Abstract: | Results on the Suinn-Lew Asian Self-Identity Acculturation Scale (SL-ASIA; Suinn, Rikard-Figueroa, Lew, & Vigil, 1987) confirm similarities between Singapore Asians and United States Asians on acculturation factors. The research also compared mean values on the SL-ASIA scale as a method of adding validity information regarding the scale. Singapore Asians did achieve a score indicative of Asian identity, whereas Asian Americans obtained a mean score indicative of higher Western acculturation. |
