Advancement of health disparities research: a conceptual approach

Bobbie Berkowitz et al. Nurs Outlook. 2005 May-Jun.

Abstract

Although nurse researchers have contributed in significant ways to the body of literature on health disparities, a broad framework and approach to health disparities is needed if we are to understand the complex interplay of variables that contribute to health disparities. This article reports on the work of the Center for the Advancement of Health Disparities Research and its development of a conceptual framework and method for approaching health disparities research and on a sample of nursing research consistent with this framework.
