don t ask for fair treatment a Gender Analysis of ethnic discrimination response to discrimination and self rated health among marriage migrants in south korea
International Journal for Equity in Health, 2016Co-Authors: Yugyun Kim, Carles Muntaner, Inseo Son, Dainn Wie, Hyunwoo Kim, Seung Sup KimAbstract:Ethnic discrimination is increasingly common nowadays in South Korea with the influx of migrants. Despite the growing body of evidences suggests that ethnic discrimination negatively impacts health, only few researches have been conducted on the association between ethnic discrimination and health outcomes among marriage migrants in Korea. This study sought to examine how ethnic discrimination and response to the discrimination are related to self-rated health and whether the association differs by victim’s Gender. We conducted two-step Analysis using cross-sectional dataset from the ‘National Survey of Multicultural Families 2012’. First, we examined the association between perceived ethnic discrimination and self-rated health among 14,406 marriage migrants in Korea. Second, among the marriage migrants who experienced ethnic discrimination (n=5,880), we examined how response to discrimination (i.e., whether or not asking for fair treatment) is related to poor self-rated health. All analyses were conducted after being stratified by the migrant’s Gender. This research found the significant association between ethnic discrimination and poor self-rated health among female marriage migrants (OR: 1.53, 95 % CI: 1.32, 1.76), but not among male marriage migrants (OR: 1.16, 95 % CI: 0.81, 1.66). In the restricted Analysis with marriage migrants who experienced ethnic discrimination, compared to the group who did not ask for fair treatment, female marriage migrants who asked for fair treatment were more likely to report poor self-rated health (OR: 1.21, 95 % CI: 0.98, 1.50); however, male marriage migrants who asked for fair treatment were less likely to report poor self-rated health (OR: 0.65, 95 % CI: 0.36, 1.04) although both were not statistically significant. This is the first study to investigate Gender difference in the association between response to ethnic discrimination and self-rated health in South Korea. We discussed that Gender may play an important role in the association between response to discrimination and self-rated health among marriage migrants in Korea. In order to prevent discrimination which could endanger the health of ethnic minorities including marriage migrants, relevant policies are needed.

a growing role for Gender Analysis in air pollution epidemiology
Ciencia & Saude Coletiva, 2011Co-Authors: Jane E CloughertyAbstract:Epidemiologic studies of air pollution effects on respiratory health report significant modification by sex, although results are not uniform. Importantly, it remains unclear whether modifications are attributable to socially derived Gendered exposures, to sex-linked physiological differences, or to some interplay thereof. Gender Analysis, which aims to disaggregate social from biological differences between males and females, may help to elucidate these possible sources of effect modification. Studies of children suggest stronger effects among boys in early life and among girls in later childhood. The qualitative review describes possible sources of difference in air pollution response between women and men, which may vary by life stage, coexposures, hormonal status, or other factors. The sources of observed effect modifications remain unclear, although Gender analytic approaches may help to disentangle Gender and sex differences in pollution response. A framework for incorporating Gender Analysis into environmental epidemiology is offered, along with several potentially useful methods from Gender Analysis.

Gender and small scale fisheries a case for counting women and beyond
Fish and Fisheries, 2015Co-Authors: Danika Kleiber, Leila M Harris, Amanda C J VincentAbstract:Marine ecosystem–scale fisheries research and management must include the fishing effort of women and men. Even with growing recognition that women do fish, there remains an imperative to engage in more meaningful and relevant Gender Analysis to improve socio-ecological approaches to fisheries research and management. The implications of a Gender approach to fisheries have been explored in social approaches to fisheries, but the relevance of Gender Analysis for ecological understandings has yet to be fully elaborated. To examine the importance of Gender to the understanding of marine ecology, we identified 106 case studies of small-scale fisheries from the last 20 years that detail the participation of women in fishing (data on women fishers being the most common limiting factor to Gender Analysis). We found that beyond Gender difference in fishing practices throughout the world, the literature reveals a quantitative data gap in the characterization of Gender in small-scale fisheries. The descriptive details of women’s often distinct fishing practices nonetheless provide important ecological information with implications for understanding the human role in marine ecosystems. Finally, we examined why the data gap on women’s fishing practices has persisted, detailing several ways in which commonly used research methods may perpetuate biased sampling that overlooks women’s fishing. This review sheds light on a new aspect of the application of Gender research to fisheries research, with an emphasis on ecological understanding within a broader context of interdisciplinary approaches.
