摘要
背景:社会支持与临床结果的改善有关,但对美国移民的研究却不足。我们研究了两种类型的社会支持,即感知到的医疗服务提供者支持和社区支持,并对美国移民与非移民的社会支持感知进行了比较:我们对第五次全国健康信息趋势调查(Health Information National Trends Survey 5)第二周期的自我报告数据进行了横截面数据分析。结果:移民身份与非移民身份没有关系:结果:移民身份与感知到的医疗服务提供者支持或社区支持无关。然而,与非移民相比,美国移民更有可能很少(调整后的几率比[aOR]=3.07)或从未(aOR=3.18)获得情感支持:需要进一步开展研究,纳入可能影响美国不同移民群体社会支持的细微因素(如抵达美国的时间),以确定社会支持对这一服务不足且经常被忽视的人群的健康状况的影响。
Supporting Underserved Communities for Health Care: US Immigrants' Experiences with Social Support.
Background: Social support is associated with improved clinical outcomes but is understudied among US immigrants. We examined two types of social support, perceived health provider support and community support, and characterized perceptions of social support among US immigrants compared with nonimmigrants.
Methods: We conducted cross-sectional data analysis on self-reported data from Health Information National Trends Survey 5, Cycle 2. Population-level estimates were obtained using jack-knife replicate weights.
Results: Immigrant status was not associated with perceived health care provider support or community support. However, compared with nonimmigrants, US immigrants were more likely to report rarely (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]=3.07) or never (aOR=3.18) having access to emotional support.
Conclusions: Further research that incorporates nuanced factors (eg, time since arrival) that may influence social support in diverse US immigrant groups is needed to determine the impact of social support on health outcomes in an underserved and often overlooked population.
期刊介绍:
Ethnicity & Disease is an international journal that exclusively publishes information on the causal and associative relationships in the etiology of common illnesses through the study of ethnic patterns of disease. Topics focus on: ethnic differentials in disease rates;impact of migration on health status; social and ethnic factors related to health care access and health; and metabolic epidemiology. A major priority of the journal is to provide a forum for exchange between the United States and the developing countries of Europe, Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
