaches—from anthropologists, sociologists, epidemiologists, physicians, nurses, public health administrators, biologists, and many others, including the general public—to health care. This approach places culture and cultural relativism at the forefront and center of every model, and examines the ethics and fairness of health care issues ass…
Offsite Planning for Nuclear Installations and Incidents InvolvingRadioactivity
Currently, legislation relating to hazardous sites is becoming more rigorous, with the exception of nuclear installations and these are being addressed. A particular facet of accidents at nuclear installations involving radioactivity is potassium iodate prophylaxis as a counter measure. Effective distribution of stable iodine is important, with early issue to an affected populace critical. Present arrangements are unsatisfactory in that the Polic…
Post‐traumatic Stress Disorder
The belief that large‐scale natural disaster can bring severe stress and deviant behaviour has existed for some time, and incidents have been described from as far back as the 1800s in America. The resultant behaviour was categorized, in 1980, as “post‐traumatic stress disorder” (PTSD). There is a division among those interested in the psychological consequences of large‐scale disaster. One school argues that mental health effects are significant…
Community health screening programs for African-Americans and the medical anthropologist
Hypertension
The author investigated the treatment patterns for hypertension among 285 African Americans in the Detroit Metropolitan area. Data analyses showed that sociocultural and psychosocial factors determine the degree to which African Americans adhere to their folk medicine system. The persistence of folk medicine provides a meaningful alternative to allopathic medicine for many African Americans because of its role in maintaining a sense of ethnic ide…
Stress and Medical Care Utilization
Previous research has demonstrated a relationship between stress and the inclination to seek medical advice. The present study tested the hypothesis that clients who utilize the medical facility for the first-time will exhibit higher stress levels than those who are frequent or nonusers. Spielberger's State-Trait Anxiety Inventory measured stress in anxiety scores among 183 clients who attended a health screening service. Findings indicated that …
Relationship of State and Trait Anxiety to Blood Pressure of Black Women
The relationship of anxiety to blood pressure was investigated for 71 black mothers (15 to 60 yr. old) who were patients at a public health clinic. Scores on the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory did not correlate significantly with blood pressures but reported anxiety was affected by type of household and occupational status. Unemployed mothers were more anxious than working mothers, and married mothers reported less anxiety than single ones. The hi…
