Abstract

The Identity Project is a school-based intervention program that promotes adolescents’ ethnic-racial identity (ERI). Multi-group bilinear spline growth modeling revealed that the intervention reduced the ceiling effect of family ethnic socialization levels on growth in ERI exploration and promoted more positive growth in ERI resolution for ethnic-racial majority (White) adolescents.
