Objective: To examine the relationships among race/ethnicity, income, and asthma on mental health outcomes in individuals surveyed as part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2004 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). Racial and ethnic disparities in asthma prevalence exist, which may be explained in part by socioeconomic status. Individuals with asthma often have comorbid mental health conditions, the rates of which are also marked by significant racial and ethnic disparities. Methods: We obtained 2004 BRFSS demographic, asthma, and mental health data on Hispanics, non-Hispanic Whites, and non-Hispanic Blacks. Linear regression analysis was used to examine the main and interaction effects of race/ethnicity, income, and history of asthma on poor mental health (n = 282,011), as well as on depression (n = 14,907) and anxiety (n = 14,87 1) specifically. Results: A significant three-way interaction emerged among race/ethnicity, income, and history of chronic asthma on number of days of poor mental health. Among the most impoverished (income
