- Abstract
- Integration of adolescents with diverse cultural backgrounds into the country of residence is associated with some form of rejection and discrimination, predisposing them to undesirable health outcomes. In this regard, the aim of this study was to identify the social determinants of the health of racial and ethnic minority adolescents. In this integrative literature review, PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and CINAHL databases were searched from 2016 to 2021 and studies were selected according to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Health status was limited to health outcomes according to the definition proposed by the World Health Organization and Healthy People 2020. The social determinants of health were classified according to the research framework of the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities. Six types of health status were identified: self-rated health, obesity and overweight, global self-worth, emotional well-being, anthropometric measurement, and psychosocial adjustment. The social determinants of health were at the individual and interpersonal level, and the domains included the biological (gender, illness experience), psychological (acculturative stress), and sociocultural environment (e.g., socioeconomic status, parents' educational level, household death due to violence). Therefore, future research must prioritize their sociocultural environments to reduce the negative impact of discrimination and sociocultural and structural differences on racial and ethnic minority adolescents.
