“…These explanations range from selfselection into migration to participation in fewer risky health behaviors (Marks et al, 2014;Wright & Rodriguez, 2014). But there is also evidence to suggest that immigrants possess certain protective factors, or resources, that promote positive adaptation to adversity, such as cultural capital (DeJonckheere et al, 2017;Motti-Stefanidi, 2018). The cultural capital available to immigrants includes a protective ethnic identity, cultural flexibility, and higher rates of family involvement (Perreira, Chapman, & Stein, 2006).…”

“…Growing literature illustrates that immigrants to the United States fare better when confronting adversity than native-born individuals. Research routinely shows that foreign-born persons are better able to overcome trauma, disadvantage, and other life stressors, and that they generally have better health outcomes than U.S.born individuals (DeJonckheere, Vaughn, & Jacquez, 2017;Espinosa et al, 2018;Marks, Ejesi, & Coll, 2014). This pattern is referred to as the "immigrant paradox."…”

Background In the United States, foreign-born persons often have better health outcomes than their native-born peers, despite exposure to adversity. Nevertheless, it is unclear whether this pattern extends to the consequences of life events, such as incarceration, that separate immigrants from their supportive networks and increase exposure to adversity. Accordingly, using four waves of data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health, hierarchical generalized linear models were used to examine within-individual changes in self-rated health following first incarceration (N = 31,202 person-waves). Results The results showed that incarceration was associated with modest health declines that were similar in magnitude for immigrant and native-born persons. Supplemental analyses revealed that these effects did not vary by immigrant race or ethnicity, or by age at immigration. The only exception was for immigrants from low- and middle-income countries, who were marginally less likely to experience health declines following incarceration. Conclusions In general, incarceration appears to be similarly health damaging for immigrants and non-immigrants. These findings raise important questions about how incarceration is linked to health declines for foreign- and native-born populations and emphasize the importance of access to healthcare for individuals released from correctional facilities. More research is needed, however, to further examine the cumulative impacts of incarceration on immigrants’ health across the life course, and to assess a broader spectrum of health outcomes.

“…Based on the idea that most Herbal medicine centre patients and some Hospital/Clinic patients might be uneducated on mobile phone usage, a one-on-one set of interviews was necessary for the collection of data. The interview data collection approach is known for its efficacy in the detail clarification process (DeJonckheere et al, 2017).…”

Fecundity prediction is a process that helps couples to understand their fertility status. Fecundity prediction as a domain could be supported by developed intelligent models using a computational method and fecundity data. Although fecundity data and models have been proposed, the problem of low data size and dimensionality of the proposed fecundity dataset has been identified due to the data collection approaches used and the problem of using a weak subfertility definition in the development of a User-embedding LSTM-based fecundity prediction model. To solve the identified problems, this study proposed a fecundity dataset by adopting a hybrid data collection approach using the strengths and disregarding the setbacks of existing data collection approaches and then proposed an improved User-embedding LSTM-based fecundity prediction model based on an improved subfertility definition. A large size fecundity dataset was generated and used for the implementation and evaluation of the existing and proposed LSTM-based fecundity prediction models and the proposed model generated better AUC-ROC evaluation results

“…For example, constructs such as familismo (a trait of Latinx families that values the needs and wants of family as more important than one's own), religiosity, and biculturalism have been linked to fewer mental health symptoms among Latinx youth. 33 , 34 These constructs are examples of the spiritual/cultural domain of SER that have demonstrated importance in Latinx groups. Unfortunately, it is unknown whether scales reflecting these domains have been created or validated in Latinx populations.…”

Psychometric Properties of Scales Measuring Resilience in U.S. Latinx Populations: A Systematic Review

Objectives: Instruments used to measure resilience have typically been developed in European or Anglosphere countries and emphasize personal factors of resilience. In addition to being a quickly growing ethnic minority group in the United States, Latinx individuals face unique stressors and protective factors that may contribute to resilience. This review sought to determine the extent to which instruments measuring resilience have been validated in U.S. Latinx populations and what domains of resilience those scales capture. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) standards and included studies describing psychometric properties of resilience scales for Latinx individuals living in the United States. Articles were assessed for quality of psychometric validation; scales used in the final studies were assessed for representation of domains of the social ecological resilience model. Results: Nine studies were included in the final review examining eight separate resilience measures. The populations of these studies were heterogeneous geographically and demographically; more than half the studies only included Latinx populations as a subgroup. The breadth and quality of psychometric validation were variable across studies. The domains represented by the scales in the review most heavily assessed individual domains of resilience. Conclusion: The literature to date on psychometric validation of resilience measures in Latinx populations in the United States is limited and does not robustly capture aspects of resilience that may be particularly meaningful for Latinx populations, such as community or cultural factors. Instruments that are developed with and for Latinx populations are necessary to better understand and measure resilience in this population.
