요약	The Societal Attitudinal Familial Ethnic (SAFE) Acculturative Stress Scale is a self-report instrument designed to measure the psychological stress and strain experienced by individuals during the acculturation process—the adaptation of cultural attitudes, behaviors, and identities when navigating between heritage and dominant cultures. Developed by Chavez, Cervantes, and Busch-Rossnagel in 1997, the SAFE Scale assesses stress across multiple domains: pressure to acculturate from society, family discord related to cultural differences, and experiences of discrimination. The instrument is widely used in clinical, educational, and research settings to evaluate acculturative stress among immigrant and ethnic minority populations and to understand its effects on mental health and well-being.	The Multigroup Ethnic Identity Measure (MEIM) is a self-report instrument designed to assess ethnic identity development among adolescents and young adults from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Originally developed by Phinney in 1992, the MEIM measures two primary dimensions: ethnic identity search (active exploration of one's ethnicity) and affirmation-belonging-commitment (positive feelings and sense of belonging to one's ethnic group). The instrument is widely used in developmental, clinical, and health research to evaluate ethnic identity formation, its relationship to psychological well-being, and health outcomes across diverse populations.
