Abstract
This chapter reviews the neural and physiological mechanisms that may underlie socioeconomic disparities in global mental health through a cultural neuroscience lens. First, it discusses the cultural and psychological processes (namely, interdependence and “cultural mismatch”) that may be experienced by individuals with lower socioeconomic status (SES) and could contribute to alterations in physiological and neural responses to stress and consequently put individuals at greater risk for the development of depression and anxiety. Next, it discusses the physiological systems, both peripheral (e.g., hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, autonomic nervous system, inflammation) and central (e.g., brain structure and function), that are implicated in responding to stress and confer risk for negative mental health outcomes, and how these systems are modulated by SES. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the resilience factors that might promote better outcomes among lower-SES individuals and the ethical and scientific considerations involved in this field of study.
