Book Synopsis Types and Cultural Sources of Social Support by : Elisa Hernandez

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there have been great strides in acculturation research, social support has not been adequately researched through the lens of acculturation. The available literature indicates that a bicultural acculturation strategy and high levels of social support are associated with beneficial outcomes for both physical and mental health (Berry, 2005; Sarason & Sarason, 2009). Furthermore, social support from both the heritage and host cultures are associated with optimal development for Latin@s (Finch & Vega, 2003; Jasinskaja-Lahti et al., 2006). Discrimination, however, can directly affect both well-being and stress (Crockett et al., 2007). To date, the connections between these constructs have been examined generally, but the specific mechanisms throughout which this process occurs have not been fully explored. The present study will investigate the connection between social support, discrimination, well-being, and stress for individuals who endorse a bicultural acculturation strategy. More specifically, it will examine how certain types of support from identified cultural sources influence the positive outcomes that are often associated with the social support literature. A sample of 161 bicultural Mexican-American college students participated in the present study. Results indicated that Mexican/Mexican-American peer emotional and appraisal support had important positive implications for subjective well-being. Mexican/Mexican-American peer emotional support actually moderated the negative effects of discrimination on subjective well-being. European American peer informational support negatively impacted subjective well-being. Understanding how culture influences the connection between social support, well-being, and stress is important for informing prevention programs that can support academic and psychological success. Future directions and implications for bicultural college students are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined perceived social support, levels of acculturation, and variables, such as gender and age, in relation to psychological adjustment with 35 urban 11-14 year old Latino students. The Short Acculturation Scale for Hispanic-Youth, (SASH-Y) (Barona & Miller, 1994), the Network of Relationship Inventory (NRI) (Furman & Buhrmeister, 1985), and the Youth Self Report (YSR) (Achenbach, 2001) were used in this study. Students were asked to rank perceived social support for relationships with their mother, father, a sibling, a relative, a friend, and an "extra person" of their choice (someone outside of immediate family). A marginally significant relationship was found suggesting that students who reported higher perceived social support from their father demonstrated better overall psychological adjustment. Lower perceived social support from their father in more highly acculturated children indicated higher Internalizing scores, but no group difference was noted for the low acculturation group. Higher perceived social support from their father was found with more highly acculturated children. Both lower perceived father social support and a higher level of acculturation were associated with higher Internalizing scores on the YSR. Results indicated a significant interaction suggesting that students with higher acculturation levels and higher "extra person" support demonstrated better psychological adjustment; however, less acculturated students with higher "extra person" support demonstrated worse psychological adjustment. Both age and grade were positively correlated with Externalizing scores. Children's Externalizing scores were also negatively correlated with level of acculturation. More highly acculturated children demonstrated higher Internalizing scores. Female students were found to report stronger friend perceived social support. This study underscores the need to investigate levels of acculturation in studies investigating social support with Latino children, as well as the importance of investigating specific relationships (i.e., father) and specific categories of psychological adjustment in order that complex relationships among these constructs can be better understood.

Book Synopsis Mexican American Adolescents' Acculturation and Assimilation by : Bianca Martinez-Salazar
Download or read book Mexican American Adolescents' Acculturation and Assimilation written by Bianca Martinez-Salazar and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper proposes an integrative counseling support group that incorporates principles from both multicultural and collectivist perspectives. The counseling group involves Mexican American adolescents and Mexican parents who have witnessed marginalization, acculturation, biculturalism, and lack of mental education; moreover, the proposed integrative approach combines cultural values of familismo, personalismo, and narrative and relational cultural therapy. A summary of the research documented the effectiveness of using these therapies with the Mexican population. The literature review suggested that group counseling helps Mexican parents and adolescents to feel connected and understood and features their collectivist views as strengths that can also support their community. The 13-week group employs a variety of approaches to give parents and adolescents tools they can use outside of group therapy such as the interventions of finding connections with others, mutual empathy, active listening, storytelling, and expressive narrative arts that can help alleviate symptoms of mental illness. Integrative theories have shown that Mexican families can become more resilient and improve symptoms of depression, anxiety, and increase feelings of togetherness, self-esteem, and joy. Although research is needed, the benefits of the proposed group can include improving family acceptance, support, and increase of mental support.
