These adolescents might experience rejection by their ethnic peers and develop strategies such as hiding their grades or pretending that they don't care about white success (Ogbu, 2003). In a study of African American adolescents aged 11 to 16, Margaret Spencer found that the ones who identified with the majority culture exhibited lower achievement and less self-esteem than the ones with a clear African American identity (Spencer et al., 2006). Students with anti-white attitudes also performed poorly. It appears that minority students benefit from embracing their ethnicity and forming a positive ethnic identity without disparaging the majority culture. Minority adolescents with a strong positive ethnic identity are better adjusted than those with a weak or negative identity (Rivas-Drake et al., 2014). They are less likely to become delinquents (Bruce & Waelde, 2008), do better in school (Costigan et al., 2010), experience less depression (Mandara et al., 2009), and have more positive attitudes toward other ethnic groups (Phinney et al., 2007), and are protected from the negative effects of racial discrimination (Neblett et al., 2012; Tynes et al., 2012). Experiences of discrimination are linked with poorer outcomes (Galliher et al., 2011; Jackson et al., 2012). These effects are found across many ethnic groups (Latino, Chinese American, African American, Native Canadian/American) in Canada and the United States. Need Assignment Help?
