We review the literature on determinants of ethnic/national self-identities and self-esteem as a prelude to examining these outcomes among a large, statistically representative sample of second generation adolescents in Madrid and Barcelona. While these psycho-social outcomes are malleable, they still represent important dimensions of immigrant adaptation and can have significant consequences both for individual mobility and collective mobilizations. Current theories are largely based on data from the USA and other Anglophone countries. The availability of a new large Spanish survey allows us to test those theories in an entirely different socio-cultural context. The analysis concludes with a structural equations model that summarizes key determinants of national identities and self-esteem among children of immigrants in Spain. Theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.
我们回顾了关于民族/国家认同和自尊决定因素的文献，作为在马德里和巴塞罗那的大量具有代表性的第二代青少年中研究这些结果的前奏。虽然这些心理社会结果是可塑的，但它们仍然是移民适应的重要方面，并可能对个人流动性和集体动员产生重大影响。目前的理论主要基于来自美国和其他英语国家的数据。新的大型西班牙调查的出现使我们能够在完全不同的社会文化背景下检验这些理论。分析的结论是一个结构方程模型，总结了西班牙移民子女的民族认同和自尊的主要决定因素。讨论了这些发现的理论和实际意义。
