CSDE Affiliates Hyun-Jun Kim (Social Work) and Karen Fredriksen-Goldsen (Social Work), along with co-authors Hailey H. Jung and Austin Oswald, published an article in Social Science & Medicine, on “Intersectional Health Disparities Among U.S. Midlife and Older Adults Focusing on Sexual Orientation and Race and Ethnicity: Evidence from a Population-Based Study.” The authors examined health disparities by race, gender, and sexual orientation using the 2013-2023 National Health Interview Survey data and tested for synergistic effects, that is, whether excess intersectional disparities contribute to health risks beyond the sum of disparities from single marginalizations. The data suggests health disadvantages driven by synergistic effects for Hispanic men, Blacks, and additional people of color among sexual minorities, and inverse health disparities for Hispanic and Asian sexual minority women.
