[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS R0xjiLm2. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives. Our understanding of the relationships between perceived discrimination and health was limited by the cross-sectional design of most previous studies. We examined the longitudinal association of self-reported everyday discrimination with depressive symptoms and self-rated general health. Methods. Data came from 2 waves (1996 and 2001) of the Eastside Village Health Worker Partnership survey, a community-based participatory survey of African American women living on Detroit's east side (n=343). We use longitudinal models to test the hypothesis that a change in everyday discrimination over time is associated with a change in self-reported symptoms of depression (positive) and on self-reported general health status (negative). Results. We found that a change over time in discrimination was significantly associated with a change overtime in depressive symptoms (positive) (b=0.125 ; P<. and self-rated general health p independent of age education or income. conclusions. the results reported here are consistent with hypothesis that everyday encounters discrimination causally associated poor mental physical outcomes. in this sample african american women association holds above beyond effects income education.>
