种族和民族社会化是非裔美国人养育策略的一个组成部分。文献中存在种族和民族社会化的各种概念化和操作化,现有措施有效性的证据有限。本研究的目的是制定一个全面的种族和民族社会化的定义,并验证一个新的措施,称为青少年种族和民族社会化量表(ARESS)。使用验证性因素分析(CFA),从218个非洲裔美国青少年(9-12年级)的研究结果支持种族和民族社会化的多维性。结果还表明,种族和民族的社会化是不同的结构,反映了这种工具的非洲裔美国青年的效用。
Racial and ethnic socialization are an integral part of African American parenting strategies. Varied conceptualizations and operationalizations of racial and ethnic socialization exist within the literature with limited evidence of the validity of existing measures. The purpose of this study is to develop a comprehensive definition of racial and ethnic socialization and to validate a new measure termed the Adolescent Racial and Ethnic Socialization Scale (ARESS). Using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), findings from 218 African American adolescents (grades 9-12) support the multidimensional nature of racial and ethnic socialization. Results also indicate that racial and ethnic socialization are distinct constructs reflecting the utility of this instrument for African American youth.
