“…In the process of youths from multicultural families being a part of our society, the more direct experiences of biculturalism, the higher the bicultural acceptance attitude and multicultural acceptance, so it is believed that awareness improvement education that can increase multicultural understanding and acceptance attitude should be conducted [25]. It was reported that multicultural adolescents' positive attitudes toward Korean culture and foreign culture had a positive effect on school adaptation, and it was suggested that mediation and education to form their identity were necessary to increase their adaptation to school [26]. Multicultural adolescents will be an important human resource in Korean society in the future, and their health is considered to have a great impact on Korean society, so it is necessary to accept and pay attention to friends, parents, schools, and local communities.…”

Based on the ecological integration model, this study examined the factors affecting smoking in adolescents from multicultural families by dividing them into two levels: microsystem and social network factors. The data were from the Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-Based Survey (KYRBS) from 2016 to 2020. It included 4577 respondents whose fathers, mothers, or both, were not born in Korea. The factors affecting smoking among multicultural teenagers were determined by a composite-sample multiple logistic regression analysis. Male smoking rates among multicultural adolescents were 2.49 times higher than female rates in the microsystem. When the father was “Korean” rather than a “Foreigner “, smoking was 0.55 times lower in family factors in terms of social network. In social factors of social networks, multicultural adolescents’ smoking was 12.02 times greater when they were drinking than when they were not, and 3.62 times higher when the answer to the question of whether they had experienced violence was “yes” than “no.” Based on the ecological model in this study, social factors such as drinking, and violence were highly related to smoking. Since multicultural adolescents were closely influenced by the surrounding environment, such as family, school, and social relationship, it was necessary to let parents and schoolteachers be involved in the intervention of smoking of multicultural adolescents so that they can help multicultural adolescents adjust better to school and perform better academically while decreasing risky behaviors for their health, such as drinking and, ultimately, smoking.

“…With the onset of puberty, adolescents are more vulnerable to various risk factors as they encounter physical and emotional changes. Within the context of an ethnically homogenous society like South Korea, multicultural adolescents are more likely to be affected by risk factors, particularly in experiencing identity confusion [1,2]. Considering the significant growth in the number of multicultural families and youths in South Korea, examining changes of ego-resilience among early adolescents of multicultural families may be beneficial in understanding and supporting multicultural adolescents' adaptation to their dynamic environment.…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate the trajectories of multicultural adolescents’ ego-resilience, to compare the effects of neglectful parenting and bilingual competency on the trajectories, and to analyze the longitudinal mediation effect of ego-resilience on these variables’ influence to acculturative stress. In order to accomplish these aims, analysis was conducted using the data of 1,392 adolescents from the Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study. For statistical analysis, AMOS 20.0 was utilized for latent growth modeling and structural equation modeling. Results indicated: (1) a quadratic increase in ego-resilience of multicultural adolescents; (2) a difference in the trajectory of ego-resilience according to gender, with males displaying lower initial values and more rapid growth; (3) significant effects of neglectful parenting and bilingual competency on the trajectories of ego-resilience; and (4) mediating effects of ego-resilience between (a) neglectful parenting and acculturative stress, and (b) bilingual competence and acculturative stress. In accordance with the view of adolescents as prospective leaders in promoting a sustainable future, this study offers insight on the positive psychosocial development and well-being of multicultural adolescents.
