Journal Article
Does Oppositional Culture Exist in Minority and Poverty Peer Groups?
2002
Overview
A comment on a 1998 article by James W. Ainsworth-Darnell and Douglas B. Downey evaluating reasons for racial/ethnic differences in school performance suggests that their rejection of the oppositional culture hypothesis may be premature. Here, both their original data and a new data set are analyzed for samples of 4th- and 10th-grade black and white students using a more direct measure of the peer group rejection described by the oppositional culture hypothesis. It is suggested that Ainsworth-Darnell and Downey did not adequately consider the coping strategies used by academically oriented minority or low-income adolescents to remain popular within their own peer group despite opposition from that group toward academic performance. Suggestions are offered for further research. 2 Tables, 37 References. K. H. Stewart.
