Abstract

Models of resilience in minoritized youth posit that youth need to draw upon multiple different cultural (e.g., identity, values, etc.) and general factors (e.g., coping) to thrive in the face of discrimination. Nonetheless, the integration of these factors in empirical scholarship is lacking, as scholars have typically focused on single factors within these models in isolation. To provide a more holistic test of these theoretical models, we utilized latent profile analysis, a technique well-suited to examine the simultaneous impact of multiple factors, to identify patterns of cultural promotive factors (ethnic-racial identity, religious coping, and familism) and a general coping factor (shift-&-persist) in 694 minoritized (M_age = 17.24, 73.5% women, 46.1% black) youth. We observed four profiles: High Cultural High Coping, Average Cultural Average Coping, Low Religious Low Coping, and Low Cultural Low Coping. Despite a lack of developmental differences, several profile differences emerged with respect to gender, race, and socioeconomic status. Additionally, Average Promotive Average Coping youth experienced the greatest amount of discrimination. Finally, after accounting for the effects of discrimination and covariates, those in the High Cultural High Coping profile displayed fewer depressive symptoms than those in the Average Cultural Average Coping and Low Religious Low Coping profiles.

少数民族青少年的文化和应对因素模式：歧视与抑郁症状的关联

摘要少数群体青年的复原力模型认为，青年需要利用多种不同的文化因素（如身份、价值观等）和一般因素（如应对），才能在歧视面前茁壮成长。然而，在实证研究中缺乏对这些因素的整合，因为学者们通常孤立地关注这些模型中的单一因素。为了对这些理论模型进行更全面的检验，我们采用了潜特征分析法（一种非常适合研究多种因素同时影响的技术），在 694 名少数族裔（年龄 = 17.24，73.5% 为女性，46.1% 为黑人）青年中找出了文化促进因素（民族-种族认同、宗教应对和家庭主义）和一般应对因素（转变-&-persist）的模式。我们观察到四种情况：高文化高应对、普通文化普通应对、低宗教低应对和低文化低应对。尽管缺乏发展差异，但在性别、种族和社会经济地位方面出现了一些特征差异。此外，"平均促进平均应对 "型青少年受到的歧视最多。最后，在考虑了歧视和协变因素的影响后，高文化高应对能力青少年比普通文化普通应对能力青少年和低宗教低应对能力青少年表现出更少的抑郁症状。
