Abstract

To address high rates of social isolation and depression among female Mexican immigrants, we are testing Tertulias (Spanish, conversational gatherings), an innovative peer support group intervention. Our anthropologically inspired theoretical architecture integrates gendered emplacement theory, women's funds of knowledge, and cultural and contextual situatedness. We used a community-driven, community-engaged research (CD-CEnR) design, involving 59 female Mexican immigrants who participated in weekly group meetings by Zoom. Data were gathered from survey and social network analysis (SNA), hair samples for cortisol testing at baseline and 12-months, and qualitative data from meeting notes, interviews, evaluation discussions, participant creative projects, and "Ripple Effects Mapping (REM)." As we describe, the Tertulias group meetings created a generative social environment that valued and incorporated participants' experience-based knowledge and enhanced social relationships, providing mechanisms for reducing social isolation and depression among participants.

揭示同伴支持在墨西哥女性移民生活中的力量。
为了解决墨西哥女性移民中高比率的社会孤立和抑郁问题,我们正在测试Tertulias(西班牙语,会话聚会),这是一种创新的同伴支持小组干预。我们受到人类学启发的理论建筑整合了性别安置理论、女性知识基金以及文化和情境性。我们采用了社区驱动、社区参与的研究(CD-CEnR)设计,涉及59名墨西哥女性移民,她们参加了Zoom每周的小组会议。数据收集自调查和社会网络分析(SNA),基线和12个月时皮质醇测试的头发样本,以及会议记录、访谈、评估讨论、参与者创意项目和“涟漪效应映射(REM)”的定性数据。正如我们所述,Tertulias小组会议创造了一种富有成效的社会环境,重视并吸收了参与者基于经验的知识,加强了社会关系,提供了减少参与者之间的社会孤立和抑郁的机制。
