CORRELATES OF MENTAL HEALTH SERVICE USE AMONG LATINO AND ASIAN IMMIGRANT ELDERS: RESULTS FROM THE NATIONAL LATINO AND ASIAN AMERICAN STUDY

摘要

Expanding upon Andersen's (1995) Behavioral Model of health care utilization, predisposing factors (age, gender, education, marital status), enabling factors (household income, total number of household members, length of residency in the United States, English-speaking ability, insurance), and mental health needs (self-rated mental health, mood disorders, and anxiety disorders) were considered as potential predictors of mental health service use.
