New study examines disadvantaged people and medical care
From EurekAlert! - Breaking News:
A new pilot study out of the University of Cincinnati takes a new look at how patients deal with disparities in patient medical care – disparities that have been documented in hundreds of studies in the past. This poll of approximately 1,000 people in Greater Cincinnati found that the more disadvantaged the patient felt in terms of race, gender or socioeconomic background, the more likely he or she worked on presenting a positive self image while seeking medical care.
The findings of new research was presented Aug. 15 at the meeting of the American Sociological Association in Philadelphia. Read more from this post.
