In addition, the quality and effectiveness of many of our treatments, and health promotion and disease prevention efforts, have been significantly enhanced by the contributions of health psychologists (Taylor, 1995). Unfortunately, however, much of the theo rizing in health psychology and the empirical research that derives from it continue to reflect the mainstream bias of psychology and medicine, both of which have a primary focus on white, heterosexual, middle-class American men. This bias pervades our thinking despite the demographic heterogeneity of American society (U. S. Bureau of the Census, 1992) and the substantial body of epidemiologic evidence that indicates significant group differences in health status, burden of morbidity and mortality, life expectancy, quality of life, and the risk and protective factors that con tribute to these differences in health outcomes (National Center for Health Statistics, 1994; Myers, Kagawa-Sing | 出版日期 | Book 1996 | 关键词 | Depression; Gender; Radiologieinformationssystem; health psychology; methodology; psychology | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/b102299 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4757-8564-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-0-585-27572-7 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1996 |
