Theory-based Constructs of Culture in Research with Latinos

This interactive session, designed for scholars interested or engaged in research with Latinos, will examine ways to systematically and concretely consider culture in study designs. It will include a discussion of theory-based constructs of culture and their application in studies with diverse Latino populations. Emphasis will be placed on cultural constructs with direct implications for interventions that aim to support Latinos. Drawing on research conducted by the presenter and others as examples, participants will have the opportunity to explore how to incorporate culture into their own work.
