Past research has demonstrated that racial and ethnic discrimination can lead to negative mental health outcomes such as depressive and anxiety symptoms (Kessler, Michelson & Williams, 1999; Wei, Heppner, Ku, & Liao, 2010; Ayalon & Gum, 2011). Negative feelings towards Muslims have increased greatly since the terrorist attacks of September 11th, leading them to be targets of discrimination at much greater rates than the past (Koprowski, 2011). The current study assessed the relationship between discrimination and depressive and anxiety symptoms in a population of 202 Muslim American adults who responded to an online survey. Three aspects of Muslim identity, centrality, private regard, and public regard, were examined as individual moderators in this relationship. Additionally, a profile approach of identity, which considered centrality, private regard, and public regard scales in aggregate, was also utilized, and profiles were examined as possible moderators as well. Bootstrapping techniques of conditional and moderation effect testing were conducted and results revealed that centrality moderated the relation between frequency of discrimination and anxiety symptoms, such that participants who endorsed lower centrality were at increased risk for anxiety symptoms in the context of discrimination. Similarly, private regard moderated the relation between discrimination and anxiety symptoms, such that participants who endorsed lower private regard were at increased risk for anxiety symptoms. Finally, Ward's method was used and four distinct profiles of identity emerged. A trend emerged for the relation between discrimination and anxiety symptoms differing across clusters. These results suggest that Muslim identity plays an important role in an individual's experience and reaction to discriminatory events.
