本研究的目的是探讨1054名美国中年妇女移民过渡与抑郁症状之间的关系。这是对两项全国互联网调查研究数据的二次分析。采用背景特征、移民转型问题和中年妇女抑郁指数问卷进行数据收集。采用多元回归的推理统计方法对数据进行分析。与非移民相比，移民报告的人数较少，症状也较轻（p < 0.01）。在控制背景特征后，自我报告的种族/民族认同和移民身份是抑郁症状的显著预测因子（R2= 0.01, p< 0.05）。
Our purpose of this study was to explore the relationships between immigration transition and depressive symptoms among 1,054 midlife women in the U.S. This was a secondary analysis of the data from two national Internet survey studies. Questions on background characteristics and immigration transition and the Depression Index for Midlife Women were used to collect the data. The data were analyzed using inferential statistics including multiple regressions. Immigrants reported lower numbers of and less severe symptoms than non-immigrants (p < .01). When controlling for background characteristics, self-reported racial/ethnic identity and immigration status were significant predictors of depressive symptoms (R2=.01, p<.05).
