There remain multiple challenges to implementation of this training, including curricular constraints, varying interpretations of cultural competence, and evidence supporting the efficacy of such training. This study explored how medical schools have worked to implement cultural competence traini…

A 40-Year History of the Association of Black Psychologists (ABPsi)
of Black Psychologists [ABPsi] would survive for 40 years? ” I responded to Dr. Parham’s inquiry by essentially saying, “Yes, Tom. We African Americans are a strong, resilient people. We survived slavery, racism, dis-crimination, and segregation. Certainly we could survive as an organization that was doing the right thing for our people. ” With that thought in mind, I began to think over the formation, development, and progress of the ABPsi over …
Militarism and sociopolitical perspectives among college students in the U.S. and South Korea
Students in a U.S. university (n = 187) and a South Korean university (n = 201) responded to a sociopolitical questionnaire that included measures of militarism, nationalism, internationalism, patriotism, respect for civil liberties, and tolerance of dissent. Most correlations between militarism and the comparison sociopolitical variables proved significant in both samples but tended to be stronger in the U.S. sample. Militarism correlated positi…

OBJECTIVE: To determine if disparities exist in preventive service delivery to non-Hispanic white patients and black patients in primary care. RESEARCH DESIGN: Multimethod study using direct observation of patient encoun…
The Ebonics Controversy
The term Ebonics, coined by the author in 1973 at a conference on the language of Black children, was formed by combining ebony (black) and phonics (speech sounds). Two schools of thought on the origin of Ebonics are presented: (a) pidgin/Creole and (b) African retention. What sparked the national controversy on Ebonics was the Oakland school board's decision to recognize Ebonics as a legitimate language. The school board's primary goal is to dis…

The War Against Testing
In recent years, the validity of certain types of standardized tests in assessing minority children has been severely criticized. Entire issues of a number of periodicals have already been devoted to the topic of test abuses and misuses.2 CBS Television produced a critical one-hour documentary on the IQ Myth in April, 1975. Additional evidence of growing opposition to educational testing abounds in public speeches, legislative hearings, court cas…

On Black Intelligence
If a tree is to be judged by its fruit, if the intelligence of a race bears any relation to its accomplishment, it seems difficult to draw any conclusion other than that the Black and Brown races are inferior to the white race [R. S. Ellis, 1928: 284]

The purpose of the present study was to assess the relationship berween frequency of church attendance, perhaps the most commonly used social index of religious fervor, and ocher dimensions of religiosity in late adolescence. Since the spiritual efficacy of religious ritual might be assessed empirically via some measure of humane-benevolent deeds, the relation of frequency of church atrendance and magnitude of altruistic-humane activity was empha…

The bases for selection and retention of teachers in Mississippi
Students of the history of American education are aware of the fact that the dame of the colonial dame school, an ancestor of our present day school systems, was frequently selected on a variety of factors, one of which might have been her knowledge of subject matter and methodology of teaching. In many cases, however, it seems that the primary point of consideration in selecting the dame was the fact that she had no other way of making a living …

Present practices in administering quality points in 172 American colleges and universities
Introduction.-Without attempting to go into an extensive history of the development of the practice of requiring quality points for graduation in American colleges and universities, it might be said that, at the present time, they are generally considered an instrument for measuring, in a general way, the quality of all work done by the student in his collegiate career. This recognition of quality of work done seems to be based on the assumption …

Body Image and Physiological Patterns in Patients with Peptic Ulcer and Rheumatoid Arthritis
Cross-validation of Fisher and Cleveland's body-image scoring schema was achieved and its theoretical importance was extended to include physiological activity. As predicted, peptic ulcer patients had higher heart rates than rheumatoid arthritic patients under all experimental conditions. No significant differences between these groups were found for GSR or EMG activity. In comparing these groups on the basis of difference scores between experime…

Contributing Factors to School Departures in Georgia
The major contributing factors to school dropouts among both Caucasians and Negroes were employment, lack of interest in school, and marriage. Though the mean IQs of the dropouts were comparable to the mean ability levels for their respective schools, the Caucasian Ss were more than a year retarded in grade placement and achievement
