abstract="The present research examined optimistic and pessimistic bias in the prediction of positive and negative physical and psychological health outcomes between European American and Asian American college students. Results of between-group and within-group analyses indicated both similarities and differences in predictions for health outcomes. Sex differences were also found. Taken together, these findings point to a need to consider both culture and sex differences in the prediction of health.<p />",
