Fast Paper Details & Research Worksheet
Fast Paper:
You should conduct a search – primarily and preferably using the APSU Library Databases. Your goal is to find articles related to a particular social condition (SES – Education or Income, Discrimination, Working/Labor conditions) that results in a particular health outcome (heart disease, diabetes, mental health, cancer, poor birth outcomes) for a specific/special population (low income, racial/ethnic minority, LGBTQ, gender, disability, age). You are not to report on a particular health outcome – i.e I do not want a paper about diabetes. Instead you should report on what one peer reviewed article had to say about the connection between the social condition and a health outcome for a population. Health & Medical Homework Help.
