种族歧视是非裔美国人生活经历的一部分,人们普遍发现它对他们的身心健康有破坏性后果;然而,我们对浪漫伴侣如何影响种族歧视对健康结果的影响程度知之甚少。使用一个二元的方法与异性恋的非洲裔美国人夫妇(N = 487),目前的研究探讨了补偿和压力缓冲效应的种族主义特定的支持(RSS)从合作伙伴之间的关联种族歧视和一个人的自己和一个人的合作伙伴的自我报告的精神,身体和一般健康。我们发现,从合作伙伴的RSS的看法与更好的精神和身体健康的丈夫和更好的身体和一般健康的妻子,独立的影响,他们自己和他们的合作伙伴的种族歧视。然而,当丈夫感知到高水平的RSS时,妻子的心理健康状况就会受到影响。此外,在报告伴侣RSS水平较低的妻子中,妻子和丈夫的种族歧视经历与妻子的心理健康水平降低有关。这些研究结果表明,对非裔美国人的夫妇一级干预措施应特别注意可能承担自己和丈夫种族歧视经历的妻子。
Racial discrimination is a part of the lived experience for African Americans, and it is widely found to have damaging consequences to their mental and physical health; yet, we know less about how romantic partners influence the degree to which racial discrimination can impinge on health outcomes. Using a dyadic approach with heterosexual African American couples (N = 487), the current study examined the compensatory and stress-buffering effects of racism-specific support (RSS) from the partner on the associations between racial discrimination and one’s own and one’s partner’s self-reported mental, physical, and general health. We found that perceptions of RSS from the partner were associated with better mental and physical health for husbands and better physical and general health for wives, independent of the effects of their own and their partner’s racial discrimination. However, wives showed compromised mental health when their husbands perceived high levels of RSS. Furthermore, among wives who reported low levels of RSS from their partner, wives’ and husbands’ experiences of racial discrimination were associated with wives’ lowered mental health. These findings suggest that couple-level interventions for African Americans should pay specific attention to wives who may carry the burden of their own and their husbands’ experiences of racial discrimination.
