Abstract

Acculturation is multidimensional in that it encompasses both heritage and dominant cultural orientations, and it can take place across multiple domains; therefore, biculturalism, an acculturation strategy involving strong orientations to both heritage and dominant cultures, can also occur for the domains of behaviors and practices, values and beliefs, and cultural identity. The current study is the first to compare the relations between biculturalism and self-esteem across these three cultural domains. Mexican American undergraduate students (N = 219; Mage = 18.82 years, SD = 1.09), who were primarily women (72.15%) and born in the US (81.74%), responded to an in-person survey. We found that biculturalism is differentially associated with personal and collective self-esteem depending on the domain, with stronger associations for bicultural behaviors and weaker associations for bicultural values. Our findings highlight the importance of recognizing the multidimensionality of biculturalism in theory, research, and practice.
双文化主义与自尊:基于文化领域的差异联想
文化适应是多维的,因为它既包括遗产,也包括主导文化取向,它可以发生在多个领域;因此,双文化主义是一种文化适应策略,涉及对传统文化和主流文化的强烈取向,也可能发生在行为和实践、价值观和信仰以及文化认同的领域。目前的研究是第一个在这三个文化领域比较双文化主义和自尊之间关系的研究。墨西哥裔美国大学生(N = 219;年龄= 18.82岁,SD = 1.09),主要为女性(72.15%),出生在美国(81.74%)。我们发现,根据不同的领域,双文化主义与个人自尊和集体自尊的联系是不同的,双文化行为的联系更强,而双文化价值观的联系更弱。我们的研究结果强调了在理论、研究和实践中认识双文化主义的多维性的重要性。
