Flourishing, Mental Health, and School Engagement Among U.S. Children
Housing Hardships and Health Risks Among Children and Youth
Housing and neighbourhood contexts are critical social determinants of health for children and youth. However, little is known about how co‐occurring socioecological factors, including household, housing and neighbourhood contexts, cumulatively influence child and youth health risks. The aims of this study were to examine the combined effects of household‐, housing‐ and neighbourhood‐based risk and protective factors on child and youth health ris…
“As you know, parents' love differs from others.” Understanding needs and strengths shaping mental health among unaccompanied Afghan minors in resettlement in the U.S
Globally, unaccompanied minors face more significant risks for poorer mental health and other psychosocial issues while also grappling with mental health, language, and acculturation challenges. The United States admitted 1,550 unaccompanied Afghan minors (UAMs) as humanitarian parolees among some 76,000 Afghans evacuated following the US withdrawal and Taliban takeover in 2021. Most UAMs had lived all their lives in Afghanistan's protracted conf…
Exploring associations between neighborhood amenities and mental health
The presence of neighborhood amenities influences youth mental health, with variation by race. • Sidewalks were associated with a higher likelihood of mental health challenges for some groups but lower likelihood for others, signaling the need for attention on how contextual factors shape this relationship. • Community investments in neighborhood amenities can support youth mental health, but require diverse youth voices to achieve equitable outc…
Examining the Utility of the Early Childhood Development Index (Ecdi) among Children in the Nigeria Context
An estimated 6 million children under the age of five in Nigeria (out of nearly 31 million) risk not reaching their full developmental potential. The dearth of context-relevant measures poses a challenge to the planning and implementation of effective interventions. This study assesses the utility of the Early Childhood Development Index (ECDI) in Nigeria. We used the Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys to track progress among 3- to 4-year-old chi…
Individual, familial, and sociocontextual correlates of maternal caregiving among African American adolescents in public housing
Structural and Intermediary Social Determinants of Health and the Emotional and Behavioral Health of US Children
Children grow up in homes where varying environmental and socioeconomic contexts have a bearing on their emotional and behavioral health (EBH). This study used data from a representative sample of the child supplement of the US National Health Information Survey (NHIS) and applied the social determinants of health (SDoH) framework to explore factors associated with child EBH. We conducted a path analysis of the child's EBH measured by the strengt…
Stress Biomarkers in Black Youth
Variations in risk, resilience, and protective factors for cognitive and socioemotional development among 3- to 4-year-old children in Nigeria
Social protection and absorptive capacity
Exposure to Violence and Posttraumatic Stress Among Youth in Public Housing
Assessing the Modified Neighborhood Cohesion Instrument Among African American Adolescents Living in Public Housing
The modified NCI is not ideal for assessing neighborhood cohesion among this understudied population. Future research should prioritize psychometric testing alongside cognitive interviewing, to provide a contextualized measure of neighborhood cohesion for this population
Getting to zero HIV/Aids in sub‐Saharan Africa
This study explored a community perception of the facilitators and inhibitors of Getting to Zero (GTZ) in rural Zambia, sub-Saharan Africa. Data were collected in 2017. We use the Social Determinants of Health framework to guide organisation of key themes emerging from semistructured, focus group interviews with community members (N = 52). Data were analysed through an iterative descriptive/thematic approach which allowed for the highlighting of …
Maternal caregiver's typologies and internalized behaviors in African American adolescents living in urban public housing
AIMS: This study explores how variations in maternal caregiver types may be associated with adolescents' internalized behaviors (i.e., depressive symptoms) and resources (i.e., attitudes toward delinquent behaviors and efficacious beliefs). METHOD: Using a sample of 375 African American youth from public housing in three large US cities, we used Latent Profile Analysis to identify various maternal caregiver classes. Multinomial logistic regressio…
Dimensions of altruism behaviors among Americans in the general social survey
Altruism as a value and behavior describes actions that express selfless concern for others, empathy, and a consideration for the need of others. Altruism behaviors may be considered as primal in the evolution of approaches to social welfare. At a time of heightened disparities in meeting welfare needs, there is a call for individuals to lift up the other for the collective good, charity beginning with one. Using data from the General Social Surv…
Living through war
Children in armed conflict are frequently deprived of basic needs, psychologically supportive environments, educational and vocational opportunities, and other resources that promote positive psychosocial development and mental health. This article describes the mental health challenges faced by conflict-affected children and youth, the interventions designed to prevent or ameliorate the psychosocial impact of conflict-related experiences, and a …
Conceptualizing the African child as orphan and vulnerable
Despite the decline in AIDS-related deaths worldwide, the consequence of the disease continues to be felt. This is exemplified in the unprecedented numbers of adult deaths and inability of the extended family to cope. These factors have impacted the welfare of children negatively. Focusing specifically on sub-Saharan Africa, a region severely struck by the pandemic, we examine the effects of the label ‘Orphan and Vulnerable Children’ (OVC), which…
