  • Artificial Intelligence Meets Holistic Review

    Open AccessJacob T Rosenthal, Frederic W Hafferty et al.ARTICLEAcademic Medicine2025

    Holistic review has been widely adopted in medical education as a means of promoting equity in the application process and diversity in the medical workforce. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly emerging technology already having an impact on the medical school and residency application process as students and faculty alike increasingly turn to AI tools to automate some steps in the preparation and evaluation of application materials. While…

  • Imagining Ourselves into the Lives of People Living with Dementia

    Open AccessNancy Berlinger, J S Taylor et al.ARTICLEThe Hastings Center Report2025

    Aging societies frequently fail to imagine their own collective needs, including the care needs of people with dementia and who will be expected to meet these needs. This essay considers how to build a practice of moral imagination—a capacity to think about current and future challenges in ways that aim at better lives and greater justice—into rethinking familiar cultural narratives about dementia that fail to improve the lives of people with dem…

  • The nearness of the state

    Open AccessJ S Taylor, Elizabeth K VigARTICLEBioSocieties2025

    This essay examines two stories emerging from two different research projects, both based in Seattle, Washington (U.S.): one woman's story of her efforts to implement her husband's wishes following a stroke, and another woman's story of a failed suicide attempt by her dear friend who had been diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease. We first consider these stories in relation to the concept of substituted judgment implicit in the influenti…

  • The clock-drawing test

    Open AccessJ S TaylorARTICLEJournal of the Royal Anthropologica…2025Citada por: 1Referências: 56

    The clock-drawing test, a cognitive screening test widely used clinically, is here taken as a window onto forms of temporality present in clinical encounters involving dementia. Drawing on close reading of clinical notes from their medical records, I offer imagistic silhouettes of three older adults in the Seattle area who had no living spouse or children when they developed dementia. Attending to temporality in these records brings clinical inte…

  • Kinless Older Adults With Dementia

    Open AccessJ S Taylor, Marlaine Figueroa Gray et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2023Citada por: 2Referências: 8

    Our qualitative analysis reveals that the life trajectories that led members of the analytic cohort to be kinless at dementia onset were quite varied. This research highlights the importance of nonfamily caregivers and participants' own roles as caregivers. Our findings suggest that clinicians and health systems may need to work with other parties to directly provide dementia caregiving support rather than rely on family, and address factors such…

  • What the word 'partnership' conjoins, and what it does

    Open AccessJ S TaylorARTICLEMedicine Anthropology Theory2018Citada por: 4

    This essay proposes that 'global health partnership' might usefully be conceived as a boundary object, in that the term's capacity to encompass widely divergent and incompatible understandings, and to facilitate mutual misunderstandings, is a crucial part of how it 'works' in the world to help bring together assemblages of people and organizations across great distances and steep gradients of inequality

  • The Demise of the Bumbler and the Crock

    Open AccessJ S TaylorARTICLEAmerican Anthropologist2014Citada por: 7Referências: 30

    In this article, I consider Howard Becker's 1955 research among medical students in relation to my own late-2000s research on standardized patients, or SPs (i.e., people hired to portray patients in staged clinical encounters with medical students). Becker's mid-20th-century subjects used the term crock for patients who presented obstacles to their acquisition of valued kinds of clinical "experience." SP simulations, as one among many forms of si…

  • "Introduction to "In Focus

    Open AccessIlana Gershon, J S TaylorARTICLEAmerican Anthropologist2008Citada por: 13Referências: 21

    In this "In Focus," authors address how culture is figured in institutional contexts that are putatively arenas of no culture. Participants in these institutions pay ever more attention to questions of "culture" but often deploy the term in ways that presume that only select outsiders are culture bearers. Contributors to this volume seek to highlight the intricate ways in which the "cultural" and "acultural" are mutually constituted in such insti…

  • On Recognition, Caring, and Dementia

    Open AccessJ S TaylorARTICLEMedical Anthropology Quarterly2008Citada por: 108Referências: 12

    The onset of dementia raises troubling questions. Does the person with dementia still recognize you? If someone cannot recognize you, can they still care about you? This essay takes such questions as the entry point for a broader inquiry into recognition, its linkages to care, and how claims to social and political "recognition" are linked to, or premised on, the demonstrated capacity to "recognize" people and things. In the words and actions of …
