What's Values Got to Do With It? Thriving Among Mexican/Mexican American College Students

View through CrossRef
The authors examined traditional Mexican/Mexican American and perceived U.S. mainstream cultural values as predictors of thriving. One hundred twenty‐four (37 men, 87 women) self‐identified Mexican/Mexican American college students participated in the study. The traditional Mexican/Mexican American cultural values of family support and religion were significant positive predictors of thriving. In addition, the perceived U.S. mainstream cultural value of competition negatively predicted thriving, and the perceived U.S. mainstream cultural value of material success positively predicted thriving. Implications and limitations of the study are discussed.Los autores examinaron valores culturales tradicionales mexicano‐americanos y percibidos como dominantes en los Estados Unidos como indicadores de prosperidad. Ciento veinticuatro (37 hombres y 87 mujeres) estudiantes universitarios que se identifican como mexicanos o mexicano‐americanos participaron en el estudio.

UU. de competitividad fue indicador negativo de prosperidad, y el valor percibido como dominante en EE. UU. de éxito material fue indicador positivo de prosperidad.
