Foreign-born Hispanic adults in the US are reporting poor/fair health at higher levels. Why? Because those who answer in Spanish are reporting "Regular" at higher rates than ever before. A pattern not observed in Poor/Mala, or among non-US Born Hispanic adults who answer in English. The pattern is also absent among US born Hispanic adults. It seems we are not speaking the same language when we ask Hispanic adults about their health in the US!

My latest publication quantifies this!

@alexisrsantos Super cool example of translation effects on survey results. Only wish I’d seen your work BEFORE I finished teaching my quantitative methods grad course this year.
@Lausterna Thanks!!! As they say in academia, there’s always next semester. :)
