abstract="The literature on adolescent fathers largely ignores hispanic Americans. Studies of adolescent fathers, most often involving black males, suggest directions for research among hispanic males. In this paper, we review the small literature on adolescent fathers relative to several nonexclusive dimensions. These dimensions are adolescent fathers' needs and problems; relationships to the adolescent mothers; social supports and help seeking behavior; and attitudes toward fatherhood and contraception, perception of locus of control, and academic achievement. Using the existing empirical literature and integrating knowledge of the hispanic culture and community, a future research agenda on hispanic adolescent fathers is outlined.<p />",
