Perceptions of a Youth-Serving Training Program
Subjective Well-Being, Critical Race Theory, and the Assessment of Measurement Invariance Across Racial Groups
The present study explores how Black and White youth respond to measures of subjective well-being within the context of critical race theory (CRT). Three levels of measurement invariance (i.e., configural, metric and scalar) were examined for indicators of subjective well-being. We hypothesized that there would be limited measurement invariance across groups based on the premise established by CRT that youth of color experience and perceive life …
Home and School Environmental Influences on Adolescents’ Sociopolitical Group Participation
The potential benefits associated with sociopolitical group involvement for participating youth have been well documented in the existing literature. Yet, little is known about what motivates voluntary participation in such programs among youth. The purpose of this study is to explore what environmental factors influence youth civic engagement through participation in sociopolitical groups (e.g., service-learning or community service programs). T…
The Effects of Father Figure Involvement on Educational Outcomes in Black Adolescents
This study aims to extend the existing literature by examining the influence of father figures on educational success in Black adolescents. It was hypothesized that adolescents who live with a biological or nonbiological father figure, have a positive relationship, and communicate with them regularly will have more favorable educational outcomes in the form of higher grades, fewer school suspensions, and more positive beliefs about postsecondary …
Observing Black youth sociopolitical group participation and high school democratic climate through the lens of critical race theory
The purpose of this paper was to determine if high school democratic climates influence Black youth participation in sociopolitical groups using critical race theory as a lens. It was hypothesized that Black youth would be less likely to participate in sociopolitical groups due to perceived lack of support. It was also hypothesized that Black and White youth participation in sociopolitical groups is more comparable when the climate at their schoo…
Understanding communication and coordination among government and service organisations after a disaster
The purpose of this study is to discover how coordination and communication between the government and service organisations responsible for the relief effort following Hurricane Katrina contributed to the poor outcomes for the communities impacted by the storm. Two hypotheses were tested in this study: communication was positively correlated with the degree of coordination immediately following Katrina; and miscommunication was negatively correl…
