OverviewAI-generated summary
Michael Niño's research investigates health disparities and outcomes, particularly focusing on the influences of race, ethnicity, and gender on health behaviors and experiences. His work examines factors such as mask-wearing adherence during the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccine intentions, and perceived racial/ethnic discrimination among various populations, including immigrant young adults.
His research also explores the co-occurrence of adverse childhood experiences and mental health challenges, the long-term consequences of school disciplinary actions on mental well-being, and the relationship between socioeconomic factors like poverty and material hardship and physiological markers such as telomere length in children. Niño's scholarship includes studies on stress and allostatic load within Latina/o communities and the role of social and psychological resources in mediating COVID-19 related fear and worry.
