永久的外国人刻板印象和双文化管理困难是亚裔美国人经常经历的两个未被充分研究的文化适应压力。这项研究扩展了家庭压力模型，通过父母间和亲子关系过程，探讨父母对这两种文化适应压力的经历如何与高中和成年初期的青少年适应措施（抑郁症状、犯罪行为和学业成绩）相关。参与者是北加州的 350 名华裔美国青少年（M（年龄）= 17.04，58% 为女性）及其父母。路径模型表明，父母文化压力源与亲子冲突呈正相关，要么直接（对于母亲-青少年和父亲-青少年二人组），要么通过父母间冲突间接（仅对于母亲-青少年二人组）。随后，父母间和亲子冲突都与父母和青少年之间的疏离感呈正相关，进而与青少年在母亲-青少年和父亲-青少年二人组中更多的抑郁症状、更多的犯罪行为和较低的学业成绩相关。这些影响从高中一直持续到成年初期。研究结果强调了母亲和父亲文化压力源通过涉及父母间和亲子关系的家庭过程对青少年适应的间接影响。
Perpetual foreigner stereotype and bicultural management difficulty are two understudied acculturative stressors frequently experienced by Asian Americans. This study expanded the family stress model to examine how parental experiences of these two acculturative stressors relate to measures of adolescent adjustment (depressive symptoms, delinquent behaviors, and academic performance) during high school and emerging adulthood through interparental and parent-child relationship processes. Participants were 350 Chinese American adolescents (M (age) = 17.04, 58 % female) and their parents in Northern California. Path models showed that parental acculturative stressors positively related to parent-child conflict, either directly (for both mother-adolescent and father-adolescent dyads) or indirectly through interparental conflict (for mother-adolescent dyads only). Subsequently, both interparental and parent-child conflict positively related to a sense of alienation between parents and adolescents, which then related to more depressive symptoms, more delinquent behaviors, and lower academic performance in adolescents, for mother-adolescent and father-adolescent dyads. These effects persisted from high school to emerging adulthood. The results highlight the indirect effects of maternal and paternal acculturative stressors on adolescent adjustment through family processes involving interparental and parent-child relationships.
