Exploring the Acceptability and Feasibility of a Self-directed Approach to Identifying Health Priorities in a Sample of Southern Older African American Adults with Multiple Chronic Conditions
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the cultural acceptability and feasibility of the self-directed "My Health Priorities" (MHP) web-based program in older Southern African Americans (AAs) with multiple chronic conditions (MCCs) and their family caregivers (FCGs). DESIGN: A multi-method formative evaluation study (NIH Stage 1a) to explore patients' and FCGs' experiences with the MHP web-based program, a component of the patient priorities care approach. Inte…
Overcoming Research Mistrust in African American Communities by Engaging Community Members as Research Team Members
Objectives: We aimed to understand factors surrounding COVID-19 testing in vulnerable urban and rural African American communities in Alabama, which are characterized by mistrust in medical research. Methods: To address widespread mistrust, we trained lay community members as research coordinators (Community Engagement Coordinators-CECs) and employed them for study recruitment and data collection. We then explored their experiences through group …
Adaption and validation of scales to measure Covid-19 stigma attitudes and perceptions
Stark racial and socioeconomic disparities in COVID-19 case rates manifested across the U.S. during the COVID-19 pandemic and were also observed in rates of COVID-19 testing. Targeted testing of populations at greatest risk for COVID-19, while effective in containing the spread of COVID-19, could propagate stigma and discrimination, especially when directed toward already marginalized communities. As is known from other health areas, stigmatizati…
Vicarious Discrimination Through Spouses and Mental Health Among Middle-Aged Black Adults
Exploring Spiritual Concerns, Needs, and Resources in Outpatient Healthcare Facilities Serving Under-Resourced Black Patients
Background Acknowledging patients' spiritual concerns can enhance well-being and is essential to patient-centered chronic illness care. However, unmet spiritual care needs remain a major area of suffering, particularly among under-resourced populations. Limited research exists on how spiritual concerns are acknowledged and integrated into the care of chronically ill older Black patients in these settings. Purpose This study aimed to explore the s…
A Qualitative Study of Motivations for Minority Recruitment in Cancer Clinical Trials Across Five NCI-Designated Cancer Centers
The impact of the combination of income and education on the incidence of coronary heart disease in the prospective Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) cohort study
For younger individuals, low income, regardless of education, was associated with higher risk of CHD, but not observed for ≥ 65 years. Findings suggest that for younger participants, education attainment may not overcome the disadvantage conferred by low income in terms of CHD risk, whereas among those ≥ 65 years, the independent effects of income and education are less pronounced
