Cultural Diversity & Ethnic Minority Psychology, v7 n3 p284-97 Aug 2001
Domains of cultural orientation such as language, social affiliation, and cultural pride, were examined in Chinese American college students (N=353) to see how they related to self-esteem. Cultural orientation significantly predicted self-esteem differences. Cultural predictors of self-esteem varied by gender; self-esteem was mainly related to pride in females and English language proficiency in males. (JDM)
