Active Agents in Mental Health Socialization
Parents are the primary socializing agents from whom youth learn about mental health and help-seeking. Yet youth are not passive receivers, rather, they engage in an active process of interpreting parental messages regarding mental health. To understand this bidirectional process of mental health socialization, we developed and tested a new measure, the Youth Response to Parental Mental Health Socialization (YR-PMHS) scale, to assess how youth in…
Mental health service use among Filipino American and Korean American young adults during the Covid‐19 pandemic
Despite the heightened mental health challenges amid rising Anti‐Asian sentiment, Asian Americans have significantly underutilized mental health services, a trend that persisted even before the COVID‐19 pandemic. Although considerable efforts have been made to understand how various factors are related to mental health service use in this population, research integrating these multiple factors in a single study, with a specific focus on ethnic di…
The protective and promotive effects of parent racial–ethnic socialization on Asian American adolescents’ psychosocial well-being
Families of color often face daily racist incidents that lead to dynamic interactions and race-based messaging between parents and children; however, few studies have examined this phenomenon in Asian American families. Using 60 days of daily-diary data from a national sample of 108 adolescents (53.7% girls; range = 11-18-year-old; M age = 14.8 years, SD age = 1.7, 29.6% low-income), this study examined (a) how different forms of parental racial-…
Mental Health Service Utilization, School Experiences, and Religious Involvement Among a National Sample of Black Adolescents Who Attempted Suicide
A Pathway to Positive Youth Development
This study used longitudinal survey data of Filipino American and Korean American youth in the Chicago Metropolitan area ( N = 786, M AGE = 15.00, SD = 1.91 at Wave 1 in 2014) to examine whether and how a set of organized predictors (i.e., universal predictors of youth outcomes and cultural orientations) independently and collectively explains internalizing and externalizing problems and academic performance. The results were that universal predi…
Impact of Perceived Racial Discrimination on Depressive Symptoms and School Outcomes Among Asian American Youth
Using two survey datasets--the Korean American Families(KAF) Project and the Cross Cultural Families(CCF) Project, this study examined how perceived racial discrimination influences depressive symptoms and school outcomes among Asian American adolescents, and what factors mediate the association between perceived discrimination and youth outcomes, focusing on Korean American(KA) youth ( n =220), Cambodian American(CA) youth (n=164), and Vietnames…
Parental socialization of mental health in Chinese American families
Parental mental health socialization is a process by which parents shape how youth develop and maintain beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors regarding mental health and help‐seeking behaviors. Although culture shapes parental mental health socialization, few studies have examined specific parental socialization practices regarding mental health and help‐seeking, especially as a culturally anchored process. Using a qualitative approach, this study ex…
Correlates of Stigma Toward Mental Health Service Use Among Filipino Americans and Korean Americans
Culturally attuned engagement
Evidence remains limited on culturally competent practices that enhance the engagement of Asian American immigrants in mental health services. This study examines engagement practices by social service providers in community-based organizations, using secondary qualitative data from six provider focus groups (N = 47) and five Chinese, Vietnamese, and Cambodian immigrant client focus groups (N = 36). Thematic analysis revealed that culturally attu…
Racial Stereotypes and Asian American Youth Paradox
Racial discrimination and the moderating effects of racial and ethnic socialization on the mental health of Asian American youth
This study investigates trajectories of racial discrimination, racial and ethnic socialization (RES), and their interaction effects with social positions (nativity and gender) on mental health. A longitudinal study of 786 Filipino American (FA) and Korean American (KA) youth from the Midwestern United States (M age.Wave1 = 15) confirmed that discrimination increased and significantly contributed to the upward trend of mental health distress, wher…
