Class, perceptions of 'disordered' behaviour, and suggestions for therapy
This paper presents findings from a tri-cultural study in which we argue that class differences pertain not only to rates of mental illness but also to recognition of symptoms of mental illness and to recommendations concerning what should be done by those exhibiting 'disordered behaviour'. It is hypothesized that regardless of respondent's cultural background, the extent to which a deviant behaviour will be defined as a mental health problem, an…
Class, familism and utilization of health services in Durango, Mexico
Socio‐economic class, classification of ‘abnormal’ behaviour and perceptions of mental health care
This paper is a replication of a study in which we argue that class differences pertain not only to rates of mental illness but also to the recognition of symptoms of mental illness and to recommendations concerning what should be done by those exhibiting ‘disordered behaviour’. Our previous findings from a sample of two small West Texas communities indicated that class differences did hold for both recognition of and recommendations for help reg…
Risk Analysis of the 1970 San Antonio Diphtheria Epidemic
Prediction of disease patterns for communicable diseases with low prevalence rates is difficult because of the random variations inherent in the data Smoothing of prevalence or incidence data prior to the analysis may facilitate these predictions.All of the analyses are based on census tract characterisiics. The disadvantages of this type of data are that the boundaries are arbitraty and lead to some heterogenous tracts. Also, the analyses depend…
Interracial Depressive Epidemiology in the Southwest
This report is a replication of a recent study dealing with interracial depressive symptomatology in the South. The present study analyzes the depression characteristics of Mexican-American and black females living in a Southwestern city (N=514) and essentially validates the earlier findings from the South after a period of rapid social change. When people become aware of better economic opportunities, the young, the old, the underand uneducated,…

Committee members individually, or in two-person groups, studied a number of factors concerning Mexican-American medical care in Texas such as: 1) mortality, morbidity, and other health status indicators; 2) health manpower and educational needs; 3) political f…

Language and communication barriers for health delivery to a minority group
Communication in Medical Therapeutics
Success in medical therapeutics depends heavily upon whether the doctor and patient adequately communicate their expectations of one another. Communication serves as the mechanism for the necessary, constant renegotiation of their interpersonal contract if the therapy is of more than brief duration. This implicit contract is necessary for assuring a sufficiently equitable, gratifying relationship that each will do his part to accomplish therapeut…
