摘要
Our study investigated the association between perceived discrimination and outcomes related to health and well-being for Pacific adults in New Zealand. We examined personal and group discrimination from the 2013 wave of the New Zealand Attitudes and Values Study (n = 429 women and 196 men). Personal discrimination was associated with poorer health and well-being outcomes (higher psychological distress and lower self-esteem, subjective evaluation of health, satisfaction with life and personal well-being). Group discrimination, in contrast, was associated with poorer well-being but not health outcomes (lower subjective evaluation of health and personal well-being). These findings corroborate previous research and highlight the corrosive effect of discrimination towards health and well-being among Pacific communities in New Zealand.
