Book Asian American Help seeking Attitudes in Relation to Ethnic Belongingness and American Identity

Download or read book Asian American Help seeking Attitudes in Relation to Ethnic Belongingness and American Identity written by Jasmine Bartolome and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: This study investigated the relationship between multiethnic identities and help-seeking attitudes among Asian Americans. Hypothesis: Asian Americans with a strong sense of American identity will show a more favorable help seeking attitude and those with a strong sense of ethnic identity will show a less favorable help seeking attitude. Women have a greater help seeking attitude compared to men. Methods: Participants (N=101) completed an online survey about ethnic identity, American identity, and help seeking attitudes. Results: Ethnic identity and American identity did not show a significant relationship. Ethnic identity and American identity did not yield a significant relationship with help-seeking attitudes. Lastly, gender did not produce a significant association with help-seeking attitude. Discussion: American identity and ethnic identity moved in the positive direction, so the theory of biculturalism was examined. The positive direction between ethnic identity and help-seeking attitudes supports prior research that ethnic identity might be a protective factor that assists in seeking help. On the other hand, American identity was inverse to help-seeking attitudes, which is contrary to numerous studies about the Westernized perspective of help-seeking attitudes. Possible implications to social work is the consideration of incorporating ethnic identity discovery during therapy sessions and celebrating cultural diversity within our society.

Book Dynamics of Ethnic Identity

Download or read book Dynamics of Ethnic Identity written by Jae-Hyup Lee and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comparative study of the Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese American communities in Philadelphia shows that each Asian American community maintains its own internal cultural boundaries, which are used to cultivate differences that become institutionalized over time. Socially constructed boundaries, such as ethnicity, gender, class and generation, intersect within and among ethnic groups. Based on a social anthropological framework, this study describes the mechanism of ethnic and class identity formations, and shows how identities are institutionalized through various organizations. By unraveling the complexity of Asian American communities and their boundary strategies, this study provides a look at the new political processes which Asian Americans are creating in a variety of social settings. Also includes maps. (Ph.D. dissertation, University of Pennsylvania, 1994; revised with new preface, introduction)

Book Struggle for Ethnic Identity

Download or read book Struggle for Ethnic Identity written by Pyong Gap Min and published by Rowman Altamira. This book was released on 1999 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Pyong Gap Min and Rose Kim present a compilation of narratives on ethnic identity written by first-, 1.5-, and second-generation Asian American professionals. In an attempt to reconcile the dichotomies long associated with being both Asian and American, these narratives trace the formation of each author's ethnic identity and discuss its importance in shaping his or her professional career. The narratives touch upon common themes of prejudice and discrimination, loss and retention of ethnic subculture, ethnic versus non-ethnic friendship networks, and racial and inter-racial dating patterns. When coupled with Dr. Min's comprehensive introductory chapter on contemporary trends in the study of ethnicity, these narratives prove that constructing one's ethnicity is truly a dynamic process and serve as an invaluable resource for anyone interested in teaching or studying the concepts of ethnic identity.

  • Release : 2019-04-04
  • ISBN : 1532634722
  • Pages : 216 pages

Download or read book Disciplined by Race written by Ki Joo Choi and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-04-04 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be Asian American? Should Asian American identity be construed primarily in cultural terms or racial terms? And why should contemporary theology care about such questions? Disciplined by Race: Theological Ethics and the Problem of Asian American Identity reveals the critical importance of Asian American experience for contemporary theological debates on race. The book challenges readers to move beyond conventional perceptions of Asian Americans as model minorities and to confront the ways in which Asian Americans are socially restrained by whiteness. Rather than being insulated from the logics of white racism in the modern United States, being Asian American is tragically defined by those logics. Coming to grips with how Asian Americans are disciplined by race reveals the prospects for Asian American self-determination and raises the question of whether resistance to the social demands and allure of whiteness is realistically possible, for Asian Americans and non-Asian Americans alike.
