Abstract
Despite Latino day laborers being a vulnerable population of immigrant men, limited research has examined their mental health, particularly within the context of ethnicity and masculinity. The current study examined associations among perceived racism, gender role conflict, and life satisfaction among Latino day laborers. Participants included 159 Latino day laborers recruited from various informal sites within Southern California. Findings indicated that perceived racism moderated the association between gender role conflict and life satisfaction. Implications for clinical practice and future research with Latino day laborers are provided.
