本文报告了跨种族/跨种族收养、非种族收养/同一种族群体以及非裔美国人和墨西哥裔美国儿童的种族认同和自尊比较研究的元分析综述结果。六项研究，包括一项分四个阶段的纵向研究，符合既定标准。计算研究水平效应大小。此外，还计算了29个独立测量效应大小。总体上，跨种族收养对种族/民族认同和自尊的组合变量有负面影响(d=-0.3775，p=.001)。当单独考虑种族认同时，效应大小增加(d=-0.5220，p<；0.01)。与自尊相关的效应大小在统计上并不显著，尽管注意到了一个积极的方向。测试未能在纳入的研究中实现同质性。研究参与者的年龄是一个调节变量。还确定了其他几个潜在的主持人。最后讨论了研究结果对未来研究的影响。
This paper reports the results of a meta-analytic review of comparative studies of racial identity and self-esteem in transracially/transethnically-adopted, inracially-adopted/same ethnic group, and biologic African-American and Mexican-American children. Six studies, including one longitudinal study with four phases, met the established criteria. Study level effect sizes were calculated. Twenty-nine dependent measure effect sizes were also calculated. There was an overall effect, in the negative direction, of transracial adoption on a combined variable of racial/ethnic identity and self-esteem (d = -0.3775, p = .001). The effect size increased when racial identity was considered separately (d = -0.5220, p < .01). Effect size associated with self-esteem was not statistically significant, although a positive direction was noted. Tests failed to achieve homogeneity among included studies. Age of study participant was a moderating variable. Several other potential moderators were also identified. Results are discussed in terms of implications for future research.
