Through thematic analysis of focus group and interview data from 72 educators in the United States, this qualitative study generated a multi-layered framework that highli…
Taking a critical participatory action approach to education measurement development
This study examines how critical participatory action research (cPAR) can advance education measurement development by positioning Black and Latino students and their teachers as co-researchers. As part of the Adapted Measure of Math Engagement (AM-ME) Project, a three-year partnership with a school district in the Midwestern region of the U.S., students, teachers, and academic researchers collaboratively defined math engagement, co-created surve…
Developmental Relationships as a critical lever for equitable math learning
Strength-based strategies and assets that Black and Latina/o middle and high school students use to navigate contextual barriers of math engagement
Background Racial disparities in math remain a critical issue in the United States. For example, the U.S. educational system often fails to recognize or uplift the funds of knowledge and other cultural assets that Black and Latina/o students possess, which has implications for their engagement in math. The goal of this study is to understand, from the perspectives of Black and Latina/o students, what are the salient barriers for math engagement. …

School-Based Discrimination and Social-Emotional Learning Among Latinx Youth
This study examines the association between school-based discrimination and social-emotional learning (SEL) for Latinx students and the potential protective role of school commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). We also examine whether these associations differ based on Latinx youth's gender and sexual orientation. The sample included 2,017 Latinx youth (ages 11-21; 49% girls) from middle schools and high schools across the United S…
Longitudinal associations between adolescent out‐of‐school time and adult substance use
INTRODUCTION: Based on Bronfenbrenner's bioecological theory and Bornstein's specificity principle, the purpose of this study was to examine adolescents' time in out-of-school settings as a precursor of three types of problematic substance use in adulthood (i.e., binge drinking, regular marijuana use, and use of illicit drugs). METHOD: Adolescents (N = 978) reported the time they spent in four common out-of-school settings at ages 15 and 18: unsu…
Longitudinal associations between parent degree/occupation, parent support, and adolescent motivational beliefs in STEM
INTRODUCTION: The United States struggles with racial/ethnic disparities in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) degrees and occupations. According to situated expectancy-value theory, the experience and knowledge parents gain through STEM degrees and occupations shape the STEM support they provide and relatedly their adolescents' STEM motivational beliefs. METHODS: = 14 years old at 9th grade), which is a recent U.S. data set tha…
Working together as a team really gets them fired up”
Opportunities for collaborative learning reflect positive peer processes that have strong implications for adolescents’ developmental experiences in afterschool programs (ASPs). However, collaborative learning, which involves considering multiple viewpoints and coordinating actions with peers to accomplish a shared goal, is often difficult for adolescents to navigate. Utilizing qualitative methods, the purpose of this study was to identify ASP me…
Lessons from the Taiwan Syllabus Project
