Popis:	The present study used focus group interviews to examine beliefs and social norms regarding female and relationship devaluation among a sample of economically challenged male African American and Latino American youth (N = 57; aged 15–17 years). Most Latino boys felt women are devalued in relationships because Latina women like to be physically or verbally abused. Among African American male participants, some felt women are devalued because African American women are not trustworthy. However, most African American male participants felt the important women in their lives were devalued by men in relationships because of the women's verbal abuse of their partners. These findings are important in the development of culturally and linguistically appropriate female valuation campaigns and interventions for African and Latino adolescents.
