The answer is C: According to Phinney, identity development among ethnic minority adolescents involves a process in which youth must negotiate the values of their ethnic group with the values of the majority culture; the resulting combinations of this process are the four ethnic identity statuses of assimilation, marginality, separation, and biculturalism.

Explanation for each option:

A. Incorrect. This option incorrectly combines the process of identity exploration and commitment with the wrong set of identity statuses. The statuses listed (assimilation, marginality, separation, and biculturalism) are correct, but the explanation of the process is not aligned with Phinney's model.

B. Incorrect. This option describes the process of identity exploration and commitment but lists the identity statuses (diffusion, foreclosure, moratorium, and achievement) that are associated with James Marcia's model of identity development, not Phinney's model.

C. Correct. This option accurately describes Phinney's model, which involves negotiating the values of one's ethnic group with those of the majority culture. The resulting identity statuses—assimilation, marginality, separation, and biculturalism—are correctly identified.

D. Incorrect. This option describes the negotiation process correctly but lists the identity statuses associated with Marcia's model (diffusion, foreclosure, moratorium, and achievement), not Phinney's model.
