Reflecting on the complexity of pursing medicine as under‐represented minorities, the authors point to ways in which graduate programs can be expanded by widening policy definitions and targets
Two (Missing) Left Feet
Understanding pre-Hispanic Andean medical practices through skeletal evidence of surgery has been the focus of a number of bioarchaeological investigations in recent years. Amputation is an especially interesting topic of research due to the variety of social contexts in which it might have occurred. Interpretations for amputation found on the north coast of Peru have included therapeutic intervention, punitive measures, and ritualistic dismember…
An electrophysiological investigation of attentional bias in a PTSD population
The present study provided no support for facilitated engagement in this sample of patients. Possible interpretations of the results related to differential processing of target probes replacing angry-neutral face pairs are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record
Abandoning the language of “response shift”
Measuring Numeracy without a Math Test
Background. Basic numeracy skills are necessary before patients can understand the risks of medical treatments. Previous research has used objective measures, similar to mathematics tests, to evaluate numeracy. Objectives. To design a subjective measure (i.e., self-assessment) of quantitative ability that distinguishes low- and high-numerate individuals yet is less aversive, quicker to administer, and more useable for telephone and Internet surve…
Sensitivity to disgust, stigma, and adjustment to life with a colostomy
The confounded nature of angry men and happy women
Findings of 7 studies suggested that decisions about the sex of a face and the emotional expressions of anger or happiness are not independent: Participants were faster and more accurate at detecting angry expressions on male faces and at detecting happy expressions on female faces. These findings were robust across different stimulus sets and judgment tasks and indicated bottom-up perceptual processes rather than just top-down conceptually drive…

What Is Perfect Health to an 85-Year-Old
BACKGROUND: If an 85-year-old man rates his health as 90 on a scale in which 100 represents "perfect health," would his rating mean the same thing as a 90 rating from a 25-year-old? We conducted a randomized trial of 3 different ways of eliciting subjective health ratings from participants in the Health and Retirement Study to test whether the meaning of perfect health changes as people age, causing people to recalibrate their self-reported healt…
Building a Better Quality Measure
BACKGROUND: National performance measures monitor the proportion of diabetic patients with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels >/=130 mg/dL, but such simple intermediate outcomes measure poor control, not necessarily poor care. "Tightly linked" quality measures define good quality either by a good intermediate outcome (LDL /=130 mg/dL using the simple intermediate outcome measure, only 13% (148 of 1154) were classified as having substandard qual…
Racial Disparities in Diabetes Care Processes, Outcomes, and Treatment Intensity
BACKGROUND: Black Americans with diabetes have a higher burden of illness and mortality than do white Americans. However, the extent to which differences in medical care processes and treatment intensity contribute to poorer diabetes outcomes is unknown. OBJECTIVE: To assess racial disparities in the quality of diabetes care processes, intermediate outcomes, and treatment intensity. METHODS: We conducted an observational study of 801 white and 11…
Target complicity in the confirmation and disconfirmation of erroneous perceiver expectations
The authors explored the role of target self-presentational goals in the expectation confirmation process within the context of simulated employment interviews. As predicted, applicants encouraged to be deferential inadvertently succumbed to their interviewers' expectation; applicants encouraged to be challenging, to advance their own agenda, did not. The challenging-motivated applicants succeeded in disconfirming negative expectations by present…
When We Observe Stigmatized and "Normal" Individuals Interacting
The stigmatization process might differ as a function of whether "marked" individuals are viewed within a context of other marked individuals or in the context of positively viewed "normals. "Several alternative impression outcomes seem plausible the destigmatization by association of marked individuals, the stigmatization by association of normal individuals, a contrast effect, or no influence of context. Two experiments produced evidence only f…
