OBJECTIVES Little is understood about how Multiracial individuals are socialized around race and ethnicity, and how these socialization messages are related to ethnic-racial identity development. METHOD This study utilizes a person-centered framework with a diverse sample of 286 Multiracial college students to examine the patterns of ethnic-racial socialization messages individuals received from their primary caregiver. RESULTS A latent profile analysis of caregivers' socialization messages produced a four-profile solution: Typical Messages (socialization messages with average frequency), Minority Messages (frequent cultural socialization and preparation for bias geared toward minority group membership), High Mistrust (frequent promotion of mistrust messages), and Low Frequency (all socialization messages at low frequency). Overall, profile differences were evident with respect to ethnic-racial identity endorsement, where participants in the Minority Messages profile endorsed the greatest levels of ethnic/racial exploration. In addition, individuals in the Minority Messages profile also endorsed higher levels of ethnic/racial identity resolution and affirmation than the High Mistrust and Low Frequency Messages profile. Individuals in the High Mistrust profile endorsed greater levels of identity conflict than the Minority Messages profile. CONCLUSIONS The current study provides evidence that the pattern of socialization messages Multiracial participants received growing up impact their ethnic-racial identity endorsement. Results highlight the need for continued quantitative and person-centered work when studying socialization and identity in Multiracials. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved).

种族-种族社会化模式及其身份的以人为本的分析与多种族大学生相关。

目标 关于多种族个体如何围绕种族和族裔进行社会化，以及这些社会化信息如何与族裔-种族身份发展相关，我们知之甚少。方法 本研究采用以人为本的框架，对 286 名多种族大学生的多样化样本进行调查，以检查个人从主要照顾者那里收到的种族-种族社会化信息的模式。结果 对照顾者社会化信息的潜在概况分析产生了四个概况的解决方案：典型信息（平均频率的社会化信息）、少数群体信息（频繁的文化社会化和针对少数群体成员的偏见的准备）、高度不信任（频繁促进不信任消息）和低频（低频的所有社交消息）。全面的，在种族-种族身份认可方面，概况差异很明显，少数群体信息概况中的参与者认可了最高水平的种族/种族探索。此外，与高度不信任和低频消息配置文件相比，少数群体信息配置文件中的个人还认可更高水平的种族/种族身份认同和肯定。高度不信任配置文件中的个人认可的身份冲突程度高于少数群体信息配置文件。结论 本研究提供的证据表明，多种族参与者在成长过程中收到的社会化信息模式会影响他们对种族-种族身份的认同。结果强调了在研究多种族中的社会化和身份认同时，需要继续进行定量和以人为本的工作。
