Investigating the Relationship Between Disaster Preparedness Knowledge, Disaster Related Stress, and Post-Disaster Depression Among Students and Faculty in Higher Education
The worldwide prevalence of disasters exposes students, staff, and faculty at colleges and universities to multiple disasters, potentially impacting their mental health. This study investigates the influence of cumulative disaster-related stressors on depression among 1,497 higher education participants. Results from modified Poisson regression analyses reveal that individuals exposed to cumulative stressors (COVID-19 and Hurricane Sandy) have a …
Discomforting pedagogies and affective learning processes in diversity & social justice courses
Social work education prepares students to ethically engage historically stigmatized populations. The importance of including diversity in the social work curriculum and preparing culturally competent social workers has been established. However, little is known about how social work educators utilize the syllabus as a tool to prepare students to develop the stamina to attend to and cope with emotional reactions that may result from engaging in c…
The Relationship Between Subjective Social Status, Mental Health Disparities, and the Mediating Role of Discrimination Among Latinx Populations
Predicting intimate partner violence perpetration by Latino/a/e/x men in residential substance misuse treatment
Little is known about rates of IPV among Latino/a/e/x men in residential substance misuse treatment. Logistic regressions examined whether severity of substance use, mental health symptoms, and socioecological factors predicted IPV perpetration in 145 Latino/a/e/x men in treatment. Lifetime perpetration and victimization were 72.6% and 76.7%, respectively. Perpetration was negatively associated with self-esteem and positively associated with depr…
Gendered and racialized experiences of Caribbean Latinx women
This qualitative study explored the racialized experiences among eight self-identified Caribbean Latinas. Narratives derived from semi-structured interviews revealed their lived experiences and the impact, and negotiation of the everyday occurrences of racial microaggressions, invalidation of Latina identity, intragroup colorism, ascription of intelligence, exoticization and skin color privilege. The findings contribute to the social science lite…
How does transnationalism affect the perceptions of discrimination among Dominicans, Puerto Ricans and Cubans
Transnationalism provides first- and second-generation immigrants with a dual frame of reference that shapes perceptions of their experiences in the United States (USA). For Caribbean Latino/as, who are likely targets of racial and ethnic discrimination, transnational ties can impact their interpretations of discriminatory incidents. This study explores the relationship between transnationalism and perceptions of discriminatory experiences of 1,5…
Race and Skin Color in Latino Health
We examined 22 articles to compare Black Latinos/as’ with White Latinos/as’ health and highlight findings and limitations in the literature. We searched 1153 abstracts, from the earliest on record to those available in 2016. We organized the articles into domains grounded on a framework that incorporates the effects of race on Latinos/as’ health and well-being: health and well-being, immigration, psychosocial factors, and contextual factors. Most…
Web-Based Social Work Courses
Although web-based courses in schools of social work have proliferated over the past decade, the literature contains few guidelines on steps that schools can take to develop such courses. Using Knowles’s framework, which delineates tasks and themes involved in implementing e-learning in social work education, this article describes the cultivation of an online environment at one school of social work. We outline the steps and procedures used, as …
The effects of racial socialization on the racial and ethnic identity development of Latinas
The Color Paradigm
Existing research has provided scant analysis on the impact of colorism or skin color privilege and stigma on racial identity and identification among Latinos/as. This article explores the dynamics of colorism and the impact on racial identity and identification among Latinos/as of varying phenotypes. The experiences of a subset of eight Caribbean Latinas and one Chicana are used to illustrate how Latinas negotiate their racial identification and…
Exploring Differences in Family Involvement and Depressive Symptoms across Latino Adolescent Groups
This study investigated the association between family involvement and depressive symptoms among a sample of 187 Dominican, Mexican, and Central American adolescents from the Longitudinal Immigrant Student Adaptation Study. The study used the transactional stress model as its theoretical foundation. Findings from a multiple regression model suggest that low levels of family involvement were significantly related to higher levels of depressive sym…
How Discrimination and Stress Affects Self-Esteem Among Dominican Immigrant Women
Understanding the factors that contribute to the health disparities among racial and ethnic minorities in the United States is very important given the growing Latina population. Although researchers have investigated the health and mental health status among Latinas, the relationship between mental health and self-esteem has not been given a lot of attention. Given that self-esteem is a proxy for mental health status, investigations exploring th…
Discrimination and Acculturative Stress Among First-Generation Dominicans
The present study examined the relationship between discriminatory experiences and acculturative stress levels among a sample of 283 Dominican immigrants. Findings from a linear regression analysis revealed that experiences of daily racial discrimination and major racist events were significant predictors of acculturative stress after controlling for demographics, acculturation, and transnationalism. Findings from this study have implications for…
Discrimination, Stress, and Acculturation Among Dominican Immigrant Women
Researchers have well established the association between discriminatory experiences, life chances, and mental health outcomes among Latino/as, especially among Mexican Americans. However, few studies have focused on the impact of stress or the moderating effects of low acculturation levels among recent immigrants, such as Dominicans. Using the transactional stress model, the present community-based study examines the relationship between discrim…
