OBJECTIVES Research has shown that cultural identity and psychological well-being are associated. We suggest that negative stereotypes challenge the psychological well-being of people with a migrant background. This research focused on the dynamics of adolescents' ethnic/racial identity (ERI), national identity, stereotype vulnerability, and psychological well-being on the individual level. The study was conducted in Austria over the course of one school year, providing insights on developmental implications of cultural identity for adolescents with a migrant background in Europe. METHODS The sample consisted of 317 (T1) adolescents with a migrant background, recruited at Austrian high schools (age: M = 15.19, SD = 1.11; 233 female; ethnic background: mainly Turkey and Ex-Yugoslavian countries). Longitudinal data from a three-wave study were analyzed by means of a random-intercept cross-lagged panel model. RESULTS Within-person effects provided a better explanation than the between-person approach. Within-person processes suggest that higher levels of ERI commitment and higher national identity predict higher levels of psychological well-being at a later time point, whereas higher levels of ERI exploration and higher stereotype vulnerability predict lower levels of psychological well-being. At the between-person level, findings indicate a positive correlation between ERI exploration and stereotype vulnerability. CONCLUSION The cultural identity and psychological well-being of adolescents with a migrant background fluctuate over time, influenced by the social context. Stereotype vulnerability contributes to lower levels of psychological well-being among adolescents with a migrant background in Austria. Our findings highlight the necessity to partition the variance of constructs to avoid confounding of between-person and within-person effects.

奥地利移民背景青少年文化认同和心理健康的个体发展：纵向研究。

目标 研究表明，文化认同和心理健康是相关的。我们建议负面的刻板印象挑战具有移民背景的人的心理健康。这项研究的重点是青少年的民族/种族认同 (ERI)、民族认同、刻板印象脆弱性和个人层面的心理健康的动态。该研究在一学年期间在奥地利进行，提供了关于文化认同对欧洲移民背景青少年发展影响的见解。方法 样本包括 317 名 (T1) 具有移民背景的青少年，在奥地利高中招募（年龄：M = 15.19，SD = 1.11；233 名女性；种族背景：主要是土耳其和前南斯拉夫国家）。来自三波研究的纵向数据通过随机截距交叉滞后面板模型进行分析。结果 与人际方法相比，人内效应提供了更好的解释。人内过程表明，较高水平的 ERI 承诺和较高的民族认同度预示着在以后的时间点心理健康水平较高，而较高水平的 ERI 探索和较高的刻板印象脆弱性预示着较低的心理健康水平。在人际层面，调查结果表明 ERI 探索与刻板印象脆弱性之间存在正相关。结论 有移民背景的青少年的文化认同和心理健康会随着时间的推移而波动，受社会环境的影响。刻板印象脆弱性导致奥地利有移民背景的青少年心理健康水平较低。我们的研究结果强调了划分结构差异的必要性，以避免混淆人与人之间的影响。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2021 APA，保留所有权利）。
