The idea
Ethnic identity shifts from physical features at three to five to language, ancestry and culture in middle childhood, and by eight includes group pride.
In practice
Puerto Rican children stressing cultural events and pride, Chinese American children stressing language.
Where people slip
By eight, children name the same elements of ethnic identity, appearance, culture and pride, that adolescents name.
