背景本研究考察了种族认同、感知歧视和积极青年发展(PYD;即,自我导向能力、人际导向能力、信心、关怀、性格、家庭关系、同伴关系、学校和社区关系、对多样性的积极态度和文化自豪感),这些都是在第二代华裔美国青年中特别确定的。(Ngirl= 93;法师= 14.56,SDage = 1.75)主要来自美国马萨诸塞州的大波士顿地区。结果(1)种族认同与PYD各指标均呈正相关,βs = .32 ~.72,ps < .01;(2)感知歧视与PYD的各项指标均呈负相关(βs = −.15 ~ −.32,ps < .05),人际能力和关怀除外;族群认同在知觉歧视与家庭关系的关系上具有显著的调节作用(β=.23,p < .01).结论研究结果表明,尽管歧视对第二代华裔青年的积极发展有潜在的负面影响,种族认同可能是促进这些青年参与PYD实践中应考虑的关键优势。
BackgroundThe present study examined the associations among ethnic identity, perceived discrimination and multiple indicators of positive youth development (PYD; i.e., intrapersonal‐oriented competence, interpersonal‐oriented competence, confidence, caring, character, family connection, peer connection, school and community connection, positive attitudes towards diversity and cultural pride) that were specifically identified among second‐generation Chinese–American youth.MethodsParticipants were 196 second‐generation Chinese–American youth (Ngirl= 93;Mage= 14.56,SDage= 1.75) primarily from the greater Boston area in MA, United States. Multivariate regression models were estimated to examine the associations between ethnic identity, perceived discrimination, and each potential indicator of PYD, as well as the moderating role of ethnic identity, controlling for key demographics.Results(1) Ethnic identity was positively related to all PYD indicators,βs = .32 to .72,ps < .01; (2) perceived discrimination was negatively associated with all indicators of PYD (βs = −.15 to −.32,ps < .05), except for interpersonal‐oriented competence and caring; and (3) ethnic identity significantly moderated the relationship between perceived discrimination and family connection (β= .23,p< .01).ConclusionsFindings indicate that whereas discrimination has potential negative effects on the positive development of second‐generation Chinese–American youth, ethnic identity may be a key strength that should be considered in PYD promotion practices for these youth.
