Spirituality Moderates the Relationship of Psychosocial Stress to Metabolic Risk Factors Among Afro-Caribbean Immigrants in the US Virgin Islands
The Association of Afro-Caribbean Immigrants’ Feelings of Disconnection from the Community with the Metabolic Syndrome
Understanding the relative influence of attitudes and societal norms on dietary intentions among African-Caribbean women
This study applies the theory of reasoned action (TRA) to understand the relative influence of personal attitude (AT) toward three chronic diseases (diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension), and social normative (SN) groups (family, friends, and church), toward intention to engage in dietary behaviors associated with obesity and chronic disease risk. The sample consists of N = 183 women, aged 18–55 years, in Barbados, West Indies, selected thro…
The differential gender effect of internalized racism on abdominal obesity in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
This research examined the effect of a psychosocial variable, internalized racism, on abdominal obesity, as measured by waist circumference. Results show that the effect of internalized racism on waist circumference persists net of other controls among women, but not among men. Also, among women who had high levels of internalized racism and high educational levels, a positive relationship to abdominal obesity is evident despite the tendency of e…
Education and internalized racism in socio-political context
We focus on the scarcely researched concept of internalized racism (INR), conceptualized as the internalization by blacks of white stereotypes about blacks, to investigate the extent to which it is impacted by education. Samples were drawn from two countries in Southern Africa, Swaziland (N = 308) and Zimbabwe (N = 319). We examined the contrasting socio-political contexts of a history of apartheid in Zimbabwe, and the absence of de jure segregat…
Metabolic syndrome among Caribbean-born persons living in the U.S. Virgin Islands
The frequency of the MS among Caribbean-born persons in the U. S. Virgin Islands is comparable to the frequency of the MS among the general population on the mainland of the United States. Among Caribbean-born persons living in the U.S. Virgin Islands, those who are Hispanic blacks may have a greater risk of cardiovascular disease than do other groups
