Here are some representative norms: Among older American adults, men score 28 on average and women score 26. The average North American college student scores between 23 and 25; eastern European and Chinese students on average score between 16 and 19. Male prison inmates score about 12 on average, as do hospital inpatients. Psychological outpatients score between 14 and 18 on average, and abused women and elderly caregivers (both surprisingly) score about 21 on average."<br /><br />--Martin Seligman, _Authentic Happiness_gwernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18349479103216755952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36405856.post-44601050002128759662012-06-21T11:02:39.698-04:002012-06-21T11:02:39.698-04:00Thibault: Possibly this?

The former forces a binary answer (you don’t usually say you are from XYZ country AND America), but the latter allows for a bit more nuance. An ethnic Korean living in America could identify themselves as Korean, Korean-American, Asian-American, or American, all of which have different implications. <br /><br />Honestly, I think as long as you're not asking "Where are you from? No, where are you REALLY from?" you'll probably be just fine.TLPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04802204694639692638noreply@blogger.com
