Comparing the Effectiveness of Solution-Focused Brief Therapy for Adolescent Outcomes in Schools Between the U.S. and East Asian Studies
Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) can be a culturally adaptive school-based intervention for youth. Despite the evidence that supports the practical use of SFBT with various populations, its effectiveness particularly among East Asian American (EAA) youth outcomes in school settings requires further study. For this systematic review and meta-analysis, we searched U.S. and East Asian studies (e.g., Chinese, Korean, and Japanese) published from…

From Grief to Grievance
In this paper, we consider the political purposes to which the complex and often powerful testimony chronicling loss of family members to the ‘war on terror’ is put in the United States. We argue that, it is critical to examine the different invocations of the family in these expressions of grief. In fact, we argue that it is crucial to do so in order to distinguish in ethical as well as political terms how the family is deployed, or sometimes di…
