“…Participants rated each item on a scale from 1 ( strongly disagree ) to 4 ( strongly agree ), with a higher score indicating higher perceived marginalization. The Cronbach’s α of the perceived marginalization scale in Kim and Baek’s (2021) study was 0.83, and the Cronbach’s α in our study was 0.84.…”

“…We assessed perceived marginalization using a four-item scale that Issmer and Wagner (2015) developed using items from the German GMF survey (Gruppenbezogene Menschenfeindlichkeit; see Heitmeyer and Mansel, 2008 ). We used the Korean version translated by Kim and Baek (2021) . The GMF measures the respondents’ perceived social position or status as a member of a group.…”

“…The GMF measures the respondents’ perceived social position or status as a member of a group. Sample items include: “People like me are worth less than others in Korean society” and “In our society, people like me are not offered any chances.” Kim and Baek (2021) made only one minor modification to the items (modifying “German society” to “Korean society”). Participants rated each item on a scale from 1 ( strongly disagree ) to 4 ( strongly agree ), with a higher score indicating higher perceived marginalization.…”

“…In addition to overt discrimination, marginalized or underserved populations can experience difficulties stemming from the perception that their affiliate groups have lower social positions with less power ( Kim and Baek, 2021 ). Marginalization theory posits that the more one is underprivileged (e.g., those with a migration background, cultural, ethnic, and racial minorities), the more one is aware of society’s unfair gaze or treatment ( Crocker et al, 1998 ; Issmer and Wagner, 2015 ).…”

This study explored the mediating effect of career maturity moderated by intimacy with parents and immigration backgrounds (native- or foreign-born young adults) on the relationship between perceived marginalization and the mental health of young adults with migration backgrounds (having mixed parentage of one Korean and one non-Korean immigrant parent) in South Korea. We collected data from 300 adults aged 25–34 with migration backgrounds (204 born in Korea and 96 born abroad) through the Gallup Research Institute of Korea and conducted a moderated-moderated mediation analysis using Model 21 of PROCESS Macro in SPSS. The analysis showed that career maturity moderated by intimacy with parents and migration backgrounds mediated the relationship between perceived marginalization and mental health. However, the results were only significant for participants who were born abroad and immigrated to Korea, and not for those who were born in Korea. These findings suggest that while greater perceived marginalization leads to lower career maturity and negatively impacts the mental health of foreign-born young adults, higher levels of intimacy with parents can buffer these negative effects.
