Sociocultural bias on the SCAN-C (R. W. Keith, 2000) was investigated with 20 Anglo American and 20 Latino American 8-year-old children from low- and mid-high-socioeconomic status (SES) backgrounds. Univariate and repeated measures analyses of variance (ANOVAs) failed to reveal any significant differences between the groups when clustered by ethnicity and SES. The Latino American participants' scores were analyzed for dialectal variations, and the ANOVA analyses were repeated using the corrected scores. No significant interactions were observed.

Abstract:
Background Latinos in the USA have reported more frequent discriminatory treatment in healthcare settings when compared to their White counterparts. In particular, foreign-born Latinos report discrimination more than Latinos born in the USA. Such patient-reported racial/ethnic discrimination appears to contribute to specific health consequences, including treatment seeking delays, interruptions in care, and medical mistrust. Immigrant Latino adolescents in the USA experience a variety of health disparities, yet little is known about their views of the healthcare experience, their perceptions o

With respect to African Americans, the history of racial discrimination in the imposition of the death penalty is well-known, and the persistence of racial disparities in the modern era of capital punishment is well-documented.

A review of the limited literature reveals evidence of discrimination against Latinos.

Abstract Firearm-related violence is a significant threat to public health and safety in America. However, research highlights a critical disparity in firearm-related deaths by race.

Abstract:
Abstract Studies comparing racial/ethnic differences on psychological and physical outcomes of dementia caregivers have often reported differences in well-being for minority groups compared to Whites. However, due to issues with enrolling minorities into studies, recruitment methods often differ for minority and White participants and may lead to biased comparisons. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine racial/ethnic differences in dementia caregiver outcomes and to determine whether any differences vary among studies with population-based samples compared to convenienc

Abstract:
IntroductionGlobally, acute generalised peritonitis (AGP) is a common medical and surgical emergency which is a major contributor to non-trauma deaths despite improvements in diagnosis and surgical and intensive care management. In order to determine the global burden of AGP, geared at tailoring key interventions to curb its morbidity and mortality, we proposed this first ever systematic review and meta-analysis to estimate the contemporary prevalence, and to determine the most frequent AGP and the case fatality rate of AGP, at the global scene.Methods and analysisWe intend to searchAfricanJou

Abstract:
This study examined correlates of degree attainment in high school dropouts. Participants were high school dropouts of Mexican American or non-Latino white descent who had no degree, a high school degree, or a GED certificate. This study was unique in that it accounted for sample bias of missing data through the use of multiple imputation, it considered students who had dropped out as early as 7th grade, and it was able to include variables found significant in previous research on returning dropouts. Logistic regression analyses identified a parsimonious set of factors which distinguished dro

Abstract Background: There has been renewed interest in understanding how medical research serves minority communities disproportionally affected by disease. A recent study in a predominantly white population identified 12 subjects with partial lipodystrophy by genetics without clinical diagnosis of lipodystrophy (Gonzaga-Jauregui et al., 2020). Partial lipodystrophies are rare monogenic disorders leading to diabetes that can be challenging to diagnosis due to their similarity with common obesity-associated metabolic syndrome.

Abstract:
This article contributes to the discussion of internationalisation in higher education in the context of the international relations (IR) subfield of political science. The field of IR might seem by definition to be ‘internationalised’, but the underlying theoretical assumptions of the field, its social science rationalism and privileging of the unitary nation-state exhibit an American or Eurocentric bias. This Western bias with its emphasis on security issues is then replicated in research agendas and reproduced in higher education classrooms across the United States and beyond. I argue that
