The Role of Resilience in Stress Response Among Mexican-American and Non-Hispanic White College Students

Book Description
Previous research has identified that resilience, or the ability to utilize protective factors, effectively buffers the detrimental effects of stress. While the psychological pathways for the protective effect of resilience against the deleterious effects of stress has been well explored and documented, less is known about potential physiological pathways for this relationship. The first goal of this study was to explore the influence resilience has on stress response and positive affect. The second goal was to better understand differences in the relationship between resilience and stress response between Mexican-American and non-Hispanic White individuals, given that Mexican-American individuals encounter additional stress from the process of acculturation. College students (N = 120; 50% Mexican-American, 76.9% Female, mage = 19.6) completed the Trier Social Stress Task (TSST). Measures of resilience, positive affect, and physiological stress response were collected. Examination of stress response utilized measurements of Cortisol, DHEA-S, and heart rate at three time points. Results indicated that while resilience was negatively correlated to stress, depression and anxiety, and positively correlated to positive affect, it was not related concretely to change in physiological variables over the course of the experiment. These findings highlight the importance of considering resilience when examining the psychological impact of stressful experiences, and raise further questions about how physiological response to stress is influenced by the psychological impact of stress and resilience. Further, it was found that amongst Mexican-American students more acculturative stress decreased the protective influence of resilience on positive affect after stress. These results suggest that resilience is an important dynamic to examine with regard to the impact of acculturative stress on minority populations.

Book Description
Due to the concern of underutilization of counseling services by Mexican Americans, several factors which have been identified in the research (acculturation, stress, and discrimination) were examined in relation to counseling attitudes. Ninety- seven Mexican American university students, who fit the criteria of Mexican American based on self identification participated in the study. All students were administered five measures which included the Acculturation Rating Scale for Mexican Americans, a cultural commitment scale, the Hispanic Stress Inventory, the Perceptions of Discrimination Scale, and the Attitudes Toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale. The purpose of the study was to explore the roles of acculturation, discrimination, and acculturative stress in relation to attitudes toward counseling for Mexican American college students and to further contribute to our understanding and knowledge of racism and its impact on ethnic minorities in counseling. Subjects were divided into high and low groups on measures of acculturation, acculturative stress, and perceptions of discrimination which was based on scores above and below the medians of instruments assessing these variables. Those who indicated experiencing higher levels of acculturative stress and perceptions of discrimination had overall more favorable attitudes toward seeking counseling than did those experiencing lower levels of acculturative stress and perceptions of discrimination. Women consistently had more favorable attitudes toward counseling than men based on the Need and Confidence subscales of the ATSPPH. The results of the Multiple Regression Analysis showed that discriminatory behaviors and attributes were significant predictors of overall Attitudes toward seeking psychological help. No significant differences were found between levels of acculturation and attitudes toward seeking counseling or between levels of cultural commitment and attitudes toward seeking counseling.
