The Impact of Hearing and Vision Impairment on Objective and Subjective Social Isolation From Family, Friends, and Congregation Members
This study examined the association between hearing and vision sensory impairment and objective and subjective social isolation from extended family, friends, and congregation members. We used data from the National Survey of American Life, a nationally representative survey of African Americans, Black Caribbeans, and non-Hispanic Whites. We conducted six multivariable logistic regression models to determine how hearing and vision impairment were…
Financial strain and sleep problems in the United Kingdom
Financial strain is a well-established risk factor for poor sleep, yet few studies have examined whether this association varies by race-ethnicity, particularly using longitudinal data. This study investigates the relationship between financial strain and multiple dimensions of sleep, including sleep quality, sleep disturbance, daytime dysfunction, sleep latency, and sleep medication use, across White, Black, Mixed, Asian, and Other racial-ethnic…
Social Isolation and Religious Service Attendance Among Black Older Adults
This study examines how religious service attendance is associated with social isolation among Black older adults. Data came from the psychosocial leave-behind questionnaire in the 2016 and 2018 waves of the Health and Retirement Study (HRS), a nationally representative panel study which oversamples for Black older adults. Five different types of social isolation were examined in the current study: overall isolation, child isolation, extended fam…
Institutional, neighborhood, and life stressors on loneliness among older adults
Our study finds racial/ethnic variation in psychosocial stressors predicting loneliness four years later. Nevertheless, neighborhood discohesion was the most salient stressor and was associated with greater loneliness across all racial/ethnic groups. Future research and interventions should consider the differing stress appraisal processes across groups and to support the development of resources and policies to ameliorate loneliness among divers…

The Globalization of International Migration? A Conceptual and Data-Driven Synthesis
Although the globalization of international migration is commonly accepted as a general tendency in contemporary migration patterns (de Haas, Castles, and Miller 2020, 9), the corresponding body of empirical evidence is mixed and fragmented. Our review of global migration patterns over the past half-century highlights how the theories, expectations, and ultimately findings may vary depending on the specific definitions, vantage points, and measur…
Friendship Social Support Networks of African Americans
Friends are crucial for companionship, sharing personal thoughts and feelings, and are positively associated with psychological well-being and mental health. This is one of the first studies to provide an in-depth investigation of social support networks of African American friendship. Using a nationally representative sample of African American adults drawn from the National Survey of American Life, this study investigated sociodemographic corre…

Visa type and financial strain on depressive symptoms among Filipino migrants to the United States
Migrants have been theorized to be healthier than their non-migrant counterparts; however, there is limited examination of health selection using binational data and how selection occurs, particularly for mental health outcomes. This study examines the role of visa status and financial strain as critical factors for mental health selection among Filipino migrants to the U.S. and non-migrants who remain in the Philippines. We used the baseline dat…
Loneliness and Psychological Distress Among Older Californians
Loneliness was the most consistent stressor affecting multiple life domains. However, our findings demonstrate that stress proliferation is occurring among older immigrant adults and the interplay between loneliness, citizenship status, and English proficiency is contributing to heightened distress. Further attention is needed in understanding the role of multiple stressors influencing mental health among immigrant older adults
The impact of the Covid 19 pandemic on motivation to stay
The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted international students due to unexpected changes in policies and regulations regarding their visa status and immigration, travel restrictions, and heightened scrutiny against foreigners. Such changes potentially disrupt and affect international students’ post-graduation migration plan: whether they decide to go back to their home country or stay in Canada and apply for permanent residency. Thi…
Sociodemographic Factors and Neighborhood/Environmental Conditions Associated with Social Isolation Among Black Older Adults
Objectives: To investigate sociodemographic factors and neighborhood/environmental conditions associated with social isolation (SI) among Black older adults. Methods: We utilized data from the 2014 and 2016 Leave-Behind Questionnaire from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS LBQ) among those who self-identified as Black ( N = 2.323). Outcome variables for our study included SI from adult children, other family members, friends, disengagement from…
Crimmigrating Narratives
Examining what we call "crimmigrating narratives," we show that US immigration court criminalizes non-citizens, cements forms of social control, and dispenses punishment in a non-punitive legal setting. Building on theories of crimmigration and a sociology of narrative, we code, categorize, and describe third-party observations of detained immigration court hearings conducted in Fort Snelling, Minnesota, from July 2018 to June 2019. We identify a…
Risk and protective family factors during childhood on youth violence among African American males
African American male youth experience disproportionately higher levels of violence. We examined parental depression among African American mothers and nonresident fathers on parenting stress and school involvement in their adolescent sons' school connectedness and violent behaviors. Using a longitudinal study design, parent factors were assessed when sons were 9 years old on youth outcomes at age 15. We found that maternal depression was associa…
The Effects of Multiple Dimensions of Risk and Protective Factors on Depressive Symptoms Among Nonresident African American Fathers
Compared to other groups, African American men experience proportionately greater adverse social and economic circumstances, which have been linked to poor mental health. A growing body of literature has begun to examine depressive symptoms among African American men; however, limited literature has examined the concurrent contributions of risk and protective factors among nonresident African American fathers. This study examined the relative con…
Food & Community
This article describes the collaborative development of the cross-site evaluation of the Food & Fitness initiative. Evaluators and community partners together created a multi-site evaluation to document similarities and unique aspects across the work in the nine participating communities. The evaluation includes measures of partner engagement, resources, processes, and outcomes of achieving systems and policy change, and impact of the work in vul…
Masculinity as a moderator of discrimination and parenting on depressive symptoms and drinking behaviors among nonresident African-American fathers
This study examined relationships between masculinity ideologies, perceived discrimination, and parenting behaviors on depressive symptoms and drinking behavior among 332 nonresident AfricanAmerican fathers. Masculinity ideologies also were examined as moderators of perceived discrimination and parenting behaviors on outcomes. Results from hierarchical regression analyses showed that culturally based traditional masculinity was associated with le…
