Answer to Question 1

Familism is the idea that the family's well-being takes precedence over the concerns of individual family members. It influences parental values by placing the well-being of the family at the center stage of all parental decision-making. This value is a defining characteristic of Latino families and helps account for the significantly higher trend for Latino college students to live at home. The extended family is also very strong among Latino families and serves as the venue for a wide range of exchanges of goods and services. Asian Americans also value familism and place an even higher value on extended family.
