“…Using the MIDUS data, many studies have elucidated behavioral (e.g., smoking; Glei, Lee, & Weinstein, 2020) and biological pathways (e.g., inflammation and hormones; Friedman & Herd, 2010; Zilioli, Imami, & Slatcher, 2017) through which SES leads to good or poor mental and physical health (see also Kirsch, Love, Radler, & Ryff, 2019). Experiences of discrimination have also been documented as adverse influences on health among disadvantaged minorities (Fuller‐Rowell et al, 2018; 2012; Surachman, Jenkins, Santos, & Almeida, 2021).…”

Evidence of cultural differences in relationships and emotions has accumulated over the past few decades. As findings on cultural differences in psychological processes have increased, there has been growing interest in investigating whether they have implications for other phenomena, such as health. Using scientific advances from the MIDUS and MIDJA studies, both publicly available, we examine links between culture and health. First, there is a brief review of the accumulated evidence on cultural influences on health correlates concerning psychosocial factors. We then feature two recent developments: a more micro-level perspective regarding biological factors that may be involved in the culture and health linkage, and a more macro-level view of socioeconomic inequality, which also concerns health. Both perspectives inform the pathways through which health effects become manifest. Finally, we conclude our review by highlighting the changing historical contexts within which these cross-cultural investigations occur. Specifically, we draw attention to the widening of economic inequality across cultures and the world-wide COVID-19 pandemic. These instances bring notable implications for future research on health across cultural contexts.

“…Participants who did not indicate their racial origins as white or Black were excluded from the sample (n = 279). Many MIDUS papers have only examined Black and white participants when looking at racial differences in health, given the relatively limited sample size of other racial groups in the dataset (see Assari et al, 2019 ; Lankarani & Assari, 2017 ; Surachman et al, 2021 ), as we do in the current study.…”

“…These gender differences can be further complicated by social class, which may complicate the association between stress response and relationship strain. However, some research indicates that the link between racial discrimination and relationship may be accounted for by financial strain (Lincoln & Chae, 2010; see also Surachman et al, 2021). Thus, examining how gender and experiences of financial strain may influence the association between discrimination and relational well-being could be critical to clarifying a mixed body of literature.…”

Discrimination is a chronic stressor for Black Americans that occurs alongside other social positions and has implications for personal and relational well-being. Using data from the Survey of Midlife in the United States, this study examined the relative and multiplicative effects of gender and financial strain on the links between discrimination and personal and relational well-being among Black Americans in romantic relationships (N = 443). Results indicate that financial strain was associated with poorer personal well-being and that being female was associated with poorer relational well-being. Further, among women (but not men), discrimination was associated with poorer quality of life across levels of financial strain.The findings speak to the potential resilience of Black individuals and their relationships in the face of discrimination.
