“…The finding that The N-I identity and the related value package was better at predicting negative than positive reactions was consistent with research on the association between nationalism and outgroup rejection (Leyens et al, 2003;Mummendey et al, 2001). Furthermore, supporting the view that identities may have social-structural antecedents (Deaux & Martin, 2003), the authoritarian-nationalistic package was related to a low level of urbanization. In other words, it was associated with low intragroup status within a low status group (low socioeconomic position within Turkey).…”

The present study aimed to investigate Turkish university youth's constructions concerning the European Union (EU) and their reactions to the EU's December 2002 Copenhagen summit decision to delay discussion of Turkey's entry to the EU. Specifically it aimed to show that socio-political identities among Turkish youth were related to historical developments in Turkey's past and that these identities had associations with values of ethnocentricism, patriotism, and secularism. Furthermore it was predicted that constructions of the EU reactions to the decision would be related. Students (400) from five universities at the three largest cities of Turkey participated in the study. Three identities, Nationalist-Islam, Kemalist, and Western; three constructions of the EU, Europe as Different, Impermeable Boundaries, and Different but Advantageous, and two perceived causes for the decision, Differences-Conflict and Justification emerged from factor analyses. Second order factor analysis revealed that Nationalist-Islam identity and authoritarian, ethnocentric and antisecular values formed a cluster whereas Kemalist and Western identities were grouped with low levels of patriotism. Positive and negative constructions of the EU and reactions to the Copenhagen decision were also grouped under two separate factors. Further analyses revealed that an index of urbanization composed of parental education and rural-urban origin predicted the Authoritarian-Nationalistic cluster and that this value-identity cluster predicted positive and negative views of the EU.

Objective: This study tested whether an immigrant mother's perception of ethnic and language-based discrimination affects the health of her child (indexed by the child's frequency of sick visits to the doctor, adjusting for well-visits), as a function of her ethnic-group attachment and length of U.S. residency. Method: A community-based sample of 98 immigrant Dominican and Mexican mothers of normally developing 14-month-old children were interviewed. Mothers reported their perceived ethnic and language-based discrimination, degree of ethnic-group attachment, length of time in the United States, and frequency of their child's doctor visits for both illness and routine (healthy) exams. Results: Among more recent immigrants, greater perceived ethnic and language-based discrimination were associated with more frequent sick-child visits, but only among those reporting low ethnic-group attachment. The associations between both forms of perceived discrimination and sick-child visits were not observed among mothers reporting high ethnic-group attachment. Among more established immigrants, perceived language-based discrimination was associated with more frequent sick-child visits regardless of ethnic-group attachment. Conclusion: These results suggest that a Latina mother's experience with ethnic and language-based discrimination is associated with her child's health, as indicated by doctor visits for illness, but that strong ethnic-group attachment may mitigate this association among recent immigrants.

“…Estas representaciones son interiorizadas por los sujetos que forman parte de dicha cultura, estructurando y configurando formas de interpretar, actuar y pensar sobre la realidad. Autores como Steele, Spencer y Aronson (2002) han demostrado empíricamente cómo los estereotipos internalizados afectan al autoconcepto del sujeto, a los procesos cognitivos, a las aptitudes intelectuales y al desempeño de tareas, lo cual nos lleva a considerar la necesidad de utilizar modelos integradores en la construcción de la identidad de género, que superen las tendencias reduccionistas (Deaux & Martin, 2003). El conocimiento o desconocimiento o falso conocimiento sobre el la igualdad y el sexo puede afectar al sistema de actitudes (García-Pérez, Sala, Rodríguez & Sabuco, 2013) y la educación, como institución mediadora entre la persona y la cultura, juega un papel clave en la construcción de la identidad de género; por ello es importante que asuma su rol formativo en la igualdad a partir de una postura construccionista (doing gender), que se materialice en acciones concretas y en el desarrollo de capacidades integradas, tanto en la educación formal como en la educación universitaria.…”
