Download or read book Chicana and Chicano Mental Health written by Yvette G. Flores and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirit, mind, and heart—in traditional Mexican health beliefs all three are inherent to maintaining psychological balance. For Mexican Americans, who are both the oldest Latina/o group in the United States as well as some of the most recent arrivals, perceptions of health and illness often reflect a dual belief system that has not always been incorporated in mental health treatments. Chicana and Chicano Mental Health offers a model to understand and to address the mental health challenges and service disparities affecting Mexican immigrants and Mexican Americans/Chicanos. Yvette G. Flores, who has more than thirty years of experience as a clinical psychologist, provides in-depth analysis of the major mental health challenges facing these groups: depression; anxiety disorders, including post-traumatic stress disorder; substance abuse; and intimate partner violence. Using a life-cycle perspective that incorporates indigenous health beliefs, Flores examines the mental health issues affecting children and adolescents, adult men and women, and elderly Mexican Americans. Through case studies, Flores examines the importance of understanding cultural values, class position, and the gender and sexual roles and expectations Chicanas/os negotiate, as well as the legacies of migration, transculturation, and multiculturality. Chicana and Chicano Mental Health is the first book of its kind to embrace both Western and Indigenous perspectives. Ideally suited for students in psychology, social welfare, ethnic studies, and sociology, the book also provides valuable information for mental health professionals who desire a deeper understanding of the needs and strengths of the largest ethnic minority and Hispanic population group in the United States.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this dissertation was to examine the mental health literacy of Mexican-American adolescents concerning perinatal depression. The final project is a qualitative descriptive study via deductive and inductive content analysis. Categories and subcategories are presented using the mental health literacy framework. Participants were recruited from urban high schools in Southwestern United States. Twenty pregnant and postpartum (perinatal) Mexican-American adolescents between the ages of 15 and 19 years participated in this study. Interpersonal conflict was the most common cause of depressive symptoms as adolescents described strained relationships with the father of the baby and family members. Emotional and instrumental support were most important to adolescents in alleviating stress and depression. Family members and their significant other were individuals that adolescents turned to for support. Family members, the internet, health providers, and mothers who had previously experienced perinatal depression were mentioned as sources of mental health information. However, those who indicated internet sources were unable to explain how information would be verified for accuracy. Although participants were able to identify symptoms of depression, many expressed difficulties in recognizing depressive symptoms. Recognition was facilitated through self-appraisals and appraisal of others. Adolescents who experienced criticism due to their pregnancy status were apprehensive about discussing depressive symptoms as many feared it would lead to more criticism and judgement. Cultural beliefs surrounding motherhood influenced perceptions about depression. Participants often ignored or minimized their symptoms as mothers were often regarded as strong, resilient figures within the family unit. In regards to perceptions about health professionals and treatment, results were somewhat mixed. Adolescents were ambivalent or unfamiliar with treatments and some believed pharmacologic treatments were not beneficial. Participants overwhelmingly expressed that empathy and warmth facilitated professional help-seeking. Health care providers were seen as knowledgeable, but it was important for adolescents to first establish rapport before disclosing their mental health concerns. Utilization of the mental health literacy framework provided a comprehensive description of Mexican-American adolescents’ perceptions about perinatal depression. Consideration of sociocultural environment, values, and beliefs are indicated during interactions with and development of interventions for perinatal Mexican-American adolescents

This book was released on 2015 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study explored the differences in mental health attitudes, perceptions and causal beliefs between Mexican Americans born in the United States and Mexican immigrants born in Mexico through quantitative data gathered by the researcher. Primary data collected from fifty (50) participants was used to explore these differences via the Attitudes Towards Mental Health Problems Scale (ATMHPS) (Gilbert et al., 2007). According to mean scores on the ATMHPS, the Community External Shame (CES) subscale - concern about how one's community views mental illness and how it would view them personally if they suffered from a mental illness, was of highest concern regardless of nationality, sex, income and education. For this reason, the researcher focused on examining the relationship between nationality, sex, income and education with Community External Shame (CES). The major findings from the study indicated no statistically significant difference between U.S born Mexican Americans and Mexican born immigrants in their concerns for Community External Shame (CES) (t(48)= -.571, p= .571). Like nationality, the researcher did not find a statistically significant affect of sex ( t(48)= 1.29, p= 0.203), income ( t(48)= 1.05, p= 0.297) or education ( t(48)= 1.53, p= 0.133) on Community External Shame (CRS), suggesting that in this small sample of participants of Mexican descent, nationality, sex, income and education did not influence their stigmatic mental illness beliefs about community external shame.
