Title = {Social Relationships, Wealth, and Cardiometabolic Risk:
Evidence from a National Longitudinal Study of U.S. Older
Adults.},
Journal = {J Aging Health},
Volume = {34},

Pages = {1048-1061},
Year = {2022},
Month = {October},
Abstract = {Objectives: To investigate multiple dimensions of social
relationships related to biomarkers of cardiometabolic
health and how their associations vary by wealth in older
adults. Methods: Growth curve models were used to
investigate the longitudinal associations between measures
of both positive and negative social relationships and
cardiometabolic risk (CMR) over a 10-year period from 2006
to 2016 and the moderation of this association by wealth in
the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). Results: Older adults
with better social relationships had lower CMR on average.
The protective effects of positive social relationships,
however, waned at older ages, particularly for low-wealth
individuals. Discussion: Our results suggest that good
social relationships promote healthy aging by buffering
against harmful cardiometabolic consequences of psychosocial
stress, particularly among relatively wealthy individuals.
Efforts to improve old age health would be more effective
when focusing simultaneously on fostering social connections
and boosting financial resources.},

health-related behaviors.},
Journal = {Health Psychol},
Volume = {41},
Number = {5},
Pages = {319-331},
Year = {2022},
Month = {May},
Abstract = {OBJECTIVE: This article comprehensively examines the
relationship between interpersonal discrimination (IPD) and
health-related behavior (HB), expanding upon Pascoe and
Richman's (2009) meta-analysis and research synthesis.
METHOD: One hundred and twenty one articles providing
zero-order correlations (or information allowing their
calculation) between perceptions of IPD and a variety of HB
outcomes were coded and analyzed using a random-effects
meta-analysis model. One hundred and fifty six articles
examining this relationship using multivariate models were
also coded and summarized within a research synthesis.
Subanalyses were performed for articles examining smoking,
alcohol use/abuse, substance use/abuse, sexual risk, and
diet/eating behaviors. Potential mediators of the IPD-HB
relationship were also tallied when available. RESULTS:
Compared to the original analysis, results suggest an
overall attenuated but stable relationship between IPD and
HBs. CONCLUSIONS: The documented meta-analytic associations
between perceptions of IPD and a variety of HB provide
supportive evidence for one pathway through which IPD
heightens risk for negative physical health outcomes among
marginalized groups. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA,

Title = {Defining gentrification for epidemiologic research: A
systematic review.},
Journal = {PLoS One},
Volume = {15},
Number = {5},
Pages = {e0233361},
Year = {2020},
Abstract = {Neighborhoods have a profound impact on individual health.
There is growing interest in the role of dynamic changes to
neighborhoods-including gentrification-on the health of
residents. However, research on the association between
gentrification and health is limited, partly due to the
numerous definitions used to define gentrification. This
article presents a systematic review of the current state of
literature describing the association between gentrification
and health. In addition, it provides a novel framework for
addressing important next steps in this research. A total of
1393 unique articles were identified, 122 abstracts were
reviewed, and 36 articles published from 2007-2020 were
included. Of the 36 articles, 9 were qualitative, 24 were
quantitative, and 3 were review papers. There was no
universally accepted definition of gentrification;
definitions often used socioeconomic variables describing
demographics, housing, education, and income. Health
outcomes associated with gentrification included
self-reported health, preterm birth, mental health
conditions, alcohol use, psychosocial factors, and health
care utilization, though the direction of this association
varied. The results of this review also suggest that the
impact of gentrification on health is not uniform across
populations. For example, marginalized populations, such as
Black residents and the elderly, were impacted more than
White and younger residents. In addition, we identified
multiples gaps in the research, including the need for a
conceptual model, future mechanistic studies, and
interventions.},

Title = {Quantifying intersectionality: An important advancement for
health inequality research.},
Journal = {Soc Sci Med},
Volume = {226},
Pages = {246-248},
Year = {2019},
Month = {April},
Abstract = {BACKGROUND: Intersectionality is a powerful theoretical
framework that is useful in describing the lived experiences
of people with multiple marginalized statuses. By focusing
on power and domination (e.g., racism, sexism), and the ways
in which they are inextricably linked and mutually
constructing, researchers can better understand experiences
of all people, not just those with one or more master
statuses. This framework is valuable in understanding how
discrimination relates to health and in attempts to reduce
health disparities. RATIONALE: Population health researchers
have only recently begun to consider intersectionality in
their theories and measurement (Bowleg, 2012), and have been
hindered by the challenges of measuring and analyzing
experiences of discrimination in intersectional ways. We
need new methodological strategies to enable empirical
research to catch up with theoretical advances. CONCLUSIONS:
The pair of articles in this issue by Scheim and Bauer
(2019), and Bauer and Scheim (2019), offer important new
data collection instruments and data analytic strategies to
advance our ability to measure discrimination
intersectionally. When using these new tools, it is
important to not lose track of the origins and historical
underpinnings of intersectionality and to focus on the
transformative goal of intersectionality to eradicate
inequality.},

Pathways.},
Journal = {Contemp Educ Psychol},
Volume = {53},
Pages = {181-195},
Year = {2018},
Month = {April},
Abstract = {The current study reports on the efficacy of a multi-faceted
motivationally designed undergraduate enrichment summer
program for supporting science, technology, engineering and
math (STEM) persistence. Structural equation modeling was
used to compare summer program participants (n = 186), who
participated in the program between their first and second
years in college, to a propensity score matched comparison
sample (n = 401). Participation in the summer program
positively predicted science motivation (self-efficacy, task
value), assessed eight months after the end of the program
(second year in college). The summer enrichment program was
also beneficial for science persistence variables, as
evidenced by significant direct and indirect effects of the
program on science course completion during students' third
year of college and students' intentions to pursue a science
research career assessed during the third year of college.
In general, the program was equally beneficial for all
participants, but ancillary analyses indicated added
benefits with respect to task value for students with
relatively lower prior science achievement during the first
year of college and with respect to subsequent science
course taking for males. Implications for developing
effective interventions to reduce the flow of individuals
out of STEM fields and for translating motivational theory
into practice are discussed.},

Volume = {41},

Pages = {195-207},
Year = {2018},
Month = {April},
Abstract = {Affirming one's racial identity may help protect against the
harmful effects of racial exclusion on substance use
cognitions. This study examined whether racial versus
self-affirmation (vs. no affirmation) buffers against the
effects of racial exclusion on substance use willingness and
substance use word associations in Black young adults. It
also examined anger as a potential mediator of these
effects. After being included, or racially excluded by White
peers, participants were assigned to a writing task:
self-affirmation, racial-affirmation, or describing their
sleep routine (neutral). Racial exclusion predicted greater
perceived discrimination and anger. Excluded participants
who engaged in racial-affirmation reported reduced perceived
discrimination, anger, and fewer substance use cognitions
compared to the neutral writing group. This relation between
racial-affirmation and lower substance use willingness was
mediated by reduced perceived discrimination and anger.
Findings suggest racial-affirmation is protective against
racial exclusion and, more generally, that ethnic based
approaches to minority substance use prevention may have
particular potential.},

Abstract = {Interpersonal discrimination contributes to health
inequalities for disadvantaged groups across numerous
stigmatized identities. This effect has been found using
cross-sectional, prospective, and experimental designs.
Interpersonal discrimination has been associated with poor
health across a wide range of mental health outcomes,
including greater rates of depression, psychological
distress, anxiety, and negative well-being, and also
physical health outcomes such as hypertension, diabetes,
respiratory problems, selfreported ill health, low birth
weight, and cardiovascular disease. This chapter examines
the relationship between interpersonal discrimination and
health. It first reviews the literature, focusing on current
best measurement practices, and then provides support for
the theoretical model of the pathways by which interpersonal
discrimination impacts health outcomes. The chapter then
presents an updated meta-analysis that further supports the
model and expands on types of discrimination and outcomes.
It concludes with a discussion of directions for future
research.},

mental illness (PWMI), the relationship between internalized
stigma and self-silencing was mediated by avoidant-oriented
friendship goals. In Study 2, experimentally making
stigmatized identity salient increased the endorsement of
avoidant-oriented friendship goals, particularly for people
relatively high in concealment. Collectively, these studies
highlight a social dilemma encountered by PWMI; what may be
adaptive regulatory responses to stigmatization can motivate
behavior that has negative effects in close
relationships.},

Abstract = {After people experience social rejection, one tactic to
restore a sense of belonging is to selectively attend to and
readily perceive cues that connote acceptance. The
multimotive model of responses to rejection suggests that
contextual features of the rejection are important
determinants of how people are motivated to respond.
According to this model, when rejection is construed as
pervasive and chronic, people will be less likely to adopt
strategies that promote belonging. Across two studies, we
found that chronic rejection—in the context of
stigmatization—predicted a slower response time to smiling
faces and less recognition of affiliation-related words as
compared to a nonstigmatized control group. These results
suggest that, unlike more transitory forms of rejection,
stigmatization leads to slower detection of signs of
acceptance. These responses may hinder belonging repair and
thus have important negative implications for health and
well-being.},

Year = {2016},
Abstract = {Perceived discrimination is associated with increased
engagement in unhealthy behaviors. We propose an
identity-based pathway to explain this link. Drawing on an
identity-based motivation model of health behaviors
(Oyserman, Fryberg, & Yoder, 2007), we propose that
erceptions of discrimination lead individuals to engage in
ingroup-prototypical behaviors in the service of validating
their identity and creating a sense of ingroup belonging. To
the extent that people perceive unhealthy behaviors as
ingroup-prototypical, perceived discrimination may thus
increase motivation to engage in unhealthy behaviors. We
describe our theoretical model and two studies that
demonstrate initial support for some paths in this model. In
Study 1, African American participants who reflected on
racial discrimination were more likely to endorse unhealthy
ingroup-prototypical behavior as self-characteristic than
those who reflected on a neutral event. In Study 2, among
African American participants who perceived unhealthy
behaviors to be ingroup-prototypical, discrimination
predicted greater endorsement of unhealthy behaviors as
self-characteristic as compared to a control condition.
These effects held both with and without controlling for
body mass index (BMI) and income. Broader implications of
this model for how discrimination adversely affects
health-related decisions are discussed.},

Abstract = {Heteronormativity is the presumption of heterosexuality as
the default sexual orientation and can result in
discrimination against the lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB)
population. This study serves as one of the first
experimental studies to examine heteronormative perceptions
in communication and their effects on practitioner-patient
relationships. LGB participants were randomly assigned to
read either heteronormative or non-heteronormative vignettes
of a doctor-patient interaction. They then indicated how
much health-relevant information they would disclose to the
doctor in the vignette and their level of trust in the
doctor. In the heteronormative condition, participants were
less likely to disclose health-relevant information to the
doctor in the vignette and were less trustful of the doctor
as compared to those in the non-heteronormative condition.
These results have important health implications, as lack of
disclosure and trust may prevent people from getting needed
care and prevent doctors from giving the best health advice
possible. The results of this study provide further evidence
that there is a need for more education for all health care
professionals to feel comfortable while respectfully
communicating with and treating patients who do not identify
as heterosexual in order to ensure the best health care
experience.},

Additionally, program participants who decided to major in

interpersonal discrimination primarily concerns
discrimination that is perceived and directly experienced

societal factors (e.g., institutional policies, social

study that rely on several types of research designs, which
indicate that both forms of stigma and discrimination
demonstrably contribute to health inequalities for
disadvantaged groups such as racial and ethnic minorities
and lesbian, gay, and bisexual populations. These adverse
health outcomes range from maladaptive physiological stress
responses in a laboratory setting to premature mortality at
a population level. The science on stigma and discrimination
applies to policy issues in education, same-sex marriage,
and health care delivery. Some current policies increase the
experience of stigma. We argue that more holistic social
policies can recognize the psychosocial factors that
contribute to well-being, thereby reducing social
inequalities in health.},

experience discrimination, they are more likely to engage in
behaviors that pose risks for health, such as overeating and
substance use. However, a large body of literature also
finds that low power - which is also a chronic, though often
more subtle, experience for stigmatized groups - is
associated with a heightened activation of inhibitory
processes. This inhibition system has wide-ranging
influences on cognition, behavior, and affect. We provide an
overview of these two literatures, examine synergies, and
propose potential implications for measurement and research

Abstract = {Here we examine the effects of both self-reported and
independent observer-reported environmental risk indices,
the serotonin transporter gene promoter (5HTTLPR)
polymorphism, and their interaction on self-esteem. This
trait was assessed during early and mid adolescence (mean
age=14 and 16.5, respectively) and young adulthood (mean
age=21.8) in a prospective cohort of 1214 unrelated
participants in the Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health
(Add Health). Using structural equation modeling we
identified a gene-environment (G×E) interaction using
observer-report but not self-report measures of
environmental stress exposure during adolescence: 5HTTLPR
genotype and observer-reports of home and neighborhood
quality (HNQ) during adolescence interacted to predict
self-esteem levels in young adulthood (p<.004). Carriers of
the s allele who lived in poor HNQ conditions during
adolescence reported lower self-esteem in young adulthood
than those with a good HNQ during adolescence. In contrast,
among individuals with the l/l genotype, adolescent HNQ did
not predict adulthood self-esteem. Genes may moderate the
effect of adolescent environmental conditions on adulthood
self-esteem.},

negative responding to social identity threat. Implications
are discussed for understanding resilience to social

Abstract = {This research examined effects of discrimination on food
decisions. In Study 1, reflecting upon past experiences of
discrimination, as compared to a neutral topic, caused an
increased desire to consume unhealthy foods. In Study 2,
participants received a negative evaluation from a biased or
fair grader. Past experiences with discrimination moderated
how people responded to the feedback. Those participants who
had infrequent past experiences with discrimination were
most likely to endorse unhealthy food options after
receiving the biased evaluation. Those who scored high on
past discrimination were unaffected by experimental
condition and endorsed similar numbers of healthy and
unhealthy food options after receiving the evaluative
feedback. When offered an actual snack, those who accepted
one were more likely to choose an unhealthy option following
discrimination, regardless of past discrimination level.
These results suggest that discrimination may be affecting
self-regulatory capacity in regard to food choices. © 2010

Abstract = {OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the effect of perceived
discrimination, optimism, and their interaction on health
care utilization among African American adults with sickle
cell disease (SCD). METHODS: Measures of optimism and
perceived discrimination were obtained in 49 African
American SCD patients. Multiple regression analyses
controlling for sex and age tested effects of optimism and
perceived discrimination on the number of emergency
department visits (ED) and number and duration of
hospitalizations over the past year. RESULTS: A perceived
discrimination-optimism interaction was associated with
number of emergency departments visits (b = .29, p = .052),
number of hospitalizations (b = .36, p = .019), and duration
of hospitalizations (b = .30, p = .045) such that those with
high perceived discrimination/high optimism had the greatest
health care utilization. CONCLUSIONS: African American SCD
patients with high perceived discrimination/high optimism
had greater health care utilization than patients who
reported either low perceived discrimination or low
optimism. This study suggests that patient personality and
coping styles should be considered when evaluating the
effects of stress on SCD-related outcomes.},

Abstract = {Past measurement of vitality has included both emotional and
physical components. Since aspects of physical vitality such
as fatigue can be indicative of physical illness, the
usefulness of existing measures of vitality to predict
health is limited. This research was designed to examine the
psychometric properties of a new Mental Vitality Scale and
to test its associations with measures of cardiovascular
health over the course of 2 years. The measure of mental
vitality was administered in a two-part study using three
different samples. In part 1, the reliability and validity
of the scale was assessed with a student and a clinic
sample. In part 2, medical data on mental and physical
health were abstracted over a two-year period from 1041
patient records from a multi-specialty medical practice, and
mental vitality assessed through a mailed questionnaire. The
findings indicate that the Mental Vitality Scale is a valid
and reliable questionnaire for measuring this construct.
Mental vitality was also associated with reduced odds of
several cardiovascular outcomes and prospective analyses
suggest that mental vitality may serve a protective function
in the development of cardiovascular disease. The results
lend support for the importance of mental vitality as a
construct that may be relevant for considering resilience in
relation to cardiovascular disease.},

Abstract = {This article describes a new model that provides a framework
for understanding people's reactions to threats to social
acceptance and belonging as they occur in the context of
diverse phenomena such as rejection, discrimination,
ostracism, betrayal, and stigmatization. People's immediate
reactions are quite similar across different forms of
rejection in terms of negative affect and lowered
self-esteem. However, following these immediate responses,
people's reactions are influenced by construals of the
rejection experience that predict 3 distinct motives for
prosocial, antisocial, and socially avoidant behavioral
responses. The authors describe the relational, contextual,
and dispositional factors that affect which motives
determine people's reactions to a rejection experience and
the ways in which these 3 motives may work at
cross-purposes. The multimotive model accounts for the
myriad ways in which responses to rejection unfold over time
and offers a basis for the next generation of research on
interpersonal rejection.},

of effects was similar for both racial groups, but Blacks
had more acute reactivity and slower recovery than Whites.
These results are consistent with the perspective of

Abstract = {OBJECTIVE: It is unclear why nonmental healthcare
utilization is greater among those with psychological
problems. The authors examined healthcare utilization in HMO
patients to determine whether greater utilization in anxiety
disorder (AD) patients was explained by anxiety symptoms
(increasing sensitivity to physical symptoms) or comorbid
illness (causing greater need for services). DESIGN:
Patients were randomly selected from the database of a
multi-specialty practice and 1,041 completed a survey
assessing psychological symptoms, health behaviors, and
demographics. Anxiety symptoms were assessed by
questionnaire and the presence of an AD was determined from
the medical chart. Healthcare encounters and medication use
were abstracted from medical charts and HMO claims data.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Healthcare utilization. RESULTS: Both
AD and anxiety symptoms predicted utilization, but symptoms
were not associated with utilization in a model that also
included AD. Comorbid illness was significantly associated
with utilization independent of AD and somewhat reduced the
strength of the AD-utilization association. The results were
replicated in comparison of those with any psychiatric
disorder to those without. CONCLUSION: Among those with AD,
greater utilization is not explained by anxiety symptoms but
is partly explained by greater comorbid illness. Further
study is needed to understand excess healthcare utilization
among AD patients.},

Abstract = {In these studies the authors examined the effects of
concealing a stigma in a social interaction relevant to the
stigma. An interview paradigm called for undergraduate
female participants who either did or did not have eating
disordered characteristics to play the role of someone who
did or did not have an eating disorder (ED) while answering
stigma-relevant questions. The data suggest that the
participants who concealed their stigmas become preoccupied
with the control of stigma-relevant thoughts. In Study 1,
participants with an ED who role-played not having an ED
exhibited more secrecy, suppression, and intrusive thoughts
of their ED and more projection of ED-related thoughts onto
the interviewer than did those with an ED who role-played
someone with an ED or those without an ED who role-played
someone without an ED. This finding was replicated in Study
2, and the authors found both increasing accessibility of
ED-related words among those participants with concealed
stigmas during the interview and high levels of
accessibility following the interview.},

Abstract = {Deep cognitive activation occurs when a thought is so
accessible as to have measurable effects on behavior or
judgement, but is yet not consciously reportable. This state
of mind has unique properties mimicking some characteristics
of the psychoanalytic unconscious, but following
theoretically from a consideration of processes of cognitive
activation. The sources and consequences of deep cognitive
activation are examined, with a view toward understanding
how this state is implicated in the assessment, etiology,
and treatment of psychopathology.},

Title = {Relation of threatened egotism to violence and aggression:
the dark side of high self-esteem.},
Journal = {Psychol Rev},
Volume = {103},
Number = {1},
Pages = {5-33},
Year = {1996},
Month = {January},
Abstract = {Conventional wisdom has regarded low self-esteem as an
important cause of violence, but the opposite view is
theoretically viable. An interdisciplinary review of
evidence about aggression, crime, and violence contradicted
the view that low self-esteem is an important cause.
Instead, violence appears to be most commonly a result of
threatened egotism--that is, highly favorable views of self
that are disputed by some person or circumstance. Inflated,
unstable, or tentative beliefs in the self's superiority may
be most prone to encountering threats and hence to causing
violence. The mediating process may involve directing anger
outward as a way of avoiding a downward revision of the
self-concept.},
