  • alcohol disorders among asian americans associations with unfair treatment racial Ethnic discrimination and Ethnic Identification the national latino and asian americans study 2002 2003
    Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, 2008
    Co-Authors: David H. Chae, Elizabeth M Barbeau, David T Takeuchi, Gary G Bennett, Jane C. Lindsey, Anne M Stoddard, Nancy Krieger
    Abstract:

    Study objective: To examine history of alcohol abuse/dependence disorder in relation to unfair treatment, racial/Ethnic discrimination, and Ethnic Identification among Asian Americans. Design: Weighted multivariate analyses of cross-sectional national survey data predicting lifetime history of alcohol abuse/dependence disorders. Setting: USA, Asian Americans. Participants: 2007 Asian American adults recruited to the National Latino and Asian American Study (NLAAS; 2002–2003). Results: Controlling for sociodemographic characteristics, Asian Americans who reported experiencing unfair treatment had higher odds of history of alcohol abuse/dependence disorder (OR 5.26, 95% CI 1.90 to 14.56). Participants who reported high levels of Ethnic Identification had lower odds of history of alcohol abuse/dependence disorders (OR 0.46, 95% CI 0.23 to 0.90). Ethnic Identification moderated the influence of racial/Ethnic discrimination (p  =  0.097). Among participants with low levels of Ethnic Identification, racial/Ethnic discrimination was associated with greater odds of having a history of alcohol disorder compared with those with high levels of Ethnic Identification. Conclusions: Social hazards such as unfair treatment and racial/Ethnic discrimination should be considered in the development of programmes addressing alcohol disorders among Asian Americans. Interventions that promote Ethnic Identification in this population may be particularly relevant in mitigating the negative influence of racial/Ethnic discrimination on alcohol disorders.

  • unfair treatment racial Ethnic discrimination Ethnic Identification and smoking among asian americans in the national latino and asian american study
    American Journal of Public Health, 2008
    Co-Authors: David H. Chae, Elizabeth M Barbeau, David T Takeuchi, Gary G Bennett, Jane C. Lindsey, Nancy Krieger
    Abstract:

    OBJECTIVES: We examined the relations of self-report of general unfair treatment and self-report of race/Ethnicity-specific discrimination with current smoking among Asian Americans. We investigated whether Ethnic Identification moderated either association. METHODS: Weighted logistic regressions were performed among 1977 Asian Americans recruited to the National Latino and Asian American Study (2002-2003). RESULTS: In weighted multivariate logistic regression models including both general unfair treatment and racial/Ethnic discrimination, odds of current smoking were higher among Asian Americans who reported high levels of unfair treatment (odds ratio [OR]=2.80; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.13, 6.95) and high levels of racial/Ethnic discrimination (OR=2.40; 95% CI=0.94, 6.12) compared with those who reported no unfair treatment and discrimination, respectively. High levels of Ethnic Identification moderated racial/Ethnic discrimination (F(3) =3.25; P =.03). High levels of Ethnic Identification were associated with lower probability of current smoking among participants reporting high levels of racial/Ethnic discrimination. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that experiences of unfair treatment and racial/Ethnic discrimination are risk factors for smoking among Asian Americans. Efforts to promote Ethnic Identification may be effective in mitigating the influence of racial/Ethnic discrimination on smoking in this population.

  • effects of hispanic Ethnic Identification on marital roles in the purchase decision process
    Journal of Consumer Research, 1994
    Co-Authors: Cynthia Webster
    Abstract:

    The research reported in this article investigated the relationship between Hispanic Ethnic Identification and marital roles as couples proceed through the purchase decision process. Significant differences were found among the Hispanic Ethnic Identification groups in most of the decision stages for a variety of product categories, even after the effects of social class and length of marriage were removed. The findings of this study revealed a significant positive relationship between Ethnic Identification and husband dominance in decision making. However, because Ethnic Identification and product class interact with role specialization and relative influence in decision making, generalizations cannot be made about Hispanic marital roles in the decision-making process. Furthermore, the effect of Ethnic Identification on marital roles in decision making interacts with the phase of the purchase decision process. Copyright 1994 by the University of Chicago.
