个人简介
My research examines the relationship between culture and health. The most recent work emphasizes concepts and methods for examining the health effects of individual efforts to achieve culturally-defined goals and aspirations. With colleagues I have examined these factors in settings as diverse as urban Great Britain, the Southeast U.S., the West Indies, Mexico, and, especially, Brazil. With Brazilian colleagues I have carried out four major, funded projects on health in Brazil over the past 30 years. In this research we have shown that difficulties in achieving the culturally-defined goals in Brazilian society are associated with increased risk of high blood pressure, obesity, depression, and poor immune function.
In addition to teaching in anthropology, I served on the faculties of The University of Alabama School of Medicine-Tuscaloosa and the School of Social Work. I have directed nine doctoral dissertations and served on numerous master’s committees.
