Discrimination and Health Among First-Generation Hispanic/Latinx Immigrants: the Roles of Sleep and Fatigue

Discrimination was also related to physical health, an association that was mediated by poorer sleep among firstgeneration Latinx immigrants (Green et al, 2021) and by psychological distress among Chinese, Pilipino, and Vietnamese Americans (Mereish et al, 2012). These associations are moderated by the density of ingroup members in participants' neighborhoods (Syed & Juan, 2011) and the degree of ethnic identification for US-born Asian Americans (Yip et al, 2008).…”

“…Among Multiracial people, these associations were moderated and mediated by identity integration, and emergent research has begun to consider the moderating role of ecological context such as subjective racial diversity (Gabriel et al, 2021;Jackson et al, 2012;Reid Marks et al, 2020). Among Multicultural people, these associations were mediated by poorer sleep (Green et al, 2021), and moderated by participants' ethnic identity, and the density of ingroup members in the ecological context (Syed & Juan, 2012;Yip et al, 2008). One study directly comparing Multiracial and Multicultural populations found decreased social belonging to be a consistent mediator of the association between identity denial and depressive symptoms and stress (Albuja et al, 2019a).…”
