The present study examined association between self-reported count chronic conditions, explored moderating role objective subjective discrimination–health relation. We utilized nationally representative data Latino adults (N = 2,554) from National Asian American Study. Weighted negative binomial regression modeling was used to estimate test whether this relation modified by markers position. Binomial regressions associated with a greater conditions. However, moderation analyses indicated household income moderated relation, controlling for sociodemographic variables. More specifically, adverse were stronger Latinos in middle-income tertiles compared their lower counterparts, such as frequency increased, medium levels predicted counts This only marginally significant among those high-income tertile. Our findings suggest identifying segments population be at greatest (and lowest) risk ill context perceiving being discriminated against prove useful understanding “paradoxes,” implications tailoring prevention intervention efforts particular population.
