The Twenty Statements Test (TST) was administered in Seoul and New York, to 454 students from 2 cultures that emphasize collectivism and individualism, respectively. Responses, coded into 33 categories, were classified as either abstract or specific and as either autonomous or social. These 2 dichotomies were more independent in Seoul than in New York. The New York sample included Asian American whose spontaneous social identities differed. They either never listed ethnicity-nationality on the TST, or listed it once or twice. Unidentified Asian Americans' self-concepts resembled Euro-Americans' self-concepts, and twice identified Asian Americans' self-concepts resembled Koreans' self-concepts, in both abstractness-specificity and autonomy-sociality. Differential acculturation did not account for these results. Implications for social identity, self-categorization, and acculturation theory are discussed.
在首尔和纽约对454名分别来自强调集体主义和个人主义两种文化的学生进行了二十陈述测验（TST）。回答被编码为33个类别，分为抽象或具体以及自主或社会两类。这两个二分法在首尔比在纽约更具独立性。纽约的样本包括自发社会身份不同的亚裔美国人。他们要么在TST中从未列出种族 - 国籍，要么列出过一两次。在抽象性 - 具体性和自主性 - 社会性方面，未明确身份的亚裔美国人的自我概念类似于欧裔美国人的自我概念，而两次明确身份的亚裔美国人的自我概念类似于韩国人的自我概念。不同的文化适应并不能解释这些结果。文中还讨论了这些结果对社会身份、自我分类和文化适应理论的启示。
