Taylor, Elizabeth R.; Wooten, Ray; Babcock, Bob; Hill, Floyd
Family Journal: Counseling and Therapy for Couples and Families, v10 n1 p27-33 Jan 2002
Researchers have indicated that members of Mexican American (MA) families of low socioeconomic status (SES) may have low self-esteem due a variety of influences. This research addresses these issues through the telling of a metaphorical story to 30 MA families. The metaphorical story did not significantly affect the relational esteem of MA families of low SES. (Contains 44 references and 3 tables.) (GCP)
