	Chinese Influence ~ Australian Gold Rush Mogo South Coast NSW
		Various Chinese societies (eg the Sze Yap) tried to help these "strangers in a strange land" to be seen to conform with European standards.

		According to the Chinese zodiac, you take on the characteristics of the animal associated with the year of your birth, but those characteristics are also influenced by what time of day you're born, what fixed element you belong to (water, metal, wood, fire, earth), as well as the influence of Yin and Yang.

	Mok & Hughes 2004
		In a study of recent Australian immigrants of Chinese, Spanish and Middle Eastern background, Burnett (1998) found that prediction of settlement outcomes is difficult, because of complex processes at individual, family, institutional and societal levels.
		Some Chinese Australian families have lived in Australia for several generations, and there is increasing number of health professionals and others with knowledge of social science in the Australian Chinese community.
		Participatory action research is an appropriate framework for social research in the Australian Chinese Community, but as always, the research framework must be translated into cultural terms and symbols that are well understood within the local community, and the research method must adapt to the needs and cultural styles of the people.

	Crisp Volume 5 No. 10
		Fan and Karnilowicz (1997) found that among Chinese immigrant girls in Australia, definition of success in terms of self-actualization was positively related to length of residence in Australia and negatively related to degree of Chinese identification.
		The results of the present study also indicate that Chinese girls are not a homogeneous group and within the immigrant Chinese community there are specific factors, such as length of residence in the host country and degree of Chinese identification, which are related to their mathematics achievement.
		It is possible that Chinese girls who have been in Australia for a relatively long time endorse self-actualization more and this kind of achievement motivation is at least in part responsible for their achievement, in accordance with Maehr's (1984) model.

		New Gold Mountain was composed by George Dreyfus for the Australian Chinese Music Ensemble, and was later incorporated in a recording with the ensemble in the making of a DAT master tape at the SBS radio station.

	About - Chinese-Australian Historical Images in Australia
		The Chinese-Australian Historical Images in Australia (CHIA) database is a catalogue of historical images of Chinese, Chinese immigrants and their descendants held in Australia.
		The scope of the database is enormous and one of the first outcomes of the project was the positive realisation that the number of images and photographs of Chinese and their descendants in Australia was much larger than the project's resources.
		This has been driven by the needs of Austehc who were designing the database, the Chinese Museum and their collection needs and those of Sophie Couchman who was simultaneously using the database to assist research her PhD thesis as well as concurrently assisting with its development.

		The Chinese settlement of Australia has been a major element in the course and pattern of the history of the nation and of the Chinese Australian community.
