- 요약Umana-Taylor et al. (2014) defined ethnic-racial identity (ERI) as "a multidimensional, psychological construct that encompasses individuals' beliefs and attitudes regarding their ethnic/racial group memberships and the developmental processes through which these beliefs and attitudes evolve over time" (p. 23). Although researchers have examined related psychological constructs, such as ethnic identity (Mossakowski, 2003) and colonial mentality (David & Okazaki, 2006a) with Filipino American samples, researchers have yet to investigate the ERI construct with this group. This dissertation consists of three studies that expands the ERI literature by examining the cultural identity attitudes of Filipino American adults.The first study was a validation study of Cross Ethnic-Racial Identity Scale - Adult (CERIS-A; Worrell & Vandiver, 2016) scores with Filipino American adults. The CERIS-A was previously only examined for African Americans, Asian Americans, European Americans, and Latinx Americans (Worrell et al., 2019) and CERIS-A scores were found to be internally consistent, structurally valid, and the 7-factor model fit the data well. Filipino Americans are one of the only Asian American ethnic subgroups to have a history of U.S. colonialism. Investigating cultural identity constructs among Filipino Americans may provide valuable insights into the effects of U.S. colonization on the mental health and psychosocial outcomes of this community. In this study, the psychometric properties of the CERIS-A were examined with a Filipino American adult sample. In addition, confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to see if the 7-factor model fit the data well. Intercorrelations between CERIS-A subscale scores and psychosocial outcomes were also examined. Internal consistency estimates for CERIS-A scores across the seven subscales were moderate to strong (.65 ≤ α ≤ .91; .67 ≤ ω ≤ .91), with only Ethnocentricity scores having reliability estimates .73. Confirmatory factor analysis provided support for the CERIS-A's 7-factor model and subscale scores had meaningful associations with ethnic identity, collective self-esteem, and other-group orientation scores. Findings showed that the CERIS-A was an effective tool for assessing the ERI attitudes of Filipino American adults.In the second study, person-centered methods were used to examine the ERI attitudinal profiles of Filipino American adults in relation to measures of mental health, well-being, and colonial mentality. Key theories in Filipino American psychology, like the Pilipino American Identity Development model (PAID; Nadal, 2004) and the Colonial Mentality construct (David & Okazaki, 2006a) have not been examined using an ERI theoretical framework. Person-centered methods are an increasingly used approach for examining the ethnic/racial identity (ERI) attitudes of different ethnic/racial groups. Several arguments in the literature underscore the need to examine racial identity through multivariate approaches to fully encompass the complexity of the individual's racial identity attitudes (Vandiver et al., 2002; Worrell et al., 2006; Worrell et al., 2023). Examining the ERI attitudinal profiles of Filipino American adults using CERIS-A scores may provide evidence of ERI attitudinal profiles that mirror the stages described in the PAID model (Nadal, 2004). Results indicated that a 5-profile solution showed the best fit (Low Race Salience, Multiculturalist Racial, Conflicted, Multiculturalist Inclusive, and Assimilated/Miseducated). There were statistically significant and meaningful differences across ERI profiles on the measures of mental health, well-being, and colonial mentality. One of the profiles, the Multiculturalist Racial profile, has not yet been found in previous racial identity research. These findings support the overall examination of ERI attitudinal profiles among Filipino American adults. In the third study, I used person-centered methods to examine the concept of colonial mentality (CM; David & Okazaki, 2006b), the main psychological construct in Filipino American psychology. Researchers have used variable-centered methods to examine the relationships between CM and psychological well-being. Scholars have also described CM as being pervasive among Filipino Americans without any robust empirical evidence of its prevalence. Overall, there is a need to critically examine the CM construct, its prevalence, and the most appropriate ways to study it within Filipino American psychology. In this paper, I used latent profile analysis to examine the Colonial Mentality Scale (CMS; David & Okazaki, 2006b) scores of Filipino American adults. I also compared CM profiles based on their differences in scores on psychosocial, cultural identity, and well-being variables. Results indicated that a 3-profile solution showed the best fit (Low CM, Medium CM, and High CM). There were meaningful differences in scores among CM profiles on measures of ethnic/racial identity attitudes and psychosocial outcomes, but not on measures of depression symptoms and personal self-esteem. Findings from this dissertation expand on previous theories of Filipino American cultural identity by using the ERI construct and person-centered methods.
