This study investigated the inter group differences in the relationship between Asian parent empowerment and their children’s college enrollment in a nationally representative sample of 982 parents selected from the High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 (HSLS: 2009; Ingels, et al, 2011). The study also explored how the effects of parent empowerment vary for college enrollment from disparate ethnic and economic backgrounds. A multinomial logistic regression indicated that significant differences existed in the relationship between college enrollment and parents’ sense of meaning, competence, STEM participation, self-determination, and community participation based on their ethnicity and socioeconomic status. The results highlighted importance of considering ethnic variation among Asian parents in designing culturally responsive counseling practices.
