Although I had received my academic doctoral training at an applied medical anthropology program (Wayne State University, Detroit, MI) in the 1980s and a few years later completed a postdoctoral fellowship program which ea…
The New Face of America
This unique and important book investigates what it means to be multiracial and/or multiethnic in the United States, examining the issues involved from personal, societal, and cultural perspectives.

This approach places culture and cultural relativism at the forefront and center of every model, and examines the ethics and fairness of health care issues ass…

When working with other health care professionals, medical anthropologists are commonly asked to explain what their field is, what they do, and how they can assist clinicians and public health officials in appropriating better health care for their patients/clients. Many assume that medical anthropologists are always on excavations like archaeologists o…

Stress and Medical Care Utilization
Previous research has demonstrated a relationship between stress and the inclination to seek medical advice. The present study tested the hypothesis that clients who utilize the medical facility for the first-time will exhibit higher stress levels than those who are frequent or nonusers. Spielberger's State-Trait Anxiety Inventory measured stress in anxiety scores among 183 clients who attended a health screening service. Findings indicated that …
Relationship of State and Trait Anxiety to Blood Pressure of Black Women
The relationship of anxiety to blood pressure was investigated for 71 black mothers (15 to 60 yr. old) who were patients at a public health clinic. Scores on the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory did not correlate significantly with blood pressures but reported anxiety was affected by type of household and occupational status. Unemployed mothers were more anxious than working mothers, and married mothers reported less anxiety than single ones. The hi…
