Child Trauma and Family Adversity Predict Treatment Completion Among High‐Risk Youth in Intensive Home‐Based Treatment
Over the past three decades, rigorous empirical research has highlighted both cumulative and non‐additive effects of childhood trauma, which are intricately intertwined with the broader developmental and psychosocial context. Latent class analysis has proven useful in identifying at‐risk groups, thereby informing the design of targeted prevention and early‐intervention efforts. Extending prior research to highly complex, high‐risk children and fa…
Adolescent Engagement in a Binge-Eating Behavioral Health Intervention
Traditional weight management approaches focused solely on weight loss as a measure of success may lead youth to internalize negative beliefs about their appearance, and feel they have little control over their health. We examined how perceptions of appearance and health-related locus of control (HRLOC) influenced engagement and outcomes in a behavioral health intervention for binge eating. Thirty adolescents aged 14-18 years completed measures o…
Associations between Profiles of Maternal Strengths and Positive Parenting Practices among Mothers Experiencing Adversity
SYNOPSISObjective. Few studies have explored associations between strength-based factors and positive parenting among mothers experiencing adversity. Adopting a person-centered statistical approach, we examined how patterns of maternal strengths relate to positive parenting practices. Design. Participants were 188 female primary caregivers (71% African American) who experienced intimate partner violence and/or were living with HIV. Women were rec…

Childhood Exposure to Partner Violence as a Moderator of Current Partner Violence and Negative Parenting
This study examined the interactive effect of mothers' exposure to caregiver intimate partner violence (IPV) during childhood and the amount of violence experienced with a current partner on negative parenting practices. Mothers ( N = 119) were recruited from community sites serving individuals experiencing IPV. Findings indicated that the following childhood IPV exposure variables moderated the association between current IPV severity and negati…
Resilience as a moderator between syndemics and depression in mothers living with HIV
Physical and emotional adversities in mothers have rippling effects across the family system. While an association between individual maternal adversities and problematic mental health outcomes has been established, less is known about co-existing adversities in mothers. Consistent with the syndemic conceptual framework, we examined the co-occurrence of Substance Abuse, Violence, and AIDS/HIV (i.e., SAVA), which are three adversities that uniquel…
Psychological Flexibility Among Youth with Type 1 Diabetes
Psychological flexibility, a complex concept encompassing both acceptance and action related factors, has been identified as a target for intervention for diabetes management. Research suggests acceptance, self-management, and stress, all factors that influence psychological flexibility, have an impact on adaptation to type 1 diabetes (T1D) by youth independently. However, yet to be explored is individually varying patterns of these variables and…
Physical Activity, Sedentary Behaviors, and Nutritional Risk Profiles and Relations to Body Mass Index, Obesity, and Overweight in Eighth Grade
The objective of this article was to determine (1) the existence of individually varying patterns of physical activity, sedentary behavior, and nutrition intake risk; and (2) how these risk-patterns relate to youth's demographics, Body mass index (BMI) and psychosocial functioning. Participants (N = 9,304) from the 2007 8th Grade Early Childhood Longitudinal Study Cohort completed the revised Self-Description Questionnaire II. Age, sex, height, a…
