Since race is a social construct, the experience of racial discrimination occurs based on perceived race. This study explores the moderating effects of self-identified race and perceived racial identity on the relationship between perceived discrimination in the workplace and mentally unhealthy days using data derived from the four states (Arizona, Minnesota, Mississippi, and New Mexico) that responded to the 2014 Reactions to Race module of the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. The study hypothesized that self-identified White people, also perceived as White (WW), would have less perceived workplace discrimination and less mentally unhealthy days than self-identified non-White people perceived as White (NWW); NWW would have less perceived discrimination associated with mentally unhealthy days than self-identified White perceived as non-White (WNW); and, WNW would have less perceived discrimination associated with mentally unhealthy days than self-identified non-White perceived as non-White (NWNW). The study was conducted under the regulating body of the City University of New York in 2017. Findings suggest that being perceived as White is a protective factor as analysis determined that NWW experienced less discrimination in the workplace associated with mentally unhealthy days than NWNW.
由于种族是一种社会建构，种族歧视的经历是基于感知到的种族。本研究使用来自四个州（亚利桑那州、明尼苏达州、密西西比州和新墨西哥州）的数据，探索了自我认同的种族和感知到的种族认同对工作场所感知歧视与心理健康不佳天数之间关系的调节作用，这些数据是对 2014 年行为风险因素监测系统种族反应模块的回应。研究假设，自我认同为白人，也被认为是白人（WW）的人，与自我认同为非白人的人相比，他们在工作场所的感知歧视和心理健康不佳天数会更少；与自我认同为白人的人相比，自我认同为非白人的人（NWW）与心理健康不佳天数相关的感知歧视会更少；与自我认同为非白人的人相比，自我认同为非白人的人（WNW）与心理健康不佳天数相关的感知歧视会更少。该研究于 2017 年在纽约城市大学的监管机构下进行。研究结果表明，被视为白人是一种保护因素，因为分析确定，与心理健康不佳天数相关的工作场所歧视，NWW 比 NWNW 经历的更少。
