Abstract

The present 21-day daily diary study (conducted 2021–2022) tested anger and racism-related vigilance as potential transdiagnostic mediators linking exposure to racial and ethnic discrimination (RED) to distress (negative affect and stress, respectively). The data analytic sample included N = 317 Mexican-origin adolescents (M_age = 13.5 years; 50.8% male, 46.7% female; 2.5% non-binary) from the Midwestern United States. Results from longitudinal mediation models revealed significant mediation effects through anger and racism-related vigilance, respectively, in the association between daily RED and daily distress, both within and across adolescents. Implications for theory, research, and practice are discussed so that future work can leverage these novel findings toward promoting the well-being of Mexican-origin adolescents, especially those who live in contexts of ethnoracial adversity.

墨西哥裔青少年歧视与苦恼的每日日记研究：测试中介机制

本 21 天每日日记研究（2021-2022 年进行）测试了愤怒和种族主义相关警觉作为潜在的跨诊断中介将种族和民族歧视（RED）暴露与困扰（分别为负面情绪和压力）联系起来。数据分析样本包括 N = 317 名来自美国中西部的墨西哥裔青少年（年龄 = 13.5 岁；50.8% 为男性，46.7% 为女性；2.5% 为非二元）。纵向中介模型的结果显示，在青少年内部和青少年之间，愤怒和与种族主义相关的警觉性分别对日常RED和日常困扰之间的关联产生了显著的中介效应。本文讨论了理论、研究和实践的意义，以便未来的工作可以利用这些新发现来促进墨西哥裔青少年的福祉，尤其是那些生活在种族逆境中的青少年。
