Abstract

Our sample consisted of women (n = 64 Hispanic; n = 64 non-Hispanic White) recruited from a southwestern university in the US. The study identified ethnic disparities in pain tolerance among a sample of college women. Findings may have implications for techniques that combat stress and prevent mental health issues.
