Abstract

The influence of racial differences on perceived psychological distress and impairment was examined with a nationally representative sample of Black and White Latinxs. The study sample was selected from multiple years of the National Health Interview Survey and included 30,519 self-identified Black and White Latinxs between the ages of 26 and 64 years. Results indicated that Black Latinxs reported higher levels of psychological distress—a statistically significant difference—compared to White Latinxs after accounting for demographic (age, gender, marital status, and nativity) and socioeconomic status (level of education and health insurance) indicators. Results also indicated that Black and White Latinxs did not differ on impairment associated with perceived psychological distress. The practice of aggregating Black and White Latinxs obscures the racialized experiences reported by Black Latinxs and associated higher levels of psychological distress. Implications and future directions are discussed.

黑人和白人自我认同的拉丁裔受访者和感知的心理困扰和障碍

种族差异对感知到的心理困扰和损害的影响通过一个具有全国代表性的拉丁裔黑人和白人样本进行了检验。研究样本是从多年的全国健康访谈调查中挑选出来的，包括30,519名年龄在26至64岁之间的自认为是黑人和白人的拉丁人。结果表明，在考虑了人口统计(年龄、性别、婚姻状况和出生)和社会经济地位(教育水平和医疗保险)指标后，拉丁裔黑人报告的心理困扰水平高于拉丁裔白人，这在统计上有显著差异。结果还表明，黑人和白人拉丁人在与感知心理困扰相关的损伤上没有差异。将黑人和白人拉丁裔聚集在一起的做法掩盖了黑人拉丁裔所报告的种族化经历和相关的更高程度的心理困扰。讨论了影响和未来的发展方向。
