Interracial marriages have increased in the past few decades with about 15% of all new marriages being between spouses of a different race or ethnicity from one another (Wang, 2012). Among all newlyweds in the United States (U.S.) in 2010, 26% of Hispanics married out (Wang, 2012). Existing literature on society's attitudes towards assimilation and interracial marriage have changed since Latinos began immigrating to the U.S., resulting in positive changes in attitudes and an increase in interracial marriages (George & Yancey, 2003; Lee & Edmonston, 2005; Lee, 2008). There is a small amount of research that specifically focuses on attitudes toward interracial marriage among Latinos, and how acculturation may influence attitudes. The limited amount of research involving the Latino population does not specify the subgroups, or mostly focus on Mexican Americans, which is why this study examined attitudes among South Americans, the new wave of immigrants who have been understudied.

520 $a Interracial marriages have increased in the past few decades with about 15% of all new marriages being between spouses of a different race or ethnicity from one another (Wang, 2012). Among all newlyweds in the United States (U.S.) in 2010, 26% of Hispanics married out (Wang, 2012). Existing literature on society's attitudes towards assimilation and interracial marriage have changed since Latinos began immigrating to the U.S., resulting in positive changes in attitudes and an increase in interracial marriages (George & Yancey, 2003; Lee & Edmonston, 2005; Lee, 2008). There is a small amount of research that specifically focuses on attitudes toward interracial marriage among Latinos, and how acculturation may influence attitudes. The limited amount of research involving the Latino population does not specify the subgroups, or mostly focus on Mexican Americans, which is why this study examined attitudes among South Americans, the new wave of immigrants who have been understudied.
520 $a The present study focused on providing an understanding on the influence of acculturation on attitudes toward interracial marriage among individuals who identified as Colombian, Ecuadorian, and Peruvian, due to having the highest rate of immigration to the United States (U.S. Census, 2010) among South American countries. Educational level, age, and generational status were also examined to determine their effects on attitudes. The final sample included 130 participants who voluntarily responded to anonymous online questionnaires. All participants completed a Demographic Questionnaire, the Short Acculturation Scale for Hispanics (SASH), and the Attitudes toward Interracial Dating Scale (ATIDS), and three-open ended narrative questions.
520 $a Quantitative Results from this study showed that there was a significant interaction between generational status and attitudes toward interracial marriage. Education level and age were not correlated with attitudes toward interracial marriage, and the SASH and ATIDS were weakly correlated. Qualitative results displayed that majority of participants held positive attitudes toward interracial marriage. Participant responses revealed overarching themes of: love; values and beliefs; family; personal experience; exposure; and culture and identity, as contributors to attitudes toward interracial marriage. The overall results in this study, displayed support of interracial marriage among the South American population, specifically from Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru.
