Baby-Act Intervention to Prevent Excessive Infant Weight Gain
Does the Association Between Educational Attainment and Cognition Differ Between Indigenous Language Speakers and Non-Indigenous Language Speakers in Mexico
ObjectivesIndigenous populations in Mexico, comprising roughly one-fifth of the population, face significant unique cognitive health challenges in older adulthood. This study examines cognitive performance differences between Indigenous and non-Indigenous language speakers and evaluates whether the cognitive benefits of educational attainment differs between these populations.MethodsWe analyzed the 2018 Mexican Health and Aging Study (MHAS, n = 1…
Pronóstico postpandemia del turismo receptivo vía aérea mediante la utilización de modelos bayesianos. El caso de Colombia
This article makes a medium-long term forecast (2023-2030) of the inflow of foreign tourists to a country by air, using Colombia as a case study. First, we analyse how the development and application of State policies in tourism managed to boost tourism, with an emphasis on inbound tourism, over the three decades previous to the year 2019 (prior to the pandemic period). To achieve this objective, we applied a Bayesian Structural Time Series (BSTS…
Gendered Marital Power, Depression, and Cognition Among Older Adults in Mexico
Objectives As Mexico rapidly ages, population-level cognitive issues and Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementia are projected to increase. Limited social welfare positions family members—especially spouses—as the main support resource. Although past research suggests marital power imbalances relate with increased depression among Mexican older adults, how marital power imbalance relates with cognition and gender differences therein remains unde…

An intersectional and social determinants of health framework for understanding Latinx psychological distress in 2020
Interracial unions and sleep duration among heterosexual American adults
For Americans in romantic unions, sleep occurs in the context of couple relationships. Romantic partners influence one another's circadian rhythms, share beds, buffer or cause stress, and share resources that can be used to improve sleep. Moreover, sleep among individuals in interracial relationships may be negatively impacted by the social construction of race/ethnicity that drive health disparities and that point to the importance of factors su…
Racial/Ethnic Residential Segregation and the First Wave of Sars-CoV-2 Infection Rates
Previous research has linked racial/ethnic residential segregation to a number of poor health conditions, including infectious disease. Here, we examine how racial/ethnic residential segregation is related to the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. We examine infection rates by zip code level segregation in four major cities across the U.S.: New York City, Chicago, Houston, and San Diego. We also include a number of area-level Census variables in orde…
Factor Structure of the Self-Compassion Scale in 11 International Samples
In this study, different factor analysis models were employed to test the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) in 11 distinct populations (n = 15,266) in different countries. The results strongly suggest that the most appropriate use of the SCS is to measure levels of Self-Compassionate responding (positive items) and Self-Uncompassionate responding (negative items) separately
Compassion for Others and Self-Compassion
Compassion for others and self-compassion are assumed to be closely related concepts. Yet, as they have been mostly studied separately, little is known about their relationship and to what extent they differ or resemble each other with respect to their correlates. This cross-sectional study aimed to gain knowledge on their mean levels, interrelationship, and relationships to psychological well-being and demographic factors. A community sample of …
Noticing Learners’ Strengths Through Cultural Research
Cultural research can help to identify strengths of cultural communities that are often viewed through a deficit model. Strengths-based approaches open researchers, practitioners, and the public to seeing the logic and value of cultural practices that vary from mainstream approaches. Strengths-based approaches include and extend beyond concerns for social equity: They are necessary for scientific characterization of human cognitive and social pro…
A Reconsideration of the Self-Compassion Scale’s Total Score
The Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) is currently the only self-report instrument to measure self-compassion. The SCS is widely used despite the limited evidence for the scale's psychometric properties, with validation studies commonly performed in college students. The current study examined the factor structure, reliability, and construct validity of the SCS in a large representative sample from the community. The study was conducted in 1,736 person…
Using History to Analyze the Learning by Observing and Pitching In Practices of Contemporary Mesoamerican Societies
Children's Avoidance of Interrupting Others’ Activities in Requesting Help
Learning by Observing and Pitching In
To conclude this special issue of Human Development on Learning by Observing and Pitching In to family and community endeavors (LOPI), we argue that everyone can benefit from learning to do things in more than one way, expanding our repertoires of practice. We examine potential developmental benefits for children's collaborative initiative, alertness, and skills in perspective-taking, self-regulation, and planning, in addition to acquiring partic…
Assessing Attitudes Toward Wildlife Ownership in United States–Mexico Borderlands
Public attitudes toward wildlife ownership represent an important and poorly studied component of biodiversity conservation. We began addressing this knowledge gap by interviewing residents along 140 km of the United States side of the farthest southeastern border with Mexico (n = 402). After controlling for demographic variables, urban background (β = 0.13) and land ownership (β = −0.19) predicted attitudes regarding wildlife ownership (p < .05)…
Views of Private-Land Stewardship among Latinos on the Texas–Tamaulipas Border
Successful conservation efforts require understanding predictors of private-land stewardship (PLS), its definitions, and what people feel they owe stewardship responsibility to. Various strands of research have touched on the concept, but there is little research focusing on how it is communicated and enacted among the lay public, especially among Latinos. We used a case study in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas to address this gap by identif…
Attention to instruction directed to another by U.S. Mexican-heritage children of varying cultural backgrounds
Children commonly observe and pitch in to ongoing activities in Indigenous communities of Mexico, according to ethnographic research. The present study examines the generality of this approach to learning by comparing its use among Mexican immigrants of two cultural backgrounds in the United States. Results showed more sustained attention to (and learning from) instruction directed to another person by 22 U.S. Mexican-heritage 6- to 11-year-old c…
Developing Effective P-20 Partnerships to Benefit Chicano/Latino Students and Families
To consider how interdisciplinary P-20 partnerships increase college-going rates among Chicano/Latino youth, the authors highlight evidence from the Educational Partnership Center (EPC) at the University of California, Santa Cruz, a P-20 partnership that builds academic achievement and college and career pathways. Three elements advance EPC effectiveness: collaborative governance structures sustaining shared vision, mission, and goals; innovating…
Ocelot Awareness among Latinos on the Texas and Tamaulipas Border
Knowledge about wildlife represents a critical component of conservation. Although several variables (e.g., gender, education, length of residency) predict components of wildlife knowledge, previous research on the topic has rarely included multivariate analysis and has not focused on Latinos, the largest ethnic minority in the United States. We addressed this gap with a survey assessing the ability of residents on the Texas–Tamaulipas border to …
