[Air-l] Online Support Groups

[David Jacobson]

Dear Colleagues,

I'm looking for references to journal articles, written by sociologists, 
psychologists, anthropologists  or other social scientists about online 
peer illness support groups. The disorders can be of any kind--e.g., breast 
cancer, anorexia, pain syndromes, huntington's disease, etc. I'd appreciate 
any suggestions. If you email them to me (jacobson at brandeis.edu), I'll 
compile them and post them to this list.

Thanks in advance,

Dave Jacobson
