BUS 325 EC Sex & Gender Differences in Osteoarthritis with Dr Melissa Laitner Report

 

  1. Go to: The Society of Women’s Health Research (Links to an external site.)
  2. Go to “News”
  3. Click on “News Service”
  4. Review “archived articles by topic”
  5. Click on a condition
  6. Read one or more articles regarding the sex differences for this condition
  7. Prepare a 2–3 page paper based on the following structure and content: 
    1. A title page and a table of contents page
    2. An introduction that identifies the condition you have selected
    3. A background section that briefly discusses the important points on that condition and how men and women differ with respect to the condition.
    4. An analysis that ties course material to a discussion on how society views the condition itself as well as similarities and differences in perceptions of how men and women contract and cope with the condition.

      For example, “pain” is one of the conditions listed in the table. A common stereotype exists that women handle pain better than men—consider the typical comment that “if men had to endure the pain of childbirth, there would be fewer babies in the world.” On the other hand, men who react strongly to pain from injuries are often chided with comments, such as “take it like a man” or “don’t be a sissy.” These comments can be tied back to the readings through sex and gender stereotypes and differences.

    5. A conclusion that summarizes the main points of your findings and reflect on what information, if any, surprised you in reading about the condition you selected.
