The structure of religion and spirituality in a diverse sample of adults in the United States
Objective: This paper details psychometric analyses of religion and spirituality (R/S) measures in a diverse sample of U.S. adults in the Study on Stress, Spirituality, and Health (SSSH). Methods: participants. Given our goal of identifying a robust, parsimonious set of R/S measures for common use in U.S. cohort studies, we analyzed the structure of individual R/S items in a combined sample and disregarded whether items were part of a pre-existin…
Religious Coping, Stress, and Mental and Physical Health
This study examined the association between perceived stress and mental/physical health (SF-12) and the moderating role of positive and negative religious coping using data ( n = 5,059) from three cohorts (the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos ( n = 585), Nurses’ Health Study II ( n = 3,882), and The Strong Heart Study ( n = 592)) which included Hispanic/Latino, non-Hispanic White, and American Indian individuals in the USA. By inc…
Association between migration and cardiovascular health in Mexicans
BACKGROUND: Evolving migration patterns between the USA and Mexico may alter the traditional health advantages associated with Mexican immigrants in the USA. This study examines the relationship between migration status and health, comparing Mexican-origin individuals residing in the USA and Mexico. METHODS: We conducted a binational, population-based, cross-sectional analysis using the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (2008-2011)…
Diabetes and Hypertension Risk Across Acculturation and Education Levels in Hispanic/Latino Adults
In this cohort study, the association of acculturation with health outcomes is not unidirectional and interacts with educational attainment in determining incident diabetes and hypertension. The Hispanic and Latino paradox, in which immigrants have a health advantage, is influenced by more factors than acculturation and may persist with higher educational attainment. These observations may inform prevention and treatment strategies associated wit…
Long-chain Pufa and painful temporomandibular disorder in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos
Objective: n -6 and n -3 long-chain PUFA play opposing roles in inflammation, anxiety and nociception, all of which are closely associated with chronic pain. We hypothesised that diets high in n -6 arachidonic acid (C20:4 n -6, AA) and low in combined n -3 EPA (C20:5 n -3, EPA) and DHA (C22:6 n -3, DHA) would be associated with higher odds of painful temporomandibular disorder (TMD). Design: We analysed baseline data from the Hispanic Community H…
Who Turns to God, and How? Religious and Spiritual Identity Differentially Predict Religious Coping Strategy Use in the Study on Stress, Spirituality, and Health
Intracranial Volume Is Driven by Both Genetics and Early Life Exposures
Intracranial volume (ICV) reflects maximal brain development and is associated with later-life cognitive abilities. We quantified ICV among first- and second-generation Hispanic and Latino adults from the Study of Latinos-Investigation of Cognitive Aging - MRI (SOL-INCA-MRI), estimated ICV heritability, and tested its associations with previously reported genetic variants, both individually and as a genetic risk score (GRS). We also estimated the…
Association of Acculturation and Hispanic/Latino Background with Endogenous Sex and Thyroid-Related Hormones Among Middle-Aged and Older Hispanic/Latino Adults
Economic and Psychosocial Impact of Covid-19 in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos
Objectives: To examine the prevalence and correlates of economic hardship and psychosocial distress experienced during the initial phase of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in a large cohort of Hispanic/Latino adults. Methods: =11,283). We estimated the prevalence of these experiences during the initial phase of the pandemic (May 2020 to May 2021) and examined the prepandemic factors associated with pandemic-related economic hards…

Micro-scale pedestrian streetscapes and physical activity in Hispanic/Latino adults
We examined associations of micro-scale environment attributes (e.g., sidewalks, street crossings) with three physical activity (PA) measures among Hispanic/Latino adults (n = 1776) living in San Diego County, CA. Systematic observation was used to quantify micro-scale environment attributes near each participant's home. Total PA was assessed with accelerometers, and PA for transportation and recreation were assessed by validated self-report. Alt…
Accelerometer-Measured Latent Physical Activity Profiles and Neurocognition Among Middle-Aged and Older Hispanic/Latino Adults in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL)
We found no consistent evidence to link accelerometry-measured MVPA profiles to neurocognitive function. Research to better characterize the role of high occupational MVPA in relation to neurocognition among Hispanic/Latino adults are needed
Diet quality comparisons in Hispanic/Latino siblings
Demographic and sociocultural risk factors for adulthood weight gain in Hispanic/Latinos
Using self-reported and weight history data in a diverse sample of US Hispanic/Latinos, we revealed that both demographic and sociocultural factors were associated with the patterning of adulthood weight gain in this sample. Given the steep rate of weight gain in this population and the fact that many Hispanic/Latinos living in the US immigrated as adults, efforts to promote weight maintenance across the life course, including after immigration, …
Pre-pregnancy Health Behaviors and Gestational Weight Gain Among Hispanic/Latino Women
Consent for Use of Genetic Data among US Hispanics/Latinos
Inclusion of historically underrepresented populations in biomedical research is critical for large precision medicine research initiatives. Among 13,721 Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL) enrollees, we used multivariable-adjusted prevalence ratios to describe characteristics associated with participants' willingness to consent to different levels of biospecimen and genetic data analysis and sharing. At baseline (2008-201…
Association between egg intake and blood pressure in the USA
Objectives: To investigate associations of egg intake with blood pressure (BP) and the role of dietary variables and other macro- and micro-nutrients in the association. Design: We used cross-sectional data for the USA as part of the INTERnational study on MAcro/micronutrients and blood Pressure (INTERMAP). INTERMAP was surveyed between 1996 and 1999, including four 24-h dietary recalls, two 24-h urine collections and eight measurements of systol…

The Study on Stress, Spirituality, and Health (SSSH)
This paper describes the development and initial psychometric testing of the baseline Spirituality Survey (SS-1) from the Study on Stress, Spirituality, and Health (SSSH). The SS-1 contains a mixture of items selected from validated existing scales and new items generated to measure important constructs not captured by existing instruments, and our purpose here was to establish the validity of new and existing measures in a racially/ethnically di…
Religion and Spirituality among American Indian, South Asian, Black, Hispanic/Latina, and White Women in the Study on Stress, Spirituality, and Health
Social scientists have increasingly recognized the lack of diversity in survey research on American religion, resulting in a dearth of data on religion and spirituality (R/S) in understudied racial and ethnic groups. At the same time, epidemiological studies have increasingly diversified their racial and ethnic representation, but have collected few R/S measures to date. With a particular focus on American Indian and South Asian women (in additio…
