Serrano, Elena; Anderson, Jennifer
Hispanic Journal of Behavioral Sciences, v25 n2 p240-53 May 2003
The Short Acculturation Scale for Hispanic Youth (SASH-Y) was used to assess acculturation among 137 fourth- and fifth-grade children in rural southern Colorado, including 11 Mexican, 33 Mexican American, and 93 Euro-American children. The SASH-Y, especially questions related to language use, was found to be robust with a young, rural Latino population. (TD)
