Poster Presentation

Abstract

Researchers have begun to research White culture and parent socialization; however, there are no scales to measure White Racial Socialization (WRS). Hypotheses are: WRS does exist and it can be measured. Factor analysis of 532 participant responses to the 127-item Scale of White Racial Socialization revealed a five factor structure.
