Conformity

A characteristic of the racial/cultural identity development model(RCID) , distinguished by an unequivocal preference for dominant cultural values over their own

Marginal person

A person caught between two cultural traditions who attempts to assimilate into the dominant culture because of negative attitudes held toward ones own group, but not fully accepted by the majority population

Dissonance Attitudes and beliefs toward members of a different marginalized group

Stereotypes associated with other marginalized groups are questioned, and a growing sense of comradeship with other oppressed groups is felt.

Incorporation stage

Th e incorporation stage represents the highest form of identity evolution. It encompasses the development of a positive and comfortable identity as Asian American and consequent respect for other cultural/racial heritages. Identification with a stance for or against White culture is no longer an important issue.

Peencounter

Th e preencounter stage is characterized by African Americans' consciously or unconsciously devaluing their own Blackness and concurrently valuing White values and ways. There is a strong desire to assimilate and acculturate into White society. Blacks at this stage evidence self-hate, low self-esteem, and poor mental health

What is the assumption of the Cross Model?

The evolution from the preencounter stage to the internalization stage reflects a movement from psychological dysfunction to psychological health

Redirection Stage

means a reconnection or renewed connection with one's Asian American heritage and culture. This is often followed by the realization that White oppression is the culprit for the negative experiences of youth. Anger against White racism may become a defining theme, with concomitant increases of Asian American self-pride and group pride

Introspection phase attitudes towards self

the person now feels that he or she has too rigidly held onto the group views and notions in order to submerge personal autonomy

Resistance and immersion attitudes towards members of a different marginalized group

Alliances with other groups tend to be transitory and based on short-term goals or some global shared view of oppression.

race awakening

An individuals understanding of themselves as racial/cultural being and how it impacts their perception of the world and relationship with others

Cognitive Stage

As a result of negative/ distorted messages, three erroneous belief systems about Chicano/Latina/o heritage become incorporated into mental sets: (a) Ethnic group membership is associated with poverty and prejudice; (b) assimilation to White society is the only means of escape; and (c) assimilation is the only possible road to success.

White Identification Stage

Begins when children enter school, where peers and the surroundings become powerful forces in conveying racial prejudice that negatively impacts their self-esteem and identity. The realization of "differentness" from such interactions leads to self-blame and a desire to escape racial heritage by identifying with White society

Latino American Identity Models

Causal Stage; Cognititive Stage; Consequence Stage; Working Through Stage; Successful Resolution Stage; Successful Relations Stage

Introspection

Clients at the introspection phase may continue to prefer a counselor of their own race, but they are also receptive to help from therapists of other cultures as long as the therapists understand their clients' worldview.

Integrative phase counseling implications

Clients at this stage have acquired an inner sense of security around their self-identity. They have pride in their racial/cultural heritage but can exercise a desired level of personal freedom and autonomy; Being action- or systems-oriented, clients respond positively to the designing and implementation of strategies aimed at community and societal change. Preferences for therapists are based not on race, but on the ability to share, understand, and accept their worldviews

Dissonance counseling phase counseling implications

Clients believe that society is to blame for their present dilemma and actively challenge the establishment- 1) therapist will be viewed by the client as a symbol of the oppressive society. If you become defensive and personalize the attacks, you will lose eff ectiveness in working with the client 2) realize that clients in this stage will constantly test you. In earlier chapters we described how minority clients will pose challenges to therapists in order to test their trustworthiness (sincerity, openness, and nondefensiveness) and expertise (competencies). 3) individuals at this phase are especially receptive to approaches that are more action-oriented and aimed at external change

Consequence

Encounter stage

Conformity Attitudes toward members of the same group
