Resumen

The objective of this study is to identify latent classes of Hispanic immigrants on the basis of acculturative stress and, in turn, examine the links between membership in acculturative stress classes and the prevalence of mental disorders. We use latent class analysis (LCA) and multinomial logistic regression with data from a population-based study of Hispanic immigrants in the United States (n = 1,630). Classes were identified as “Low Acculturative Stress” (38.40%); “Social and Linguistic Stress” (32.27%); “Acculturative Stress, No Fear of Deportation” (20.06%); and “Acculturative Stress, Fear of Deportation” (9.26%). Members of the “Acculturative Stress, Fear of Deportation” class were significantly more likely than members of the “Low Acculturative Stress” class to meet criteria for generalized anxiety disorder (risk ratios [RR] = 3.55, 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.00, 12.56]). The present study represents an important step in the development of a typology of acculturative stress among Hispanic immigrants in the United States.
