There is a dearth of knowledge in the coping literature on how minoritized youth cope with racism-related stressors and the predictors of effective coping responses. This two-wave study examined the direct and indirect effects of ethnic-racial socialization on depressive and anxiety symptoms via proactive coping with discrimination in a community sample of 135 Latinx adolescents (M_age = 16, SD = 1.27; 59% female). Results indicate that cultural socialization was related to higher use of proactive coping with discrimination 6 months later, which in turn, was related to fewer depressive and anxiety symptoms. There were no direct or indirect effects between preparation for bias and mental health outcomes.

积极应对歧视：种族社会化与拉丁裔青年内化症状之间的中介因素

应对文献中缺乏关于少数族裔青年如何应对种族主义相关压力源以及有效应对反应的预测因素的知识。这项两波研究以 135 名拉丁裔青少年为社区样本（M 年龄 = 16，SD = 1.27；59 %_为 女性），通过积极应对歧视，考察了民族种族社会化对抑郁和焦虑症状的直接和间接影响。结果表明，文化社会化与 6 个月后更多地主动应对歧视有关，而这反过来又与较少的抑郁和焦虑症状有关。偏见准备与心理健康结果之间没有直接或间接影响。
