AG 07-25-07 Interview with Jessica Frank

25 July 2007, 11:00 a.m. I first met Jessica at a wedding reception I attended with my host family my first night in Lakeview. She told me she worked at the Extension Office, so I’ve seen her around ever since and interviewed her while we were both there to get a perspective of Lakeview from someone who is my peer

AG 07-23-07 Interview with Danielle Callaghan

Date and Time: 23 July 2007, 1:30 pm I met Danielle at the pool when I went to interview other lifeguards. Her mom happened to be there with her to drive her over to the kiddie pool where Danielle is the only lifeguard during the week. I met her there during her shift to interview her. She didn’t really seem like the type to put a great deal of thought into what she eats; she’s grown up in this small town and appreciates that quality

AG 07-20-07 Interview with Steven Stewart

Date and Time: 20 July 2007, 10:50 a.m. Steven is the owner and manager of Stewarts. I met him briefly before this sche-duled interview which took place in his office at Stewarts and was not recorded. He seemed like the kind of person who was all about marketing and maximizing profit, while creating a friendly atmosphere and local feel.Keywords: Lakeview, interview, anthropology, transcript, supermarket, food systems, rural, foo

AG 07-23-07 Interview with Jamie Davis

Date and Time: 23 July, 9 a.m. Jamie moved to Lakeview 14 months ago with her fiancé who works for the Forest Service. They joke about how her job at the Extension Office has been more of a career advancement for her than moving here for her fiancé’s job has been for him. I stayed with them over the weekend and interviewed Jamie in her office

AG 07-17-07 Interview with Brandon Scott Utley

Date and Time: 17 July 2007, 3:40 p.m. Brandon is McKenna and Cara’s swim coach, I interviewed him in the kitchen at the OSU Extension Office. He seemed eager to interview about food and arrived almost immediately after I talked to him on the phone. He struck me as the kind of person who would be concerned with health because he is so involved with swim team. Once we started talking, he had a lot to say about health food and the options available in Lake-view

AG 07-22-07 Interview with Jennifer Pittman

I interviewed Jennifer while the Staubs were having a BBQ for their new neighbors. She is a student at OIT in Klamath and home for the summer in Lakeview. She seemed happy to do the interview and was a valuable resource on account of her being the only one I talked to, formally, that did not love Lakeview. In fact, she disliked it. When asked why she said, “because it’s small and gossipy.” Her brother John and Logan Staub were in and out of the room during the interview, which took place in the basement of the Staubs’ house, sitting on a couch. She was more eager about the interview before I started asking the community questionnaire which, I think, made her feel ignorant and unhelpful. I decided to ask a few questions from the youth questionnaire, these she responded to more readily

AG 07-23-07 Interview with Desiree Corona

Date and Time: 23 July 2007, 2:45 p.m. Desiree Corona works at Blarney Bros and when the manager left for the day, she was left in charge. She is a Sandwich Artist and has been working there for about a year and during that time has been promoted to not only making sandwiches, but also brewing coffee for her clientele of “hungry people.” She has noticed that some people order cer-tain things because they’re watching their health, and some try to, but that is not the case most of the time.Keywords: anthropology, food, transcript, rural, Lakeview, Food systems, intervie

Everyday Discrimination and Alcohol use among Sexual Minority Adults in a U.S. National Probability Sample

Objective: Limited research assesses how sexual orientation and gender identity and expression (SOGIE)-based discrimination affects alcohol use above and beyond non-SOGIE-related discrimination and how this may differ for sexual minority subgroups. We examined if SOGIE-related discrimination is additive in affecting alcohol use above and beyond non-SOGIE-related discrimination and examined differences in alcohol use, everyday discrimination, and the attribution of discrimination by sex and sexual identity. Methods: A national probability sample of sexual minority adults in the United States was used (N = 1311, female = 56.4%). Bivariate sexual identity and sex-based differences in drinking frequency, heavy episodic drinking (HED), everyday discrimination, and the attribution of discrimination were assessed. Sexual identity and sex-stratified logistic regression models were estimated, where everyday discrimination and the attribution of discrimination predicted drinking frequency and HED. Results: Several differences by sex assigned at birth and sexual identity in drinking frequency, HED, everyday discrimination, and the attribution of discrimination were found in bivariate analyses. In logistic regression models, experiencing SOGIE-related in addition to other types of discrimination was associated with higher odds of HED only for gay males. No other associations were found for everyday discrimination or the attribution of discrimination with drinking frequency or HED. Conclusions: Findings suggest sex and sexual identity-based differences in everyday discrimination and the attribution of discrimination

Cigarette Smoking and Minority Stress Across Age Cohorts in a National Sample of Sexual Minorities:Results From the Generations Study

BACKGROUND: Sexual minority populations in the United States have persistently higher rates of cigarette use than heterosexuals, partially driven by exposure to minority stressors (e.g., discrimination and victimization). Little is known about cigarette use across cohorts of sexual minority adults who came of age in distinctly different sociopolitical environments. PURPOSE: To examine cigarette use and minority stressors across three age cohorts of U.S. sexual minority adults. METHODS: We used data from the Generations Study, a nationally representative sample (N = 1,500) of White, Black, and Latino/a sexual minority adults in three age cohorts (younger: 18–25 years; middle: 34–41 years; and older: 52–59 years). Survey data were collected from March 2016 to March 2017. We used sex-stratified logistic regression models to estimate adjusted odds ratios (aORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for associations between age cohort, minority stressors (discrimination and victimization), and two indicators of cigarette smoking (lifetime use and current use). RESULTS: Prevalence of current cigarette use in each age cohort was high (younger: 20%; middle: 33%; and older: 29%). Relative to the younger cohort, men and women in the middle- and older-age cohorts had significantly higher odds of lifetime and current smoking (e.g., men, current, aOR [95% CI]: middle = 2.47 [1.34, 4.52], older = 2.85 [1.66, 4.93]). Minority stressors were independently associated with higher odds of current smoking; when victimization was included, the magnitude of the association between age cohort and current smoking was diminished but remained significant. CONCLUSIONS: Smoking cessation interventions must consider the role of minority stress and the unique needs of sexual minority people across the life course
