Abstract
Ecological and acculturation frameworks are especially central to understanding the experiences of immigrant populations and to date, current research has yielded new conceptual and methodological tools for documenting the cultural and developmental processes of children and their families. This special issue of 12 articles focuses on immigrant families and the importance of gender along various dimensions: parental roles, parent-child relationships, child outcomes. The collection of articles also represents various innovative methodologies used, including quantitative and qualitative approaches.
