Asian adolescents in the West

by Paul A. Singh Ghuman

"Providing an up-to-date picture of the situation of South Asian and Chinese adolescents living in the West today, this book examines inter-ethnic relations, racial prejudice, gender equality, the development of ethnic identity, bilingualism, eating disorders, the practice of home religion, and scholastic achievement and adjustment. Building on the author's previous work, and on that of other researchers in this area, case studies and research from the UK, US, Canada, and Australia are included. The Aberystwyth Bi-culturalism Scale is included as an appendix." "Readership: teachers, educational and counselling psychologists, youth social workers, researchers. Undergraduates on teacher training courses, and psychology and sociology students taking modules on ethnic minorities will also find the book of interest."--Jacket.
