HEALTH OF AGING MEXICANS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BORDER. PROJECT SUMMARY. Aging in the United States is increasingly contingent on the health of adults from historically-disadvantaged groups. The Mexican-origin population is one of the fastest growing segments of US elderly and one facing many disadvantages, both from experiences prior to immigration and by hardship experienced since immigration. The accumulation of decades of poor working and living conditions and poor access to health care have likely led to the particularly problematic physical and mental health problems observed in this population in old age, despite exhibiting “paradoxically” low cardiovascular mortality risks. These problems may have deteriorated further due to contemporary declines in the conditions that facilitate the social inclusion of immigrants and their descendants. The impact of these changes on older Latinos and their support networks is essentially unknown. The health impacts of changes in immigration-related climate, policies, and practices also likely affects aging populations in Mexico. One in five older adults in Mexico have previous migration experience in the U.S. Many older Mexican adults depend on economic, social, and emotional support from relatives living in the U.S., particularly their adult children. These family support networks have been disrupted by e.g., the deportation and unplanned return of circa 2 million Mexican immigrants from the United States over the last 15 years. This project examines how changes to migration patterns and policies shape aging in the Mexican-origin population on both the U.S. and Mexico. Using a novel, binational approach that jointly considers different forms of migration-related selection, mortality and proxy selection, and several kinds of unobserved heterogeneity, we examine how the physical, cognitive, and mental health of older adults has changed over time as a function of their migration experiences. We analyze rich longitudinal data from the 2006-2018 Health and Retirement Study (HRS) in the United States and the 2001-2018 Mexican Health and Aging Study (MHAS) in Mexico using several ancillary datasets to enhance the measurement of different dimensions of immigrant social inclusion (ISI). We have three aims. First, we estimate the association between cumulative disadvantage and chronic mental, physical, and cognitive health and mortality. Second, we examine the contribution of spatiotemporal variation in attitudes, policies, and practices influencing ISI to changes in mental and physical health among older adults in the US. Third, we assess how changes in the location and support younger adult children provide to elderly parents living in the United States and Mexico affect parental mental and physical health.

边境两侧的墨西哥老年人的健康状况。 项目摘要。 美国的老龄化越来越取决于历史上处于不利地位的成年人的健康状况 组墨西哥裔人口是美国老年人中增长最快的群体之一， 许多不利因素，既来自移民前的经历，也来自移民后的艰苦经历。 移民.数十年来恶劣的工作和生活条件以及难以获得健康的积累 护理可能导致特别有问题的身体和精神健康问题，在这方面观察到， 尽管显示出“自相矛盾的”低心血管死亡率风险，这些问题可能 由于当代促进社会包容的条件下降， 移民及其后代。这些变化对老年拉丁美洲人及其支持网络的影响是 基本上未知。 与移民有关的气候、政策和做法的变化对健康的影响也可能影响衰老 墨西哥的人口。墨西哥五分之一的老年人有在美国移民的经历。 墨西哥老年人依赖生活在美国的亲戚的经济、社会和情感支持， 尤其是他们的成年子女。这些家庭支持网络已被破坏，例如，驱逐 在过去的15年里，大约有200万墨西哥移民从美国无计划地返回。 本项目研究移民模式和政策的变化如何影响墨西哥裔人口的老龄化 美国和墨西哥的人口。使用一种新颖的、两个国家的方法， 与迁移相关的选择、死亡率和代理选择的形式，以及几种未观察到的 异质性，我们研究了老年人的身体，认知和心理健康如何改变， 时间是他们移民经历的函数。我们分析了2006-2018年健康状况的丰富纵向数据 2001-2018年墨西哥健康与老龄化研究（MHAS） 在墨西哥，使用几个辅助数据集来加强对移民不同层面的衡量， 社会包容。我们有三个目标。首先，我们估计累积的 弱势群体和慢性精神、身体和认知健康及死亡率。第二，我们研究 影响ISI的态度、政策和实践的时空变化对心理变化的贡献 美国老年人的身体健康状况。第三，我们评估位置和支持的变化 年幼的成年子女向居住在美国和墨西哥的老年父母提供的信息会影响父母的心理 和身体健康
