The relationship between ethnicity and mental health deserves more consideration than it usually receives if we are to understand how values translate into behavior. This question could be explored productively with a variety of subgroups, but in this paper the emphasis will be on the aged.

This paper offers some suggestions and reviews some data that might encourage further efforts in this area.
