Medical Anthropolgy and African Americans,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Medical Anthropology and African American Health (Kindle Edition)
This is one of the worst text books I have ever attempted to read. The multiple studies are based on essentially quantitative research and are extremely poor examples. Broad based conclusions are based on small samples, 25 to 38,studing multiple independent variables. Very judgimental conclusions about African-Americans are based on these small samples. One of my own research projects on post renal transplant compliance had a sample of 1500 from 55 centers and at this sample size major changes occurred. Gender and ethnicity (racial group) fell out. People became people and all did basically the same health behaviors. I would recommend this book to no one. Bonnie Siegal, PhD--Social Science Reseacher with 30 years experience in health care
