A total of 557 Asian-American students (263 Chinese Americans, 185 Japanese Americans, and 109 Korean Americans) completed a survey consisting of a demographic questionnaire, a modified version of the Suinn-Lew Asian Self-Identity Acculturation Scale, and the Attitudes Toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale (ATSPHS). A 3 x 2 x 2 multivariate analysis with main effects of ethnicity, gender, and level of acculturation and the four subscales of the ATSPHS as the dependent variables resulted in a significant F value for acculturation effect and nonsignificant F values for all other main and interaction effects. Regardless of ethnicity and gender, the most acculturated students were: (a) most likely to recognize personal need for professional psychological help, (b) most tolerant of the stigma associated with psychological help, and (c) most open to discussing their problems with a psychologist. Considerable evidence exists that Asian Americans underutilize mental health services (President's Commission, 1978; Sue & McKinney, 1975), despite the fact that they are subjected to all the stresses experienced by any ethnic minority group (e.g., cultural conflict, racism, and generational conflict) in addition to those experienced by nonminorities. Furthermore, like other ethnic minority groups, Asian Americans who do make use of mental health services have a significantly higher drop-out rate than do White clients (Sue, 1977; Yamamoto, James, & Palley, 1968). A number of explanations, some having to do with the conflict between Asian-American values and the psychotherapy process and some having to do with the inadequacies of traditional mental health services, have been offered for this pattern of underutilization and early termination. With respect to the conflict between cultural values and psychotherapy process, Root (1985) suggested that talking to a mental health worker about psychological problems may be viewed by Asian Americans as bringing disgrace on the family. Instead, Asian Americans may try to resolve their problems on their own, believing that mental health can be maintained by avoiding bad thoughts and exercising will power (Root, 1985). Asian Americans also may internalize stress and express symptoms through somatization and may therefore seek help from medical professionals (Sue & Morishima, 1982; Tseng, 1975). They simply may not view psychological services as a credible source of help.
