Psychometric testing of the Multidimensional Acculturative Stress Inventory among Asian Americans
This is a report of psychometric testing of the modified Multidimensional Acculturative Stress inventory (MASI) on Asian Americans. The MASI, initially developed as a 36-item measure to assess acculturative stress within individuals of Mexican origin and other Latinos in the United States, was modified for use with Asian Americans. Acculturative stress is defined for this measure as a multifaceted construct comprising four factors: English compet…
Latent Profile Analysis of Acculturation and Associated Health Among Asian American Subgroups
Acculturation has been shown to be relevant to health outcomes. However, methodological limitations remain in the existing literature, particularly the lack of psychometric validation of acculturation measures for Asian American population. As a result, little is known about distinct acculturation profiles within this population and how these profiles relate to perceived stress and health. This study employs latent profile analysis (LPA) to ident…

Interpretation inaccuracies in pain communication between Hmong patients and clinicians in the USA
Effective pain communication between patients and providers is imperative in order for providers to understand how to properly manage pain. Limited English proficiency patients, who have to rely on interpreting services, experience poorer pain management than the general population. This study aims to explore the interactional features of pain communication that account for interpretation inaccuracies in consultations involving Hmong patients. We…

Ethnic discrimination, acculturative stress, and sexual risk among Latinx emerging adults
Examining the results within a culturally informed theoretical framework supports that protective factors may help mitigate sexual risk factors among Latinx emerging adults experiencing acculturative stress. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)
Technical Meets Traditional
INTRODUCTION: Ineffective intercultural communication can occur due to inaccurate medical interpreting for limited English proficiency (LEP) patients. Research shows that Hmong patients experience poorer quality interpreter services than other LEP populations. This study's purpose is to understand Hmong medical interpreters' perceptions of the factors that affect their ability to make accurate medical interpretations during clinical encounters. M…

“There Are so Many Nuances . . . ”
INTRODUCTION: While researchers have studied Hmong patients with limited English proficiency in pain communication, no research has examined primary care providers' (PCPs') interpretation of Hmong pain communication. This study examines PCPs' pain communication experience with Hmong patients. METHOD: A qualitative content analysis was conducted with PCPs. Interviews were audio recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using conventional content analysi…
Evaluating Culturally Tailored Strategies for Implementing Cognitive Interviewing on Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale Among Chinese Immigrant Women
INTRODUCTION: While the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) is a standard clinical screening tool for postpartum depression, it is unclear whether it is culturally appropriate for Chinese immigrant women in the United States. Cognitive interviewing (CI) is a method for evaluating a scale's cultural appropriateness. However, CI procedures are problematic with Chinese population. This study assesses three culturally tailored strategies for …
Completing Self-administered Questionnaires
This study describes a method for collecting data from nonliterate, non-English-speaking populations. Our audio computer-assisted self-interview instrument with color-labeled response categories was designed for use with helper assistance. The study included 30 dyads of nonliterate older Hmong respondents and family helpers answering questions about health. Analysis of video recordings identified respondents' problems and helpers' strategies to a…
Navigating Challenges of Medical Interpreting Standards and Expectations of Patients and Health Care Professionals
Although medical interpreters are guided by a clear set of medical interpreting standards that are designed to ensure an accurate, clear line of communication between patient and provider, limited research has focused on interpreters’ actual experiences: how they integrate the medical interpreting standards into practice, challenges they might face, how they address those challenges, and with what consequences. To address these gaps, we explored …
