Racial Discrimination Predicting Sleep
Emerging adults of color face significant sleep disparities, yet we know less about underlying mechanisms. The goal of the current study was to investigate whether racial discrimination was associated with hours of sleep and sleep dissatisfaction. Further, we tested whether social media and television/digital media use moderated these associations. Participants included 464 emerging adult students of color (i.e., students who identified as Black/…
Protective factors for adverse childhood experiences
Future studies should focus on addressing gaps in our understanding of what factors may buffer the influence of ACES on physical health outcomes and risky health behaviors and our understanding of family and nonfamily relationships and community and cultural protective factors on the ACE-health outcome relationship in adults. Additionally, research is needed that focuses on samples that are more gender diverse and from countries outside of North …
Personal- vs. Group-Level Discrimination and Physical and Mental Health Outcomes Among Black Adolescents
Black adolescents' racial discrimination and suicide behaviors
The current study examined associations between Black adolescents' (M age = 15.55, SD = 1.23) racial discrimination and suicide behaviors (i.e., suicide ideation, suicide plan, and suicide attempts), and whether perceived school safety was a protective moderator. Furthermore, we tested gender differences in relations, which were not significant. Racial discrimination predicted greater suicide behaviors, and school safety informed less suicide beh…

The Association Between Adverse Childhood Experiences and Child Telomere Length
Childhood adversity is linked to shortened telomere length (TL), but behavioral indicators of telomere attrition remain unclear. This study examined the association between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and child TL, and if ACEs were indirectly associated with TL through children’s self-regulatory abilities (i.e., effortful control and self-control). Hypotheses were tested using national data from teachers, parents, and their children (N =…
Perceived Racial Discrimination and Self‐Esteem in African American Youth
Racial socialization was examined as a protective factor that might buffer African American youth from the negative effects of perceived racial discrimination. Two types of racial socialization were examined: messages about race pride and preparation for bias. One hundred twenty-eight eighth-grade African American students participated in the study. As anticipated, both types of socialization moderated the relationship between discrimination and …
