Abstract

This phenomenological research examined the interaction between sibling relationships and culture in Latinx college students. Thematic analysis revealed participants identifying strongly with Latinx culture describe the importance of inter-familial dialogue and roles in their identity development, while parental expectations and values drove identity development in participants with less cultural exposure.
