Using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), this thesis examines how parent’s religiosity and ethnic church involvement influences children’s internalizing (i.e., depression) and externalizing (i.e., problem behaviors) problems by affecting family relations and strengthening ethnic identity and church social support. The data were collected in 2007 (Wave 1) and 2008 (Wave2) as part of the Korean American Families (KAF) Project which surveyed Korean American adolescents in middle school and their parents living in Chicago and surrounding areas.
