This study examines the similarities and differences in communication styles between rural Latina and Non-Latina Caucasian women and their male partners. Power and control, division of family labor, and acculturation were the issues of conflict among Latinas. Caucasians reported feeling strain due to work/family interactions and responsibility for family labor. Latinas and Caucasians used avoidance, demand/withdraw, and aggressive communication styles. The proactive communication pattern was used much more frequently among Caucasians. Latinas and Caucasians reported: modeling positive communication and following religious beliefs as conflict resolution strategies. Exerting personal power and independence was prevalent among Latinas. Caucasians noted that learning as a couple, through time, helped them resolve conflict.
