Loading patterns showed modest nativity differences: among immigrants, social isolation aligned more strongly with family support than socioeconomic resources and perceived discrimination loaded weakly on interpersonal stressors. Interpersonal stressors were associated with poorer mental and cognitive health in both groups; socioeconomic resources were associated with better health outcomes but more weakly among immigrants. Associations of neighborhood environment and family support with health varied by nativity.DiscussionFindings indicate substantial commonality in SDOH structures alongside suggestive nativity-related differences, warranting replication in larger immigrant samples.","PeriodicalId":51385,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aging and Health","volume":" ","pages":"8982643261494575"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149138325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results: The sample included 263 individuals with a mean (SD) age: 82.1(5.3). Participants with severe CSI had PF limitation scores 1.05 points higher (95% CI: 0.07, 2.04) than those without CSI.

No national estimates exist for subjective cognitive decline (SCD)-a self-reported indicator of worsening memory associated with dementia risk-among older Multiracial adults. Methods: We used 2019-2023 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data from states that administered the optional cognitive decline module (n = 599,874 adults aged ≥45). We estimated crude and age/sex-adjusted SCD prevalence by race and Hispanic ethnicity using survey-weighted logistic regression with predictive marginal standardization. Results: Adjusted SCD prevalence was highest among American Indian or Alaska Native (16.3%) and Multiracial (16.0%) adults, twice that of Asian adults (7.9%). Among Multiracial adults, state-level adjusted prevalence showed low variation (IQR: 18.5%-19.2%).
