ABSTRACTWe studied concerns about cognitive health among ethnically diverse groups of older adults. The study was grounded in theories of health behaviour and the representation of health and illness. We conducted 42 focus groups (N=396, ages 50+) in four languages, with African Americans, American Indians, Chinese Americans, Latinos, Whites other than Latinos (hereafter, Whites) and Vietnamese Americans, in nine United States locations. Participants discussed concerns about keeping their memory or ability to think as they age. Audio recordings were transcribed verbatim. Constant comparison me

Approaching mental health issues in the Vietnamese community is challenging due to the distinct cultural practices, the stigma of mental illness, and the language barrier. These complexities are compounded by additional stressors experienced by many Vietnamese Americans stemming from war trauma and the demands of immigration.

Abstract:
Protest has become a useful window for examining all sorts of broader political phenomena. Using event data from newspaper reports, we trace protest by Vietnamese Americans since the first major wave of immigration. By looking at the issues, tactics, and development of protest within the Vietnamese American community in Orange County, California, we get a view of the development and incorporation of that community into contemporary American politics.

Abstract:
Abstract Advance directives (ADs) are legal documents that enable individuals to communicate their end-of-life care preferences in advance. AD completion is associated with decreased likelihood of unwanted medical interventions, healthcare costs, and decisional burden for family members. Compared to older Americans in general, older Asian Americans are less likely to complete ADs. While research focusing on ADs among Asian Americans has grown, few have investigated attitudes toward ADs among older Southeast Asian Americans (SEAAs). The study addresses that gap by examining factors associated w

Abstract:
Prenatal tobacco exposure is a significant, preventable cause of childhood morbidity, yet little is known about exposure risks for many race/ethnic subpopulations. We studied active smoking and environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure in a population-based cohort of 13 racially/ethnically diverse pregnant women: white, African American, Hispanic, Native American, including nine Asian/Pacific Islander subgroups: Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino, Cambodian, Vietnamese, Laotian, Samoan, and Asian Indians (N = 3329). Using the major nicotine metabolite, cotinine, as an objective biomarker, we

Abstract:
This paper explores representations of political and cultural identity within journalistic discourse about the American presence in the South Vietnamese newspaper Chíính Luun [Political Discussion] from 1965 to 1969. The encounter with Americans prompted Vietnamese writers to highlight the distinctive nature of their own culture, to define their national identity based on an imagined history and the image of proper Vietnamese womanhood, and to delineate normative boundaries of group membership. These constructions of identity represent certain continuities with the colonial era but were clearl
