Summary:Chronological age as the central criterion in the denition of generational dierences in womens beliefs about traditional female roles has been questioned on the basis of the disappearance of said dierences as a result of the shared bicultural experience of immigrant Colombian mothers and daughters living in the United States. This study explores the degree to which these results may be generalized to other Hispanics in the US, by comparing a sample of Ecuadorian women living in Riobamba, Ecuador, to a sample of Ecuadorian women living in New Jersey, USA (50 mother-daughter pairs in each sample). Results of post hoc comparisons conrm equivalency to those previously reported in Colombian women, in the sense that mother-daughter differences disappear in those women residing in the USA but not in those residing in Ecuador.
