Discrimination and unfair treatment: relationship to cardiovascular reactivity among African American and European American women
Abstract
This study examined the relationship of cardiovascular reactivity to both interpersonal mistreatment and discrimination in a community-based sample of African American and European American women (N=363) in midlife. Subtle mistreatment related positively to diastolic blood pressure (DBP) reactivity for African American participants but not their European American counterparts. Moreover, among the African American participants, those who attributed mistreatment to racial discrimination exhibited greater average DBP reactivity. In particular, these women demonstrated greater DBP reactivity to the speech task, which bore similarities to an encounter with racial prejudice but not to a nonsocial mirror tracing task. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that racial discrimination is a chronic stressor that can negatively impact the cardiovascular health of African Americans through pathogenic processes associated with physiologic reactivity.

“For example, in a study in which women described being unjustly accused of shoplifting, African American women who reported experiencing past discrimination had greater diastolic blood pressure than African American women who reported little experiences of prior discrimination in their lives (Guyll et al., 2001).”

“For example, in this same paper European American women completing the same “discrimination” task showed larger blood pressure reactivity than African American women.”

In the citing paper
“This unique intersectional stress resulting from gendered racism has been associated with deleterious outcomes for African American women such as cardiovascular disease, hypertension, preterm birth, and low birth weight (Guyll et al., 2001;Jackson et al., 2001;Krieger, 1990).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
