This book was released on 2012 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation used the risk and resilience framework to examine the associations between perceived racial discrimination, family racial socialization, nativity status, and psychological distress. Regression analyses were conducted to test the links between perceived racial discrimination and psychological distress and the moderation on these associations by family racial socialization and nativity status. Results suggest, for U.S.-born adolescents, cultural socialization strengthened the relation between subtle racial discrimination and anxiety symptoms. In addition, promotion of mistrust buffered the relations of both subtle and blatant racial discrimination on depressive symptoms. For foreign-born adolescents, promotion of mistrust exacerbated the association between blatant racial discrimination and depressive symptoms. Overall, the findings revealed the detrimental effects of perceived racial discrimination on the mental health of Asian American adolescents, how some family racial socialization strategies strengthen or weaken the relation between perceived racial discrimination and psychological distress, and the different ways foreign-born and U.S-born adolescents may interpret racial discrimination and experience family racial socialization.

This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Prior research links reported experiences of racist and sexist events with psychological symptomatology of racial/ethnic minority persons and women, respectively (e.g., Bowen-Reid & Harrell, 2002; Fischer & Holz, 2007; Moradi & Risco, 2006; Moradi & Subich, 2002). No published study to date, however, has examined the simultaneous links of perceived racist and sexist events with mental health for Asian American women. The present study examined a model that tested direct and indirect relations among perceived discrimination, sense of personal control, psychological distress, self-esteem, acculturation, and enculturation in a sample of Asian American women. Path analysis of the model indicated that (a) perceived racist events were related to greater psychological distress, indirectly through sense of personal control, (b) perceived sexist events were related directly to greater psychological distress, (c) acculturation to U.S. culture was related to less psychological distress and greater self-esteem, indirectly through sense of personal control and (d) enculturation to culture of origin was related to less psychological distress and greater self-esteem, indirectly through sense of personal control.

Download or read book Mediating and Moderating Factors in the Asian American s Psychological Distress written by Vaibhavee Rahul Agaskar and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research study sought to examine moderating and mediating factors in Asian Americans psychological distress by using data from the National Latino and Asian American study (NLAAS), the first national psychiatric epidemiological survey of Asian Americans in the United States (NLAAS, 2002-03). A sample of 2095 Asian American adults was selected from the NLAAS data set which was based on stratified probability sampling methodology. The in-person computer-assisted interviews were conducted in the respondent's preferred language by usually culturally relevant and equivalent scales or instruments. It was hypothesized that Family Factor would mediate/moderate the effects of Acculturation Stress and Perceived Discrimination (Everyday/Specific Racial) on Psychological Distress. Similarly, Social Support was hypothesized to mediate/moderate the effects of Acculturation Stress and Perceived Discrimination (Everyday, Specific Racial) on Psychological Distress. Finally, Ethnic Identity was also hypothesized to mediate/moderate the effect of Perceived Discrimination (Everyday/Specific Racial) on Psychological Distress. A series of multiple regression analyses were used to empirically test mediating and moderating models of Asian American Psychological Distress. Family Conflict was observed to be a mediating as well as a moderating factor in Asian Americans' Psychological Distress. Family Conflict partially mediated the effects of both Acculturation Stress and Racial Discrimination (Everyday and Specific) on Psychological Distress. Family Conflict also moderated the effect of Everyday Discriminiation on Psychological Distress. Social Support played a crucial moderating factor on Asian Americans' Psychological Distress. Social Support with Relatives partially moderated the effect of both Acculturation Stress and Racial Discrimination (Everyday and Specific) on Psychological Distress. Problems with Social Support also moderated the effects of Everyday Discrimination on Psychological Distress. Implications for counselors along with future research directions were also discussed.

Download or read book Measuring Racial Discrimination written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-07-24 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many racial and ethnic groups in the United States, including blacks, Hispanics, Asians, American Indians, and others, have historically faced severe discriminationâ€"pervasive and open denial of civil, social, political, educational, and economic opportunities. Today, large differences among racial and ethnic groups continue to exist in employment, income and wealth, housing, education, criminal justice, health, and other areas. While many factors may contribute to such differences, their size and extent suggest that various forms of discriminatory treatment persist in U.S. society and serve to undercut the achievement of equal opportunity. Measuring Racial Discrimination considers the definition of race and racial discrimination, reviews the existing techniques used to measure racial discrimination, and identifies new tools and areas for future research. The book conducts a thorough evaluation of current methodologies for a wide range of circumstances in which racial discrimination may occur, and makes recommendations on how to better assess the presence and effects of discrimination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how you can help combat micro and macroaggressions against socially devalued groups with this authoritative new resource Microintervention Strategies: What You Can Do to Disarm and Dismantle Indivdiual and Systemic Racism and Bias, delivers a cutting-edge exploration and extension of the concept of microinterventions to combat micro and macroaggressions targeted at marginalized groups in our society. While racial bias is the primary example used throughout the book, the author’s approach is applicable to virtually all forms of bias and discrimination, including that directed at those with disabilities, LGBTQ people, women, and others. The book calls out unfair and biased institutional policies and practices and presents strategies to help reduce the impact of sexism, heterosexism, ableism, and classism. It provides a new conceptual framework for distinguishing between the different categories of microinterventions, or individual anti-bias actions, and offers specific, concrete, and practical advice for taking a stand against micro and macroaggressions. Microintervention Strategies delivers the knowledge and skills necessary to confront individual and institutional manifestations of oppression. Readers will also enjoy: - A thorough introduction to the major conceptual distictions between micro and macroaggressions and an explanation of the manifestations, dynamics, and impact of bias on marginalized groups. - An exploration of the meaning and definition of micorinterventions, including a categorization into three types: microaffirmations, micorprotections, and microchallenges. - A review of literature that discusses the positive benefits that accrue to targets, allies, bystanders, and others when microinterventions take place. - A discussion of major barriers to acting against prejudice and discrimination. Perfect for undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in psychology, education, social work, and political science, Microintervention Strategies will also earn a place in the libraries of psychologists, educators, parents, and teachers, who hope to do their part to combat microaggressions and other forms of bias and discrimination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Support, Life Events, and Depression describes a research program that looked into the social process of mental health. This research program provided an arena for opportunities to explore many topics concerning the relationships among social support, life events, and mental health (primarily depressive symptoms). The volume is organized into six parts. Part I sets the background and scope of the study. Part II focuses on the dependent variable (depression), one of the two independent variables (life events], and the key control variable [psychological resources). Part III describes the measurement of social support. Part IV examines the basic models involving social support, life events, psychological resources, and depression. Part V proceeds to examine the reduced basic model in terms of a number of factors, such as age, sex, marital status, social class, and history of prior illness. Part VI discusses several specific issues regarding the dynamics of social support. This book is intended primarily for researchers, scientists, professionals, and instructors who are interested in examining both conceptual and methodological issues regarding social factors in mental health. Thus, those working in the area of public health, social and behavioral sciences, and medical professions may find this book useful. Because of the way the chapters are organized, it is possible for researchers and practitioners alike to select and read chapters pertinent to their specific interests.
