Investigating the Development of Positive Peer Interactions in Low-Income Latino DLL Preschool Children
Research Findings: There is limited research regarding socio-emotional development in low-income Latino Dual Language Learner (DLL) children. A total of 14 studies have been identified in a comprehensive review of the literature (Halle et al. 2014). Within these studies the majority have focused on problem behaviors within this population. Through a strength-based lens, the current study examined changes in the development of positive peer intera…
Teacher language quality in preschool classrooms
Are We All Speaking the Same Language? Exploring Language Interactions in the Homes of Young Latino DLLs Living in the U.S
Research Findings: The Latino population within the U.S. is heterogeneous with diversity in education level, country of origin, and English language fluency. Latino children often enter school with limited English language skills. In the current study, we surveyed 448 Latino families of Cuban, Mexican, and Puerto Rican descent regarding their home language use providing an in-depth look at the language interactions within Latino families residing…
Preschool teachers’ language and literacy practices with dual language learners
The purposes of this study were to (a) examine the degree to which teachers used linguistically responsive practices to support the language and literacy development of Spanish-speaking Dual Language Learners (DLL) and (b) to investigate the associations between these practices and select teacher-level factors. The sample consisted of 72 preschool teachers. Observational data were collected on practices. Teachers self-reported on language and cul…
Developing Measures of Community‐Relevant Outcomes for Violence Prevention Programs
Community‐Based Participatory Research is a research paradigm that encourages community participation in designing and implementing evaluation research, though the actual outcome measures usually reflect the “external” academic researchers’ view of program effect and the policy‐makers’ needs for decision‐making. This paper describes a replicable process by which existing standardized psychometric scales commonly used in youth‐related intervention…
Predicting Spanish–English Bilingual Children’s Language Abilities
PURPOSE: In this study, the authors investigated factors that affect bilingual children's vocabulary and story recall abilities in their 2 languages. METHOD: Participants included 191 Latino families and their children, who averaged 59 months of age. Data on parental characteristics and children's exposure to and usage of Spanish and English were collected. The authors assessed children's Spanish and English vocabulary and story recall abilities …
Access and Coordination of Health Care Service for People With Disabilities
Individuals with disabilities often have multiple complex medical and nonmedical needs. Furthermore, in the current facility-directed health care system, they are at enhanced risk of receiving poorly coordinated, suboptimal care. This is especially problematic because individuals with disabilities face multiple barriers to receiving quality health care services, ranging from structural barriers (e.g., physical access to doctors' offices) to proce…
