Project Title:
How race, poverty, health literacy and discrimination affect the relationship between medical mistrust and self-rated health over time
Project Title:
Mistrust of the health care system is associated with underutilization of medical services and poor self-reported health, which itself is an important indicator for future morbidity and mortality.
