A typology of caregiver burden for custodial Black grandmothers
Previous studies of custodial grandparenting tend to aggregate population data or not distinguish custodial grandparenting experiences by race, even though research demonstrates that custodial grandparenting for Black grandmothers is compounded by intersectional disadvantages. Our aim is to contribute to the gerontologic health literature with a nuanced understanding of caregiver burden that captures the strains and joys of custodial grandparenti…
Workplace discrimination and older Black women's mental health
Drawing attention to the complex and multidimensional lives of older Black women, this study examines the extent to which workplace discrimination influences their mental health (i.e., depression and anxiety symptoms). Moreover, we assess whether various sources of social support mitigate or whether relational strains and work–family conflict exacerbate the influence of workplace discrimination on mental health. We draw data from the 2010 and 201…
Understanding sense of belonging of faculty and staff in higher education
Purpose Studies and programming on belonging in higher education tend to focus on college students’ sense of belonging, but the experiences of faculty and staff are equally important. Minoritized faculty and staff disproportionately report lower levels of sense of belonging and experience greater turnover outcomes. A sense of belonging among faculty and staff lessens their intention to quit, facilitates research collaboration and increases organi…
The Impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic on Black and Hispanic Americans’ Work Outcomes
Relieving the Burden of Self-Reliance
Research to explore the experiences of Black women graduate students in colleges and universities is limited despite the increased focus and prioritization of diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, particularly at Predominantly White Institutions. This is problematic as Black women have the highest increases of graduate school attainment rates in the United States of all gender and racial/gender groups; yet, these settings are not equipped to …

Race-Ethnic Differences in the Effects of Covid-19 on the Work, Stress, and Financial Outcomes of Older Adults
Understanding how the experiences of managing and coping with COVID-19 stressors differ by race-ethnicity can better inform intervention design and support services
Social Processes Associated With Health and Health Behaviors Linked to Early Mortality in People With a Diagnosis of a Serious Mental Illness
Individuals with serious mental illness (SMI) experience a 10- to 25-year reduced life expectancy compared with the general population. Early mortality for people with SMI has mainly been attributed to unhealthy behaviors (e.g., poor diet, sedentary lifestyle), which has led to the development of health promotion and self-management interventions specifically for people with SMI to promote health behavior change. Yet after decades of research, th…
Definition and operationalization of resilience in qualitative health literature
Resilience is a burgeoning focus in health research; yet, researchers have varying conceptual and methodological approaches to understanding resilience across populations. Consequently, there is little consensus on the definition or operationalization of resilience. The objective of the present study was to conduct a scoping review of qualitative health research from the United States to connect methodological approaches with operationalization a…
The Intersecting Consequences of Race-Gender Health Disparities on Workforce Engagement for Older Workers
The dramatic growth of older adults' labor participation over the past 25 years, including women and people of color, is reshaping the American labor force. The current study contributes new knowledge concerning why individuals over age 50 years may be working longer despite negative impacts of deteriorating physical and mental health associated with aging. Inquiries regarding who continues to work and why can be answered, in part, by addressing …
Financial Hardship and Psychological Resilience During Covid-19
The results suggest that PR is a relatively stable resource in later life, even during the pandemic. However, this resource may be affected in the face of specific challenges in later life. Policies related to financial hardship during the pandemic should be seen as supporting the capacity for older adults to adapt to current as well as future challenges
A Brief Report on Older Working Caregivers
Our findings provide insights into the types of environments that caregivers work in, and the characteristics of individuals in those environments. We discuss implications of our findings for future research and work-based policy development
Addressing the Needs of African American Grandparents
This study seeks to demonstrate the intersecting structural and compounding challenges African American custodial grandparents experience collectively, rather than as separate non-competing factors, which has been modeled in prior studies. Using a mixed-method research design, the study explored the challenges faced by African American and white custodial grandparents. These challenges included difficulties attaining different types of support, r…
Victim-Blaming in Disguise? Supervisors' Accounts of Problems in Healthcare Delivery
Interrogating Ourselves in a Racialized World
In this article we suggest strategies for teachers who do not teach race and ethnicity courses on how to create learning opportunities for students to analyze their social environments and interrogate how their beliefs, feelings, and actions concerning race and racism are shaped by their social worlds. We propose a pedagogical approach that examines and welcomes students' personal experiences in the classroom as one of the most powerful tools for…
You Have to Absorb Yourself in It”
Inspired by inquiry-guided learning and critical self-reflection as pedagogical approaches, we describe exercises that encourage students to develop critical thinking skills through inquiry and reflective writing. Students compile questions and reflections throughout the course and, at the end of the term, use their writings for a comprehensive analytic self-reflection that examines their intellectual and sociological growth. Following Schwalbe’s…
