    The influence of social norms on flu vaccination among African-American and white adults

    Although influenza vaccination is a low-cost preventive measure, most American adults, particularly African Americans, do not get vaccinated. This article highlights the findings of racial disparities on social norms in influenza vaccination. The authors identify a greater association between subjective norms and vaccination behavior, which suggests that health promotion efforts, particularly those targeting African-Americans, may benefit from focusing on subjective norms and encouraging friends and family members to talk about the benefits of influenza vaccination.

    Sexual networks and HIV risk among black men who have sex with men in six U.S. cities

    Analysis of self-reported data from 1,349 black men who have sex with men in the United States, a group that is disproportionately affected by HIV, found that the men's sexual networks were relatively small and often overlapped with their social networks. Network interventions that engage the social networks of black men who have sex with men, such as peer influence, should be developed to affect social norms around HIV testing and HIV status disclosure.

    An expanded One Health model: Integrating social science and One Health to inform study of the human–animal interface

    Policy discussions on zoonotic diseases like Ebola have increasingly been framed by a One Health model: Transmission occurs as a consequence of interactions between people and animals that are becoming more frequent because of environmental changes such as deforestation. Until recently, the discussion focused mainly on the biological and environmental aspects of the model. This paper presents an expanded model that explicitly includes social factors such as norms, community dynamics and settlement patterns and makes the case for increased attention on how these factors affect human–animal interaction in the context of both local and large-scale environmental changes.
