Social Stressors and Personal Resources Associated with Perinatal Outcomes Among African American Women
註釋There was a high prevalence of trauma exposure (87%) and discrimination (86%) in this sample. Race was the most cited reason for discrimination (56%). Yet, women also felt that they were discriminated against because of their gender (44%), socioeconomic status (39%), and age (32%). Lifetime trauma exposure, tobacco use, number of prenatal visits, and discrimination due to age and physical ability were predictive of perinatal outcomes. Factors such as spirituality, social support, and generalized stress perception were unrelated to perinatal outcomes. Finally, other variables (socioeconomic, psychological, behavioral, and medical) associated with adverse perinatal outcomes in previous studies did not contribute to our model in this study.
