Abstract

As a group, Asian/Pacific Americans (APA) have more credits in high-level science and mathematics than other ethnic groups, but many APAs do not follow this “model minority” stereotype. This paper focuses on Asian/Pacific-American females who are socialized into traditional roles and are not academically prepared for higher education. Data were collected from questionnaires and life-history narratives completed by 46 part Hawaiian, Filipino, and Samoan-American public high school girls, and from their school records.
