SEI = Strong Ethnic Identification; MEI = Moderate Ethnic Identification; SA/WE = Strong Affirmation/Weak Exploration. The Monocultural-Assimilation profile was set as the baseline category for the criterion. The baseline category for the time spent in the United States was “all my life.” The baseline category for the experience of visiting family or friends living outside the United States was “never.” The baseline category for the best friend’s ethnicity/nationality was “White.”

0 = girl; 1 = boy.
