Abstract

Using a college student sample of diverse Hispanic national origin, it was found that Spanish language competency pressures, English language competency pressures, and pressures to acculturate were positive predictors of antisocial behaviors whereas social relationships were a negative predictor. These findings have implications for Hispanic-serving institutions.
