“…Given that TAT is developed to center around a family’s unique community contexts, the application is positioned to support diverse families within their current routines and provide positive tips to support parents in their community—essential for culturally relevant family interventions (Ayón, Williams, Marsiglia, Ayers, & Kiehne, 2015). Although the application and the tips are currently available in English and Spanish, future studies should examine how TAT can support the diverse needs and strengths of all families, while taking into account cultural variations in parent–child conversation.…”

Supports are largely absent and tools are scarce to assist parents receiving home-based early intervention services (e.g., Early Head Start) with enriching the language learning environments of young children beyond home to the community. Talk Around Town is a wayfinding mobile application designed to provide real-time, location-specific, evidence-based communication strategies to parents in community settings (e.g., park, community center, store, library). The application uses Global Positioning System (GPS) functionality within smartphones and Google Maps to support caregiver talk in community locations. The purpose of this pilot study is to examine early childhood service providers’ and parents’ perceptions of Talk Around Town. Overall, parents and early childhood service providers’ perspectives were largely positive. Implications for future research are discussed (e.g., tailoring the application for Department of Human Services caseworkers).

“…One strand of adaptation research has centered specifically on meeting the unique needs of Hispanic and Latino families (Latino used herein) in the United States (Dumka, Lopez, & Carter, 2002; Parra‐Cardona et al., 2012). Growing evidence indicates that sociocultural factors (e.g., familismo (strong family ties), collectivism) can moderate parenting practices among Latino families (Ayón, Williams, Marsiglia, Ayers, & Kiehne, 2015) and their social network resources (Ruiz, Hamann, Mehl, & O'Connor, 2016). These factors are also associated with prosocial behaviors among Latino youth (Davis et al., 2018).…”

Human Subjects Approval: The information collection protocol was reviewed and approved by the IRB of Oklahoma State University, Protocol HE1484 "Legacy for Children TM Implementation Study." The study also received a Certificate of Confidentiality, issued by CDC. ABSTRACTLegacy for Children TM (Legacy) is an evidence-based program focused on promoting sensitive, responsive parenting for socioeconomically disadvantaged families. Legacy has recently been culturally and linguistically adapted for Spanish-monolingual Latino families and is being piloted in partnership with an early childhood education program. We conducted a mixed methods study to identify barriers and facilitators to engagement, using program monitoring data sources from both participant and group leader perspectives. We conducted qualitative analyses of open-ended data to identify distinct barriers (e.g., employment challenges, health-related challenges and appointments) and facilitators (e.g., other mothers in group, interest in program topics) to engagement that emerged across English and Spanish language curriculum versions; curriculum-specific barriers and facilitators were also documented. We interpret these findings in light of quantitative data on measures of engagement, showing that participants in the Spanish curriculum evidenced comparable levels of parent-group leader relationship quality relative to the English group, and higher levels of parent's group support/connectedness and overall satisfaction. These results offer promising considerations for optimizing families' engagement in parenting programs in the context of early care and education settings.

“…A growing number of studies have examined the potential role of culturally specific determinants of parenting practices for Latinx families. These studies have investigated potential determinants, such as familísmo (i.e., strong orientation and commitment toward the family), respéto (i.e., deference to authority), machísmo and marianísmo (i.e., traditional masculine and feminine gender values, respectively; e.g., Ayón et al, 2015;Calderón-Tena et al, 2011). However, only a small number of studies has investigated the trajectories of these parental cultural values (Gonzales et al, 2018;Knight et al, 2014); thus, the degree to which changes in these parental cultural values predict changes in parenting practices has been unclear.…”

ObjectiveTo investigate the trajectories of culturally specific predictors of parenting practices in Latinx families: familism (familísmo), respect (respéto), traditional gender role attitudes (machísmo and marianísmo), and the degree to which these parental cultural values predict changes in parenting practices.BackgroundCultural values have been suggested to predict Latinx parenting practices, but there is a paucity of direct evidence. The current study fills the gap by testing such associations using corresponding measures.MethodWe followed 549 Mexican‐origin families from when the adolescents (52% female) were in the fifth to eleventh grade. Parental authoritativeness, monitoring, and hostility were reported by multiple informants. Growth curve modeling was used.ResultsMost trajectories of these parental cultural values showed small but significant declines during offspring adolescence, particularly when adolescent use of Spanish or parent–adolescent conflict was high. Parental cultural values predicted changes in parenting practices in four of 36 models, wherein initial paternal familísmo predicted decrease in paternal authoritativeness toward daughters, initial maternal traditional gender values predicted decrease in maternal hostility toward daughters, and initial parental traditional gender values predicted decrease in parental monitoring of sons.ConclusionAlthough parental cultural values do not consistently predict changes in parenting practices, parental cultural values decrease with specific groups during specific times (i.e., during adolescence, especially in families with high parent–adolescent conflict or wherein the adolescent uses Spanish frequently).ImplicationsMore attention to measured constructs in research on Latinx families and validity of parenting is required. Research on nuanced or lower order components of acculturation is needed.
