Introduction
Anticipatory, Chronic, and Imminent
Protracted armed conflicts increasingly drive long‐term displacement, yet demographic frameworks often treat forced migration from conflict settings as a response to acute, singular events. This study introduces a typology of displacement grounded in the tempo and form of conflict‐related insecurities—anticipatory, chronic, and imminent—and examines their consequences for women displaced from Myanmar to Thailand. Using survey data from 390 women,…
Teacher unfairness in adolescence, educational attainment, and adult Health
Teacher unfairness in adolescence predicted higher depression.•Greater perceived teacher unfairness relative to peers predicted higher depression.•School-wide teacher unfairness predicted poorer self-rated health in adulthood.•Educational attainment mediates the link of teacher unfairness and adult health
A study of impulsivity and adverse childhood experiences in a population health setting
As complex mental health traits and life histories are often poorly captured in hospital systems, the utility of using the Barratt Impulsivity Scale (BIS) and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) for assessing adult disease risks is unknown. Here, we use participants from the Healthy Nevada Project (HNP) to determine if two standard self-assessments could predict the incidence and onset of disease. We conducted a retrospective cohort study involv…
Intimate partner violence, depression, and chronic low‐grade inflammation among middle‐aged women in Cebu, Philippines
OBJECTIVES: Recent discussions in human biology have highlighted how local ecological contexts shape the relationship between social stressors and health across populations. Chronic low-grade inflammation has been proposed as a pathway linking social stressors to health, with evidence concentrated in high-income Western contexts. However, it remains unclear whether this is an important pathway in populations where prevalence is lower due to lower…
Lower Socioeconomic Status Predicts Increased Proinflammatory Signaling in Late Pregnancy
OBJECTIVES: Maternal socioeconomic status (SES) is an important predictor of adverse birth outcomes and postnatal health across global populations. Chronic inflammation is implicated in cardiometabolic disease risk in high-income contexts and is a potential pathway linking maternal adversity to offspring health trajectories. To clarify how socioeconomic inequality shapes pregnancy inflammation in middle-income settings, we investigated SES as a p…
Violence victimisation and young adult cardiometabolic health
In sum, adolescent exposure to direct interpersonal violence significantly affects young adult cardiometabolic health in ways suggesting adolescence is a sensitive period for the onset of harmful cardiometabolic effects in early adulthood. Findings warrant future study of underlying pathways and how these effects shape social inequities in cardiometabolic health among U.S. adults broadly
Protracted Chains of Violence
Using phenome-wide association studies and the SF-12 quality of life metric to identify profound consequences of adverse childhood experiences on adult mental and physical health in a Northern Nevadan…
In this research, we examine and identify the implications of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) on a range of health outcomes, with particular focus on a number of mental health disorders. Many previous studies observed that traumatic childhood events are linked to long-term adult diseases using the standard Adverse Childhood Experience Questionnaire. The study cohort was derived from the Healthy Nevada Project, a volunteer-based population he…
Structural racism in school contexts and adolescent depression
Reproductive health at conflict borders
Human rights must be urgently attended to, through expanded HRV screenings and responsive care, and policy changes to further protect migrant workers, displaced persons, and others in precarious legal status situations
Legal status as a life course determinant of health
This study advances knowledge of LS outside of the migration paradigm, reveals heretofore unexamined connections between LS and access to public health information, and elucidates how instabilities in LS adjudication stages underlie health inequalities over the life course. Findings indicate that securing success in public health and human rights agendas requires attention to how states adjudicate and deploy LS in multiple stages across the life …
Scales and sensitivities in climate vulnerability, displacement, and health
Do intersecting identities structure social contexts to influence life course health? The case of school peer economic disadvantage and obesity
Body mass and the epidemic of chronic inflammation in early mid-adulthood
Early origins of socioeconomic inequalities in chronic inflammation
Stressor landscapes, birth weight, and prematurity at the intersection of race and income
Women of color and women in poverty experience disproportionately high rates of adverse birth outcomes in the United States (US). We use an intersectionality-based approach to examine how maternal life events (LE's) preceding childbirth are patterned and shape birth outcomes at the intersection of race and income. Using population data from the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System we uncover common maternal LE clusters preceding births in …
Displacement contexts and violent landscapes
Moving Beyond Salmon Bias
Despite having lower levels of education and limited access to health care services, Mexican immigrants report better health outcomes than U.S.-born individuals. Research suggests that the Mexican health advantage may be partially attributable to selective return migration among less healthy migrants—often referred to as “salmon bias.” Our study takes advantage of a rare opportunity to observe the health status of Mexican-origin males as they cro…
