This study investigated, within the Hispanic community, the impact of daughter-mother communication and father-involvement on the daughter’s perceived willingness to engage in risky behaviour.  A purposive sample of 134 Hispanic females completed four self-report scales:  Perceived Father Involvement Scale and the Risky Behaviour Scale.  Results indicate an inverse relationship exists between daughter-mother openness and daughter’s risky behaviour.  Further, a significant relationship between perceived father-involvement and daughter’s risky behaviour was also found.
