The Impact

Anti-Asian violence has been on the rise since March 2020. Recent data on rates of discrimination and violence as well as the impact on Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) mental health is presented and discussed in the context of common stereotypes about AAPIs. Suggestions for how the field of psychology can be helpful in responding to anti-Asian hate are offered. The article concludes with a message to AAPI psychology students about caring for themselves and finding community.

The Relationship

This study examines the role of perceived discrimination as a mediator of the relationship between ethnic minority-majority status and mental health in a sample of college students, of whom 246 were members of an ethnic minority (African American, Latino American, or Asian American) and 167 were European Americans. Ethnic minority students were significantly higher in perceived discrimination and significantly lower in mental health. African Americans were most likely to perceive racial discrimination, followed by Latino Americans, Asian Americans, and European Americans. Asian Americans reported the poorest mental health. Results of mediational analyses by ethnic status (minorities and majority) and across ethnic group pairings (Americans and European Americans, Latino Americans and European Americans, Asian Americans and European Americans) confirmed in every instance that perceived discrimination accounts for a modest part of the relationship between ethnic minority-majority status and mental health. We address the implications for mental health practice on college campuses.
