This longitudinal study examined whether the risk and positive factors contributing to the delinquent behaviors and internalizing
problems of 454 Latino adolescents varied across maternal linguistic acculturation and adolescent gender. Although the level
of cumulative risk to which the 10-to-14-year old adolescents were exposed did not vary by maternal linguistic acculturation,
the factors contributing to their subsequent adjustment 16 months later varied substantially. Multiple regression analyses
showed that for boys, maternal monitoring offset cumulative risk effects in the high acculturation group, but was unrelated
to adjustment in the low acculturation group. Social competence served a protective function for boys in the high acculturation
group, but was detrimental for boys in the low acculturation group and mother-son relationship quality directly predicted
more subsequent delinquent behaviors among boys in the low acculturation group. Maternal monitoring was the only positive
factor contributing to girls’ adjustment, directly predicting fewer delinquent behaviors for all girls.

Associations among neighborhood disadvantage, maternal acculturation, parenting and conduct problems were investigated in
a sample of 444 Chinese American adolescents. Adolescents (54% female, 46% male) ranged from 12 to 15 years of age (mean age = 13.0 years).
Multilevel modeling was employed to test the hypothesis that the association between maternal acculturation and adolescents’
conduct problems could be explained by differences in mothers’ reliance on monitoring and harsh discipline. In addition, guided
by segmented assimilation theory, measures of neighborhood disadvantage were expected not only to be related to differences
in parenting, but also to moderate the effects of maternal acculturation on parenting. Results indicated that increased maternal
acculturation was related to higher levels of maternal monitoring and lower levels of harsh discipline, which, in turn, were
related to lower levels of adolescents’ conduct problems. Hierarchical linear modeling results revealed that neighborhood
disadvantage was related to lower levels of maternal monitoring. However, neighborhood disadvantage did not moderate the link
between maternal acculturation and parenting practices.

This study explored how immigrants locate themselves in a new culture through analyzing 25 Korean immigrants' everyday activities in New Zealand. The findings suggest that they opted to either behave in Korean ways or to take up behaviors reflective of the receiving society, based on their level of control over activities disrupted by immigration. The findings supplement the concept of acculturation, explaining how 21st-century immigrants who retain transnational status engage in the acculturation process within a globalized context. 相似文献

This study examined gender, family structure, SES and language usage as predictors of cultural orientation and family cohesion.
Ethnic differences in trajectories of family cohesion were tested within a hierarchical linear modeling framework. The sample
consisted of 4156 adolescent respondents, measured at three time points during three consecutive years. The three study groups
consisted of Mexican Americans oriented to Mexican culture (N = 738), Mexican Americans oriented to majority American culture (N = 867), and Non-Hispanic Whites (N = 2551). Family cohesion was assessed using the cohesion subscale of the Family Adaptability and Cohesion Scale (FACES III).
Analyses consisted of hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) in which a linear trajectory of family cohesion for the three groups
was computed followed by a test for the effects of ethnicity with the inclusion of control variables. Thus, ethnic differences
in the trajectories of family cohesion over time were examined. Neither group of Mexican Americans was significantly different
from Non-Hispanic Whites in initial status. However, Mexican Americans oriented to Mexican culture showed a significant increase
in family cohesion at mid adolescence.

Abstract Health is one of the major challenges facing Africa today. Solutions need to come from within and outside Africa, drawing from Africa's indigenous knowledge systems. This article describes the life cycles of malaria, tuberculosis and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and presents some strategies for the control and prevention of these diseases that are lessons and experiences from African countries. 相似文献
