Journal ArticleDOI
Social class, race/ethnicity, and incidence of breast, cervix, colon, lung, and prostate cancer among Asian, Black, Hispanic, and White residents of the San Francisco Bay Area, 1988-92 (United States).

TL;DR: Analysis of cancer incidence among four mutually exclusive US racial/ethnic groups for five major cancer sites illustrates why US cancer data should be stratified by socioeconomic position, along with race/ethnicity and gender, so as to improve cancer surveillance, research, and control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
The multigroup ethnic identity measure-revised: measurement invariance across racial and ethnic groups.
Susan D. Brown,Kirsten A. Unger Hu,Ashley A. Mevi,Monique M. Hedderson,Jun Shan,Charles P. Quesenberry,Assiamira Ferrara +6 more
TL;DR: Pending replication, good psychometric properties in this large and diverse sample of women support the future use of the Multigroup Ethnic Identity Measure-Revised, and preliminary evidence of measurement invariance suggests that the MEIM-R could be used to measure and compare ethnic identity across multiple racial and ethnic groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Stanford Leisure-Time Activity Categorical Item (L-Cat): a single categorical item sensitive to physical activity changes in overweight/obese women.
Michaela Kiernan,Danielle E. Schoffman,Danielle E. Schoffman,Katherine Lee,Katherine Lee,Susan D. Brown,Susan D. Brown,Joan M. Fair,Michael G. Perri,William L. Haskell +9 more
TL;DR: Given strong psychometrics, the Stanford Leisure-Time Activity Categorical Item has timely potential for clinical use such as tracking activity changes via electronic medical records, especially among overweight/obese populations who are unable or unlikely to reach national recommendations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minority recruitment into clinical trials: experimental findings and practical implications.
Susan D. Brown,Katherine Lee,Danielle E. Schoffman,Abby C. King,La Vera M. Crawley,Michaela Kiernan +5 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that a simple modification to a standard recruitment letter can have a meaningful impact on minority reach and recruitment rates, and practical implications include using ethnically-targeted, non-personalized direct mail letters and recruiting through friends/family at no additional cost.
