Asian Indians coming from India as adults, to either work or study in the U.S., may be considered to be 'consummate traditionalists' (Dasgupta, 1998) whereas Indian Americans may be perceived by Asian Indians as confused, identity-less, and conflicted or as "American-Born, Confused Desis" (ABCDs) (Poulsen, 2009, p. 168). The results of the qualitative analysis of a mixed-methods pilot study suggested that Indian Americans face bicultural stress and a lack of connection to their Indian roots whereas Asian Indians were sometimes thought of by Indian Americans as inadequately U.S. acculturated in social behavior, language, and education. The current study looked at whether social distancing occurred between adult Asian Indians and Indian Americans, because of prejudice and stereotyping, and whether acculturation level and social connectedness to the mainstream U.S. society and to the two ethnic communities predicted social distance that may exist between the groups.

520 $a Asian Indians coming from India as adults, to either work or study in the U.S., may be considered to be 'consummate traditionalists' (Dasgupta, 1998) whereas Indian Americans may be perceived by Asian Indians as confused, identity-less, and conflicted or as "American-Born, Confused Desis" (ABCDs) (Poulsen, 2009, p. 168). The results of the qualitative analysis of a mixed-methods pilot study suggested that Indian Americans face bicultural stress and a lack of connection to their Indian roots whereas Asian Indians were sometimes thought of by Indian Americans as inadequately U.S. acculturated in social behavior, language, and education. The current study looked at whether social distancing occurred between adult Asian Indians and Indian Americans, because of prejudice and stereotyping, and whether acculturation level and social connectedness to the mainstream U.S. society and to the two ethnic communities predicted social distance that may exist between the groups.
520 $a The results provide evidence for in-group and out-group effects between Asian Indians and Indian Americans, such that Asian Indians expressed more social distance towards Indian Americans than to their own group whereas Indian Americans expressed more social distance towards Asian Indians than their own group. Acculturation level was a significant predictor of social distance expressed towards Asian Indians by participants in both groups. For social distance expressed towards Indian Americans, group membership by itself was a significant predictor, with Asian Indians expressing more distance towards Indian Americans. Additionally, increased connectedness to the Indian American community appeared to serve as a protective factor in reducing the social distance expressed towards the group, especially when Indian American participants were also highly connected to the U.S. mainstream society.
