Abstract：
In addition to the unprecedented challenges and stressors that university students faced during the COVID-19 pandemic, Asian American students experienced specific hardships due to COVID-19-associated xenophobic attitudes, harassment, and assault against people of Asian complexions. This qualitative study aimed to explore the ways in which Asian American university students\' experiences during the pandemic changed their views of their identities as Asian Americans by analyzing in-depth interviews of four case study participants. Secondary analysis of two waves of interviews, which were conducted during the initial outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and during a six-month follow-up, and primary analysis of a newly conducted third wave one year after the initial outbreak yielded 12 themes that captured the essence of the Asian American university students\' experience and redefining of their identity during the pandemic. The four participants identified these themes across four categories: Experiences and Events during the Pandemic; Categorization of Asians in America; Confronting Asian Discrimination; and Renewed Sense of Identity. The longitudinal findings revealed direct experiences and perspectives regarding the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on Asian communities, as well as the impact of the various social and political events during this time period, such as the Black Lives Matter Movement (2020) and the 2020 US presidential election. The implications, limitations, and future directions are discussed.
摘要：
除了大学生在COVID-19大流行期间面临的前所未有的挑战和压力外，亚裔美国学生由于与COVID-19相关的仇外态度而经历了特殊的困难，骚扰,攻击亚洲肤色的人。这项定性研究旨在通过分析四个案例研究参与者的深入访谈，探索亚裔美国大学生在大流行期间的经历改变了他们对亚裔美国人身份的看法。对两波采访的二次分析，这是在COVID-19大流行的最初爆发期间和六个月的随访期间进行的，对首次爆发一年后新进行的第三波的初步分析产生了12个主题，这些主题抓住了亚裔美国大学生在大流行期间的经历和重新定义他们的身份的精髓。四名参与者从四个类别中确定了这些主题：大流行期间的经历和事件；美国亚洲人的分类；面对亚洲歧视；和更新的认同感。纵向研究结果揭示了关于COVID-19大流行对亚洲社区影响的直接经验和观点，以及在此期间各种社会和政治事件的影响，如黑人生命也是运动(2020)和2020年美国总统大选。的影响，局限性,并讨论了未来的方向。
