PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The United States does not have sufficient science to mount an evidence-based response to combat the health detriments of present-day anti-Asian American (AA) hate. AA parents and children are struggling with a deeply troubling new sociopolitical context, a context with unprecedented levels of anti-Asian hate and violence fueled by references to COVID-19 as the “China virus.” Physical assaults against AAs skyrocketed by 145% in 2020 and have spiked to 164% in the first quarter of 2021. Among AA youth, 80% report being bullied or verbally harassed and 24% reported being shunned. Our evidence base for how racism impacts AA mental health under “normal” circumstances is insufficient and woefully inadequate. This R01 fills a critical gap in the science of how discrimination affects AA adolescent mental health, how adolescents respond to racial discrimination, and the agents involved in racial socialization processes involving AA adolescents. There are no longitudinal studies that investigate the effects of racial discrimination on AA adolescent mental health while also incorporating novel observational methods to determine how parents, peers, and social media are racial socializing AA adolescents. This project will follow 350 Chinese American adolescents (12-15 years), their Chinese heritage parent, and a peer to investigate the effects of discrimination experiences, discrimination responses, and racial socialization processes on adolescent mental health (depression, anxiety, suicidality) and on chronic stress (hair cortisol) over three timepoints. The long-term objective is to develop a biomedical evidence base focused on how parents, peers and social media can be leveraged to mitigate the negative health consequences of discrimination. Our multi-method approach (observation, survey, interview, biomarker) investigates the following aims: Aim 1. To assess how racial discrimination is associated with Chinese American adolescent (a) mental health (depression, anxiety, suicidality) and (b) biomarkers of chronic stress (hair cortisol) over three years. Aim 2. To determine how adolescent characteristics (internalization of the model minority myth, ethnic identity) moderate the association between discrimination and mental health/chronic stress. Aim 3. To (a) understand how parent characteristics (racial socialization, mental health, ethnic identity), moderate the association between adolescent discrimination and adolescent mental health/chronic stress (hair cortisol). We also consider “upwards socialization”; how adolescents are active agents in their own socialization and the socialization of those around them. Discrimination during adolescence has especially pernicious effects on concurrent and downstream adult health and understanding AA adolescent discrimination will help identify those at risk for problematic mental health. This study will inform urgently needed individual-, family- and peer-based interventions to address mental health for AA adolescents who are facing unprecedented risks to mental health at this time.

项目摘要/摘要 美国没有足够的科学来发起以证据为基础的应对措施来对抗健康 当今反亚裔美国人(AA)仇恨的危害。戒酒协会的父母和孩子们正在与一场深刻的 令人不安的新社会政治背景，一个反亚洲仇恨和暴力达到前所未有水平的背景 将新冠肺炎称为“中国病毒”。针对AAS的人身攻击在2020年猛增145% 并在2021年第一季度飙升至164%。在AA青少年中，80%的人报告受到欺凌或口头攻击 被骚扰的人和24%的人报告被避开。我们关于种族主义如何影响精神健康的证据 在“正常”情况下是不够的，而且是非常不充分的。这台R01填补了科学上的一个关键空白 歧视如何影响青少年心理健康，青少年如何应对种族歧视， 以及涉及再生障碍性贫血青少年的种族社会化过程的代理人。没有纵向的 调查种族歧视对再生障碍性贫血青少年心理健康影响的研究 结合新的观察方法来确定父母、同龄人和社交媒体的种族 社交戒酒互助会青少年。该项目将跟踪350名华裔美国青少年(12-15岁)，他们 中国传统父母，和一位同龄人一起调查歧视的影响经历，歧视 对青少年心理健康的反应和种族社会化进程(抑郁、焦虑、自杀) 以及三个时间点的慢性压力(头发皮质醇)。长期目标是开发一种生物医学 证据基础侧重于如何利用父母、同龄人和社交媒体来缓解负面影响 歧视的健康后果。我们的多方法方法(观察、调查、访谈、生物标志物) 调查以下目标：目标1.评估种族歧视与中国人的关系 美国青少年(A)心理健康(抑郁、焦虑、自杀)和(B)慢性应激的生物标记物 (头发皮质醇)超过三年。目标2.确定青少年的特征(内化 模范少数民族神话、种族认同)缓和了歧视和心理之间的联系 健康/慢性压力。目标3：(A)了解父母的特征(种族社会化、心理健康、 种族认同)，缓和了青少年歧视和青少年心理之间的联系 健康/慢性压力(头发皮质醇)。我们也考虑“向上社会化”，即青少年如何活跃。 代理人在他们自己的社会化和他们周围人的社会化中。青春期的歧视 对同时和下游成年人的健康和对AA的理解有特别有害的影响 青少年歧视将有助于识别有问题的精神健康风险人群。这项研究将告诉我们 迫切需要以个人、家庭和同伴为基础的干预措施来解决再生障碍性贫血青少年的心理健康问题 他们目前正面临着前所未有的心理健康风险。
