Based on Asian Indian and Korean
Keywords:
diabetes, Asian Indian, Korean, ImmigrantAbstract
Despite Asian Americans having lower diabetes rates than the US-born population, they are 40% more likely to be diagnosed with diabetes compared to non-Hispanic Whites. This study explores the discrepancies between subjective and objective measures of diabetes knowledge among Asian Indian and Korean immigrants. Data was gathered from members of Asian Indian temples and Korean churches, totaling 111 responses (55 Indian and 56 Korean). Structural equation modeling (SEM) was employed to compare these measures. Findings highlight the significant divergence between self-reported diabetes and objective measures like glucose levels. To counter biased research, it is recommended to utilize both subjective and objective measures and propose diabetes management strategies for Asian Indians and Koreans.
