Grounded in theory, Psychological Perspectives for the Chicanx and Latinx Family explores key issues affecting the psychology and well-being of Chicanx and Latinx families, the fastest growing ethnic group in the United States.

The book analyzes Latinx families through diverse theoretical models. It underscores gender and sexuality as important components of Latinx self-identity and provides readers with an overview of major issues affecting Latinx families today. The text reviews theories that explain how migration and its legacy impact family patterns, as well as how various social, political, and cultural factors influence gender roles, parenting styles, and power structures within families across generations.

The second edition features expanded coverage on family theory, transnational and trans-border families, queer family development, internal diversity, colorism, race of mixed individuals, and divorced and blended families.

Psychological Perspectives for the Chicano and Latino Family is ideal for courses in Chicanx studies, Latinx studies, and women and gender studies. It can also be used in any course addressing diverse family structures in the United States.
