The moderating effect of dispositional forgiveness on perceived racial discrimination and depression for African American adults.
Objectives: Perceived racial discrimination is associated with depressive symptoms for African American adults; however, insight to protective factors for racism and depression in African Americans is limited.

Racial discrimination, depressive symptoms, and sleep problems among Blacks in the rural South.
Conclusions: Persistent associations of racial discrimination with depressive symptoms and sleep problems reflect a lasting impact of racial discrimination.

Belief in the American Indian/Alaska Native biological vulnerability myth and drinking to cope: Does stereotype threat play a role?
Conclusion: Belief in the BV myth may act as a type of stereotype threat, contributing to alcohol consequences by increasing negative affect and drinking to cope.
