Additional information

This study is based on a doctoral dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the PhD-degree at the University of Arizona, submitted by the first author, under the direction of the second author.

The CRAM has now been renamed the Chicano Ethnic Attitude Measure (CEAM) to more accurately reflect the cultural/ethnic composition and uniqueness of this population as opposed to racial differentation.
