To social distance or to not social distance? COVID-19 social impact and safety profiles, social determinants, and mental health of Black adults.
American Journal of Orthopsychiatry 2023 December 8
The impact of COVID-19 on Black adults' social networks and their perceptions of the safety of social gatherings are intertwined. Yet, we know little about the role of this intersection and social determinants on Black adults' mental health. The goal of this study was to examine profiles of COVID-19 impact and safety for Black adults in the United States, their association with mental health, and the role of sociodemographic, health, and employment social determinants. We used latent class analysis and data from Black adults from the nationally representative survey of the Understanding Coronavirus in America Study (January-February 2021; N = 593) to construct profiles and test associations between profiles, social determinants, and mental health. Black adults in the low visitation safety profile had worse mental health than those in the high home safety profile. Older, retired, and insured Black adults were less likely to be impacted by COVID-19. Both the impact of COVID-19 on social networks and perceptions of safety of engaging with others are important for Black adults' mental health. Age, retirement, and health insurance play a role. Reducing distress and social isolation from COVID-19 impact and safety fears may bolster the mental health of Black adults. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).
