Most studies on psychosocial stress among Hispanics have focused on risk factors. To better understand psychosocial stress among this population, this study aimed to examine components of bicultural identity integration and bicultural self‐efficacy, that may be associated with lower psychosocial stress among Hispanic emerging adults (ages 18–25). This aim was tested on a cross‐sectional sample of Hispanic emerging adults (M_age = 21.30, SD = 2.09) that included 200 participants (Arizona n = 99, Florida n = 101). The sample included men (n = 98) and women (n = 102). Most participants were US‐born (70%), college students (69.5%), and of Mexican heritage (44%). Standardized coefficients from a hierarchical multiple regression model indicate that higher levels of the bicultural harmony component of bicultural identity integration (β = −0.26, p < 0.001) and the social groundedness component of bicultural self‐efficacy (β = −0.23, p < 0.01) were associated with lower levels of psychosocial stress. To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine components of bicultural identity integration and bicultural self‐efficacy and their respective associations with psychosocial stress among any racial/ethnic group. Thus, more studies are needed to replicate our findings to determine if bicultural identity integration and bicultural self‐efficacy should be considered in psychosocial stress interventions for Hispanics.

西班牙裔新兴成年人的社会心理压力、双文化身份整合和双文化自我效能感

大多数关于西班牙裔心理社会压力的研究都集中在风险因素上。为了更好地了解这一人群的社会心理压力，本研究旨在检验双文化身份整合和双文化自我效能的组成部分，这可能与西班牙裔新兴成年人（18-25 岁）较低的社会心理压力有关。这一目标在西班牙裔新兴成年人（ M_年龄= 21.30，SD = 2.09）的横断面样本上进行了测试，其中包括 200 名参与者（亚利桑那州n = 99，佛罗里达州n = 101）。样本包括男性 ( n = 98) 和女性 ( n= 102）。大多数参与者是美国出生 (70%)、大学生 (69.5%) 和墨西哥血统 (44%)。来自分层多元回归模型的标准化系数表明，双文化身份整合的双文化和谐成分 ( β = −0.26, p < 0.001) 和双文化自我效能的社会基础成分 ( β = −0.23, p< 0.01) 与较低水平的社会心理压力相关。据我们所知，这是第一项研究双文化身份整合和双文化自我效能的组成部分，以及它们各自与任何种族/族裔群体的社会心理压力的关联。因此，需要更多的研究来复制我们的发现，以确定是否应在针对西班牙裔的社会心理压力干预中考虑双文化身份整合和双文化自我效能感。
