About the Program:
21st Century globalization is a dynamic macro context for human dev
elopment that reverberates down to the family microsystem. Is globalization
all bad for youth and families? In this lecture, I will argue that globali
zation involves both risks and opportunities that function as a crucible in
which cultural identity development and family resilience are forged. Firs
t, I will summarize supporting evidence of this proposition from four diffe
rent lines of research in my lab conducted locally in MN and globally. Seco
nd, I will zoom in on one mixed methods translational research line origina
ting in Jamaica called “JUS Media?” to more fully describe the content and
processes involved in cultural identity development and family resilience a
rising from “remote acculturation”, a modern form of globalization-related
acculturation to a distant non-native culture that acts as a cultural deter
minant of health (Ferguson et al., 2012, 2015, 2018, 2020, etc.). Translati
ng remote acculturation theory and empirical findings from the lab to the l
iving room and classroom, JUS Media? is an efficacious multi-format prevent
ive intervention designed to protect against the risks that U.S.-produced j
unk food advertising presents to the diets of Americanizing adolescents tra
nsnationally.
