dc.description.abstractMuslim youth living in Western countries are thought to face a variety of risks to their adjustment, although according to recent research they do not necessarily have negative outcomes in comparison to non-Muslims. In order to examine the complexities of development for Muslim youth in the West, it is necessary to have a comprehensive understanding of their lived experiences within their intercultural context. Therefore, this research study qualitatively investigated the indicators and determinants of participation and success for Muslim young adults in New Zealand. The results of this study enabled a framework to be developed that illustrates the most salient ecological resources youth access (family, religion and the intercultural environment), the risks they face (discrimination and cultural differences), and outcomes of the acculturation process. Results indicate that while Muslim youth in New Zealand may be at risk of maladaptative outcomes because of their exposure to discrimination and cultural transition stressors, ecological resources may counteract some of the negative effects of these stressors and enable these young people to become resilient.
