Incarceration, an event disproportionately impacting African Americans, may be a stressor contributing to EVA in African American women. Further, the subjective perspective, commonly referred to as appraisal, of incarceration may also be important for health. We hypothesised that having family and/or friends incarcerated and appraising the incarceration as upsetting would be associated with indices of EVA.}, journal={JOURNAL OF EPIDEMIOLOGY AND COMMUNITY HEALTH}, author={Fields, Nicole D. and Martin, Zachary T. and Hoggard, Lori S. and Erving, Christy L. and Udaipuria, Shivika and Blevins, Kennedy M. and Parker, Jordan E. and Goodson, Jaylah and Murden, Raphiel J. and Moore, Renee H. and et al.}, year={2024}, month={Aug} } @article{volpe_ross_collins_spivey_watson-singleton_goode_hoggard_giscombe_2023, title={Gendered Racial Microaggressions and Emotional Eating for Black Young Adult Women: The Mediating Roles of Superwoman Schema and Self-Compassion}, volume={7}, ISSN={["1471-6402"]}, url={http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-85164501928&partnerID=MN8TOARS}, DOI={10.1177/03616843231182913}, abstractNote={ Black young adult women's stress experiences are shaped by intersecting racism and sexism. To respond to this stress, some Black young adult women engage in emotional eating, which may threaten their health. Yet processes in the association between gendered racial microaggressions and emotional eating for Black young adult women remain unclear. In the current study, we used cross-sectional online survey data from a 2021 national investigation of 504 United States Black young adult (18–35 years old) women (98.4% cisgender) to test if the superwoman schema and self-compassion mediated the link between gendered racial microaggressions and emotional eating. Employing a serial mediation model in which we controlled for sociodemographic and health covariates, we found support for the hypothesized mediation: more gendered racial microaggressions were associated with greater endorsement of the superwoman schema; greater endorsement of the superwoman schema was associated with less self-compassion; and less self-compassion was associated with more emotional eating. Results provide cross-sectional evidence of theorized processes between gendered racial microaggressions and emotional eating for Black young adult women and point to self-compassion as one potentially important component of health behavior interventions to reduce emotional eating for Black young adult women who take on a superwoman role. }, number={1}, journal={PSYCHOLOGY OF WOMEN QUARTERLY}, author={Volpe, Vanessa V. and Ross, Julia M. and Collins, Abbey and Spivey, Briana N. and Watson-Singleton, Natalie N. and Goode, Rachel W. and Hoggard, Lori S. and Giscombe, Cheryl L.

We assert that police‐perpetrated racism constitutes a racial justice and public health problem. A growing body of literature supports this assertion, with the consequences and correlates of direct police contact, vicarious police contact, and place‐based exposure to aggressive policing including mental health (e.g., anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, trauma) and physical health (e.g., poorer self‐rated health, hypertension) sequelae. We assert that eradicating police‐perpetrated racism requires acknowledgement of the historical landscape of policing as well as the ways in which police‐perpetrated racism maintains racial hierarchies. We conclude by making recommendations for promoting racial equity in policing.}, journal={SOCIAL AND PERSONALITY PSYCHOLOGY COMPASS}, author={Hoggard, Lori S. and Lutchman, Mariah T.}, year={2023}, month={Aug} }
