This study examines associations and potential interactions between race/ethnicity, workplace racial discrimination, depression, and negative emotional symptoms experienced due to treatment based on race. Data for this study come from the 2014 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), an annual telephone survey of US residents, aged 18 and older. Respondents from MN and NM (n = 13,655) completed a module titled Reactions to Race, which contained items assessing workplace racial discrimination and negative emotions experienced based on treatment due to race, as well as standard BRFSS items assessing a diagnosis of depression. Results support previous research concluding that non-Hispanic White survey respondents are less likely to experience racial discrimination in the workplace than other race/ethnicity groups, but were more likely to report both depression and negative emotions. Analyses stratified by race/ethnic group suggest that, after controlling for gender, marital status, education, and income, there was an association between experiencing workplace racial discrimination and reporting negative emotions due to treatment based on race (all p values < 0.001). Of note, this association was strongest for non-Hispanic White respondents.
本研究考察了种族/民族、工作场所种族歧视、抑郁以及因种族而导致的治疗所带来的负面情绪之间的关联和潜在相互作用。本研究的数据来自于 2014 年行为风险因素监测系统（BRFSS），这是一项针对美国 18 岁及以上居民的年度电话调查。来自明尼苏达州和新墨西哥州的受访者（n=13655）完成了一个名为“对种族的反应”的模块，其中包含评估工作场所种族歧视和因种族而导致的治疗所带来的负面情绪的项目，以及评估抑郁诊断的标准 BRFSS 项目。研究结果支持了先前的研究结论，即非西班牙裔白种受访者在工作场所经历种族歧视的可能性低于其他种族/民族群体，但更有可能报告抑郁和负面情绪。按种族/民族分层的分析表明，在控制了性别、婚姻状况、教育程度和收入后，工作场所种族歧视与因种族而导致的治疗所带来的负面情绪之间存在关联（所有 p 值均<0.001）。值得注意的是，这种关联在非西班牙裔白种受访者中最强。
