Beyond Affirmation

Abstract: Identity development is a dynamic process which involves reconciling multiple messages. While ethnic minority adolescents' development is affected profoundly by discrimination, positive racial/ethnic encounters can also transform one's identity. Questionnaire data were gathered from 122 tenth-grade Mexican Americans in a low-performing school that had over 60% “Hispanic” students. Based on the data, 12 second-generation youth were selected for interviews based on their level of academic engagement and experien… Show more

We considered possible transactional effects among these constructs, and between ethnic pride and self-esteem (Sameroff, 2009).…”
