Abstract

Racism-based experiences among Black African immigrants in the United States are a growing concern due to the prevalence of these events and risk for negative health (mental, behavioral, and physical) outcomes. This integrative review appraised published studies (2012-2023) addressing the relationship between racism-based experiences and adverse health for Black African immigrants. Articles were identified using structured search terms in several databases (APA PsycINFO, CINAHL, PubMed, Web of Science), Google Scholar, and citation mining. A total of fourteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Studies found a significant positive association between racism-based experiences and adverse mental (n = 9), behavioral (n = 3), and physical (n = 2) health outcomes. Racism-based experiences appear to have mental, behavioral, and physical health consequences for Black African immigrant adults. Given the growing population of Black African immigrants in the United States, more work is needed to elucidate the relationship between racism-based experiences and negative health outcomes.

美国黑人非洲移民中种族主义经历对健康的影响：综合评论》。

在美国，非洲黑人移民的种族主义经历日益受到关注，因为这些事件的发生率很高，而且有可能对健康（心理、行为和身体）造成负面影响。本综合综述对已发表的研究（2012-2023 年）进行了评估，这些研究探讨了种族主义经历与非洲黑人移民不良健康之间的关系。我们使用结构化检索词在多个数据库（APA PsycINFO、CINAHL、PubMed、Web of Science）、谷歌学术（Google Scholar）和引文挖掘中识别文章。共有 14 项研究符合纳入标准。研究发现，种族主义经历与不良心理（9 项）、行为（3 项）和身体（2 项）健康结果之间存在明显的正相关。种族主义经历似乎对成年非洲黑人移民的心理、行为和身体健康造成了影响。鉴于美国非洲黑人移民人口不断增长，我们需要做更多的工作来阐明种族主义经历与负面健康结果之间的关系。
