Effect of the Bienestar Health Program on Physical Fitness in Low-Income Mexican American Children
Once considered an adult onset disease, type 2 diabetes is increasingly being diagnosed in low-income Mexican American children. Studies have suggested that most of those so diagnosed were overweight, reported low levels of physical activity, and were generally unaware of their disease. The Bienestar Health Programwas designed to reduce risk factors associated with the onset of type 2 diabetes. A major focus of the curriculum is health and physic…
Do Role Models Influence Self Efficacy and Aspirations in Mexican American at-Risk Females
This study examined changes in levels of self efficacy and aspiration among participants in role model activities of the Hispanic Mother-Daughter Program. The results suggest caution about the use ofself-reportfeedbackfor evaluative purposes, and the manner in which role models are used as means for inspiring confidence in general, or affecting levels of self efficacy or aspirations in particular
Intergenerational Academic Aspirations of Mexican-American Females
This exploratory case study is designed to provide information regarding the trigenerational aspirations of Mexican-American women. The study specifically examines each mother's role in relation to her daughter's academic aspiration. Nine mother, daughter, and grandmother triads were interviewed and administered questionnaires. Variables examined include: (a) family characteristics, (b) career aspirations, (c) support of academic aspirations, (d)…
A Comparison of Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children Reliability for Mexican-Americans and Non-Hispanic Whites
Reliability estimates were calculated for the Mexican-American and non-Hispanic White standardization samples at eleven age levels on the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children using computed variance components. These estimates were compared as ratios of error variances and evaluated using F distributions. Ratios for the two groups at all age levels proved to be nonsignificant, indicative of statistically equivalent reliabilities for the two gr…
