Generational Status, Gender, and Health
Scholarship on immigrant health among Asian Americans in the United States has been limited in its discussion of identities as a useful marker of integration. At the same time, a large volume of research has focused on the foreign-born population, with relatively fewer studies including their native-born counterparts. As a result, little is known about how identities can enhance or risk the health of Asian Americans comparatively across generatio…
Smoking at the Intersections of Race/Ethnicity and Sexual Orientation
Research has tended to document smoking disparities separately by race/ethnicity and sexual orientation, with relatively less work examining the intersections of both identities. As such, we draw on data from the 2010 Social Justice Sexuality Project to demonstrate how cigarette smoking disparities manifest across detailed intersections of race/ethnicity and sexual orientation among a sample of U.S. adults. Findings from logistic regression model…
Caregiving, Gender, and Health
Unpaid caregiving by family or friends has increased over the recent years, with a simultaneous decline in the health of caregivers. Yet, limited research has examined the interrelationships between caregiving status, gender, age and health, or how dimensions of caregiving (type of care, relationship with care recipient) complicate these relationships. Using data from 428,395 U.S. adults from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS)…
Healthcare satisfaction at the intersections of sexual orientation and race/ethnicity
While levels of satisfaction with care tend to be generally high across groups, future research should endeavor to investigate the driving factors that lower the odds of high healthcare satisfaction among those with intersecting minority identities
Acculturation and Self-rated Health Among Asian Immigrants
Using the 2002–2003 National Latino and Asian American Study (NLAAS), we examine the relationship between acculturation and poor-to-fair self-rated health (SRH) among Asian immigrants ( N = 1639). Using latent class analysis, we construct a multidimensional measure of acculturation that considers dimensions of involvement in U.S. culture as well as attachment to Asian ethnic cultures and identify three classes of Asian immigrants: the assimilated…
Acculturation, social support and suicidal ideation among Asian immigrants in the United States
This study examined suicidal ideation among Asian immigrant adults in the United States, with consideration of the roles of acculturation and social support. Using the 2002-2003 National Latino and Asian American Study (NLAAS), I conducted latent class analysis with measures of U.S. cultural orientation and Asian ethnic affiliation to create a multidimensional construct of acculturation. Three acculturation groups were identified (assimilated, in…

While levels of satisfaction with care tend to be generally high across groups, future research should endeavor to investigate the driving factors that lower the odds of high healthcare satisfaction among those with intersecting minority identities
