This study explored associations between racism, social class, and health among ethnic minority people in England and Wales.
We conducted a series of regression analyses on cross-sectional data from the Fourth National Survey of Ethnic Minorities to explore the relation between different indicators of racism and health and household occupational class.
Marked independent associations existed between reported experience of racism and perceptions of Britain as a "racist society," household social class, age, sex, and various mental and physical health indicators. These associations showed reasonable consistency across the different ethnic groups.
The different ways in which racism may manifest itself (as interpersonal violence, institutional discrimination, or socioeconomic disadvantage) all have independent detrimental effects on health, regardless of the health indicator used.
本研究探讨了英格兰和威尔士少数族裔人群中种族主义、社会阶层与健康之间的关联。
我们对第四次全国少数族裔调查的横断面数据进行了一系列回归分析,以探究种族主义的不同指标与健康及家庭职业阶层之间的关系。
报告的种族主义经历与将英国视为“种族主义社会”的认知、家庭社会阶层、年龄、性别以及各种身心健康指标之间存在显著的独立关联。这些关联在不同种族群体中表现出合理的一致性。
无论使用何种健康指标,种族主义可能表现出的不同方式(如人际暴力、制度性歧视或社会经济劣势)都会对健康产生独立的有害影响。
