Socialization and Family Correlates of Mental Health Outcomes among Hispanic and Anglo American Children: Considerations of Cross-Ethnic Scalar Equivalence.
Knight, George P.; And Others
Child Development, v65 n1 p212-24 Feb 1994
Compared socialization, family, and mental health variables among 231 low socioeconomic status Hispanic and Anglo-American preadolescents and their mothers. Found that Anglo-American mothers, compared to Hispanic mothers, reported less rejection and inconsistent discipline, but also less cohesion. Anglo-American children reported less rejection, less depression, and more acceptance and open communication than did the Hispanic children. (MDM)
