University aspirations and pathways: Experiences of prospective first-in-family high school students from migrant backgrounds
Prospective first-in-family (PFiF) students are high school students whose parents have not attended university. As potential first-generation university students, PFiF students are often considered educationally disadvantaged due to their family’s lack of experience with higher education. The university journey begins in high school, and this qualitative study explored the perspectives of 10 PFiF high school students from migrant backgrounds in …
Same-sex parented families: Can stigma contribute to resilience
Going around the long route to get where I want to be: Exploring the university experiences of care leaver students
There is an evident, systemic lack of understanding regarding the university success of care leaver students. The few studies in this area indicate that care leavers tend to be highly independent, motivated, and determined to academically succeed, yet also more likely to face compound disadvantage that can impact their participation and completion. The current study sought to better understand the perceived support needs of care leaver university…
The role of adult facilitators in arts‐based extracurricular settings: Perceived factors for success of adult–youth relationships
Extracurricular arts programmes and supportive adult relationships provide youth with opportunities for positive development, however, more research about how relationships within these programmes develop and what factors and practices adults use to guide their work would help to improve youth programmes' outcomes. Eight Film Club facilitators at an after-school film-making club for students in grades 5 through 8 were interviewed about their perc…
Barriers, support, and resilience of prospective first‐in‐family university students: Australian high school educators' perspective
First‐in‐family (FiF) university students—or first generation students—are recognised to have disadvantages and lack social and cultural capital compared with non‐FiF students. The challenges FiF students encounter at university are well understood, however, their journey begins while still in high school. We call this high school cohort prospective FiF (PFiF) students and young people whose parents never attended university. This qualitative stu…
Building youth leadership skills and community awareness: Engagement of rural youth with a community‐based leadership program
AIMS: Community leadership programs have the potential to positively impact many aspects of young people's development, as well as the community. This study, therefore, aims to understand the experiences of the young people, particularly rural youth, involved with the Western Bulldogs Youth Leadership Project (WBYLP), a 7-month program for Year-9 and Year-10 students, and if the developmental assets are a good framework to inform future program d…
Longitudinal predictors for Mexican Americans’ high school and college graduation: Individual and ecodevelopmental factors
This longitudinal study of Mexican-American youth and emerging adults examines several ecodevelopmental factors longitudinally predicting high school and college graduation. Data from 1257 Mexican-American youth (including those born in Mexico and whose families are from Mexico) from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health) were utilized. Predictors were measured when participants were in grades 7 through 11 and high scho…

Australian university students’ access to web-based lecture recordings and the relationship with lecture attendance and academic performance
Web-based lecture technology (WBLT) allows students access to recorded lectures delivered live to the classroom any time and to any device with internet. This technology has become standard across universities. This study of Australian undergraduate psychology students explored many important questions related to WBLT. About 75% of students surveyed utilised recorded lectures. Qualitative responses allowed students to explain many reasons for usi…
Pre-leadership processes in leadership training for adolescents
Neurocognitive perspectives in language outcomes of Early Head Start: Language and cognitive stimulation and maternal depression
A neurocognitive, developmental framework was used to examine the effectiveness of Early Head Start (EHS) programs. Evidence has shown that caregiver variables impact early brain development. This study aimed to better understand this relation. Results showed that the EHS program made no significant impact, and at 3 years old, children were significantly behind population norms in language development, partially replicating previous findings with…
