BACKGROUND
The purpose of this study was to identify correlates of perceived stress among older African Americans.
METHODS AND FINDINGS
Guided by the National Institute on Aging's (NIA) Health Disparities Research Framework, we grouped correlates into four levels-environmental, sociocultural, behavioral, and biological, and performed a cross-sectional analysis using ordinal logistic regression models. Participants included 722 African Americans [mean age = 73.61 years (SD = 6.33)] from the Minority Aging Research Study (MARS). Several protective correlates from environmental (e.g., larger life space), sociocultural (e.g., larger social network size), behavioral (e.g., more purpose in life), and biological (e.g., higher global cognition) levels were associated with a lower odds of having higher levels of perceived stress.
CONCLUSIONS
Perceived stress was associated with established and novel correlates from every level. Future research is needed to examine how changes in these correlates may impact perceived stress in older African Americans.
背景
本研究旨在确定老年非裔美国人感知压力的相关因素。
方法和发现
本研究以美国国家老龄化研究所（NIA）的健康差异研究框架为指导，将相关因素分为环境、社会文化、行为和生物四个层次，并使用有序逻辑回归模型进行横断面分析。参与者包括来自少数族裔衰老研究（MARS）的 722 名非裔美国人[平均年龄=73.61 岁（SD=6.33）]。环境（例如，更大的生活空间）、社会文化（例如，更大的社交网络规模）、行为（例如，更有生活目标）和生物（例如，更高的整体认知）等层面的几个保护相关因素与感知压力水平较高的几率较低有关。
结论
感知压力与每个层面的既定和新的相关因素有关。未来的研究需要研究这些相关因素的变化如何影响老年非裔美国人的感知压力。
