We know that epidemiology looks at the distribution of diseases within specific populations. On the other hand, social epidemiology looks at social behavior and other factors to determine how they affect the distribution of disease within a population. Consider where you live, either in a state, city, or neighborhood community level, and think about a particular disease or health disparity that is most prevalent among a particular group. Describe what the disease/health disparity is, what group it is affecting, and what factors are involved in the reason why this group is affected.
