一项对拉丁裔和非拉丁裔大学生的调查旨在研究与父母的代际冲突与文化适应、家庭动态和社会心理功能有关的方式。参与者报告了他们与父母经历两种代际冲突的程度：价值观/期望冲突和文化适应冲突，例如他们的父母认为他们“太美国化”。第一代和第二代拉丁美洲人报告说，他们比第三代拉丁美洲人和欧洲裔美国人或非洲裔美国人经历了更多的文化适应冲突。在拉丁美洲样本的回归分析表明，这两种类型的冲突与父母的文化适应变量，较低的家庭凝聚力，增加家庭控制。这两种类型的冲突显着预测抑郁症和较低的自尊，即使在控制了世代地位和家庭变量。
An investigation of Latino and non-Latino college students sought to examine the ways in which perceived intergenerational conflicts with parents are related to acculturation, family dynamics, and psychosocial functioning. Participants reported the extent to which they experienced two types of intergenerational conflicts with parents: values/expectations conflicts and acculturation conflicts such as their parents' perception that they are "too American". First- and second-generation Latinos reported experiencing more acculturation conflicts than third-generation Latinos and European Americans or African Americans. Regression analyses within the Latino sample indicated that both types of conflicts with parents were predicted by acculturation variables, lower family cohesion, and increased family control. Both types of conflicts were significant predictors of depression and lower self-esteem, even after controlling for generation status and family variables.
