摘要

The aim of this study was to investigate the image of African American women in popular culture and gain an understanding of how those images are interpreted by urban African American adolescent girls (N=40) between the ages of 13-19 years old. Black magazine covers and hip-hop/rap music videos that display images of African American women were viewed by the participants. Questions were asked of the girls that explored whether popular culture media images of African American women affect the interpretation of their self-esteem, choices they make, and future chances in life. Specifically, I sought to understand: 1) Do images of African American women shown in popular culture influence the interpretation of life chances and life choices of urban African American adolescent girls, and if so, how?; and 2) Whether portrayals of African American women in popular culture influence the interpretation of the self-esteem of urban African American adolescent girls. A mixed method research process was used to gather data that represents the participants' perspectives. Results from the questionnaires suggest that some participants perceive that popular culture images of African American women influence their life chances and life choices, while others also resist the image on some level. The quantitative findings from the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale indicate that the participants either have high or normal self-esteem.

(2)流行文化中非洲裔美国妇女的刻画是否影响了城市非洲裔美国少女的自尊心。混合方法研究过程用于收集代表参与者观点的数据。调查表的结果表明,一些参与者认为非裔美国女性的流行文化形象会影响她们的生活机会和生活选择,而另一些人也会在某种程度上抵制这种形象。罗森伯格自尊量表的定量结果表明,参与者的自尊心很高或正常。
