Latinos in the United States

Dealing with Death
This article explores medical students' experiences and coping strategies when confronting patient loss in their 3rd and 4th years of their programs. Much of the literature on the impact of patient losses focuses on physicians. This article joins a handful of works aimed at how medical students experience and cope with patient loss. In-depth interviews with 20 medical students provided rich descriptions of their varying experiences coping with de…

Key components of mismatch, such as human capital attributes and access to automobile commuting, do appear to influence employment likelihoods among native disadvantaged minorities, but have little effect o…
White Racism

It has received relatively little scholarly attention partly because of data deficiencies and partly because of the dominance of black poverty within the agendas of research and policy circles alike. In addition, what little research has been done has all too often treated the hybrid category “H…
