BratinaEl Paso LFB Scholarly Publishing LLC20131 online resource (199 p.)Criminal justice: recent scholarshipDescription based upon print version of record.1-59332-605-X Includes bibliographical references and index.Bratina studied a group of Latino males to examine how attitudes that endorse the use of violence are influenced by assimilation. The sample was partially derived from Social Networking Sites (SNS) including MySpace and Facebook. The primary expectation was that pro-violent attitudes would vary depending on level of assimilation. Bratina expected a significant positive relationship between highly assimilated Latinos and pro-violent attitudes. By-and-large, endorsement of violence was low among this overwhelmingly assimilated group; however, multivariate analyses revealed a different picture.Criminal Justice: Recent ScholarshipAcculturationUnited StatesViolenceUnited StatesHispanic AmericansAttitudesElectronic books.AcculturationViolenceHispanic AmericansAttitudes.305.868/073Bratina Michele P.1972-893753MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462886403321Acculturation and attitudes toward violence among Latinos1996404UNINA
