Explaining the Asian American Youth Paradox: Universal Factors versus Asian American Family Process Among Filipino and Korean American Youth.

Abstract:

:This study used longitudinal survey data of Filipino American and Korean American youth to examine ways in which universal factors (e.g., peer antisocial behaviors and parent-child conflict) and Asian American (AA) family process variables (e.g., gendered norms) independently and collectively predict grade point average (GPA), externalizing, and internalizing problems. We aimed to explain the "Asian American youth paradox" in which low externalizing problems and high GPA coexist with high internalizing problems. We found that universal factors were extensively predictive of youth problems and remained robust when AA family process was accounted for. AA family process also independently explained youth development and, in part, the AA youth paradox. For example, gendered norms increased mental distress. Academic controls did the opposite of what it is intended, that is, had a negative impact on GPA as well as other developmental domains. Family obligation, assessed by family-centered activities and helping out, was beneficial to both externalizing and internalizing youth outcomes. Parental implicit affection, one of the distinct traits of AA parenting, was beneficial, particularly for GPA. This study provided important empirical evidence that can guide cross-cultural parenting and meaningfully inform intervention programs for AA youth. :Este estudio utilizó datos de una encuesta longitudinal de jóvenes filipinoamericanos y coreanoamericanos para analizar las maneras en las que los factores universales (p. ej.:las conductas antisociales entre pares y el conflicto entre padres e hijos) y las variables de los procesos familiares asiáticoamericanos (p. ej.: las normas de género) predicen independientemente y colectivamente el promedio de calificaciones y los problemas interiorizados y exteriorizados. Nos propusimos explicar la “paradoja de los jóvenes asiáticoamericanos” en la cual un bajo grado de problemas exteriorizados y un alto promedio de calificaciones coexisten con un alto grado de problemas interiorizados. Descubrimos que los factores universales fueron en gran parte predictivos de los problemas de los jóvenes y se mantuvieron firmes cuando se tuvo en cuenta el proceso familiar asiáticoamericano. El proceso familiar asiáticoamericano también explicó independientemente el desarrollo de los jóvenes y, en parte, la paradoja de los jóvenes asiáticoamericanos. Por ejemplo, las normas de género aumentaron el distrés mental. Los controles académicos hicieron lo opuesto a lo deseado, por ejemplo, tuvieron un efecto negativo en el promedio de calificaciones así como en otras áreas del desarrollo. La obligación familiar, evaluada por actividades centradas en la familia y por la colaboración, fue beneficiosa tanto para los resultados exteriorizados como interiorizados de los jóvenes. El afecto implícito de los padres, uno de los rasgos distintivos de la crianza de los asiáticoamericanos, fue beneficioso, particularmente para el promedio de calificaciones. Este estudio ofreció importante conocimiento empírico que puede guiar la crianza intercultural y respaldar de manera significativa programas de intervención para jóvenes asiáticoamericanos. :本研究所使用的调查数据来源于菲律宾裔美国青少年和韩国裔美国青少年。此项长 期研究旨在研究普遍因素(诸如同龄人反社会行为和亲子冲突)和亚裔美国人(AA)家庭 内部作用变量(例如性别规范)如何能分别独立地以及综合起来预测GPA、外部化的问题 和内部化的问题。我们致力于解释”亚裔美国青少年悖论”,这个悖论指的是外部化的问 题低和GPA 高的同时内部化的问题高。我们的研究发现普遍因素对青少年问题具有广泛的 预测性,而且考虑到AA 家庭内部作用来解释时,这些因素仍然起着重要作用。AA 家庭内 部作用也独立解释了青少年发展,而且部分地解释了AA 青少年悖论。例如,性别规范增 加了精神痛苦。学术控制反而造成与其初衷相反的结果,即对GPA 和其他发展领域产生了 负面影响。通过以家庭为中心的活动和帮助他人来评估家庭责任义务,这样做对外化和内 化青少年成果有益处。父母对子女的情感含蓄而不外显是AA 家庭教育子女的显著特征之 一,对GPA 尤其有益。本研究提供了重要的经验证据,可以指导跨文化的亲子教育,并为 AA 青少年的干预计划提供有意义的信息。.
