83rd Annual Meeting of the Midwestern Psychological Association

Hispanic culture emphasizes interdependence and Caucasian culture independence and preliminary results suggest that differences in Hispanic and Caucasian mothers’ conceptions of young children’s competence already reflect these general ethnic norms.
