SOLICITATION OF MANUSCRIPTS FOR HSR SPECIAL ISSUE ON:
SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH
Website: http://www.academyhealth.org/publications/hsr.htm
".....With the support of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Health
Services Research (HSR) is planning a special issue focusing on the
social determinants of health, to provide a forum for presenting the
latest research and policy analysis to a broad audience of researchers,
practitioners, and policymakers. There is ample evidence that most
health policymakers, both at state and federal levels, do not understand
how policy relating to nonmedical determinants of health can be
incorporated into health policy. Conversely, policymakers in such fields
as education, transportation, or housing rarely see that there are major
health implications to the choices that they make. Education is needed
in both directions.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to social inequalities in
health by socioeconomic position, race/ethnicity, gender, etc.; the role
of a broad range of psychosocial factors in health at the level of
individuals, neighborhoods, and communities, and broader sociopolitical
units; the interconnections and interactions between and among social
and biological-chemical-physical determinants of health; and
implications of social determinants of health for health care or health
services research, practice, and policy.
Jim House, Nicole Lurie, and Catherine McLaughlin will serve as
co-editors of the special HSR issue.
September 1, 2002 is the deadline for submission. The planned
publication date is July 2003...."
