Abstract

Given the substantial variation within and across Asian American subgroups, there is compelling evidence that distinct developmental trajectories may exist for health outcomes such as substance use (e.g., alcohol, tobacco, marijuana), mental health, and physical health. This proposed study will be one of the first to investigate latent class trajectories of these outcomes among U.S.-born Filipino, Korean, and Indian American young adults, aged 18–19. We will examine how acute and chronic social stressors are prospectively associated with patterns of alcohol and drug use, psychological distress, and somatic health over a 36-month period. This work will offer novel insights into the longitudinal impact of social stressors and will help elucidate the developmental course and cooccurrence of multiple health challenges. Findings have the potential to inform more nuanced theoretical models of health risk among these three Asian American groups.
