Development and Feasibility of a Conversation Tool to Garner Mental Health and Intimate Partner Violence History from Patients Seeking Pelvic Healthcare
A conversation tool was developed by a clinician/researcher partnership to garner mental health and intimate partner violence histories from patients seeking pelvic healthcare. A 3-stage mixed measures approach with healthcare providers ( n = 22) and victim service experts ( n = 8) was utilized to meet study aims. The finalized conversation tool was found to have satisfactory face and content validity as well as to be feasible to implement in cli…
Health system redesign for maternal and newborn survival
Large disparities in maternal and neonatal mortality exist between low- and high-income countries. Mothers and babies continue to die at high rates in many countries despite substantial increases in facility birth. One reason for this may be the current design of health systems in most low-income countries where, unlike in high-income countries, a substantial proportion of births occur in primary care facilities that cannot offer definitive care …
Intake of specific flavonoids and risk of acute myocardial infarction in Italy

The Joint Impact of Race and Gender on Police Department Employment Practices
In this study of police departments in southern California we examine the joint effects of race and gender on hiring practices. Although we find some similarities between the employment patterns of African-American and Hispanic officers, our most noteworthy findings involve the sharp differences between the factors which affect the hiring of different groups of individuals for sworn officer positions. The research presented here also improves on …
Traumatic child death and documented maltreatment history, Los Angeles
OBJECTIVES. Child abuse is a presumed but largely untested risk factor for child homicide. This research investigated the social and child protective service history of child homicide victims. METHODS. A pairwise matched case-control design was used to assess documented child maltreatment as a risk factor for homicide vs unintentional injury death. Homicide victims aged 0 to 14 years were identified through Los Angeles Police Department case summ…
Attorney Persuasion in the Capital Penalty Phase
Transcribed sentencing phase summations were content analyzed and comparisons were made between prosecution and defense arguments. Arguments were coded to discover the themes emphasized by attorneys in arguing for life imprisonment or the death penalty. Prosecutors portrayed the defendant as a cold, remorseless killer, emphasized the brutal nature of the murder, the suffering experienced by victims, and the moral legitimacy of revenge. Defenders …
Race/ethnicity patterns in the homicide of children in Los Angeles, 1980 through 1989
This study investigated age, sex, and race/ethnicity risk patterns for homicide based on 246 children (newborn to 14 years old) who were murdered in the city of Los Angeles 1980 through 1989. Rates of homicide are higher for newborn to 4-year-olds than for 5- to 14-year-olds. Boys and girls have similar rates of homicide at young ages; among 5- to 14-year-olds, however, boys have higher rates. Characteristics of the victim, suspect, and event wer…
