However, some simulated diagnostic devices are price prohibitive or yet to be developed. This article explores a collaborative effort between health academics and engineering interns to develop cost-effective, authentic devices that overcome limitations of those currently av…

Feeling Crazy: Self-Worth and the Social Character of Responsibility
The notion of responsibility has figured prominently in feminist theorizing. Feminists have explored ways in which received conditions of blameworthiness and excuse mask and thereby sustain social arrangements that oppress women. Men who reap advantages from such arrangements are commonly in a position to justify their conduct by appealing to gendered social norms that grant men special prerogatives (“Lighten up! Surely there is nothing wrong in …

Feminist Second Thoughts About Free Agency
This essay suggests that common themes in recent feminist ethical thought can dislodge the guiding assumptions of traditional theories of free agency and thereby foster an account of freedom which might be more fruitful for feminist discussion of moral and political agency. The essay proposes constructing that account around a condition ofnormative‐competence. It argues that this view permits insight into why women's labor of reclaiming and augme…

III Health and Use of Medical Care; Community-Based Assessment of Morbidity in Children
The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between morbidity and ambulatory care utilization in a randomly selected sample of children with stable patterns of use of services in a prepaid multispecialty group practice. The unique features of the approach were a focus on long-term relationships (over 8 years) and on assessment of health status by a combination of parent reports, child reports, teacher reports, and physical examinatio…
Labeling Theory and Community Care of the Mentally Ill in California: The Relationship of Social Theory and Ideology to Public Policy
The practical merit of a labeling theory approach to mental illness is examined and assessed through an exploration of its application in terms of public policy, i.e., community mental health policy in the state of California since 1968. Primary focus is placed on the impact of the deinstitutionalization of mental health services in that state, and the release of former mental patients into the community. Similarities in the fundamental ideologic…
