Study Preregistration: Does State-level Structural Racism Impact Risk for Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors Among US Adolescents Across Race and Ethnicity? - 27/06/23
, Sharifa Z. Williams, DrPH b, Ana Ortin-Peralta, PhD cRésumé |
In the United States, suicide deaths have disproportionately increased among Black and Hispanic youth over the past 2 decades.1 Despite the critical need for more culturally responsive suicide prevention strategies, there has been only sparse research into unique risk factors commonly experienced among ethnoracially minoritized youth, such as racism-related experiences. Experiences of racial and ethnic discrimination (ie, a behavioral manifestation of racism via unfair treatment predicated on an individual’s racial and/or ethnic group affiliation) have been associated with higher rates of suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STBs) in Black and Hispanic adolescents.2,3 This research has largely focused on individual-level racism (ie, interpersonal exchanges) assessed via subjective self-report surveys. Thus, less is known about the impact of structural racism, which is enacted at the system level.
