Furthermore, the purpose of this study was to identify factors, which lead U.S. born and non-U.S. born Hispanics to seek and utilize mental health services. Findings suggest that there is no relationship between acculturation and the utilization of mental health services. A lack of resistance may be due to a need of education on mental health illnesses. | Keywords/Search Tags: | Mental health, Services, Relationship between acculturation | | Related items |
