Asian Americans are the fastest growing minority group in the
United States. When Asian immigrants arrive in the United States,
they regularly encounter a vast number of difficulties integrating
themselves into their new culture. In Handbook of Mental Health and
Acculturation in Asian American Families, distinguished researchers
and clinicians discuss the process of acculturation for individuals
and their families, addressing the mental health needs of Asian
Americans and thoroughly examining the acculturative process, its
common stressors, and characteristics associated with resiliency.
This first-of-its-kind, multi-dimensional title synthesizes current
acculturation research, while presenting those concepts within a
clinical framework. In addition to providing an in-depth look at
both past and present research and offering directions for future
topics to explore, the book also offers a range of practical tools
such as research scales to measure levels of acculturation,
interview techniques, and clinical approaches for special
populations including children, the elderly, and their families.
Thought-provoking and informative, Handbook of Mental Health and
Acculturation in Asian American Families will enhance the
understanding of the clinical and sociocultural problems Asian
Americans face, providing clinicians with all the necessary
insights to better care for their patients.
