Spanish Language Assessments:  A Database of Available Measures and the Development of New Family Marital Process Measures

Roy Bean, Familiy Life

The Principal objective of this project is to collect existing Spanish-language assessment scales and measures that have been used with bi-lingual and mono-lingual adults, children, and adolescents in social science research literature.  The cataloging of relevant research tools is particularly important for the Spanish language given that Hispanics are the largest U.S. ethnic group (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1994) and one of the country's fastest growing populations.
