内容摘要： 我们调查了阿拉伯裔青年男性的身份如何与他们外在的和现象学的背景相关，以及如何与最近发生的与种族有关的政治事件的负面余波相关。来自7所有不同阿拉伯裔学生比例的美国中学的77位阿拉伯裔青年参加了专题小组的面谈。定性分析证实：年轻人的社会身份认同取决于个体、现状和背景因素的复杂组合。这些发现扩展了Spencer（斯潘塞）的PVEST理论：青年人的民族、泛阿拉伯、阿拉伯--美国或同化的美国身份特征来源于他们的现实背景的现象学经验和认知过程，以及他们在其它近端和远端背景下的前期经历的相关影响。

Abstract: We examine how the identities of male adolescents of Arab descent (ArD) relate to their current physical and phenomenological contexts and to the negative fallout from recent ethnicity-related political events. Seventy-seven ArD adolescents in seven United States middles schools with varying proportions of ArD students participated in focus-group interviews. Qualitative analysis provides evidence that adolescents’ social identities depend on complex combinations of personal, situational, and contextual factors. Findings extend Spencer’s PVEST theory, demonstrating that the salience of adolescents’ national, pan-Arab, hyphenated Arab-American, or assimilated American identity stems from phenomenological experiences within their current context and from the cognitive processes and associated affects of their prior experiences in other proximal and distal contexts.
