Exploring the dimensionality of the CLASS Pre-K in Latine preschool classrooms: Further support for a bifactor model
Introduction The Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS) is a classroom observational tool commonly used to evaluate both structural and process elements of a classroom. Despite its widespread use, over the last decade, debates about its factor structure across various cultural contexts or settings have arisen. In this study, we asked the question, does the CLASS Pre-K retain its established three-domain structure when applied to classrooms w…
Quien Me Ayuda? Rural Latinx Mother’s Involvement in Children’s Schooling During Covid-19 Remote Schooling
The sustainability of content enriched shared book reading vocabulary practices and preschool emergent bilinguals
This study was part of a larger three-year investigation of the effectiveness of a small-group, content-focused (science, social studies) preschool shared book reading vocabulary intervention implemented with Spanish-speaking emergent bilinguals enrolled in a one-way dual-language bilingual program. A subset of bilingual preschool teachers (N = 23), representing treatment teachers from each of the three intervention years, was observed to underst…

Personal and Contextual Variables Predicting College Aspirations Among Latinx High School Students
This study used path analysis to examine personal and contextual variables that hinder or foster college aspirations in Latinx high school students in the framework of social cognitive career theory (Lent et al., 1994). A total of 247 Latinx high school students from an urban high school in Southern California completed a survey that measured self-efficacy, outcome expectations, supports, and barriers to college aspirations. The findings indicate…
Remote Schooling During the Covid-19 Pandemic: Rural Latino Caregiver Perspectives and Experiences
The COVID-19 pandemic forced more than 50 million students and their families to adapt to remote schooling. Most disrupted were communities of color, who faced multiple and overlapping inequalities in digital and equipment access, exposing and exacerbating existing disparities. Conducted in a small rural school district, this study surveyed the experiences of rural Spanish-speaking Latino caregivers. A total of 104 caregivers responded to a surve…
The Effects of a Science and Social Studies Content Rich Shared Reading Intervention on the Vocabulary Learning of Preschool Dual Language Learners
Comparing Three Overnight Summer Camp Experiences for Marginalized Middle School Students: Negative, Neutral, and Positive Results
Background: Summer camps can promote positive youth development. Unfortunately, racial, ethnic, and economic disparities contribute to inequities in camp participation and related research on marginalized youth. Consequently, it is not clear what types of camping programs work best for marginalized youth. Purpose: To conduct a quasi-experimental comparison of three summer camps described as experiential education camp (EEC), recreational camp (RC…
The Social Validity of Content Enriched Shared Book Reading Vocabulary Instruction and Preschool DLLs’ Language Outcomes
Research Findings: A social validity measure was used to examine 56 bilingual preschool teachers’ perceptions and acceptability of an interactive shared book reading vocabulary intervention implemented in English with Spanish-speaking preschool children (N = 334) in a dual language program model. Social validity outcomes indicated that bilingual teachers believed the shared book reading vocabulary approach was effective and could be feasibly mana…

Measuring Canonicity: Graduate Reading Lists in Departments of Hispanic Studies
This article discusses methods to determine canonical changes in graduate reading lists using a quantitative approach. Using diversity indexes common in ecology as well as simple data exploration and distance measure techniques to study levels of canonical dominance and gender equality, we compare over 90 samples from Hispanic Studies programs in the U.S. We use these indexes to study how some of these lists have changed over time and their succe…
Paraprofessionals use of group school‐based instrumental mentoring: Examining process and preliminary outcomes
Many schools use paraprofessionals to implement and monitor interventions. Though paraprofessionals are cost‐effective, many questions remain about the training and skills they need to implement a wide array of school‐based interventions. In this study, we compare paraprofessionals' (i.e., undergraduates) implementation of the Group‐Academic Mentoring Program for Education Development (Group‐AMPED) to school psychology graduate students' implemen…

Latina/o high school students’ perceptions and experiences obtaining information about going to college: A qualitative study for understanding
A qualitative study with Latina/o high school students was conducted to understand their experiences obtaining information about going to college. The following themes emerged: students encountered difficulty meeting with the counselors and obtaining information; students had little idea of where to start looking for information about going to college; and little idea about the world of work. Implications for research and practice are presented t…
The Influence of Self-Efficacy Beliefs in the Academic Performance of Latina/o Students in the United States: A Systematic Literature Review
This review had three aims: (a) examine the relationship between self-efficacy (SE) and academic performance (AP) in Latina/o students, (b) identify the types of measures of SE and AP that have been used, and (c) identify the differences between global and specific measures of SE in predicting academic performance in Latina/o students. Twenty-seven articles were included in the analysis. Major findings included the following: (a) significant and …
Climate change impacts on peak building cooling energy demand in a coastal megacity
Buildings and the atmosphere are intrinsically connected via cooling and heating systems. Global climate is projected to grow warmer, with an increasing fraction of the population living in urban centers. This introduces the challenge for new approaches to project future energy demand changes in cities. In New York City (NYC), the focus of our study, while air conditioning only accounts for 9% of all building energy end use, it is the main driver…
Impact of heatwave on a megacity: An observational analysis of New York City during July 2016
More than half of the world's current population resides in urban areas, and cities account for roughly three-quarters of the total greenhouse gas emissions. Current and future trends in urbanization will have significant impacts on global climate. However, our collective understanding of the climate of urban areas remains deficient, which is mainly related to significant knowledge gaps in observations. The New York City Summer Heat Campaign was …

Data from a focus group of nine Latina parents, specifically mothers from a South Texas border region known as the Rio Grande Valley, were analyzed using a qualitative methodology. Grounded in the theory of social capital, the purpose of the study was to understand the perceptions and experiences of Latina parents related to accessing information and resources to aid their students in enrolling in postsecondary institutions. The study was an expl…
Care transitions among Latino diabetics: Barriers to study enrollment and transition care
Inner city, monolingual Latinos may be difficult to enroll and engage in home-based interventions. Although not representative of all Latino populations, barriers encountered highlight the need for targeted research to improve transitional care among Latinos. Researchers and clinicians should take into consideration the unique barriers that Latinos face in participating in research and intervention studies
