Abstract

This study pays attention to the dynamic relationship of affect discrimination perception on social withdrawal by mediating multicultural acceptability attitudes. To estimate the relationship, we used a Multivariate Latent Growth Model. The analysis results of this study are as follows. First, discrimination perception had a positive effect on the social withdrawal in the early stage. However, discrimination perception and social withdrawal they received as they grew up did not show a significant relationship between the two. Second, overall high level of perception of discrimination showed a low multicultural acceptability attitudes (both foreign culture and Korean culture). Third, multicultural acceptability attitudes in the early stage had a negative effect on high level of social withdrawal, and the acceptability attitude they took while growing up also had a negative effect on the social withdrawal. Fourth, multicultural acceptability attitudes showed indirect effects between discrimination perception and social withdrawal. This study suggests that the government needs public education and policy PR for enhancing multicultural consciousness. This study proposes that it is necessary to prepare systems and measures to support underprivileged multiethnic adolescents.
