The Role of Acculturation on Psychological and Physical Health Among Chinese and Latinx Cancer Survivors.

Sunday, May 26, 2019 · Washington, DC

Oral · Clinical Science

While research shows a positive link between mainstream acculturation and health among ethnic minority cancer survivors, less is known about the psychosocial factors that mediate or moderate this relationship. Four presentations will examine acculturation, psychosocial factors, and their influence on health among Latina and Chinese American cancer survivors.
