Harold Kooreman

Brief Symptom Inventory scores of Asian, Asian-American, and European-American university students were examined. It was hypothesized that Asian-Americans with low-medium levels of acculturation would show levels of distress similar to those found with Cheng, Leong, and Geist's sample of international Asian college students, whereas Asian-American research participants with higher levels of acculturation would report levels of distress more similar to European-American college students. The results indicated support for the influence of level of acculturation on the reporting of distress on the BSI and further indicated the need for future research on Asian-Americans to examine gender effects in addition to acculturation.

... respectively). Most studies testing racial minority participants have focused on college students, with alphas of .92 to .96 for composite Brief Symptom Inventory scores among Black students (e.g., Kim et al., 2019) and alphas ranging from .79 to .88 for select subscales among Asian American students (e.g., Iwamasa & Kooreman, 1995). Alphas for our sample of Black, Asian American, and White adolescents were as follows: α = .89, ...

... Moreover, ethnic minority students often report having higher levels of stress and lower levels of mental well-being than white students, suggesting a potential correlation between stress and well-being (57,58). The finding that ethnic minority students experience lower levels of mental well-being than white students is often reported in the literature, and there may be reasons for this finding other than stress (59)(60)(61). For instance, as is the case with stereotype threats faced by women, ethnic minority students may feel significant pressure to reject group stereotypes (62). ...
