National and Ethnic Identity in the Face of Discrimination: Ethnic Minority and Majority Perspectives 面对歧视时的国家和族裔认同:少数族裔和多数族裔的观点 Abstract: Does the United States afford people of different backgrounds a sense of equal identification with the nation? Past research has documented ethnic/racial group differences on levels of national identity but there has been little research examining what psychologically moderates these disparities. The present research investigates how perceived group discrimination is associated with national and ethnic identification among ethnic majority and minority groups. Study 1 examines whether perceived group discrimination moderates subgroup differences on national and ethnic identification. Study 2 makes salient group discrimination-via an item order manipulation-and examines the effects on national and ethnic identification. In general, the 2 studies demonstrate that for most ethnic minorities higher perceptions of group discrimination are related to lower levels of national identity and higher ethnic identity. Conversely, among majority group members, higher levels of perceived discrimination predict higher levels of national identity with little influence on ethnic identification. 摘要:美国能承受不同背景的人拥有平等的对国家的认同感吗?过去的研究已经证明对国家认同的水平存在民族/种族的差异,但很少有研究什么因素在心理上调节这些差异。本研究探讨感知到的族裔群体歧视如何在多数族裔和少数族裔中与对国家和族裔的认同关联的。研究1探讨是否感知到的群体歧视减少了对国家认同和族裔认同的组间差异。研究2通过项目顺序操作而显示了突出的群体歧视,并检查其对国家和族裔认同的影响。总体而言,这两项研究表明,对大多数的少数族裔人群,较高的群体歧视的感知与较低的国家认同和更高的民族认同水平关联。相反,对多数族裔人群,更高水平的感知的歧视预测较高水平的国家认同,但对族裔认同的影响不大。 作者:Molina, Ludwin E.; Phillips, Nia L.; Sidanius, Jim 来源:CULTURAL DIVERSITY & ETHNIC MINORITY PSYCHOLOGY 卷: 21 期: 2 页: 225-236 出版年: APR 2015 (责任编辑:admin) |
