I conducted a study exploring cultural construction of Alzheimer’s Disease among Alaska Native caregivers and health care providers (Alaska Native and non-Native) using Kleinman’s Explanatory Model of Illness. I am looking for recommendations or examples on how to strucutre the findings for a manuscript? Do I outline findings using the 5 elements of the explanatory model and compare both populations?
Thank you,
Jordan
Hello,
Would these papers be useful? They used the EMIC model:
