During the last four years, xenophobic rhetoric directed toward Latino immigrants in U.S. media outlets and political forums has greatly increased. Using a general inductive approach, this qualitative study examined the forms of cultural stress, with a focus on discrimination and xenophobia, experienced by Latino adolescents in urban U.S. settings in 2018 and 2019. Six focus groups were conducted in Miami and Los Angeles (three groups per city) with first- and second-generation tenth-grade Latino students (n = 34). The following four themes emerged from the data: perceived discrimination from other Latino subgroups (in-group discrimination), perceived discrimination from non-Latino groups (out-group discrimination), internalization of stressors and discrimination experienced by participants' parents, and the current U.S. political rhetoric surrounding immigration. Understanding cultural stress among Latino adolescents provides valuable insight for future interventions to offset negative health outcomes associated with cultural stress.
在过去四年中，美国媒体和政治论坛中针对拉丁裔移民的排外言论大幅增加。本定性研究采用一般归纳法，考察了2018年和2019年美国城市环境中拉丁裔青少年所经历的文化压力形式，重点关注歧视和排外情绪。在迈阿密和洛杉矶进行了六个焦点小组访谈（每个城市三个小组），访谈对象为第一代和第二代十年级拉丁裔学生（n = 34）。数据中出现了以下四个主题：来自其他拉丁裔亚群体的感知歧视（群体内歧视）、来自非拉丁裔群体的感知歧视（群体外歧视）、参与者父母所经历的压力源和歧视的内化，以及当前美国围绕移民问题的政治言论。了解拉丁裔青少年的文化压力，为未来干预措施提供了宝贵的见解，以抵消与文化压力相关的负面健康结果。
