Structural violence and the mental health of asylum-seeking minors
Worldwide rates of asylum seeking are at a historic high. Globally, there are over 122 million displaced individuals, with youth under 18 comprising approximately 40% of this population. The United States is one of the largest receiving countries for asylum seekers including unaccompanied minors and families seeking asylum. Minors seeking asylum have heightened vulnerability to the adverse effects of structural and subsequent interpersonal violen…
Support systems impacting the mental health of diverse women in biomedical science programs
Biomedical doctoral trainees experience high rates of mental health distress compared to the general population. Minoritized students are particularly vulnerable to psychological stress during training due to systemic factors including discrimination, bullying, financial constraints, high workloads and constant critical feedback. As such, the mental health of minoritized biomedical trainees is both a social justice and health equity issue. We exa…
The role of institutional natural mentors in first‐generation college students' social belonging and academic outcomes
One source of support that may help first‐generation college students (FGCS) complete their undergraduate studies is institutional natural mentors (e.g., university faculty, staff). Yet, few researchers have examined factors that contribute to having these relationships, and their relationship to college adjustment, among FGCS. The aim of this study was to examine whether FGCS' help‐seeking behaviors predicted the presence of institutional natura…
The sense that we're invisible
A longstanding and significant disparity in representation across gender, economic status, ethnicity, race, and sexual identity exists within STEM doctoral training. Most of the research on the retention and attrition of minoritized PhD STEM students focuses on individual factors, rather than system level issues. To address these gaps, we qualitatively examined longitudinal experiences of 33 Asian American, Black, and Latiné female biomedical PhD…
Parenting, Cultural Capital, and Covid-19
Caregivers and families play a pivotal role in students’ college decision-making and ability to develop cultural capital (Carey, 2016). Although the deleterious effects of the COVID-19 pandemic required shifts and adjustments to parenting strategies, it is less clear how COVID-19 impacted parental support for emerging adults, particularly Latiné first-generation college students (FGCS). The current study used a qualitative, longitudinal method to…
Emotional Distress and Access to Mental Healthcare Among First-Generation College Students During the Onset of the Covid-19 Pandemic
The shift to remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic presented significant mental health challenges for college students, particularly for students with minoritized identities. The current study used quantitative and qualitative methods to examine how psychological distress and barriers to mental healthcare shifted for first-generation college students (FGCS) as the pandemic affected campuses in Spring 2020. FGCS across three college setting…
The structural violence of Daca and youth resistance
Narratives demonstrate the ways in which young people experience structural violence despite the benefits of DACA and how some resist this violence. Implications for a legislative pathway to citizenship are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)
Everyday Acts of Resistance
Study aims were to examine oppression in education among Mexican immigrant youth with undocumented status and how mentors and other adults helped them resist oppression. Qualitative, narrative one-on-one interviews were conducted with 17 Mexican immigrant young adults with undocumented or DACA status in the U.S. Participants provided retrospective accounts from childhood through older adolescence. Analyses revealed critical junctures in which par…
Historically underrepresented college students and institutional natural mentors
Despite studies examining outcomes associated with having a natural mentoring relationship with an institutional agent in a higher education setting, few studies have investigated the formation of these relationships among historically underrepresented college students. Institutional agents refer to any instructor, staff, or administrator on the college campus. This cross‐sectional study used an ecological approach to explore the factors associat…
Navigating between two the worlds of school and ‘being on the land’
This qualitative study examines two contexts shaping circumpolar Indigenous young people's contemporary lives. In Arctic North America, the recent, rapid experiences of colonization are linked to disproportionately high rates of youth suicide. It is important to understand how different contexts, central to identity narratives, enhance or challenge resilience: the negotiated capacity to overcome hardship. We examine two settings: school and the l…
Making it to the finish line
Dominican-born children of Haitian descent are frequently excluded from the public education system in the Dominican Republic. Barriers to participation include poverty, discriminatory government policies, and structural barriers within school settings. Females of Haitian descent face additional barriers due to gender discrimination. The current study used modified grounded theory to analyze qualitative interviews from 32 Dominican females of Hai…
Traveling a Hard Road
This article examines the rites of passage for poor girls of Haitian descent living in the Dominican Republic. In the Dominican context, preparation for and the transition to wife and mother historically served as an important rite of passage to an adult identity. Industrialization and the global discourse surrounding young motherhood increasingly challenges this culturally sanctioned practice. No research has examined how perceptions around rite…
Exploring the soft side of success
Adult education centres provide a final opportunity for adult learners who have transitioned out of mainstream schools to earn a high school degree. These centers overwhelmingly serve low-income, African-American and Latinx students whose needs were not met by traditional schools. Adult Education Centers are underfunded, under-resourced and challenged with high attrition rates. Little is known about factors that promote adult education persistenc…
Fostering Well‐being through Social Support
Women of Haitian descent living in the Dominican Republic experience oppression due to their gender, ethnicity, and economic status. They also exhibit high rates of participation in evangelical Christian communities, a paradoxical finding given the restricted roles women have traditionally played in these settings. The goals of this study were to explore the perceived benefits of participation in evangelical communities and the setting characteri…
Tell it to Me Straight
Community‐based Participatory Research ( CBPR ), where consumers participate in the design and execution of an evaluation, holds promise for increasing the validity and usefulness of evaluations of services. However, there is no literature comparing methods and outcomes of studies conducted by professional evaluators with those conducted through a consumer‐driven evaluation process. We attempt to fill this gap by presenting the methods and result…
The important (but neglected) developmental value of roles
Developmental theory historically viewed demanding roles (at home, job) as important developmental contexts. However, adolescents' participation in these roles has fallen. This qualitative research examined role experiences in United States youth development programs. A central question among others was, "How can youth experience internal motivation fulfilling externally imposed role obligations?" We interviewed 73 youth with substantive work rol…
How Adolescents Develop Responsibility
This theory‐building qualitative study examined how youth develop responsibility within the context of organized youth programs. Interviews were conducted with ethnically diverse youth, parents, and adult leaders from four programs for high school–aged teens. Analysis suggested that youth develop responsibility through a four‐step cycle: (1) voluntarily taking on roles and obligations, (2) experiencing challenge and strain, (3) being motivated to…
Tunngajuq
As part of a cross-national collaborative study of resilience among circumpolar youth, we examined the life experiences, stressors, and coping or resilience strategies of Inuit youth in the community of Igloolik, Nunavut, Canada. An Inuit steering committee was formed with youth, adults, and one elder. The steering committee led this project in the community, informing community members of progress and helping direct all aspects of the study from…
The Meaning of Motherhood
This article looks at how a group of marginalized young women, in the Dominican Republic, understand the experience of becoming a mother at an early age. The dominant global discourse on adolescent motherhood problematizes the phenomenon. Methodologically flawed scholarship typically attributes adolescent motherhood to poor economic and education outcomes. Little research exists examining the voices of young mothers themselves. The author aims to…
