Over 7.5 million Black Americans have a documented mental health disorder, with up to 7.5 million more Black Americans experiencing symptoms from an undiagnosed mental health disorder (Ward, Clark, & Heidrich, 2009). Black women are overrepresented when considering the population of individuals who have or are currently experiencing symptoms associated with mental illness such as depression (Ward et al., 2009) Research suggests that Black women are susceptile to mental illness as a result of the stressors associated with their intersectional identies of being being both Black and female(Abrams, Maxwell, Pope, & Belgrave, 2014).The purpose of the current study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the Thomas Depression Inventory-Black Women (TDI-BW). Using Black Feminist Theory and Social-Ecological Theory as a conceptual framework, the researcher developed an 17-item instrument (i.e. TDI-BW) that measures the stressors experienced by Black women that contributes to their experience of depression. Additionally, the current study examined if the experience of the stressors as measured by the TDI-BW vary considering Black women's age, income, and education.Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) revealed four clear factors embedded in the TDIBW that contributes to Black women's stress. The four factors identified were: a) social supports and resources, b) self-concept, c) burnout, and d) discrimination. The current study suggests that as Black women experience more stressors related to a lack of social supports and resources, self-concept, burnout, and discrimination, they become susceptible to mental health disorders such as depression.A series of One- Way ANOVAs showed a significant difference between Black women's social supports and resources and their age and income. One-way ANOVAs showed a significant difference between Black women's self-concept and their age and income. One-Way ANOVAs revealed that Black women, age 18-54 years old were homogenous in their stressors related to burnout. One-Way ANOVAs revealed that Black women with an educational endorsement of trade/technical/vocational training and Black women with an educational endorsement of an Associate's degree, Bachelor's degree and Master's degree were homogenous in their experience of stressors related to burnout and discrimination.One-Way ANOVAs revealed a significant difference between Black women's experience of discrimination and their age and income. Implications for practice and future research are also discussed.
