This exploratory investigation examined the relationship between racial identity and perceived racism as predictor variables and perceptions of health status and health locus of control as criterion variables in a sample of 90 Black American women. Results of a canonical correlational analysis indicated a shared variance of 37% between these two sets of variables. This finding highlights the need to focus on perceived racism and racial identity attitudes as potentially important factors for consideration when seeking to understand health disparities in the United States.
这项探索性调查研究了90名美国黑人女性样本中，作为预测变量的种族认同和感知到的种族主义，与作为标准变量的健康状况认知和健康控制点之间的关系。典型相关分析结果表明，这两组变量之间的共同方差为37%。这一发现凸显出，在试图理解美国的健康差异时，需要将感知到的种族主义和种族认同态度作为可能的重要因素加以考量。
