ABSTRACT

This qualitative case study illustrates the application of the participatory culture-specific consultation model in building university–community partnership between a university research team and four Asian American community organizations. It also describes a collaborative data collection process through the “Hear Me Out” essay contest and workshop to identify needs and challenges experienced by Asian immigrant families. Essays were collected from 27 Asian American adolescents (77.8% female) and 11 immigrant parents (63.3% female). This culture-specific formative research resulted in themes relating to the challenges faced by Asian families, family strengths, and solutions. Based on the themes, we developed the culture-specific hypothesis: it is important for consultants and school staff to recognize Asian immigrant families’ strength, but also develop empathy for and openness about their challenges, improve parent-youth communication and positive parenting, and promote parents’ awareness of mental health to promote positive youth development. Results will inform intervention development with Asian immigrant families.

与亚裔美国人社区进行参与式文化特定的协商:确定亚裔美国人移民家庭面临的挑战和解决方案

摘要

该定性案例研究说明了参与性文化特定咨询模型在大学研究团队与四个亚裔社区组织之间建立大学-社区伙伴关系中的应用。它还通过“听我讲”作文比赛和研讨会描述了协作数据收集过程,以识别亚洲移民家庭遇到的需求和挑战。论文收集自27名亚裔美国青少年(女性占77.8%)和11名移民父母(女性占63.3%)。这项针对特定文化的形成性研究得出的主题涉及亚洲家庭所面临的挑战,家庭优势和解决方案。根据主题,我们提出了针对特定文化的假设:对于顾问和学校工作人员来说,认识亚洲移民家庭的实力很重要,同时也要对他们的挑战表示同情和开放,改善父母与青少年之间的沟通和积极的育儿方式,并提高父母的心理健康意识,以促进积极的青年发展。结果将为亚洲移民家庭的干预发展提供信息。
