Providing LGBTQ+ adolescents with nurturance, trustworthiness, and safety
LGBTQ+ (e.g., lesbian/gay, bisexual, transgender/nonbinary, queer) adolescents experience health inequities driven by minority stressors, and there are too few theory-based, community-informed interventions for improving health among LGBTQ+ adolescents. The purpose of this paper is to describe the systematic development of an online program for training high school staff to support, affirm, and protect LGBTQ+ adolescents, entitled Providing LGBTQ…

Cultural Influences on Family Mealtime Routines in Mexico
Mexico's obesity rates are alarming, and experts project drastic increases in the next thirty years. There is growing interest in understanding how remote acculturation and globalization processes influence health behaviors. The present study used focus group data from a central state, San Luis Potosí, in Mexico to explore mothers' perspectives on factors that influence family mealtime routines. Thematic analysis was used to identify barriers and…

Family-based interventions that incorporate culturally-tailored multi-component curricula and are grounded on evidence-based information and theoretical frameworks can help reduce the prevalence of obesity among Hispanic children. Abriendo Caminos : Clearing the Path to Hispanic Health is a multi-site culturally-tailored randomized control trial that aims to reduce obesity rates in Hispanic families by delivering education on nutrition, family we…
Environmental Factors Influencing Physical Activity Among Latino Families
The Effects of Hispanic Immigrant Mother’s Resiliency on Children’s Dietary Adjustment
Jailed Fathers and Family Complexity
When individuals have biological children with more than one partner (multipartner fertility [MPF]), they, on average, experience less ability to care for their children and work with coparents (compared with those with children from a single partner or fewer partners). These problems can be further exacerbated when one partner is incarcerated. Under such conditions, service agencies are particularly crucial for these families. For services to be…
Continued Barriers Affecting Hispanic Families’ Dietary Patterns
Obesity and changing dietary patterns continue to be concerning issues among Hispanic immigrant families. Using consumer acculturation theory, the researchers conducted three focus groups with 19 mothers to examine changing behaviors (postimmigration) that affect healthy eating habits. Using a priori codes and data displays, the analysis revealed that mothers: (i) realize family food consumption needs to be healthier; (ii) recognize as barriers f…
The relationship of relative child care and parenting behaviors in fragile families
Enhancing the practice of immigrant child welfare social workers in the United States
Responding to the needs of growing immigrant populations, many US social service sectors have recruited bilingual and bicultural practitioners, including immigrants. However, little is known about the immigrant social workers. This article explores the practice context of immigrant child welfare social workers in the United States. First, acculturation theory is applied to frame the experiences of US immigrants. Second, we explore professional de…
More Than Help? Volunteerism in US Latino Culture
Volunteerism makes critical contributions to individual lives and society as a whole. However, to date, few studies have investigated volunteerism within Latino communities, a large and growing US population. The aim of this study was to understand how non-metropolitan US Latinos perceive volunteerism, as well as to determine what motivates and what deters their participation in volunteer programs. Our research team conducted six focus groups wit…
Factors Correlated to Protective and Risk Dietary Patterns in Immigrant Latino Mothers in Non-metropolitan Rural Communities
Helping Dual-Earner Couples Manage Work–Partner Interferences
This study explored the effectiveness and informed further development of a brief intervention designed to teach couples strategies for managing interferences from work to their romantic relationship. A pretest/posttest design with a control group measured the impact of the intervention on married couples’ work–partner balance skills and strategies and their relationship satisfaction. Couples in the intervention group improved in areas of work–pa…
Language and Non-linguistic Brokering
Brokering, or the work immigrant youth do to help their families adapt to a new society, is a common phenomenon in immigrant families, but has only recently been explored in research studies. Most researchers focus on language brokering (translating and interpreting) rather than non-linguistic types of brokering (e.g., helping parents study for the citizenship exam), and studies have mainly involved Latino adolescents. The current study simultane…
Challenges and Strengths of Immigrant Latino Families in the Rural Midwest
This study assessed challenges and strengths reported by 112 Latin American immigrant mothers in rural Illinois communities. Respondents (mean age = 34.5 years; 93% Mexican) took part in structured interviews that covered a range of topics relevant to their families and the broader Latino community. These Latina mothers emphasized language, documentation, and economic issues as key challenges for immigrants. Some challenges decreased with time in…
Stress, Social Support, and Depression
This study examined social support as a potential moderator between stress and depressive symptoms among Mexican university applicants aged 16–21 years ( N = 6,715; M age = 17.9 years; 55% female). In bivariate analyses, perceived stress was associated with higher levels of depressive symptoms, and social support with lower levels of both stress and depression. Moderation analyses conducted using hierarchical multiple regressions indicated that g…
Associations of Acculturation with Family and Individual Well-being in Serbian Refugee Young Adults in the United States
Seventy-seven ethnic Serbian refugee young adults (mean age = 23) from Bosnia and Croatia (in the former Yugoslavia) presently living in the United States completed an online survey. Young adults reported their own and their parents' level of acculturation to both Serbian and U.S. cultures. In contrast to most prior studies, acculturation gap was operationalized taking into account the direction of youth-parent discrepancy rather than as absolute…
Is There a Difference Between Center and Home Care Providers’ Training, Perceptions, and Practices Related to Obesity Prevention
The Effect of Different Cultural Lenses on Reliability and Validity in Observational Data
This study used a mixed methodology to investigate reliability, validity, and analysis level with Chinese immigrant observational data. European‐American and Chinese coders quantitatively rated 755 minutes of Chinese immigrant parent–toddler dinner interactions on parental sensitivity, intrusiveness, detachment, negative affect, positive affect, and parents' confidence. They also gave qualitative coding rationales for their quantitative ratings. …
Good Daughters
Twenty-five Korean American queer women were interviewed in-depth about their family relationships. Field notes and a brief demographic survey were used to supplement interview data. Results indicate three different profiles of Korean American queer women: international students, 1.5 ethnic enclave residents, and 2nd generation suburbanites. Though all seek to be good daughters, their accomplishment of this goal depends upon their family ideologi…
Growing Up in the Inner City
Children growing up in the inner city are at risk for a range of negative developmental outcomes. Do barren, inner-city neighborhood spaces compromise the everyday activities and experiences necessary for healthy development? Sixty-four urban public housing outdoor spaces (27 low vegetation, 37 high vegetation) were observed on four separate occasions. Overall, inner-city children's everyday activities and access to adults appeared remarkably hea…
Green Common Spaces and the Social Integration of Inner-City Older Adults
For older adults, social integration and the strength of social ties are profoundly important predictors of well-being and longevity. Can the physical environment be designed to promote older adults' social integration with their neighbors? We examined this possibility by testing the relationships between varying amount of exposure to green outdoor common spaces and the strength of ties among neighbors. Results of interviews with 91 older adults …
Religious Affiliation as a Source of Variation in Childrearing Values and Parental Regulation of Young Children
Not all parents regulate to the same degree, and one typically examined factor, social class, does not adequately account for variation. In this study, religious ideology was explored as another source of variation in parental regulatory practices. Sixteen middle-class European-American families (8 conservative and 8 liberal) with children between 2 and 3 years of age participated in parental interviews and in-home observations. In interviews, mo…
Personal Storytelling as a Medium of Socialization in Chinese and American Families
The goal of this study was to determine how personal storytelling functions as a socializing practice within the family context in middle-class Taiwanese and middle-class European American families. The data consist of more than 200 naturally occurring stories in which the past experiences of the focal child, aged 2,6, were narrated. These stories were analyzed at 3 levels: content, function, and structure. Findings converged across these analyti…
