520 1 $a"Immigrant Youth in Cultural Transition describes the work of an international team of psychologists with interests in acculturation, identity, and development. Using data from over 7,000 immigrant youth from diverse cultural backgrounds living in 13 countries of settlement, the chapters in this volume explore the ways in which immigrant adolescents carry out their lives at the intersection of two cultures (those of their heritage group and the national society), and describe how well these youth are adapting to their intercultural experience, in both their personal well-being and their school and community adjustment. This book elucidates the variation in both the psychological adaptation (good mental health and self esteem) and the sociocultural adaptation (positive school life and few problems in the community) among youth, with most adapting well." "This book is useful for professionals, researchers, graduate students, and public policy makers who have an interest in psychology, anthropology, sociology, demography, education, and psychiatry. People in all societies experiencing immigration will find the book informative. It is also a valuable resource for public, governmental, and university libraries. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.
