Abstract

ABSTRACT In many Latinx families, the core value of familismo is used in family-based decisions. Although not always culturally bonded, attributes of familismo are distinct across generations. For new Latinx youth, navigating the responsibility of community and familial relationships can be difficult when entering higher education. In the following study, researchers examined the role of familismo in relation to ethnic identity and belongingness among a sample of 98 Latinx university students through semi-structured interviews. The researchers discuss how the Latinx student populations handle the stress of higher education while maintaining cultural identity and traditional values of familismo.
