This study explores the relationship between television viewing (hours per week in general and number of Spanish-language programs watched in particular) and self-concept among 117 Spanish-surnamed elementary school children in a small, semirural school district in southern California. The study was conducted by administering a one-time questionnaire and the results are based on mostly zero- and first-order correlations. Contrary to our expectations, (a) amount of viewing was insignificantly related to self-concept, and (b) Spanish-language television viewing was not correlated significantly with self-concept However, Hispanic American girls tend to watch Spanish-language television more often than do their male counterparts. Theoretical considerations for studying possible relationships between television viewing and Hispanic American children's psychosocial development are discussed. |
