Asian-American Acculturation, Severity of Concerns, and Willingness to See a Counselor.

Gim, Ruth H.; And Others

Journal of Counseling Psychology, v37 n3 p281-85 Jul 1990

Surveyed Asian American college students, assessing severity of 24 problems. Factor analysis reduced 24 problems to 8 areas of concern. Found severity ratings for eight areas related to acculturation and ethnicity. Women and low-medium acculturated students expressed greater willingness to see counselor than did men and high-acculturated students. (Author/NB)
