Mentor-mentee similarity in college peer mentoring
Using a quasi-experimental study we examine the effects of similarity-matching, or matching on shared background characteristics, between incoming college students (N = 2072) and their peer mentors, on academic, well-being, relationship, and application engagement outcomes. Hierarchical Linear Modeling and Multiple Linear Regression were used to analyze data leveraged from a university-wide technology-enabled peer mentoring program for incoming f…
Dreams of the Future
To better inform educational policies for Latino students, this study explores the relations between Latino students' conceptions of their futures and their risk status for school dropout.

Four hundred fifteen nin…

Students showed high educational and occupational aspirations and high rates of optimism and internal contr…

The authors suggest that efforts to overcome this dissonance focus on a reconceptualization of professionalism among youth providers, whereupon the primary goals of servi…
