“…A large percentage of the data‐based studies (approximately 46%) on internalized racism explored its relationship with other variables, and we highlight some of them in this section. A number of studies has investigated the relationship between internalized racism and ethnic/racial identity, which tend to be negatively correlated (e.g., Benigno, ; Bryant, ; Cokley, ; David & Okazaki, ; Ferrera, ; Hipolito‐Delgado, , ,; Zhen‐Duan, Jacuez, & Saez‐Santiago, ; Williams, ). Relatedly, some studies also suggest that internalized racism is related to assimilation or lower levels of being enculturated or connected with one's racial/ethnic group (e.g., David & Okazaki, ; Hilaire, Blitz, Lisa, & Greene, ).…”

Racism is often thought of as existing and operating at the interpersonal and institutional levels. One aspect of racism that has been relatively forgotten, however, is its internalized component: racism that exists and operates at the internalized level. Surprisingly, even psychology—the field that is arguably best equipped to study the internalized component of racism—seems to have lagged in investigating and addressing this construct. Thus, we conducted a systematic literature review of psychological work on internalized racial oppression to better understand what is currently known, what the recent surge in scholarship has contributed, and where the research and service gaps are in order to identify areas for future growth. Overall, psychological attention on internalized racism seems to be increasing, and there have been some exciting conceptual (e.g., cognitive behavioral conceptualization, moving toward “appropriated racial oppression”) and empirical (e.g., development of scales, correlates with mental health variables) developments. However, our review also revealed a need for more work that: (1) utilizes qualitative or mixed methods; (2) focuses on the experiences of different racial and ethnic groups; (3) investigates how internalized racism intersects with other forms of internalized oppression; (4) clarifies the connection of internalized racism with other theoretically similar phenomena; and (5) incorporates social justice and advocacy in clinical and community services to balance unequal power dynamics that perpetuate racism—the root cause of internalized racism.

Traditional and modern culture together constitute Tibetan local cultures in contemporary society. The objective of this research is to explore Tibetans' cultural cognition, recent shifts and the factors influencing it. By applying various qualitative and quantitative methods of analysis, this study finds that Tibetans' cultural integration is typically expressed in tradition preservation, through the dimensions of daily life and social interactions, while their cultural separation is demonstrated through religious beliefs, along with other cognition types that tend towards modern cultures incorporating festivals. Their cognition is associated with economic activities, job needs, occupation choices and personal development. In practice, Tibetans' cultural cognition is strongly influenced by individuals' psychological responses and social development. Pressure from foreign cultures and globalization, coupled with further education, and a higher degree of ethnic belonging together enhance Tibetans' adherence to their traditional culture. Meanwhile, changes in social relations, positive impacts of foreign culture, improvements in educational facilities, modern science and technology, and national policies can lead to modern cultural cognition. These results can help contextual understanding of contemporary culture in Tibet and are key for governments and stakeholders to effectively protect Tibetan traditional culture and promote its sustainable development.

“…In applying cultural stress theory to the present study, the theory assumes that various cultural stressors co-occur within the lives of Hurricane Maria survivors and that these stressors compromise their mental health (Capielo Rosario & Dillon, 2020; Salas-Wright & Schwartz, 2019; Salas-Wright, Maldonado-Molina, et al, 2021; Zhen-Duan et al, 2018). This assumption is based on prior work by Capielo Rosario et al (2019).…”

Puerto Rico, devastating the archipelago and forcing thousands of Puerto Ricans to migrate to the U.S. mainland. Guided by a cultural stress theory framework, the present mixed method study examined how various cultural stressors impact participants' daily interactions and mental health outcomes. A total of 319 adult Hurricane Maria survivors residing on the U.S. mainland participated in the study. A mixed method sequential explanatory design was used. First, we used latent profile analysis (LPA) and multinomial logistic regression to identify the varied cultural stress experiences that participants had. Then we used data from semistructured interviews to better understand the experiences of participants classified into the different LPA profiles. Four profiles were identified: "moderate cultural stress" (35%), "overall low" (29%), "high cultural stress" (26%), and "low language stress" (10%). Multinomial regression indicated that members of the moderate cultural stress, high cultural stress, and low language stress profiles all reported significantly higher depressive and anxiety symptoms compared to members of the overall low profile. Qualitative data exemplified the daily experiences of participants placed into each profile, demonstrating that participants have rich and varied experiences that can contribute to their mental health symptoms. The present study documents the contributions of hurricane trauma and cultural stress vis-à-vis current mental health symptoms. Clinicians working with Hurricane Maria survivors should be cognizant of and inquire about migration-related cultural stressors including discrimination, feelings of being unwelcomed, and difficulty communicating in the destination community's dominant language. Public Significance StatementThis article expands cultural stress theory by documenting the contributions of hurricane trauma and cultural stress vis-à-vis current mental health symptoms using a mixed method approach. Results of this study highlight the need for clinicians who work with Hurricane Maria survivors to inquire about migration-related stressors that can exacerbate mental health symptoms.
