مستخلص: Korean adoptees undergo events that impact the salience and development of multiple minority identities over time. Eight Korean adoptees completed two semi-structured interviews. Using an interpretative phenomenological approach, seven superordinate themes were identified: Coping with Adoption; Experiences Around Visiting Korea; Identity; Mental Health; Minority Distress; Reactions to Participation; and Social Support. The study highlighted the Korean adoptees' sense making and recall of significant experiences within various settings and contexts. The theory of intersectionality contextualized the individual differences, multiple minority identities, and highlighted social and cultural oppression. The data uniquely informs clinical decision-making and considerations when working with Korean adoptee individuals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
