Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to test the roles of ethnic and racial identity (ERI) processes and autonomy-supportive parenting on college students' psychological adjustment.

Method: American college students of color (N = 505) completed questionnaires assessing ERI exploration and commitment, autonomy-supportive parenting, and psychological adjustment (self-esteem, depressive symptoms). Key variables were operationalized as latent constructs, and main and interaction effects were tested using the latent moderated structural equation modeling approach.

Results: Higher levels of ERI commitment (but not exploration) and parental autonomy support each uniquely predicted higher levels of self-esteem and lower levels of depressive symptoms. Parental autonomy support moderated associations between ERI processes and psychological adjustment, and the nature of moderation did not differ across Black and Latino/a/x students.

Conclusions: Supporting the psychological adjustment of college students of color necessitates acknowledging the importance of both parental and institutional efforts to encourage students' autonomy strivings and ERI processes. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).

自主支持型养育是民族和种族身份认同过程与大学期间心理适应之间关系的调节因素。

研究目的本研究的目的是测试民族和种族认同（ERI）过程以及自主支持型养育对大学生心理适应的作用：方法：美国有色人种大学生（505 人）填写问卷，评估 ERI 探索和承诺、自主支持型养育和心理适应（自尊、抑郁症状）。关键变量被操作化为潜在结构，并使用潜在调节结构方程建模方法对主要效应和交互效应进行了检验：较高水平的 ERI 承诺（但不包括探索）和父母的自主支持各自独特地预测了较高水平的自尊和较低水平的抑郁症状。父母的自主支持调节了ERI过程与心理适应之间的关联，而调节的性质在黑人学生和拉丁裔/a/x学生之间没有差异：要支持有色人种大学生的心理适应，就必须认识到父母和学校在鼓励学生的自主追求和ERI过程方面所做努力的重要性。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)。
