"Purpose: Delinquency in the United States continues to increase for adolescents between the ages of 11 and 17 years old. Ethnic minority groups, specifically those who have come from immigrant families, have shown some of the most dramatic increases in delinquency. Many researchers are directing attention to and examining the effects of acculturation and immigration on migrant families, especially Hispanic families. However, the process is not well understood for other populations. This study examines the effects of acculturation on adolescents\u2019 delinquent behavior for Haitian families. Method: The data derived from a group of 93 Haitian families with children between the ages of 11 and 17, residing in Miami-Dade County, Florida. Correlational analyses were used to examine the strength and direction of the relationship of parents\u2019 level of acculturation with parental perceptions of their adolescent\u2019s delinquency and the adolescents\u2019 self-reported delinquent behaviors. Major Findings: Pearson\u2019s product coefficient (r) was conducted at the alpha level of to determine whether the relationships were significant. The results indicated that there was no significant relationship between acculturation and parents\u2019 perceptions of delinquency, nor was there a relationship between acculturation and an adolescent\u2019s self-reported delinquency. It was hypothesized that when parents do not understand the host culture and do not understand how to operate in the host culture\u2019s complex systems (e.g., school system), their adolescents tend to display inappropriate behavior. Parents may not correct the inappropriate behavior because they may not be fully aware of the social norms that determine what is acceptable and what is not in the new society. Further analyses revealed that adolescents\u2019 self-reported delinquency was higher than the parents\u2019 perceptions of the delinquency for the families that were less acculturated. Thus, the families that were acculturated or considered bicultural answered very similarly to their adolescents on the self-report instrument. Clinical ramifications for the findings and future research questions are also discussed."
