q3 i? Among U.S.-born youth with immigrant parents, perceptions of family ethnic socialization in late adolescence predicted significantly greater ethnic identity exploration and resolution in emerging adulthood, while youth ethnic identity did not significantly predict future perceptions of family ethnic socialization. → Umaña-Taylor Adriana J. 2013

q3 · i? · associational · r2
Longitudinal cross-lagged panel analysis of 178 Mexican-origin youth over two years (Phase 3 to Phase 4). Multiple-group models by family nativity status showed the FES-to-EI path was significant for Mexico-born and mixed-nativity families but not U.S.-born families, indicating a family-driven process for children of immigrants.
"for U.S.-born youth with immigrant parents, the process appeared to be family-driven: Youths' perceptions of family ethnic socialization in late adolescence were associated with significantly greater ethnic identity exploration and resolution in emerging adulthood"
