An evaluation of the culturally-centered addictions research training (C-Cart) graduate certificate program
The Culturally-Centered Addictions Research Training (C-CART) program is a two-year graduate training program designed to train practicing clinicians and doctoral students in health-related fields in culturally-centered research for the prevention and treatment of substance use disorders (SUDs) among underserved rural communities.This paper presents data from the qualitative portion of program evaluation. These data identified the program’s stren…
Optimism and language proficiency predict incidence of and remission from PTSD among climate migrants
We observed a rapid initial remission from positive PTSD screen for a substantial portion of the sample. Participants who are proficient in English language may be most likely to screen positive for PTSD over time and least likely to remit from a positive PTSD screen. Findings underscore the importance of optimism and higher English proficiency for both decreased incidence of and increased remission from PTSD. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 A…

Cultural–economic stress and mental health among Ukrainian immigrants residing in the U.S. post-Russian invasion
5.01). Importantly, individuals arriving after the invasion were disproportionately represented in the high-stress class, with a significant majority meeting criteria for probable anxiety, depression, and PTSD diagnoses. Furthermore, a substantial portion of high-stress participants met criteria for alcohol dependence, emphasizing the pivotal role of stressors in influencing the mental health of Ukrainian migrants, and suggesting the need for tai…
Cultural stress, personal identity development, and mental health among U.S. Hispanic college students
The present study examines the extent to which culturally stressful experiences may predict impaired well-being, increased internalizing symptoms (depression and anxiety), and increased externalizing problems (social aggression, physical aggression, and rule breaking) among a sample of Hispanic college students in Miami across a 12-day period. The predictive effects of cultural stressors on these outcomes were examined both (a) directly and (b) i…
The effect of the Russian invasion on mental, social, and behavioral health among Ukrainians living in the United States
Our findings offer valuable insights into the mental health and well-being of displaced Ukrainians within the backdrop of ongoing conflicts. These findings have significant implications for support and intervention efforts not only for Ukrainians but also for other crisis migrant groups.

Investigating the association between discrimination, internalizing symptoms, and alcohol use among Latino/a immigrants in the United States
Internalizing symptoms associated with anxiety and depression have been correlated with harmful alcohol use among Latino/as, but little attention has been paid to assessing the association between perceived discrimination and harmful alcohol use. The present study was designed to investigate the association between perceived discrimination, internalizing symptoms associated with anxiety and depression, and harmful alcohol use among Latino/a immig…
Weight-related eating among Latino college students
Longitudinal determinants of thriving in Puerto Rican climate crisis migrants on the U.S. mainland
Effects of cultural stressors and family etiologic factors on behavioral and mental health among Mexican and other Latino/a immigrant parents in the United States
The spillover effect of implicit immigrant stereotypes and incidental pandemic threat
The emotional citizen
Mass migration and COVID-19 represent two converging challenges affecting immigrant-receiving countries. Our understanding of intergroup emotion profiles—positive (happiness, hope, and sympathy) and negative (anger, fear, and disgust)—among members of immigrant destination societies in times of global uncertainty remains limited. Drawing from panel samples from nine countries ( N = 13,645), and controlling for relevant covariates, we aimed to ext…
Equitable Mindfulness
The benefits of mindfulness are well‐documented; however, these benefits may not be evenly distributed across communities. Equitable Mindfulness aims to make these benefits accessible to a wider and more inclusive audience. The aim of this study was to investigate the applicability of Equitable Mindfulness and systemic barriers that prevent mindfulness programs from being equitably accessed across communities. Twenty‐one participants were recruit…
Social vulnerabilities for substance use
Applying a social determinants of health framework, this review brings attention to evidence from social sciences and neuroscience on the role of selected social factors in individual and population-level vulnerability to substance use and substance use disorders (SUDs). The understanding that social vulnerability to substance use and SUDs is multifaceted and occurs across different levels of influence (individual, interpersonal, community, and s…
