1 1 Epid Social Epidemiology: Design and Interpretation Instructor: Whitney R. Robinson, Ph.D Department of Epidemiology UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health 2104B McGavran-Greenberg Hall campus mail address: Epidemiology, CB#7435 Usual Time and Place: Thursday 2:00 3:50 pm Room: McGG 2302 Course overview: The seminar-style course will identify methodological challenges common in social epidemiology. Next, the course will introduce and critique study designs and analytic techniques commonly used to address these challenges. In addition, this semester will include a special emphasis on deconstructing recent important research, such as documentation of decreasing life expectancy in the U.S., income inequality and declining economic mobility, and modeling racial/ethnic differences (or lack thereof) in police use of force in encounters with civilians. Learning objectives: To identify how the field of epidemiology researches the social determinants of health differently than other disciplines, such as sociology, psychology, or health policy To identify the methodological challenges that are addressed by different study designs and analyses used in social epidemiology To apply methods from the field of social epidemiology to research questions of interest to the student COURSE STRUCTURE: Most sessions will consist of short lectures from respected interdisciplinary researchers, followed by structured discussions of selected scientific publications relevant to the lecture. Readings will be available on Sakai or PubMed. To facilitate high-quality discussions, all assigned readings should be completed prior to class. Come to class ready to evaluate the quality of readings and explain in what situations a technique or concept would apply to research questions of interest to you. Course Requirements & Grading Criteria % of Grade Due Date Class participation 30% Presentation 1: research question & challenge 30% Presentation 2: Two approaches for addressing challenge 40% Course evaluations (online) last 3 weeks of class Students will be provided with at least 15 minutes of class time to complete the evaluation on the last day class is scheduled to meet. Assignment formatting for papers and presentation: Presentation slides should be saved using this standardized file name format: YY_MM_DD_Epid827_last-name_assignment (e.g., 17_03_08_Epid827_Robinson_presentation1.ppt). Submitting assignments:
2 2 * Submit assignments (e.g., presentation slides) electronically via Sakai. Sakai will not accept assignments after the posted deadline. * In fairness to those who meet the deadlines, late assignments may be penalized 10% per day. * If you are unable to submit an assignment by the deadline, please me as soon as possible, preferably at least 36 hours ahead of time. Honor code: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has had a student-administered honor system and judicial system for over 100 years. The system is the responsibility of students and is regulated and governed by them, but faculty share the responsibility. If you have questions about your responsibility under the honor code, please bring them to your instructor or consult with the office of the Dean of Students or the Instrument of Student Judicial Governance. This document (the Instrument), adopted by the Chancellor, the Faculty Council, and the Student Congress, contains all policies and procedures pertaining to the student honor system. Your full participation and observance of the honor code is expected. Required readings: listed in table below Optional readings: 1) Methods in Social Epidemiology, eds. J. Michael Oakes and Jay S.
