The direct effects of religiosity and racial socialization on subjective stigmatization among 50 African-American adolescents were investigated. A stigma is a characteristic about which others hold negative attitudes and stereotypes. Subjective stigmatization measures the degree to which an individual internalizes such negative attitudes and stereotypes toward a social group of which he or she is a member. Participants who showed strong commitment to the church were more destigmatized than were participants who did not. Further, participants who received racial socialization messages stemming from a single "primary" category were more destigmatized than those who did not. Unexpectedly, the more racial socialization messages participants received, the more self-stigmatized they were. The importance of religiosity and racial socialization in the lives of African-American adolescents are discussed.
对50名非裔美国青少年中宗教虔诚度和种族社会化对主观污名化的直接影响进行了调查。污名是他人持有负面态度和刻板印象的一种特征。主观污名化衡量的是个体将这种针对其所属社会群体的负面态度和刻板印象内化的程度。表现出对教会强烈忠诚的参与者比没有表现出的参与者更少受到污名化。此外,接收到源于单一“主要”类别的种族社会化信息的参与者比没有接收到的参与者更少受到污名化。出乎意料的是,参与者收到的种族社会化信息越多,他们自我污名化的程度就越高。文中讨论了宗教虔诚度和种族社会化在非裔美国青少年生活中的重要性。
