Social Workers’ Perspectives on the Climate of Trauma-Informed and Non-Trauma-Informed Schools
This study explored school climate from the perspective of social workers, documenting their perceptions of trauma-informed culture and climate in U.S. schools. Using logistic regression, we analyzed survey data from 538 school social workers to investigate whether their experiences of school climate characteristics associated with trauma-informed approaches—physical and psychological safety; a focus on strengths and equity; and supportive relati…
Past School Discipline Experiences
BACKGROUND: School discipline has potential life-long consequences for students. Disabled youth can be misunderstood and experience harsh discipline and are at increased risk for negative outcomes, yet little research includes their voices. The aim of this study was to explore past school discipline experiences among disabled adults. METHODS: Disabled adult perspectives (N = 9) regarding past school discipline experiences were explored employing …
How school policies, strategies, and relational factors contribute to teacher victimization and school safety
In this study, we examined how school policies and strategies (i.e., positive discipline, hardening strategies, and positive behavioral strategies) affect teacher relational factors and teacher reports of victimization and safety. Specifically, we examined the mediational roles of teacher support of student learning, maltreatment of students by teachers, and teachers' differential treatment of students in schools. Using a sample of 6643 pre‐K‐12t…
School climate and resilience promoting characteristics
Few studies holistically examine how students experience the multiple dimensions of school climate and resilience promoting characteristics, or how these two constructs may be interrelated. This study utilised a sample of 78,550 7th, 9th, and 11th grade students in California. Roughly half of the participants were female (52%), and roughly half (49%) were Latino. Latent Class Analysis was used to identify a 6-profile model for school climate and …
Districts' and schools' role in identifying and providing services for homeless students
Even though homeless students are nested in schools and districts with different socioeconomic status (SES) contexts, little is known about the role of schools and districts for homeless students in these differing contexts. This comparative case study explored the identification, service provision, and school experience of homeless students in high‐ and low‐SES districts. Mixed‐methods case study methodology was used to compare two school distri…
The association of parentification indicators with substance use patterns among military-connected adolescents
Military-connected youths are a vulnerable population exposed to a unique set of stressors, which may put them at increased risk for adverse mental and behavioral health outcomes, compared to their civilian counterparts. Among military-connected adolescents, emotional and instrumental parentification are mechanisms hypothesized to account for negative outcomes, including substance use. However, parentification may be protective in some cultures a…
Positive school climate for school staff? The roles of administrators, staff beliefs, and school organization in high and low resource school districts
Despite continued calls for positive school climate, school staff members are rarely included in school climate research or theories. This qualitative case study explored how socioeconomic status (SES), school districts, leadership, and school contexts combine to create school climate. Four schools were selected from a sample of positive and negative climate schools in one high and one low-SES district. Data collection involved key informant inte…
Practice in a Pandemic
In March 2020, as American PreK-12 schools shut down and moved into online learning in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, there was little information about how school social workers (SSWs) were responding to the crisis. This study used a national online survey to understand how SSWs ( N = 1,275) adapted their school practice during the initial 2020 COVID-19 crisis. Findings from this study indicate that SSWs made swift and (relatively) sm…
Needs of Children and Families during Spring 2020 Covid-19 School Closures
Despite extensive reports during the COVID-19 pandemic of the academic challenges facing students, and the effects of online learning on academic achievements, we have little information regarding the needs and difficulties of K-12 students and their families from a social work perspective. The present article shares findings from a nationwide survey of 1,275 school social workers (SSWs) reporting on their clients-schools, children, and families-…
School Staff Members in California
Objective: Positive school climate is a protective factor for students, yet current conceptualizations of climate largely overlook the perspectives of school staff members (e.g., teachers, administrators, social workers), who are expected to take action to create a positive climate. This study explores the construction of staff-focused dimensions of school climate and associations between school climate and student outcomes. Method: Data are from…
Does High School Mobility Negatively Influence Perceptions of School Climate
Research suggests that negative experiences of school climate are associated with negative outcomes for students including school dropout, substance use, and emotional distress. However, little is known about how highly mobile students, which may include homeless youths, children in child welfare, or children from military families, experience the protective elements of school climate. Using data from 11,489 students who completed the 2013 Califo…
Adult Relationships in Multiple Contexts and Associations With Adolescent Mental Health
Purpose: Adult relationships provide critical support for adolescents because of their potential to foster positive development and provide protective influences. Few studies examine multiple ecological layers of adult relationships in connection with well-being and depression. This study examines the influence of relationships from multiple contexts for adolescents and their mental health. Method: Data from the 2011 California Healthy Kids Surve…
