AB  - BACKGROUND: The present study examined the associations among ethnic identity, 
      perceived discrimination and multiple indicators of positive youth development 
      (PYD; i.e., intrapersonal-oriented competence, interpersonal-oriented competence, 
      confidence, caring, character, family connection, peer connection, school and 
      community connection, positive attitudes towards diversity and cultural pride) 
      that were specifically identified among second-generation Chinese-American youth. 
      METHODS: Participants were 196 second-generation Chinese-American youth (N 
      (girl) = 93; M (age) = 14.56, SD (age) = 1.75) primarily from the greater Boston 
      area in MA, United States. Multivariate regression models were estimated to 
      examine the associations between ethnic identity, perceived discrimination, and 
      each potential indicator of PYD, as well as the moderating role of ethnic 
      identity, controlling for key demographics. RESULTS: (1) Ethnic identity was 
      positively related to all PYD indicators, betas = .32 to .72, ps < .01; (2) 
      perceived discrimination was negatively associated with all indicators of PYD 
      (betas = -.15 to -.32, ps < .05), except for interpersonal-oriented competence and 
      caring; and (3) ethnic identity significantly moderated the relationship between 
      perceived discrimination and family connection (beta = .23, p < .01). CONCLUSIONS: 
      Findings indicate that whereas discrimination has potential negative effects on 
      the positive development of second-generation Chinese-American youth, ethnic 
      identity may be a key strength that should be considered in PYD promotion 
      practices for these youth.
