myth is insidious because it erases the heterogeneity of Asian identities and frames Asian-Americans as a privileged class. In reality, this myth minimizes the trauma of “micro”-aggressions, racism, and anti-Asian violence that many face. Furthermore, pressure
to meet the model minority ideology impacts perceptions of mental health functioning among Asian-Americans, masking unmet mental health needs (</span><a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27246287/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Cheng
