| My current research focuses on variation in Latino/a health and adjustment. In recent work, I provided evidence of a mental health gap across Colombian and Cuban adult immigrants in South Florida and investigated the mediating and moderating roles of acculturation and ethnic discrimination in the explication of this difference. In other work, I identified a differential effect of ethnic identity on later self-esteem across Nicaraguan and Cuban young adults. My current projects include an examination of the Hispanic health paradox among Mexican immigrants and an investigation into the long-term health consequences of context of reception across periods of Cuban migration.
