q2 i? For youth in immigrant families, ERI development was driven by family members' ethnic socialization efforts, whereas in U.S.-born-parent families, family socialization efforts were driven by youth's ERI. → Umaña-Taylor 2014

q2 · i? · review · r2
The review reports, citing recent work with Mexican-origin late adolescents and young adults (Umaña-Taylor et al., 2013), a bidirectional pattern: "ERI development was driven by family members’ ethnic socialization efforts" in immigrant families, with the reverse direction in U.S.-born families. No effect size is printed.
"For youth in immigrant families (i.e., parents born outside of the United States), ERI development was driven by family members’ ethnic socialization efforts, whereas in families where parents were U.S.-born, family socialization efforts were driven by youth’s ERI."

Related Claims¶
- The EI-to-FES path is significant only for U.S.-born families — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- For U.S.-born Mexican-origin youth with immigrant parents, family ethnic socialization predicts later ethnic identity but youth ethnic identity does not predict later family ethnic socialization (a family-driven process) — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- The FES-to-EI path is significant for Mexico-born and mixed-nativity families but not for U.S.-born families — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- For U.S.-born Mexican-origin youth with U.S.-born parents, youth ethnic identity predicts later family ethnic socialization but not vice versa (a youth-driven process) — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- Family nativity status moderates the direction of association between family ethnic socialization and youth ethnic identity — a broader claim this one bears on
- Family ethnic socialization shows high rank-order stability and significantly predicts youth ethnic identity across two years in the total sample — related
- No gender differences emerged in the associations between family ethnic socialization and ethnic identity — related
