Abstract
The cognitive construction issues of second-generation Chinese immigrants have received widespread attention, but there is still a lack of analysis from the perspective of identity recognition. This article analyzes the influencing factors of cognitive construction for second-generation Chinese immigrants from the viewpoint of identity recognition. This article analyzes how the cognitive construction and social concepts of second-generation Chinese immigrants are related to language and education. Based on this, there are some suggestions in the article. First, achieve the formation of diverse concepts among the second generation of Chinese descendants through family education. Second, from an individual perspective, making a balance between Eastern and Western values to form suitable values. Finally, respecting the cultures of various countries and integrating into mainstream society. Through these analyses and recommendations, it can gain a deeper understanding of the cognitive construction problems faced by second-generation Chinese immigrants and find effective solutions to promote their identity recognition and social integration.
