mexican american adolescents Cultural orientation externalizing behavior and academic engagement the role of traditional Cultural Values
American Journal of Community Psychology, 2008Co-Authors: Nancy A Gonzales, Miguelina German, Preethy George, Fairlee C Fabrett, Roger E Millsap, Larry E DumkaAbstract:This study of 598 7th grade students of Mexican origin examined the role of traditional Cultural Values as a mediator of the effects of immigrant status, Mexican Cultural orientation and Anglo Cultural orientation on adolescent externalizing behavior and academic engagement. Immigrant status of adolescents and their maternal caregivers uniquely predicted increased Mexican Cultural orientation and decreased Anglo Cultural orientation, and both Mexican and Anglo Cultural orientation related positively to adolescents’ endorsement of traditional Cultural Values. Endorsement of traditional Cultural Values related, in turn, to decreased externalizing behaviors and increased academic engagement and these findings were replicated across adolescent and teacher report of these two outcomes. Tests of mediation provided further evidence to support these pathways. Findings support the central importance of traditional Cultural Values as a protective resource that explains why immigrant youth exhibit fewer externalizing problems and increased academic engagement when compared to their second and third generation peers.

the mexican american Cultural Values scale for adolescents and adults
Journal of Early Adolescence, 2010Co-Authors: George P Knight, Nancy A Gonzales, Miguelina German, Delia S Saenz, Darya D Bonds, Julianna Deardorff, Mark W Roosav, Kimberly A UpdegraffAbstract:This research evaluates the properties of a measure of Culturally linked Values of Mexican Americans in early adolescence and adulthood. The items measure were derived from qualitative data provided by focus groups in which Mexican Americans' (adolescents, mothers and fathers) perceptions of key Values were discussed. The focus groups and a preliminary item refinement resulted in the fifty-item Mexican American Cultural Values Scales (identical for adolescents and adults) that includes nine value subscales. Analyses of data from two large previously published studies sampling Mexican American adolescents, mothers, and fathers provided evidence of the expected two correlated higher order factor structures, reliability, and construct validity of the subscales of the Mexican American Cultural Values Scales as indicators of Values that are frequently associated with Mexican/Mexican American culture. The utility of this measure for use in longitudinal research, and in resolving some important theoretical questions regarding dual Cultural adaptation, are discussed.

trust transparency and openness how inclusion of Cultural Values shapes nordic national public policy strategies for artificial intelligence ai
Technology in Society, 2020Co-Authors: Stephen Cory RobinsonAbstract:Abstract Using textual analysis methodology with Hofstede's Cultural dimensions as basis for cross-national comparison, the manuscript explores the influence of Cultural Values of trust, transparency, and openness in Nordic national artificial intelligence (AI) policy documents. Where many AI processes are technologies hidden from view of the citizen, how can public institutions support and ensure these high levels of trust, transparency, and openness in Nordic culture and extend these concepts of “digital trust” to AI? One solution is by authoring national policy that upholds Cultural Values and personal rights, ultimately reinforcing these Values in their societies. The paper highlights differences in how Nordic nations position themselves using Cultural Values as organizing principles, with the author showing these Values (i.e., trust through clear information and information security, transparency through AI literacy education and clear algorithmic decision making, and openness by creating data lakes and data trusts) support the development of AI technology in society. The analysis shows that three Cultural Values are upheld and influence Nordic national AI strategies, while themes of privacy, ethics, and autonomy are present, and democracy, a societal building block in the Nordics, is especially prominent in the policies. For policy development, policy leaders must understand that without citizen involvement in AI implementation or lacking citizen AI education, we risk alienating those for who these services are meant to utilize and improve access for.
