成功文化模式也有失敗時：移民香港的中國大陸青少年

When the Cultural Model of Success Fails: Mainland Chinese Teenage Immigrants in Hong Kong

本文明說近年移民到香港的中國大陸青少年，如何肩負父母期望，依從成功文化模式（cultural model of success），希冀通過移民到香港接受良好教育，以期有機會出人頭地，改善將來的生活。但由於移民過程中若干不利的因素，致使現實與成功文化模式有所差距。即使如何，他們也不會質疑這種文化模式的合理性，反而認為是個人問題所致，因而繼續複製這個文化模式。

The paper argues that when teenage immigrants from mainland China come to Hong Kong to join mainstream secondary education, they are expected to perform according to a cultural model of success －－that is , by immigrating to Hong Kong and getting a ”good education，”they believe they are guaranteed future economic success.
