What We Bring to the Table
Mentoring programs are a popular approach for supporting youth through relationships with adult mentors, but few mentoring studies have included the mentor perspective. The present study comprised 80 undergraduate mentors ( M age = 19.83, 52.5% White, 76.3% female) and elementary‐aged mentees ( M age = 10.61, 91.3% Black, 53.8% female). Mentee and mentor perceptions of the mentoring relationship and their other adult social supports were assessed…

How social and cultural contexts shape the development of coping
Because the patterns of coping shown by children and youth depend on the particular types and levels of stress they face, it is difficult to understand or study coping, or to promote it in interventions, unless coping is conceptualized as embedded within the overall ecology of stressful conditions, including the demands and resources that influence the use, utility, and impact of coping

Structured and open-ended interviews explored perceptions regarding mature women's sexuality and HIV-related risk for patient-physician communication am…

Global attention has focused on Georgia as a result of the recent political and military conflict. However, the country also has a rich archaeological heritage which is little known in the West. The Anglo-Georgian Expedition to Nokalakevi (AGEN), set up in 2000, aims to explore the archaeology of a major site that was occupied from at least the 8th century BC to recent times. It also offers training to Georgian archaeologists and international st…
Gender, Body Image, and Depressive Symptoms among Low‐Income African American Adolescents
The present study tested for gender differences in depression and body image among a sample of 6th–8th grade low‐income African American adolescents. Gender differences were found, with adolescent girls more likely to report both depressive symptoms and poor body image. The most frequently endorsed body image concern for both boys and girls was the desire to lose weight, with approximately half of the girls in this sample reporting they would lik…
