This study utilized anonymous survey data and interviews to investigate the prevalence and effects of intergenerational and cultural conflict on the identity and mental health of 18--28 year-old second generation South Asian-Americans. One hundred three South Asian-Americans completed an anonymous survey; 33 were interviewed face-to-face. Depression and anxiety scores as measured by the CES-D and the SCL-90R were usually higher among those who reported more conflict with parents, as well as among those who reported more cultural conflict between their parents' culture and the American one. Survey data told a story of minimal mental health problems, whereas interview data told one of considerable anxiety over negotiating two sets of often-conflicting cultural norms. In both data sources, the most common sources of intergenerational and cultural conflict were dating and marriage norms, college major and career choices, and socializing. Respondents often lied in order to get around parents' restrictions, and experienced a great deal of anxiety about the lying. Yet, they justified it by a common concern to maintain their reputation in the South Asian diasporic community. Despite that a majority displayed a preference for many "American" norms (particularly concerning dating, socializing, and entertainment), there was considerable evidence that most identified heavily with their parents' cultures and were quite critical of "American" culture. Most preferred to identify as either South Asian or South Asian-American; few wanted or claimed to be simply "American." The conclusion discusses both the limitations of using North American-normed survey instruments with subcultures that may encourage hiding distress, as well as how both cultural and structural influences allow second generation South Asian-Americans' simultaneous acculturation and ethnic retention.
