Abstract

As we enter the era of globalization, it is becoming crucial to understand the unique experience that multicultural adolescents have to go through. As such, this study examined the moderating effect of Bicultural Acceptance Attitude between Acculturative Stress and Life Satisfaction. A nationwide sample of 1,857 youth(M_age = 11.05, SD = .03; 52.3% male) is analyzed, using the 2nd wave(2021) data of the 2nd term Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study(MAPS) provided by the National Youth Policy Institute of South Korea(NYPI). The hypothesis was tested through SPSS PROCESS macro and the Johnson-Neyman method. Findings have revealed that Acculturative Stress is negatively associated with Life Satisfaction, and the Bicultural Acceptance Attitude worked as a protective factor in its relationship. The bicultural acceptance attitude had a significant effect on the relationship between acculturative stress and life satisfaction only when its value was -6.77 or above (upper 4.15%, lower 95.85%). These findings contribute to alleviating the impact of Acculturative Stress as a risk factor on Life Satisfaction among multicultural adolescents.

双文化接受态度是防止文化适应压力对韩国多元文化青少年生活满意度产生影响的保护因素

随着全球化时代的到来，了解多元文化青少年的独特经历变得至关重要。因此，本研究探讨了双文化接受态度在文化适应压力和生活满意度之间的调节作用。本研究使用韩国国家青年政策研究所（NYPI）提供的第二期多元文化青少年小组研究（MAPS）的第二波（2021 年）数据，对全国范围内的 1,857 名青少年样本（年龄 = 11.05，SD = 0.03；52.3% 为男性）进行了分析。假设通过 SPSS PROCESS 宏和约翰逊-奈曼法进行了检验。研究结果表明，文化适应压力与生活满意度呈负相关，而双文化接受态度在两者关系中起保护作用。只有当双文化接受态度的值为 -6.77 或以上时，双文化接受态度才会对文化适应压力与生活满意度之间的关系产生显著影响（上限为 4.15%，下限为 95.85%）。这些发现有助于减轻文化适应压力作为风险因素对多元文化青少年生活满意度的影响。
