This paper provides a review and critique of empirical research on perceived discrimination and health. The patterns of racial disparities in health suggest that there are multiple ways by which racism can affect health. Perceived discrimination is one such pathway and the paper reviews the published research on discrimination and health that appeared in PubMed between 2005 and 2007. This recent research continues to document an inverse association between discrimination and health. This pattern is now evident in a wider range of contexts and for a broader array of outcomes. Advancing our understanding of the relationship between perceived discrimination and health will require more attention to situating discrimination within the context of other health-relevant aspects of racism, measuring it comprehensively and accurately, assessing its stressful dimensions, and identifying the mechanisms that link discrimination to health.

:本文提供了关于歧视和健康感知的实证研究的回顾和批判。健康方面种族差异的模式表明,种族主义可以通过多种方式影响健康。感知的歧视就是这样一种途径,本文回顾了发表于2005年至2007年间PubMed上有关歧视与健康的研究。这项最新研究继续证明歧视与健康之间存在反比关系。现在,这种模式在更广泛的背景下和更广泛的结果中显而易见。增进我们对感知到的歧视与健康之间关系的理解,将需要更多地注意在种族主义其他与健康有关的其他方面确定歧视,进行全面和准确的衡量,评估其压力范围以及确定将歧视与健康联系起来的机制。
