According to the 2010 U.S. Census, the Asian American population increased by 46% between 2000 and 2010 and it is one of the most rapidly growing racial groups in the United States. The existing evidence suggests that immigrant families may experience greater conflicts between parents and their children, especially when Asian parents strongly endorsed traditional values and beliefs. In the field of clinical psychology, many mental health professionals and immigrants are unaware how much acculturation differences impact family functioning and mental illness.

520 $a According to the 2010 U.S. Census, the Asian American population increased by 46% between 2000 and 2010 and it is one of the most rapidly growing racial groups in the United States. The existing evidence suggests that immigrant families may experience greater conflicts between parents and their children, especially when Asian parents strongly endorsed traditional values and beliefs. In the field of clinical psychology, many mental health professionals and immigrants are unaware how much acculturation differences impact family functioning and mental illness.
520 $a Therefore, the purpose of this dissertation was to investigate the factors, which may mitigate intergenerational conflicts with parents among Asian American college students. Participants included 155 Asian Americans (94 female and 61 male) college students aged between18 and 29 (mean = 19.45, SD = 1.76). Data was collected from the Acculturation in Families study conducted at the Multicultural Research Lab at Cal State Los Angeles. Participants were given the surveys to complete which included, the Asian American Values Scale Multidimensional (AVS-M) that measures adherence to cultural values common to many Asian American ethnic groups, a modified version of the Stephenson Multidimensional Acculturation Scale (SMAS) in order to measure cultural orientation, the Acculturation Gap Conflicts Inventory, the machismo subscale from the Multiphasic Assessment of Cultural Constructs-Short Form, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Inventory (RSE), and the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were conducted in order to examine the predictors of intergenerational conflicts and psychological adjustment.
520 $a This study investigated intergenerational conflicts among Asian American young adults and parents and the role of bicultural adaptation in reducing such conflicts. The present study found some support that higher levels of acculturation to the dominant culture and lower levels of enculturation would be related to increased intergenerational conflicts in the area of autonomy and cultural preferences among Asian American families. Also, it should be noted that in this dissertation, greater acculturation was not significantly related to more intergenerational conflicts. These findings indicate that the adoption of American culture is not problematic for Asian young adults, instead it is only the loss of traditional culture that is associated with problems. Moreover, the study found some support that those who endorsed conformity to norms and traditional gender role attitudes reported significantly fewer autonomy values conflicts with their parents. Finally, the correlational analysis indicated that the results support that increased intergenerational conflicts in the area of autonomy values conflicts with parents were associated with increased depression, decrease self-esteem, and decreased college commitment and confidence. The results are in line with previous research reporting that immigrants who maintain one's heritage cultural values, knowledge and identity, while also incorporating values and customs of the dominant culture reflects the bicultural competence essential to adaptation and mental well-being.
