学者们已经确定了基于种族的压力是一种独特的压力形式，并检查了相关的心理和身体健康结果，但对与基于种族的负面事件相关的情绪反应和伴随症状以及这些经历如何因种族群体成员，压力水平和/或基于种族的事件类型而有所不同知之甚少。本文探讨和比较了175名黑人和白色参与者在情绪和种族为基础的压力症状反应的差异，以负面的种族遭遇。多变量方差分析揭示了不同的模式的情绪和种族为基础的压力症状反应，种族之间的黑人和白色参与者的遭遇。在高水平的压力下，黑人和白色参与者经历了明显不同的基于种族的压力症状模式：白色参与者主要表现出侵入的症状，而黑人参与者经历了各种症状，包括抑郁，侵入，愤怒，过度警惕和身体症状。实践和研究的影响得到解决。
Scholars have identified race-based stress as a unique form of stress and have examined associated mental and physical health outcomes, yet less is known about the emotional responses and accompanying symptoms associated with negative race-based events and how these experiences differ by racial group membership, stress level, and/or race-based event type. This paper explores and compares the differences in emotional and race-based stress symptom reactions to negative racial encounters among 175 Black and White participants. Multivariate analysis of variance revealed different patterns of emotional and race-based stress symptom reactions to racial encounters among Black and White participants. At high levels of stress, Black and White participants experienced markedly different patterns of race-based stress symptoms: White participants primarily exhibited symptoms of intrusion, while Black participants experienced a variety of symptoms including depression, intrusion, anger, hypervigilance, and physical symptoms. Practice and research implications are addressed.
