Evaluating the Role of Language Preference in the Association between Mental Health Symptoms and Self-Rated Health Among U.S. Latino Adults
Night and day
Racial and ethnic disparities in traffic stop outcomes remain a persistent issue in U.S. policing. There is a link between a driver’s race and gender, with male Black and Latino drivers being arrested at higher rates than white drivers. Literature suggests time of day influences arrest outcomes. This study examines whether racial and ethnic disparities in arrest outcomes in traffic stops vary by time of day in Travis County, Texas. Data from Aust…
Factors related to social disconnectedness among older unpaid caregivers
Background Older unpaid caregivers often face social isolation and loneliness, yet risk factors for social disconnection remain largely unexplored. As the demand for unpaid caregiving rises with an aging population, there is a need for targeted interventions to reduce social disconnectedness in this vulnerable group. This study aimed to identify determinants of social disconnectedness. Methods Data came from a sample of 701 unpaid caregivers aged…
Cohort and Gender Differences in Stability Over Five Years Among Mexican-Origin Caregivers to Older Adults Living With Cognitive Impairment
The current study examines cohort (i.e., Generation X, Baby Boomers, and Silent Generation) and gender differences in the stability of Mexican-origin family caregivers over time. The data comes from Mexican-origin caregivers to community-dwelling older adults living in the west and southwestern United States from the Caregiving Supplement to the Hispanic Established Populations for the Epidemiologic Study of the Elderly (2010/11–2016). Multinomia…

Social Inequalities in Multiple Chronic Disease Risk Factors among a population-based Sample of Latinas in California
Data from 1,248 Latina mothers who participated in the Geographic Research on Wellbeing (GROW) study were used to examine associations between SES, neighborhood-level Latinx concentration, neighborhood-level poverty and having two or more modifiable behavioral risk factors (e.g., smoking, drinking) for chronic disease. Logistic regression models were estimated stratified by nativity and adjusted for age and marital status. Among immigrants, low S…
Maternal depression and parenting stress in English-speaking Latina mothers with a history of adverse childhood experiences
A comparison of rural–urban differences in out-of-pocket expenses among older Mexicans with diabetes
Objective: To compare total out-of-pocket expenses for physician visits and medications among older adults living with diabetes in Mexico from urban, semi-urban, and rural areas. Methods: The sample included 2,398 Mexicans aged 65 years and older with self-reported diabetes from the 2018 Mexican Health and Aging Study. Out-of-pocket expenses for physician visits and medications were regressed on locality, controlling for several factors. Results:…
Adversity and child body mass index in Fragile Families over 15 years
Findings highlight the differential influence of past adversity type and timing on child BMI. Interpersonal and community adversity were associated with decreased BMIz, and economic adversity with increased BMIz. Differences in directionality of associations suggest research should capture multiple dimensions of adversity in early childhood and possible positive and negative trends in effects on child weight as children grow from early to mid-chi…
Examining School and Neighborhood Effects of Socioeconomic Status on Childhood Obesity in the U.S
Obesity amongst Kindergartners in Texas is above the national average, particularly among Hispanic students. Research on the impact of school and neighborhood-level SES on obesity in childhood using multilevel models is lacking. Survey data were collected from Hispanic caregivers of pre-kindergarten students in Fall 2019 (n = 237). Students were clustered in thirty-two neighborhoods and twelve schools. The dependent variable was the child’s body …

Understanding feeding practices of Latinx mothers of infants and toddlers at risk for childhood obesity
Infancy and toddlerhood are critical stages for the development of habits that can lead to future obesity, and caregivers have an important influence on these habits. We conducted this qualitative semistructured interview study to explore the feeding practices of Latinx mothers of young children who are at risk for childhood obesity in order to identify targets for obesity prevention. We interviewed Latinx mothers (N = 14) of a child ages 6-18 mo…

Psychosocial Depression Interventions for Dialysis Patients, With Attention to Latinos
Purpose: Depression is a common and debilitating condition that often goes undetected and untreated among people with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). We conducted a scoping review to identify psychosocial depression interventions for adult dialysis patients and gaps in depression care, with particular attention to Latinos, a group disproportionately affected by ESRD in the United States. Methods: We searched electronic databases and grey literatu…
