This book was released on 2003 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mental health of individuals of Mexican origin varies as a function of generational status. Studies have found that Mexican Americans tend to have more depressive symptoms than Mexican immigrants. The goal of this study was to identify possible explanations for the reported generational differences in depression among individuals of Mexican origin by examining acculturation, gender, generational status, and relative deprivation. Participants were153 women and men of Mexican origin who completed a questionnaire packet assessing demographic background, the Acculturation Rating Scale for Mexican Americans (ARSMA-11), the Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-11), relative deprivation and the Revised Generalized Expectancy for Success Scale (GESS-R). Multiple regression analyses were conducted to examine whether gender, generational status, acculturation level were significant predictors of depressive symptoms and optimism level. Findings suggest that low acculturation and being female were significant predictors of depressive symptoms. Relative deprivation was not a significant predictor of depressive symptoms among Mexican immigrants and Mexican Americans.

This book was released on 2006-02-23 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hispanics and the Future of America presents details of the complex story of a population that varies in many dimensions, including national origin, immigration status, and generation. The papers in this volume draw on a wide variety of data sources to describe the contours of this population, from the perspectives of history, demography, geography, education, family, employment, economic well-being, health, and political engagement. They provide a rich source of information for researchers, policy makers, and others who want to better understand the fast-growing and diverse population that we call "Hispanic." The current period is a critical one for getting a better understanding of how Hispanics are being shaped by the U.S. experience. This will, in turn, affect the United States and the contours of the Hispanic future remain uncertain. The uncertainties include such issues as whether Hispanics, especially immigrants, improve their educational attainment and fluency in English and thereby improve their economic position; whether growing numbers of foreign-born Hispanics become citizens and achieve empowerment at the ballot box and through elected office; whether impending health problems are successfully averted; and whether Hispanics' geographic dispersal accelerates their spatial and social integration. The papers in this volume provide invaluable information to explore these issues.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the largely undetected and untreated health conditions affecting the Latino population in the United States is depression. Although the onset of depression can be influenced by a variety of factors that differ among individuals, Latinos in the United States are subject to certain cultural-specific social and environmental stresses that may increase their risk. As Latinos become more acculturated into the American mainstream, they may be less likely to experience these stressors. Latina women have been found to have considerably higher rates of depression symptoms than their male counterparts; traditional values of the culture may be creating a sociocultural backdrop of gender inequality that could serve as a precursor to mental disorders. There is a gap in the research in relation to how depression rates in Latinas may be affected by the process of acculturation in the context of gender-based roles and power. This study is an exploration of how acculturation and relationship power affect the presence or absence of depression symptoms in Mexican immigrant women. A sample of 35 women from Benton County, Oregon, was interviewed using a questionnaire comprised of the revised Center for Epidemiologic Studies depression scale (CESD-R), the Short Acculturation Scale for Hispanics (SASH) and the Sexual Relationship Power Scale (SRPS). The purpose of the survey was to generate hypotheses for further research into factors that need to be taken into consideration when designing mental health programs for Latinos in the United States. Forty percent (40%) of the women in this study were classified as having depression symptoms according to their CESD-R scores, and a majority of the women were classified a having a low acculturation level. Also, the results indicate that most of the women in this study had medium to high levels of relationship power. The analysis did not yield a strong association between depression and acculturation scores or between depression and relationship power scores. There was a strong correlation found between acculturation and relationship power. It is hoped that this study will call attention to the mental health needs of Hispanic women and that the information gathered will aid in creating successful and culturally-relevant prevention and treatment services.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing number of refugees, asylum seekers, and irregular migrants poses a challenge for mental health services in Europe. This review found that these groups are exposed to risk factors for mental disorders before, during, and after migration. The prevalence of psychotic, mood, and substance-use disorders in these groups varies but overall resembles that in the host populations. Refugees and asylum seekers, however, have higher rates of post-traumatic stress disorder. Poor socioeconomic conditions are associated with increased rates of depression five years after resettlement. Refugees, asylum seekers, and irregular migrants encounter barriers to accessing mental health care. Good practice for mental health care includes promoting social integration, developing outreach services, coordinating health care, providing information on entitlements and available services, and training professionals to work with these groups. These actions require resources and organizational flexibility.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are approximately 11 million undocumented immigrants currently residing in the United States, 8 million coming from Latin America (Krogstad, Passel, & Cohn, 2017). There have been positive and negative legislation at the state and national level affecting undocumented immigrants. They are exposed to trauma prior, during and after immigration (Salas, Ayon & Gurrola, 2013). The restrictive policies, the discrimination they face and the stress of the acculturation process are part of the stressors that affect their mental health (Becerra et al., 2013; Flores et al., 2008; Hwang & Goto, 2008; Salas, et al., 2013; Smokowski & Bacallao, 2007). Latino undocumented immigrants are at a greater risk for anxiety and depression (Flores et al., 2008; Hwang & Goto, 2008) and experience higher stress levels (Hatzenbuehler et al., 2017; Salas et al., 2013). Nevertheless, there is not a variety of mental health treatments offered to undocumented immigrants. The modality most often used and found in literature is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Most of the interventions occur in group settings and have an overrepresentation of females and individuals of Mexican descent (Dixon et al., 2006; Hovey et al., 2014; Kaltman et al., 2016; Kataoka et al., 2002, Piedra & Buyon, 2012; Shattell et al., 2012). Additional research to provide more culturally appropriate services and a higher variety of services is needed. Also, there must be action at the macro level to provide legislation to protect and aid the Latino undocumented immigrant population.

This book was released on 2006-08-03 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years the topic of acculturation has evolved from a relatively minor research area to one of the most researched subjects in the field of cross-cultural psychology. This edited handbook compiles and systemizes the current state of the art by exploring the broad international scope of acculturation. A collection of the world's leading experts in the field review the various contexts for acculturation, the central theories, the groups and individuals undergoing acculturation (immigrants, refugees, indigenous people, expatriates, students and tourists) and discuss how current knowledge can be applied to make both the process and its outcome more manageable and profitable. Building on the theoretical and methodological framework of cross-cultural psychology, the authors focus specifically on the issues that arise when people from one culture move to another culture and the reciprocal adjustments, tensions and benefits involved.
