Cultural Socialization and Ethnic Pride Among Mexican-Origin Adolescents During the Transition to Middle School
Open accessAbstract
The relation between cultural socialization and ethnic pride during the transition to middle school was examined for 674 fifth-grade students (50% boys; Mage = 10.4 years) of Mexican origin. The theoretical model guiding the study proposes that parent–child relationship quality is a resource in the transmission of cultural values from parent to child and that parental warmth promotes the child's positive response to cultural socialization. Results showed that mother and father cultural socialization predicted youth ethnic pride and that this relation was stronger when parents were high in warmth. The findings highlight the positive role parent cultural socialization may play in the development of adolescent ethnic pride. Furthermore, findings reveal the role of parent–child relationship quality in this process.

Recent scholarship shows that family cultural socialization's developmental implications vary with contextual factors such as family relationships and neighborhood characteristics.
“Examining interactive effects is supported by recent scholarship documenting the varying developmental implications of family cultural socialization by contextual factors such as family relationships and neighborhood characteristics (Hernández, Conger, Robins, Bacher, & Widaman, 2014; Supple, Ghazarian, Frabutt, Plunkett, & Sands, 2006; Tsai, Telzer, Gonzales, & Fuligni, 2015).”
From Cultural Socialization Across Contexts: Family–Peer Congruence and Adolescent Well-Being (2016) · cites this paper as Hernández, Conger, Robins, Bacher, & Widaman, 2014
The Results (Testing the Theoretical Model) report that parental warmth moderated the association between cultural socialization and later ethnic pride, supporting the family-relationship part of the claim. The Discussion says ethnic identity can vary with neighborhood ethnic composition, but does not show that neighborhood characteristics change the developmental implications of family cultural socialization.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
