Abstract

Abstract In this study using both qualitative and quantitative analysis, we coded the types and community prevalence of racial microaggressions (RMAs) and adoption microaggressions (AMAs) experienced and reported by White adoptive families with children adopted from China. Analyses examined differences in microaggressions reported by transracial adoptive families living in communities varying in racial-ethnic diversity. All families experienced RMAs and/or AMAs. Community diversity was only related to the number of RMAs experienced, and specific microaggressions were significantly related to diversity level. Parents’ interpretation of microaggressions differed based on diversity level.

父母和他们收养的中国孩子:不同社区的收养和种族微侵犯

摘要在这项研究中，我们使用定性和定量分析，对从中国收养儿童的白人收养家庭经历和报告的种族微侵犯（RMA）和收养微侵犯（AMA）的类型和社区流行率进行了编码。分析调查了生活在种族多样性不同的社区中的跨种族收养家庭报告的微侵犯行为的差异。所有家庭都经历过RMA和/或AMA。群落多样性仅与经历的RMA数量有关，特定的微侵犯与多样性水平显著相关。父母对微侵犯的解释因多样性水平而异。

期刊介绍： Adoption Quarterly is an unparalleled forum for examining the issues of child care, of adoption as viewed from a lifespan perspective, and of the psychological and social meanings of the word "family." This international, multidisciplinary journal features conceptual and empirical work, commentaries, and book reviews from the fields of the social sciences, humanities, biological sciences, law, and social policy. In addition to examining ethical, biological, financial, social and psychological adoption issues, Adoption Quarterly addresses continuity in adoption issues that are important to both practitioners and researchers, such as: negotiation of birth and adoptive family contact.
