How do professions globalize? Lessons from the Global South in US medical education

This article explores the professional construction of the space of Global Health. I argue that the growth of Global Health as a field of practice does not merely indicate an intensification of North-South intervention. It is also a professional project of reimporting lessons from the South to countries in the North. I focus on the emerging didactic regime for Global Health in US medical education and the deterritorialized "global" lessons that students are taught in poor countries. By rescaling these lessons to precarious settings at home, the space of Global Health is reterritorialized as a Global Medical South stretching into the United States, reinforcing the perception that health is not a right but a privilege. The analysis is based on a content analysis of university websites and didactic handbooks and a sample of sixty-four articles evaluating the education effects of study abroad experiences. It reveals an emerging canon of Global Health virtues and the construction of domestic scales for Global Health practices, which are based on ethnic and socioeconomic categories. This analysis of professional projects as spatial projects sheds new light on the geography of Global Health and of professional globalization more generally

In Search of Group Optimality: An Examination of the Effects of Anonymity and Task Complexity on Group Performance

This study explores the effects of anonymity on group behavior and structure. We hypothesize that there is an optimal degree of anonymity for each type of task complexity. A completely anonymous group is expected to outperform its semi-anonymous counterpart on brainstorming tasks. However, we expect the greater knowledge of team structure and the high trust and cohesion that exist in semi-anonymous groups to help these groups do better on decision making tasks. This study further examines the role of trust in encouraging information sharing and critical evaluation. We find that high levels of trust may not be optimal when it leads to groups lowering their evaluation of teammate\u27s suggestions. In this case a certain amount of distrust may be the key to strong group performance
