- U.S. media has extensively covered racial disparities in COVID-19 infections and deaths, which may ironically reduce public concern about COVID-19. In two preregistered studies (conducted in the fall of 2020), we examined whether perceptions of COVID-19 racial disparities predict White U.S. residents’ attitudes toward COVID-19. Utilizing a correlational design (N = 498), we found that those who…March 2022COVID-19/Coronavirus, Racism

- In this research note, I estimate one component of the mortality impact of denying all wanted induced abortions in the United States. This estimate quantifies the magnitude of an increase in pregnancy-related deaths that would occur solely because of the greater mortality risk of continuing a pregnancy rather than having a legal induced abortion. Using published statistics on pregnancy-related…December 2021Maternal Morbidity and Mortality, Abortion Access

Today, there is more recognition than ever of the influence of structural forces on maternal and infant health and a…December 2021COVID-19/Coronavirus, Maternal Morbidity and Mortality, Advocacy
