We examined the relationship between collective self-esteem (i.e., the value one places on being part of a collective group), acculturation, and alcohol-related consequences in a sample of 442 Asian American young adults. We found that membership self-esteem and public collective self-esteem interacted with acculturation such that low levels of both predicted greater rates of consequences. Participants with lower acculturation and greater private collective self-esteem experienced more alcohol consequences. This study suggests that differential aspects of collective self-esteem may serve as protective or risk factors for Asian American young adults depending on degree of acculturation.
我们在一个由442名亚裔美国青年成年人组成的样本中，研究了集体自尊（即个人对成为集体一员所赋予的价值）、文化适应与酒精相关后果之间的关系。我们发现，成员自尊和公众集体自尊与文化适应相互作用，二者水平较低都预示着更高的后果发生率。文化适应程度较低且个人集体自尊较高的参与者经历了更多与酒精相关的后果。这项研究表明，集体自尊的不同方面可能会因文化适应程度的不同，对亚裔美国青年成年人起到保护或风险因素的作用。
