Latina undergraduate commuters’ academic persistence decisions
Initial validation of the Multidimensional Educational Ganas Scale
Culturally responsive mentoring
A Psychosociocultural Perspective in the Nuevo Sur
With a growing number of Latine students in higher education, we investigated the support and protection mechanisms in place for first-generation Latine/Hispanic college students at large-land grant institutions in the Southeastern region. We used the Psychosociocultural (PSC) framework (Gloria and Rodriguez, 2000) to examine how Latine student experiences are supported at their university in the Nuevo Sur. Specifically, we attend to the differen…
Imposter Syndrome’s Impact on Latine College Students During Transformative Times
Mi mamá es una mujer poderosa y inspiradora
Para honrar los sacrificios de mi familia
A total of 174 Latinx undergraduates attending a predominantly White institution provided online responses regarding motivating persons, processes, and factors that helped them persist in college. Using a multi-step, content-based qualitative approach, there were three meta-themes (i.e. family, friends and peers, and self) with 15 themes developed from 350 response items. Using a psychosociocultural lens to guide our work and organize the data, w…
Anchoring comunidad
Using a phenomenological approach, we interviewed 16 Latinx college students pursuing STEM degrees at four Northeastern universities to explore the forms of capital that first- and continuing-generation Latinx students use as they enter and navigate postsecondary STEM pathways. Findings suggest that both first- and continuing-generation Latinx students in STEM entered college with community cultural wealth (CCW). Unlike their first-generation pee…
Pertenecemos y tenemos importancia aquí! Exploring Sense of Belonging and Mattering for First-Generation and Continuing-Generation Latinx Undergraduates
Using a psychosociocultural approach, we examined the role of motivation, belonging, and congruity relative to sense of mattering for 236 Latinx undergraduates attending a public Midwest research university. Findings revealed the key role of belonging in understanding undergraduates’ experiences where belonging accounted for more than half of the variance of mattering as well as mediated the relationship of congruity and mattering. Differences by…
Latin@ undergraduates’ willingness to seek and attitudes towards counseling
We explored the differences between and relationships of gender, class, college generation, and previous counseling experience for cultural orientation, cultural fit, willingness to seek and attitudes towards counseling for 112 Latin@ undergraduates. Ethnic identity played a key role as differences by college generation emerged where first-generation college students reported higher levels of ethnic identity as well as a stronger relationship of …
