Burnam, M. Audrey; And Others – Hispanic Journal of Behavioral Sciences, 1987
A 26-item acculturation measure administered to a sample of 1,245 adult Mexican Americans demonstrated high internal reliability for the total sample and for specific sex, educational, and language groups. Among first generation Mexican Americans, those who were younger and male acculturated more rapidly than those who were older and female. (JHZ)
