The Association Between Psychological Flexibility and Sense of Belonging Among U.S. Undergraduate Students
A Prospective Study of the Association Between School Connectedness in Adolescence and Social Connection in Adulthood
BACKGROUND: Adolescent school connectedness is a protective factor for adverse adult health outcomes, but its potential promotive effects on adult social connection have not been examined. METHODS: Data from 5 waves of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Waves I [1994-95] - V [2016-2018]) were used to examine the covariate-adjusted association between adolescent school connectedness (6 items, Wave II) and 6 indicators o…
Relational Health as a Pathway from Trauma to Flourishing in School Communities
BACKGROUND: Because traumatic life experiences are common, teaching and learning can be difficult without recognizing how trauma can make people feel psychologically unsafe. Safety can be restored through healthy relationships. CONTRIBUTIONS TO THEORY: We present a framework for how relational health-the capacity to develop and maintain safe, stable, and nurturing relationships with others-may allow flourishing in school communities, even amidst …
Teacher connection and student perspective-taking and their association with school belonging among adolescents in 62 countries
Addressing worldwide declines in adolescents’ school belonging requires identifying factors to target in reversing this trend. We hypothesized that adolescents with higher levels of teacher connection and perspective-taking would have greater school belonging and that the joint association of both factors with school belonging would be more than additive. We analysed cross-sectional survey data from 15-year-olds in 62 countries (N = 392,096) coll…
The Association Between Teacher Connection and Flourishing Among Early Adolescents in 25 Countries
We aimed to determine whether early adolescents who report higher levels of teacher connection have a greater prevalence of flourishing and whether this association is present across levels of parent connection. We analyzed cross-sectional data, collected in the International Survey of Children’s Well-Being (2016–2019), from 33,269 11- to 13-year-olds in 25 countries. The teacher connection score, analyzed as quartiles, asked about care, support,…
The interaction of adverse childhood experiences and gender as risk factors for depression and anxiety disorders in US adults: A cross-sectional study
For both MDE and AD, there was synergy between the two risk factors of exposure to ACEs and being female. Identification and treatment of MDE and AD may benefit from understanding the mechanisms involved in the synergistic interaction of gender with ACEs
The association of daily spiritual experiences with depression among Head Start staff
Snacks are not food”. Low-income, urban mothers' perceptions of feeding snacks to their preschool-aged children
The Physical and Mental Health of Head Start Staff: The Pennsylvania Head Start Staff Wellness Survey, 2012
INTRODUCTION: Despite attention to the health of low-income children in Head Start, little is known about the health of adults working for the program. The objective of our study was to compare the physical and mental health of women working in Pennsylvania Head Start programs with the health of US women who have similar sociodemographic characteristics. METHODS: We used data from a web-based survey in 2012 in which 2,199 of 3,375 (65.2%) staff i…
