This study investigates how adolescents growing up in a rapidly globalizing Thai city psychologically manage local and global values when considering their envisioned futures. Qualitative analysis of interviews conducted with 20 (16–18 years old) adolescents reveals four distinct patterns of local–global value negotiation. Findings indicate that adolescents at times dynamically reshape local values in order to encompass global values; at other times, adolescents conceive of themselves as sitting at the crossroads of value systems that cannot be readily integrated. By revealing how global youth negotiate local and global values, this study pushes forward the scientific understanding of biculturalism in contexts of rapid cultural change.

在全球化世界中协商地方和全球价值：泰国青少年的设想未来。

本研究调查了在快速全球化的泰国城市中成长的青少年在考虑他们所设想的未来时如何在心理上管理当地和全球价值观。对 20 名（16-18 岁）青少年进行的访谈的定性分析揭示了四种不同的本地-全球价值协商模式。调查结果表明，青少年有时会动态地重塑当地价值观以包含全球价值观；在其他时候，青少年认为自己处于无法轻易整合的价值体系的十字路口。通过揭示全球青年如何协商地方和全球价值观，这项研究推动了在快速文化变革背景下对双文化主义的科学理解。
