The association of discrimination, inflammation, and coping style on self-rated health among South Asian individuals in the MASALA Study
The unknown magnitude and duration, and the lack of variability in discrimination among participants could explain the null findings between discrimination and inflammation. Gaining a better understanding of the ways in which SAs appraise and cope with discriminatory experiences may help to develop future interventions targeted to reduce the adverse health consequences of discrimination among SAs.
