Maladaptive perfectionism and depressive symptoms among Asian American college students: Contributions of interdependence and parental relations.

“Yoon and Lau's (2008) findings supported the second model, as will be discussed in the next section.”

“They reasoned that a focus on interpersonal responsibility may cause interdependent individuals to be motivated by fear of disappointing others.”

In the citing paper

“Cultural values placed on a sense of filial obligation in Asian American families increased the risk for maladaptive perfectionism and was associated with negative academic and mental health outcomes.”

In the citing paper

“Despite interdependence being a cultural value among Asian Americans, findings revealed that individuals who were high in interdependence correlated with maladaptive perfectionism and depressive symptomatology scores, supporting the cultural sensitisation model.”

In the citing paper

“Interdependence was also associated with measures of parent-driving perfectionism (the sum of Parental Expectation and Criticism FMPS scores) but was not associated with adaptive perfectionism.”

“Within this interdependent context, individuals may feel the need to protect one's own selfimage or the image of the group they belong to (Yoon & Lau, 2008), or in other words, to 'save face' (Ho, 1976; Kim & Nam, 1998; Yu & Wen, 2003; Zhang et al., 2011).”

“While this sheds light on Asian international student experiences in particular, it also supports previous research noting that Asian American college students were less likely to mobilise social support to cope with stress due to concerns about being criticised, saving face , and not burdening others (Taylor, Sherman, Kim, Jarcho, Takagi, & Dunagan, 2004; Yoon & Lau, 2008).”

In the citing paper

“Most participants reported a pressure to meet expectations mostly from their parents, indicating a value accorded to interpersonal obligations, expectations, and responsibilities, which past researchers have examined as interdependence, a characteristic of collectivism (Markus & Kitayama, 1991; Yoon & Lau, 2008).”

In the citing paper

“Again, this suggests previous research on Asian American college students that self-reported social anxiety and depressive symptoms stemmed from interdependent concerns (Okazaki, 1997; Yoon & Lau, 2008).”

In the citing paper

“This supports previous research that found associations between perceptions of high parental expectations and criticism with depression among Asian American college students (Yoon & Lau, 2008).”

In the citing paper

“Past research has found a tendency for Asian communities to be interdependent, a dimension of collectivism, which means defining the self based on interpersonal relationships and obligations within one's community (Markus & Kitayama, 1991; Yoon & Lau, 2008).”

In the citing paper

“Among youth who have grown up in Asia who then attend college in the US, the context of heightened academic concerns such as duty to parents (Yoon & Lau, 2008) and saving face may provide a greater susceptibility to maladaptive perfectionism and associated psychological distress.”

In the citing paper

“all of which create a susceptibility among Asian youth to developing anxiety and depressive symptoms (Yoon & Lau, 2008).”
