Overview
The mental health outcomes of immigrant and non-immigrant youth were examined based on a national sample of over 7000 New Zealand European, Asian and Pacific youth.
Although results varied across ethnic groups, overall results indicated that non-immigrant youth had better mental health outcomes than immigrant youth and that second-generation adolescents had better outcomes than their first-generation peers.
