The present study was designed to examine acculturative changes, and their effects on mental health and family functioning, in recent-immigrant Hispanic adolescents. A sample of 302 Hispanic adolescents was assessed five times over a 2½-year period. Participants completed measures of Hispanic and U.S. practices, collectivist and individualist values, and ethnic and U.S. identity at each time point. Baseline and Time 5 levels of mental health and family functioning were also assessed. Latent class growth analyses produced two-class solutions for practices, values, and identifications. Adolescents who increased over time in practices and values reported the most adaptive mental health and family functioning. Adolescents who did not change in any acculturation domain reported the least favorable mental health and family functioning.
本研究旨在考察新移民西班牙裔青少年的文化适应变化及其对心理健康和家庭功能的影响。在两年半的时间里，对302名西班牙裔青少年样本进行了五次评估。参与者在每个时间点完成了关于西班牙和美国习俗、集体主义和个人主义价值观以及种族和美国身份认同的测量。还评估了心理健康和家庭功能的基线水平和第5次测量时的水平。潜在类别增长分析得出了习俗、价值观和认同方面的两类解决方案。在习俗和价值观方面随时间增加的青少年报告了最适应性的心理健康和家庭功能。在任何文化适应领域都没有变化的青少年报告的心理健康和家庭功能最不理想。
