Medical Practitioners' Death Anxiety And The Advance Directive, Daisy Macias, Natalie Macias
Theses Digitization Project
This study examined whether there is a correlation between medical practitioner's level of death anxiety and communication about the advance directive. Even though there is a lot of common sense in stating the obvious complexity of issues surrounding end of life, there is also a clear discomfort with accepting the advance directive and the patient's wishes at face value and the underlying reasons for that may lie in the physician's own feelings over death.

Health Disparities: A Look At Colorectal Cancer Screening In The Minority Community, Patrina Louise Archie
Health Disparities: A Look At Colorectal Cancer Screening In The Minority Community, Patrina Louise Archie
Theses Digitization Project
The purpose of this study was to examine a physician's recommendation for ColoRectal Cancer screenings among Caucasians and minorities (African American, Asian American, and Latino). Past research on CRC has suggested that a history of CRC in a first degree relative elevates a person's lifetime risk. Furthermore, without a physician recommendation for early screening, the patient's chances of early detection are substantially lowered. This is why it is imperative to examine the complex factors that contribute to minorities who have lower CRC screening rates compared to Caucasians.
