The author examines available evidence on the effects of exposure to joblessness on emotional well-being according to race and sex. The impact of racism on general health outcomes also is considered, particularly racism in the specific form of wage discrimination. Perceptions of racism and measured exposures to racism may be distinct triggers for adverse health outcomes. Whether the effects of racism are best evaluated on the basis of self-classification or social classification of racial identity is unclear. Some research sorts between the effects of race and socioeconomic status on health. The development of a new longitudinal database will facilitate more accurate identification of connections between racism and negative health effects.
作者根据种族和性别，研究了有关失业对情绪健康影响的现有证据。还考虑了种族主义对总体健康结果的影响，特别是工资歧视这种特定形式的种族主义。对种族主义的认知和衡量的种族主义暴露可能是不良健康结果的不同触发因素。尚不清楚基于种族身份的自我分类还是社会分类来评估种族主义的影响才是最佳方式。一些研究区分了种族和社会经济地位对健康的影响。一个新的纵向数据库的开发将有助于更准确地识别种族主义与负面健康影响之间的联系。
