永久的外国人刻板印象认为，在美国白人盎格鲁-撒克逊人占主导地位的社会中，少数族裔的成员总是被视为“他者”，这可能会对他们产生负面影响。本研究的目的是确定意识到这种永久的外国人刻板印象是否能预测身份认同和心理适应。我们对231名亚裔美国人和211名拉丁裔/AS(研究1)、89名非裔美国人(研究2)和56名亚裔美国人和165名拉丁裔/AS(研究3)进行了一系列研究。所有参与者都完成了感受到的歧视、对永久外国人刻板印象的认识、种族和国家认同之间的冲突、对美国文化的归属感以及人口统计学的测量。在研究3中，参与者还完成了心理调整的测量：抑郁、希望和生活满意度。所有参与者都是美国西海岸一所大型公立大学的学生。通过研究，我们发现，即使在控制了感知到的歧视之后，意识到永久的外国人刻板印象也是身份冲突和对美国文化归属感降低的重要预测因素。从研究3中，我们还发现，除了感知到的歧视之外，对永久外国人刻板印象的认识显著预测了亚裔美国人更低的希望和生活满意度，这是拉丁裔/AS更严重抑郁的边缘预测因素。这些结果表明，永久外国人刻板印象可能在少数民族认同和适应中发挥作用。
The perpetual foreigner stereotype posits that members of ethnic minorities will always be seen as the “other” in the White Anglo-Saxon dominant society of the United States, which may have negative implications for them. The goal of the present research was to determine whether awareness of this perpetual foreigner stereotype predicts identity and psychological adjustment. We conducted a series of studies with 231 Asian Americans and 211 Latino/as (Study 1), 89 African Americans (Study 2), and 56 Asian Americans and 165 Latino/as (Study 3). All participants completed measures of perceived discrimination, awareness of the perpetual foreigner stereotype, conflict between ethnic and national identities, sense of belonging to American culture, and demographics. In Study 3, participants also completed measures of psychological adjustment: depression, hope, and life satisfaction. All participants were students at a large, public university on the West Coast of the United States. Across studies, we found that even after controlling for perceived discrimination, awareness of the perpetual foreigner stereotype was a significant predictor of identity conflict and lower sense of belonging to American culture. From Study 3, we also found that, above and beyond perceived discrimination, awareness of the perpetual foreigner stereotype significantly predicted lower hope and life satisfaction for Asian Americans, and that it was a marginal predictor of greater depression for Latino/as. These results suggest that the perpetual foreigner stereotype may play a role in ethnic minority identity and adjustment.
