焦虑敏感性是对焦虑相关感觉的恐惧，主观社会地位是相对于他人的社会地位的自我感知：这两个结构都与心理学有关。本研究调查了124名黑人成年人的焦虑敏感性和社会地位与焦虑和抑郁情绪表达的交互作用。参与者提供了社会人口统计数据，并完成了自我报告问卷。焦虑敏感性和社会地位之间的互动关系的焦虑和抑郁的焦虑进行了检查，分层线性回归调整社会人口统计学和负情感。焦虑敏感性和社会地位之间的显着相互作用是明显的，只有焦虑症状：具体来说，焦虑敏感性和焦虑症状之间的关联更强的个人与较低（相对较高）的主观社会地位。具有这种较高焦虑敏感性/较低社会地位表型的黑人成年人可能会增加表达焦虑症的风险，并可能受益于降低焦虑敏感性的干预措施。
Anxiety sensitivity is the fear of anxiety-related sensations and subjective social status is a self-perception of social standing relative to others: both constructs have been linked to psychological symptomatology. This study investigated the interactive effects of anxiety sensitivity and social status in relation to anxiety and depressive symptomatology expression among 124 black adults. Participants provided sociodemographics and completed self-report questionnaires. The interactive associations between anxiety sensitivity and social status on anxiety symptomatology and depressive symptomatology were examined with hierarchical linear regressions adjusted for sociodemographics and negative affectivity. Significant interactions between anxiety sensitivity and social status were evident only for anxiety symptoms: specifically, the association between anxiety sensitivity and anxiety symptoms was much stronger for individuals with lower (versus higher) subjective social status. Black adults with this higher anxiety sensitivity/lower social status phenotype may be at heightened risk for the expression of anxiety symptomatology, and may benefit from interventions to reduce anxiety sensitivity.
