Adapting rapid ethnographic research in an evolving emergency
To ensure the real-world utility of emergency ethnographic research, plans must evolve as circumstances shift. The CommuniVax coalition's work provides a case study of this scenario. Using rapid ethnographic interviews, focus groups, and other methods, the six local CommuniVax teams sought to comprehend and improve COVID-19 vaccine access and uptake. To this end, they responded nimbly to varying community priorities, the pandemic's shifting natur…
Use what you have
In mid-2021, the CommuniVax Alabama team broadened their community engagement by partnering with the Chamber of Commerce, the Alabama Department of Public Health, and others to bring vaccines to the workplace. Through this collaboration, the team hoped to fortify the state's persistently anemic rate of vaccination. The goals of increasing access to, and convenience of COVID-19 vaccination were only partially achieved due to human resource and pol…
Practices of disciplinary symbiosis
BACKGROUND: If you are dually trained in anthropology and public health and your goal is an academic career, in what academic unit should you make your professional home? Should you be a public health-trained academic anthropologist or an anthropologist in a public health school or program? AIMS: Associate Professor of Public Health Anne Sebert Kuhlmann and Assistant Professor of Anthropology Stephanie McClure see their dual training as essential…
The Role of Social Issues on Food Procurement among Corner Store Owners and Shoppers
Social issues such as housing quality, corner store owner sense of community, and acculturation should be addressed when considering food environment in limited resource communities
Living Unembodiment
Social conditions shape health and health disparities. However, inquiry and intervention in the social determinants of health all too often rests on thin engagement with customary demographic correlates and predictors rather than robust, empirically and theoretically informed engagement with health and health disparity as biocultural phenomena-the integrated product of structure, materiality, and subjectivity. Within-group variability is neglecte…
Variability in Weight Concern and Physical Activity Engagement Among African American Adolescent Girls
On body economics and fitting in
Introduction : Jamaican culture is considered 'fat-loving,' and thus less likely to foster obesity stigma. However, the importance of tourism to Jamaica's economy, global trends toward a thinness aesthetic and extant ethos' of both bodily self-acceptance and status-based bodily critique suggest that obesity stigma may exist in Jamaica - particularly in the context of class status aspiration. Objective : This pilot study examined the relationship …
Adolescent self-defined neighborhoods and activity spaces
Lessons Learned From a Decade of Focused Recruitment and Training to Develop Minority Public Health Professionals
From 1999 to 2009, the Eliminating Health Disparities Pre-doctoral Fellowship Program provided specialized education and mentoring to African American graduate students in public health. Fellows received a public health degree, coursework in understanding and eliminating health disparities, experiential learning, mentored research, and professional network building with African American role models. We describe successful strategies for recruitin…
Changing the conversation about prostate cancer among African Americans
The findings suggest that most potent interventions may combine survivor-led education with mass media and institution-based outreach. Such comprehensive programs could shift social norms that inhibit conversation and foster fear, leading in turn to more informed decisions and better treatment outcomes
White Matters
The author reflects on the qualitative research process as both a first-time researcher and as a white woman doing research on African American men. This includes reflections on the assumption that the primary motivation for the researcher is romantically motivated, a discussion of racist sexism, and the nature of qualitative evidence, in particular that collected in a cross-race researcher-participant relationship. The research process and exper…
Improvising masculinity
Voluntary Association Membership
This project explores the meaning of membership for members of a Black Greek organization (BGO) and uncovers how the members utilize the fraternity to create various connections. It incorporates underutilized research on voluntary associations and draws attention to a necessary distinction between membership in a BGO and membership in a traditionally White Greek organization
Perceptions of the Religion-Health Connection Among African American Church Members
In this qualitative study, the authors examine perceptions of the religiosity-health connection among African American church members. They conducted 33 interviews with members of predominately African American churches. The clergy and members from each congregation completed semistructured interviews. Participants described the religiosity-health connection in their own words and talked about whether and how their religious beliefs and practices…
The Role of Culture in Health Communication
This paper examines the role of culture as a factor in enhancing the effectiveness of health communication. We describe culture and how it may be applied in audience segmentation and introduce a model of health communication planning—McGuire's communication/persuasion model—as a framework for considering the ways in which culture may influence health communication effectiveness. For three components of the model (source, message, and channel fact…
