Many academic and public policies promote rapid immigrant assimilation. Yet, researchers have recently identified an emerging pattern, known as the immigrant paradox, in which assimilated children of immigrants experience diminishing developmental outcomes and educational achievements. This examines these findings by asking how and why highly acculturated youth may fare worse than their less assimilated peers, and under what circumstances this pattern is disrupted.
