DESCRIPTION:Jean Phinney\, Ph.D. \nProfessor of Psychology\, California State University Los Angeles \nThursday\, October 27th 2005\n12:15 – 1:30pm\n3534 Franz Hall\nUniversity of California\, Los Angeles\nLos Angeles\, CA 90095-1563 \n  \n PLEASE CLICK HERE TO WATCH DR. PHINNEY’S PRESENTATION \n Click here to read Dr. Phinney’s Paper \nPROGRAM \n12:15-1:30 pm   Lunch/Talk/Q & A \n  \nABOUT THE TALK \nScholars interested in ethnic identity acknowledge that the context is an important influence on its development and expression. However\, most of the psychological research on ethnic identity has been carried out in the United States and has not examined context specifically. In this presentation\, Dr. Phinney will discuss results from an international study of over 5000 immigrant youth who were surveyed in 13 immigrant-receiving countries. The study explored the relationship of ethnic identity to national identity and to acculturation\, the role of ethnic identity in psychological adaptation\, variation in individual profiles of identity\, and similarities and differences across countries and ethnic groups. The results suggest four different profiles of cultural identity\, including bicultural\, ethnic\, national\, and diffuse. These profiles vary in their relationship to adaptation and in their distribution across contexts. Ethnic identity among immigrant youth can best be understood in terms of complex interactions among the attitudes and characteristics of immigrants and the contexts in which they live. \n  \nABOUT DR. JEAN PHINNEY \nIs a Professor of Psychology at  California State  University\,  Los Angeles. She received her B.A. from  Wellesley College and her Ph.D. from UCLA. For the past twenty years she has been studying ethnic identity\, acculturation\, and psychological well-being among adolescents and emerging adults from diverse ethnic and immigrant groups in southern  California. She is the author of the widely used Multigroup Ethnic Identity Measure. She has published extensively on ethnic identity\, as well as on bicultural and biracial identity. She is part of an international team that recently completed a study (and forthcoming book) on adaptation of immigrant adolescents in thirteen countries. She is currently conducting research on academic success of ethnic minority first-generation college students. \nABOUT UCLA CRETSCMHD\nA diverse group of faculty\, health professionals\, community-based agencies\, and minority media have joined together though CRETSCMHD to effectively reduce or eliminate disparities in health among racial and ethnic minorities.
