研究背景通过毛发皮质醇测量慢性生理应激的研究在青少年和成年人的社区样本中迅速扩大。然而，在这方面，尽管无家可归青年的不良暴露风险增加，随后心理健康受损，但研究无家可归青年的生理压力的研究尚处于起步阶段。本文旨在研究收集毛发用于测量不同无家可归青年中皮质醇的可行性，并了解参与的变化。方法分析三项青年试点研究的调查和毛发参与数据无家可归的经历。调查指标包括社会人口学特征（年龄、种族和民族、出生性别和性取向）和不参与的原因。描述性分析研究参与率在头发收集皮质醇测量，包括社会人口学差异participation.ResultsParticipation是高的合并样本（88.4%），在头发采样皮质醇，在三个试点研究的一些变化。没有足够的毛发用于修剪是不参与的最常见原因;黑人和多种族青年，以及男性青年，有较高的患病率nonparticipation.DiscussionThe收集头发皮质醇研究青年经历无家可归是可行的，和整合的生理措施的压力到研究与这个弱势群体应考虑，因为他们很容易陷入困境，并因自杀和吸毒过量而死亡。方法上的考虑和潜在的研究途径进行了讨论。
BackgroundInvestigations of chronic physiological stress measured by hair cortisol are rapidly expanding among community samples of adolescents and adults. However, research examining physiological stress among youth experiencing homelessness is nascent despite the youth’s increased risk for adverse exposures and subsequent impaired mental health.ObjectiveThis article aimed to examine the feasibility of collecting hair for measuring cortisol among diverse youth experiencing homelessness and gain an understanding of variation in participation.MethodsAnalysis of survey and hair participation data from three pilot studies among youth experiencing homelessness was conducted. Survey measures included sociodemographic characteristics (age, race and ethnicity, sex assigned at birth, and sexual orientation) and reasons for nonparticipation. Descriptive analysis examined participation rates in hair collection for cortisol measurement, including sociodemographic differences in participation.ResultsParticipation in the hair sampling for cortisol was high for the combined sample (88.4%), with some variation across the three pilot studies. Insufficient hair for cutting was the most common reason for not participating; Black and multiracial youth, as well as male youth, had a higher prevalence of nonparticipation.DiscussionThe collection of hair for cortisol research among youth experiencing homelessness is feasible, and integration of physiological measures of stress into research with this vulnerable population should be considered, given their high risk for adversity and death by suicide and drug overdose. Methodological considerations and avenues for potential research are discussed.
