The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the role of native language and culture, within the domain of ethnic identity, in the academic success of Latino and Asian American students. Student and parental perspectives were considered in determining to what extent these elements of ethnic identity influenced global and academic self-concept (Buriel & Vasquez, 1982; Frazier & DeBlassie, 1982; Maruyama, Rubin & Kingsbury, 1981; Phinney & Chavira, 1992; Wigfield & Karpathian, 1991; Zou, 1998). A cross-cultural comparison was made between Latino and Asian American ethnic groups in order to determine what experiences and beliefs are shared regarding native language and culture. These findings yielded important data that are helpful in tailoring educational interventions for a growing number of Latino students experiencing underachievement and dropout (Davison-Aviles, Guerrero, Howarth & Thomas, 1999; Ceballo, 2004; Jasis & Ordoniz-Jasis, 2004; Ream, 2003).

520 $a The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the role of native language and culture, within the domain of ethnic identity, in the academic success of Latino and Asian American students. Student and parental perspectives were considered in determining to what extent these elements of ethnic identity influenced global and academic self-concept (Buriel & Vasquez, 1982; Frazier & DeBlassie, 1982; Maruyama, Rubin & Kingsbury, 1981; Phinney & Chavira, 1992; Wigfield & Karpathian, 1991; Zou, 1998). A cross-cultural comparison was made between Latino and Asian American ethnic groups in order to determine what experiences and beliefs are shared regarding native language and culture. These findings yielded important data that are helpful in tailoring educational interventions for a growing number of Latino students experiencing underachievement and dropout (Davison-Aviles, Guerrero, Howarth & Thomas, 1999; Ceballo, 2004; Jasis & Ordoniz-Jasis, 2004; Ream, 2003).
520 $a This study, using archival data from an ethnographic case study sponsored by the Spencer Foundation (Zou & Trueba, 2001), examined students from two suburban Texas high schools, one with a high Latino student representation, and the other with a significant Asian American student population. Primarily through interviewing and observational techniques, students were selected on their ability to articulate their experience and understanding of the factors involved in their personal academic achievement. Twenty-six students (16 Latino and 10 Asian American) were then selected for an in-depth interview. Of those, one Latino and one Asian American student was selected for the completion of a case study requiring classroom visitation, interviews with teachers, and parental interviews in the home setting.
520 $a The data analysis supported previous studies in suggesting that native language and culture are quite prominent in determining Latino and Asian American student global self-concept. Native language maintenance was a powerful determinant of a positive ethnic self-identity. Student perceptions of societal regard toward their ethnic group influenced the development of either a positive or negative ethnic self-concept. A positive ethnic self-concept increased the individual's global self-concept---which worked in conjunction with the academic self-concept in helping to achieve individual and educational goals.
520 $a An extrapolation was made regarding the importance of native language. The evidence suggested that the native language served as the primary means by which the ethic of respect was preserved for both ethnic groups. This finding emerged from the respondents' commentary about the nature of the languages used to transmit their cultural values. These languages have specific grammatical apparatuses designed to convey respect to the appropriate persons of higher status. Thus, the preservation of native languages may be the most important determinant in whether an individual's core values are maintained during the period of high socio-cultural change.
