Acculturation and Perceived Intergenerational Differences among Hmong Youth

University of Colorado

John Forward

University of Colorado

This study examined the relationship between level of acculturation and perceived intergenerational differences for 29 high school students from Hmong refugee families. Students perceived themselves to be more acculturated than their parents. Higher acculturation was associated with higher perceived intergenerational differences. This association depended on the number of years students had spent in U.S. schools. Greater acculturation of traditional behavior, family relationships, and decision making was also associated with increasing perceived intergenerational differences.
