Cultural Factors in Asian-American students’ stress

Cultural factors of the pressure of Asian students "Why is only 99 points, what else happened?" In Confucian society, people generally expect high academic achievement. As a representative of people with two cultural backgrounds, I am a messenger of Asian culture and American culture. In most cases, both cultures are interdependent, but sometimes these principles contradict. According to the US Department of Education, students of the Asia Pacific Islands have always achieved the highest GPA among all races between 1990 and 2005.

Many of the literature on Asian Americans are concerned about the success of Asians as to whether their higher education and income are "minorities of models" due to cultural factors and hard work. 1976) The academic performance of Asian American children and the more stable family structure of Asian Americans are cited as examples of success of their overall cultural value compared to other groups in the United States . Researchers are criticizing the success of Asian Americans:

The dominant model that we are proposing is that Asian children collapse with the expectation of pressure cooker and cultural shame. There are stories that Asian parents are raising their children and they do not know the pressure from their expectations. The story of immigrants prevents students from meeting impossible requirements of returns of interest. Asian children are very thin, and at the end of high school only lucky people will be beaten hard. Each house has a hidden strict cultural network that begins from the days of Confucius and Buddha, drops emotions, and works hard to cultivate self-discipline. When refusing to withdraw from this outdated idea, the family loses consciousness of national belonging, and it can apply more pressure to children. Upon arrival at the university, students in Asia can not adapt to the competitive environment or adapt to emotional openness communities.
