Attitudes and behavior: a comparison of immigrant and non-immigrant adolescents in Israel
Article Abstract:
A study comparing the behaviour and attitudes of non-immigrant and immigrant adolescents in Israel shows that immigrant youths are more likely to experience problems, including unhappiness and alcohol consumption. The results show that immigrant adolescents associate best with other immigrants, while non-immigrants tend to associate with friends from their own ethnic groups.
