来自拉丁美洲（41%）、亚洲（38%）和欧洲（21%）背景的九年级学生（N = 679，男女各占50%）报告了他们的种族认同、家庭态度和关系。青少年还在两周内完成了家庭互动的每日清单。结果表明，通过探索和归属测量的民族认同与家庭义务和帮助的关系比亲子亲密和家庭休闲时间的关系更强。与欧洲背景的青少年相比，来自拉丁美洲和亚洲背景的青少年报告的义务和援助水平明显更高，这些种族差异是由种族认同介导的。纵向分析显示了持续的联系，种族认同预测了一年后的尊重和义务。讨论的重点是种族认同在青少年时期儿童家庭联系中的作用。
Ninth graders (N = 679; 50% male, 50% female) from Latin American (41%), Asian (38%), and European (21%) backgrounds reported on their ethnic identity and family attitudes and relationships. Adolescents also completed daily checklists of family interactions over a two-week period. Results indicated that ethnic identity, measured through exploration and belonging was more strongly associated with family obligation and assistance than with parent-child closeness and family leisure time. Adolescents from Latin American and Asian backgrounds reported significantly higher levels of obligation and assistance as compared to adolescents with European backgrounds, and these ethnic differences were mediated by ethnic identity. Longitudinal analyses indicated ongoing associations, with ethnic identity predicting respect and obligation one year later. The discussion focuses on the role of ethnic identity in children's family connectedness during adolescence.
