  • An Interpersonal Physiological Pathway Framework Linking Racism and Well‐Being in Black American Families

    Open AccessAnnabelle Armah, Annabelle E Armah et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychobiology2025References: 169

    In the US, Black parents and children are regularly exposed to multiple forms of racism, including interpersonal experiences of discrimination and structural inequities that disproportionately affect Black Americans. A sizeable body of evidence has established that these exposures can have detrimental consequences for child health and well‐being, and may do so by altering individuals’ physiological functioning. However, an understanding of how ra…

  • Immigration stress and maternal sensitivity in a Mexican immigrant sample

    Annabelle E Armah, Betty Lin et al.ARTICLECultural Diversity & Ethnic…2024

    The present study contributes to our understanding of the sequelae of immigration stress in Mexican immigrant mothers and the cultural resiliency factors that may alter its effects. In contrast to hypotheses, findings suggested that mothers who endorse more immigration stress may also exhibit higher RSA, and links may be more pronounced among those with strong familism values. Further research is needed to advance understanding of resiliency proc…

  • Developmental Origins of Pregnancy-Related Morbidity and Mortality in Black U.S. Women

    Open AccessBetty Lin, Allison A AppletonARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    In the US, Black women are at disproportionate risk for pregnancy-related morbidity and mortality (PRMM). Disparities in PRMM have been tied to elevated rates of obstetric cardiometabolic complications for Black women. Research seeking to elucidate the determinants of Black PRMM to date have focused predominantly on risk factors occurring during pregnancy (e.g., health risk behaviors, quantity and quality of prenatal care, provider behaviors, and…

    Anna J Yeo, Leslie F Halpern et al.ARTICLECultural Diversity & Ethnic…2022Cited by: 1

    Finding highlight group-specific processes underlying Black and Asian Americans' experiences of discrimination and depressive symptoms.

  • The psychophysiological salience of past experiences of discrimination

    Betty Lin, Amanda M Flagg et al.ARTICLECultural Diversity & Ethnic…2022

    Findings complement a growing body of research suggestive that experiences of discrimination are psychophysiologically salient. Additionally, discriminatory experiences may elicit distinctive patterns of HF-HRV responsivity compared to generic social stressors. Efforts to elucidate the unique role of discrimination-specific HF-HRV responsivity may be critical for delineating discrimination-health linkages. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, …

  • Infant Temperament Profiles, Cultural Orientation, and Toddler Behavioral and Physiological Regulation in Mexican-American Families

    Open AccessBetty Lin, Kathryn Lemery‐chalfant et al.ARTICLEChild Development2021

    This study sought to (a) replicate infant temperament profiles from predominantly White samples in a sample of low-income, predominantly first-generation Mexican-American families, (b) investigate associations between infant temperament profiles and toddler behavioral and physiological regulation, and (c) explore whether mothers’ cultural orientation would moderate those associations. Mothers and infants (n = 322; 46% male) were assessed during p…

  • Prenatal Exposure to Favorable Social and Environmental Neighborhood Conditions Is Associated with Healthy Pregnancy and Infant Outcomes

    Open AccessAllison A Appleton, Betty Lin et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2021

    Neighborhood and individual level risks commonly co-occur for pregnant women and may cumulatively contribute to birth outcomes. Moreover, the relationship between favorable social and environmental neighborhood conditions and perinatal outcomes has been understudied. This study considered the accumulated impact of prenatal exposure to positive neighborhood social, environmental, and educational conditions in relation to maternal health during pre…

  • The integrative model of family stress underlying Spanish and English vocabulary development in Mexican American children

    Open AccessAnna J Yeo, Amanda M Flagg et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychology2021References: 11

    Early oral language development lays an essential foundation for academic and socioemotional competencies but is vulnerable to the impact of family stress. Despite robust evidence that family stress affects early oral language development in monolingual samples, little is known about whether the family stress processes affecting language acquisition are similar among dual language learners. Furthermore, although Mexican American families often fa…

  • Ontogeny of emotional and behavioral problems in a low-income, Mexican American sample

    Open AccessBetty Lin, Keith A Crnic et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychology2017Cited by: 1References: 3

    Clinically meaningful behavior problems are thought to be present beginning in the early toddler years, yet few studies have investigated correlates of behavior problems assessed before age 2 years. The current study investigated the direct and interactive contributions of early infant and caregiver characteristics thought to play an important role in the ontogeny of behavior problems. Specifically, the study examined: (a) the links between infan…
