The Impact of Level of Acculturation on Self Esteem and Academic Achievement in Asian Americans
Author: Felicia Tran
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781369845426
Category : Electronic dissertations
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
According to the U.S. Census Bureau (2010), the Asian population in the United States grew the fastest compared to any other racial group between 2000 and 2010. With the rapid rise of the Asian population, it becomes concerning that suicide was the leading cause of death in Asians 15-19 years old (Heron, 2016). As the families settle in the United States, they may face obstacles in acculturating. A secondary data analysis was conducted using the Children of Immigrants Longitudinal Study (CILS) dataset. The relationship between an individual's level of acculturation and his or her self-esteem and academic achievement was examined. The relationship between parent-child acculturation gap and individual self-esteem and academic achievement was also examined. The results indicate that individual level of acculturation is positively related to self-esteem and academic achievement. The findings also indicate that an increase in acculturation gap between individuals and their parents is negatively related to self-esteem and positively related to academic achievement.

Guide to Psychological Assessment with Asians
Author: Lorraine T. Benuto
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1493907964
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 479
Book Description
To effectively serve minority clients, clinicians require a double understanding: of both evidence-based practice and the cultures involved. This particularly holds true when working with Asian-Americans, a diverse and growing population. The Guide to Psychological Assessment with Asians synthesizes real-world challenges, empirical findings, clinical knowledge and common-sense advice to create a comprehensive framework for practice. This informed resource is geared toward evaluation of first-generation Asian Americans and recent immigrants across assessment methods (self-report measures, projective tests), settings (school, forensic) and classes of disorders (eating, substance, sexual). While the Guide details cross-cultural considerations for working with Chinese-, Japanese-, Korean and Indian-American clients, best practices are also included for assessing members of less populous groups without underestimating, overstating or stereotyping the role of ethnicity in the findings. In addition, contributors discuss diversity of presentation within groups and identify ways that language may present obstacles to accurate evaluation. Among the areas covered in this up-to-date reference: Structured and semi-structured clinical interviews. Assessment of acculturation, enculturation and culture. IQ testing. Personality disorders. Cognitive decline and dementia. Mood disorders and suicidality. Neuropsychological assessment of children, adolescents and adults. Culture-bound syndromes. Designed for practitioners new to working with Asian clients as well as those familiar with the population, the Guide to Psychological Assessment with Asians is exceedingly useful to neuropsychologists, clinical psychologists, health psychologists and clinical social workers.
