This study used the National Epidemiological Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions, a longitudinal adult sample, to estimate the rates of prevalent, acquired, and persisting anxiety disorders by nativity and racial-ethnic origin while adjusting for acculturation, stress, social ties, and sociodemographics. Prevalent and acquired anxiety disorders were less likely among foreign-born than US-born, except Puerto-Rican- and Mexican-born who had higher risks. Persisting cases were similar between foreign-born and US-born, except Asian/Pacific Islanders who had lower risk. Stress and preference for socializing outside one's racial-ethnic group were associated with higher while close ties were associated with lower rates of acquired/persisting anxiety disorders.
本研究利用全国酒精及相关疾病流行病学调查（一个纵向的成人样本），在调整文化适应、压力、社会关系和社会人口统计学因素的同时，按出生地和种族 - 族裔来源估计普遍存在、后天获得和持续存在的焦虑症发病率。除波多黎各裔和墨西哥裔出生者风险较高外，外国出生者中普遍存在和后天获得的焦虑症比美国出生者少。除亚裔/太平洋岛民风险较低外，外国出生者和美国出生者中持续存在的病例相似。压力以及在自己种族 - 族裔群体之外社交的偏好与较高的后天获得/持续存在的焦虑症发病率相关，而亲密关系则与较低的发病率相关。
