Abstract

This study will examine ethnic-racial socialization (ERS) messages in Latinx families. Specifically, how do parents and grandparents in the same household engage in ERS with Latinx youth? Further, how do parents vs. grandparents' ERS messages mitigate the association between youth-reported discrimination and internalizing and externalizing problems?
