The article argues that strengthening the connection with their intersecting identities is essential to the well-being of diverse AAPIs, especially given three interconnected and added strains: anti-Asian rhetoric and ensuing violence, invisible and intensified structural inequalities, and exacerbated mental health disparity. To facilitate AAPIs ongoing development and connection with their intersecting identities, three complementary theoretical approaches are introduced as the foundation of practice guidelines offered. The approaches include a culturally affirming developmental approach that fosters growth and resilience consistent with AAPIs identities;a multicultural feminist approach that promotes, empowers, and advocates for AAPIs by acknowledging structural power differentials within multiple interlocking systems of oppression;and a social justice-oriented psychoanalytic approach that recognizes structural impacts and offers attentive listening to the voices of AAPIs whose experiences are otherwise unheard. To support AAPIs through and beyond the pandemic, psychological practitioners must familiarize themselves with identity development theories relevant to AAPIs, participate in social advocacy by acknowledging and affirming differences within and external to AAPI communities, and expand on one's ability to listen for the diverse experiences that are unspoken, unheard, or uncomfortable to digest embedded in the oppressive structure.

Anderson","doi":"10.1037/aap0000289","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1037/aap0000289","url":null,"abstract":"The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has brought health and social disparities to the fore, and intensified bias and racism in the U.S. and globally. In the context of discriminatory rhetoric and anti-Asian sentiments voiced by prominent political figures, Asian Americans have been disproportionately targeted with injustice, scapegoating, and overt racism. Amid heightened sociocultural stress and national divisiveness, the present study explored whether \"silver linings\" might be found in the form of increased ethnic-racial identity exploration, ethnic-racial socialization, and civic engagement. Survey data from 200 Asian American parents of adolescents (58% mothers;63% foreign born, 37% U.S. born) suggest that awareness of discrimination against Asian Americans post-COVID-19 was associated with greater identity exploration and fewer socialization messages that minimize the importance of race. Awareness of discrimination against other minoritized groups (i.e., Native and Black Americans, Latinxs) was associated with greater post-COVID-19 activism. Additional socialization messages (i.e., promotion of equality, cultural pluralism) were associated with lifetime discrimination experiences and parent gender. Although negative consequences of the pandemic are indisputable, our results offer a small glimmer of hope in terms of building resistance and momentum. What is the public significance of this article? In the face of ethnic-racial bias and racism post-coronavirus disease (COVID-19), Asian American parents of adolescents explore their ethnic-racial identities, communicate positive ethnic-racial socialization messages to their children, and engage in community activism. Although negative consequences of the pandemic are indisputable, there do appear to be \"silver linings\" that can build resistance and civic engagement.","PeriodicalId":46922,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Journal of Psychology","volume":"91 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84239994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
