Multiple Selves, Multiple Worlds: Three Useful Strategies for Research with Ethnic Minority Youth on Identity, Relationships, and Opportunity Structures
1998
A coherent picture of development among ethnic minority youth is missing
in theories of normal adolescence in which maturity is portrayed in terms of
increasing autonomy from parents and where identity development is described
as a process of exploration among relatively unrestricted educational and career
opportunities (Adams, Gullotta, & Montemayor, 1992). Such accounts omit the
experiences of minority youth, who often have lifelong responsibilities to family
members and who face racial, economic, and political barriers to opportunities
in school and work (Grotevant & Cooper, 1988, 1998).
