Acculturation is an important predictor of asthma in Latino youth, specifically, Mexican Americans. Less is known about acculturation and pulmonary function measures. To estimate the association of acculturation measures with asthma and pulmonary function in Latino youth and determine whether this association varies across Latino subgroups. We included 1,849 Latinos (302 Caribbean Spanish, 193 Central or South Americans, 1,136 Mexican Americans, 218 other Latino children) aged 8–21 years old from 4 urban regions in the U.S. Acculturation measures include nativity status, age of immigration, language of preference, and generation in the U.S. We used multivariable logistic and linear regression models to quantify the association of acculturation factors with the presence of asthma (case-control study) and pulmonary function (case-only study) adjusting for demographic, socio-environmental, and clinical variables. For all acculturation measures (nativity status, age of immigration, language of preference, and generation in the U.S.), higher levels of acculturation were associated with greater odds of asthma. Among cases, high (English preference) and medium (equal preference for Spanish and English) levels of language acculturation were associated with decreased bronchodilator response compared with low (Spanish preference) levels (p=0.009 and 0.02, respectively). Similarly, high language acculturation was associated with increased FEV1 compared with low language acculturation (p=0.02). There was insufficient evidence of heterogeneity for associations across Latino subgroups. Acculturation was associated with diagnosed asthma and pulmonary function in Latino children and is important factor to consider in the management of Latino youth with asthma. High acculturation increases likelihood of diagnosed asthma whereas low acculturation is associated with lower pulmonary function and increased bronchodilator response in Latinos; cultural and behavioral practices should be considered when determining risk and managing asthma.
