本文主要探讨拉丁美洲移民第二文化习得的文化适应模式。在文化适应模型中,比较了同化理论和交替理论两种理论框架。实证研究结果表明,同化是负面健康行为和心理健康问题增加的风险因素。相反,双文化主义似乎是一个新兴的保护因素,缓冲同化压力,提高社会认知功能,提高学业成绩。对双文化技能培训干预措施的回顾表明,这些方案在降低问题行为的风险方面是有效的。最后,提出了一个精炼的双文化技能培训的拉丁裔移民家庭的文化适应研究文献和广泛的采访,在北卡罗来纳州的拉丁裔家庭的基础上。
This paper focuses on the acculturation model of second-culture-acquisition for Latino immigrants. Two theoretical frameworks, assimilation and alternation theories, are compared within the acculturation model. Empirical research findings suggest that assimilation is a risk factor for increases in negative health behaviors and mental health problems. Conversely, biculturalism appears to be an emerging protective factor that buffers assimilation stress, enhances socio-cognitive functioning, and increases academic achievement. A review of bicultural skills training interventions shows these programs are effective in decreasing the risk for problematic behavior. Finally, a refined model of bicultural skills training for Latino immigrant families is proposed based on the acculturation research literature and extensive interviews with Latino families in North Carolina.
