观察到的对负面社会和历史事件的代际压力反应是历史创伤理论的核心，该理论已应用于美洲原住民，非洲裔美国人和太平洋岛民等。生活在美国的墨西哥人口的历史和社会经历有许多相似之处，有助于将历史创伤理论应用于宏观和微观层面对获得医疗保健、身体健康状况和精神健康状况的影响，包括墨西哥裔美国人的药物滥用。本文通过历史创伤理论的潜在应用，强调了西班牙殖民主义和英美新殖民主义对美国西南部墨西哥人和墨裔美国人的影响。
The observed intergenerational stress response to negative social and historical events is at the core of historical trauma theory, which has been applied to Native Americans, African Americans, and Pacific Islanders, among others. The historical and social experiences of the Mexican population living in the United States have many parallels that lend themselves to the application of historical trauma theory to macro-level and micro-level influences on access to health care, physical health status, and mental health status, including substance abuse among Mexican Americans. This article highlights the legacy of Spanish colonialism and Anglo-American neo-colonialism on Mexicans and Mexican Americans in the southwestern United States through a potential application of historical trauma theory.
