Off one of the local yahoo groups comes word of a study:

Dear Parent,
I am a fifth-year graduate student at Ferkauf Graduate School of
Psychology of Yeshiva University and am currently collecting data for
my dissertation study. My study examines the cultural socialization
strategies employed by parents of girls adopted from Asia. As you are
likely well aware, cultural socialization refers to activities (e.g.,
language and dance classes, celebrating ethnic holidays) that parents
encourage their children to participate in, in order to establish a
connection and comfort with their birth culture.

In terms of demographics, I am seeking parents of female adoptees age
1½ -18. I am also interested in the perspectives of the adoptees aged
12 and over. Participation entails completion of several
questionnaires, which should take approximately 30 minutes to
complete. All responses will be confidential and treated as protected
health information. Also, this study has been approved by the
Institutional Review Board of Yeshiva University/Albert Einstein
College of Medicine.

If you are interested, please contact me at maisiec@gmail.com
