Updated systematic review and meta-analysis of studies examining the relationship between reported racism and health and well-being for children and youth: A protocol

Abstract

Racism is a critical determinant of health and health inequities for children and youth. This protocol aims to update the first systematic review conducted by Priestet al(2013), including a meta-analysis of findings. Based on previous empirical data, it is anticipated that child and youth health will be negatively impacted by racism. Findings from this review will provide updated evidence of effect sizes across outcomes and identify moderators and mediators of relationships between racism and health. This systematic review and meta-analysis will include studies that examine associations between experiences of racism and racial discrimination with health outcomes of children and youth aged 0–..
