  • Race Is More Than Just Skin Deep: a Psychologist's View Rushton, J Philippe Mankind Quarterly; Winter 1998; 39, 2; Proquest Research Library Pg
    Race is more than just skin deep: A psychologist's view Rushton, J Philippe Mankind Quarterly; Winter 1998; 39, 2; ProQuest Research Library pg. 231 231 Race is More Than Just Skin Deep: A Psychologist's View J. Philippe Rushton1 University of Western Ontario This article defends the concept of "race" against a coordinated political campaign to deconstruct basic biology. It briefly reviews some of the most reliably documented Black-White differences, such as those in brain size, IQ, violent crime, testosterone, sexuality and AIDs. Although these racial differences are now reliably found worldwide (not just within the USA), many in the media and scholarly associations continue to try and deny them or attribute them to "political circumstance." "Statements on Race" made by organizations such as the American Association for Anthropology are discussed and found to be wanting. Key Words: AAA Statement on Race, brain size, crime, evolution, intelligence. I originally wrote this paper in reaction to a Knight-Ridder article ("Genetic Basis For Race Said To Be Just Skin Deep," October 13, 1996), which argued that race has no validity as a biological concept when applied to man, seeking to defend the concept of "race" against a coordinated political campaign to deconstruct basic biology. Since then numerous other media stories have appeared purporting to debunk the reality of race, some playing off policy statements by scholarly organizations such as the one adopted by the American Association of Anthropology on May 17, 1998. Worse, governments have become actively involved in propagating the misinformation. I originally wrote this paper in reaction to a Knight-Ridder article ("Genetic Basis For Race Said To Be Just Skin Deep," 1 J.

  • Psychologists As Change Agents in Chronic Pain Management Practice: Cultural Competence in the Health Care System
    Psychological Services In the public domain 2010, Vol. 7, No. 3, 115–125 DOI: 10.1037/a0019642 Psychologists as Change Agents in Chronic Pain Management Practice: Cultural Competence in the Health Care System Karl D. Frohm Gregory P. Beehler VA Western New York Healthcare System, VA VISN 2 Center for Integrated Healthcare, Buffalo, NY Buffalo, NY Psychologists bring great value to health care systems, but our ethnocentrism regarding the medical community often limits our effectiveness as agents of change. Based on experience in developing pain management services within the Department of Veterans Affairs health care system, we discuss cultural issues as central to effective systems change and provide specific recommendations for psychologists aspiring to change organized health care systems, such as the Department of Veterans Affairs. Consideration is given to the misfit of the biomedical model to chronic pain, “physics envy” affecting the authority accorded psychology, and societal stigmatization of psychopathology. A process-based definition of cultural competence is recommended as improving on psychology’s intrinsic group-based notion of culture in engaging the medical community. The systems thinking literature is sampled in summarizing practical recommendations that include identifying features of local medical culture and power dynamics between psychology and medicine that can be modified by engaging stakeholders in an interpersonally effective manner. Keywords: pain, psychologists, organizational culture, cultural competence Chronic pain is associated with a problematic endeavors of psychologists to transform health set of issues for the health care system and care systems, based closely on our direct experi- society. In particular, best practice standards in ences in pain management within the Department chronic pain management centrally emphasize of Veterans Affairs (VA) health care system.

Copyright © 2002 International Association for Cross-Cultural Psychology. All Rights Reserved. ISBN 978-0-9845627-0-1 Why is There Still Racism if There is No Such Thing as "Race"? Abstract This presidential address is keyed to the exhibition "All of Us Are Related, Each of Us Is Unique." It reveals that there are no biological barriers between the 5.7 billion human beings that today inhabit the earth. We all have the same ancestors and the genetic diversity of contemporary human populations reflects the paths followed by our ancestors in the course of human migrations over the past 100,000 years. I assert that there is simply no such thing as "white people", "black people", "yellow people", or the like, except as social constructs. In a world in which intergroup hostility has long been based on erroneous beliefs in biologically determined characteristics of so-called "races", our habitual way of thinking about how we relate to each other needs seriously to be re-examined.
