COVID-Discrimination, Social Cohesion, Neighborhood Safety, and Mental Health Among AANHPI Older Adults.
Introduction: During the COVID-19 pandemic, Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) older adults experienced discrimination. There is evidence that neighborhood context may play a protective role in mental health outcomes.
Methods: Using the 2022 California AANHPI Community Needs Survey, multivariate regression models examined associations among discrimination, neighborhood characteristics, and mental health.
Results: COVID-related discrimination was associated with higher levels of serious psychological distress, while higher levels of neighborhood social cohesion and safety were associated with better mental health outcomes.
Discussion: These findings highlight the importance of neighborhood factors in promoting AANHPI older adults' mental health.
