The study assessed cultural orientation in a group of 188 Southeast Asian American American-born and early-arriving (by age 5) young adults using the General Ethnicity Questionnaire--Southeast Asian and American versions. The sample included 98 Vietnamese, 45 Cambodian, and 45 Hmong college students in California. As hypothesized and in support of the bidimensional model, overall orientation to ethnic and American cultures were independent of each other, and predicted, respectively, by ethnic and American cultural domains. The three ethnic groups did not vary on level of cultural orientation, but their endorsement of ethnic and American cultures differed across domains. Specifically, they enjoyed American mass media and cultural activities more than ethnic media and activities, and were more fluent in English than their ethnic language. However, they expressed greater ethnic pride and a stronger overall Southeast Asian orientation than American pride and orientation.
该研究使用《通用族裔问卷》（东南亚版和美国版），对188名在美国出生且早年（5岁前）抵达美国的东南亚裔美国年轻人进行了文化取向评估。样本包括加利福尼亚州的98名越南裔、45名柬埔寨裔和45名苗族大学生。正如假设的那样，并支持二维模型，对族裔文化和美国文化的总体取向相互独立，分别由族裔文化领域和美国文化领域预测。这三个族裔群体在文化取向水平上没有差异，但他们对族裔文化和美国文化的认同在不同领域有所不同。具体而言，他们更喜欢美国大众媒体和文化活动，而不是族裔媒体和活动，并且英语比其族裔语言更流利。然而，他们表现出更强的族裔自豪感和更强烈的总体东南亚取向，而不是美国自豪感和取向。
