Social justice curriculum development continues to be an evolving area in the educational and professional training of counselors and counseling psychologists.

The impact of racial identity and school composition on affirmative action attitudes of African American college students
Affirmative Action remains a controversial policy that incites a variety of reactions. Some believe it's an unjust policy that discriminates against applicants, while others view it as a policy aimed at fighting against past inequalities and discrimination. Little is known about African American endorsement of the policy. Two hundred and seven Black students from a predominantly White institution (PWI) and a historically Black university (HBCU) p…

The Index of Race-Related Stress-Brief: Further Validation, Cross-Validation, and Item Response Theory-Based Evidence
The Index of Race-Related Stress-Brief (IRRS-B) is one of the most widely used measures to assess race-related stress among Black Americans. Despite a long history of use in research and clinical settings, there has been limited scholarship examining the factor structure of the IRRS-B. In this study, we evaluated the item functioning and structural performance of the IRRS-B scores in a nationally recruited sample of Black Americans using item res…

Using a qualitative approach, the authors investigated the perceptions of how Black Studies courses shaped the psychosocial experiences and identity development of Black students (N = 24) at a predominantly White institution. Data from semistructured focus gro…

In the United States, Black Americans’ counseling experiences are associated with concerns that are unique to their racialized status. Understanding the range of cultural factors that influence Black Americans’ preferences in the context of counseling remains an important topic in marketing and providing high-quality counseling services to this population. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine the role of racial centrality, affirming soc…
A Conceptual Framework for Utilizing Black History Knowledge as a Path to Psychological Liberation for Black Youth
Several scholars suggest that Black history knowledge (BHK) is a significant psychological strength that facilitates mental health for Black people, and Black youth in particular, as they face racial injustice and adversity. Yet no framework has been presented in the psychological literature to advance scholarship regarding the significance of BHK. While other constructs (e.g., racial identity and racial socialization) importantly highlight the s…
Beauty and Body Image Concerns Among African American College Women
The current study examined body image concerns among African American women. In recent years, there has been an attempt to include ethnic minority samples in body image studies, but few specifically examine unique issues pertaining to beauty and body image for African American college-age women. A total of 31 African American women participated in one of five focus groups on the campus of a large Southwestern University to examine beauty and body…

The moderating role of gender in the relationship between religiosity and mental health in a sample of black American college students
In the current study gender was tested as a moderator of the relationship between religiosity and mental health among 218 black American college students. It was hypothesised that black women would be higher in religious engagement than black men, and that gender would moderate the relationship between religiosity and mental health. Contrary to hypotheses, no significant gender differences in religious engagement were found. However, moderated mu…
