Abstract
ABSTRACT Guided by Berry’s conceptualization of acculturative stress and Hovey’s acculturative stress framework, this cross-sectional study examines the relationship between migratory acculturative stress and psychological distress among racial-ethnic minority US immigrants (n = 202). The multiple linear regression indicated that respondents reported moderate psychological distress, acculturative stress, social support, and COVID impact. Pre-migration and post-migration acculturative stress factors predicted higher psychological distress; however, only the subscale of socioeconomic stressors remained statistically significant once the COVID impact scale was also modeled. Future research and practice efforts need to attend to the cumulative impact of acculturative stress and pandemic disruptions inhibiting the psychological well-being of racially minoritized immigrants.
