State-Level Cash Assistance, Conflict Frequency, and Relationship Dissolution in Low-Income Contexts
Unifying human development and family science
Co-Guest editors Ramona Faith Oswald and Anisa Zvonkovic invited us to comment on the article by Dyer (2024) in the special issue, Theorizing Academia: Critical and Futuristic Perspectives. In her article, Dyer, as a faculty member at a highly regarded teaching-focused state university, offers her perspective on how Human Development and Family Science evolved from Home Economics. We agree with many of Dyer's thoughts, but our perspective deviate…
The Role of Resilience in the Impact of Family Economic Adversity on Youth Emotional Distress over Time
The Intersection of First-Generation Latino Fathers’ Work, Cultural Values, and Communication in Their Children’s Educational Attainment
This study contributes to the literature on understanding complexities related to educational disparities among Latino families. The roles of first-generation Latino fathers in their children’s education are often mischaracterized within the schools. Utilizing role theory, our study details how Latino fathers’ work, cultural values, and communication are key to understanding their involvement in their children’s education. Seventeen first-generat…
Spirituality and Religious Engagement, Community Involvement, Outness, and Family Support
The current study utilized data from the Social Justice Sexuality Project to investigate influences on psychological well-being of LGBT+ Muslims (N = 75) in the United States. Specifically, path analyses were used to examine the association between spiritual and religious engagement, LGBT community involvement, outness, and family support with psychological well-being. Control variables included lifespan Islam involvement, age, income, and the ag…
Family and community support among sexual minorities of color
Recent scholars have highlighted the relative lack of research on sexual and gender minorities, and indicate that even less is known about sexual and gender minorities of color. Utilizing the resiliency and intersectionality perspectives of minority stress, this study seeks to address this gap by examining the effects of community and individual resilience on psychological well-being among gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer (GLBTQ) pe…
The Influence of Parental Alcoholism on Parent–Adolescent Relationships From Adolescence Into Emerging Adulthood
Exposure to parental alcoholism can inhibit a child’s ability to become a successfully functioning young adult. Based on qualitative interviews, this study provides a deeper understanding of how those parent–adolescent relationships are associated with risky internalizing and externalizing behaviors. This qualitative study explores the lives of 13 young adult children of alcoholics (ACOAs) and provides a unique perspective through an adaptive dev…

Bettering the educational attainment for Latino families
The immigrant Latino population of North Central Indiana has hopes of improving youth’s academics, but must overcome tremendous obstacles to do so. The current study addresses the needs of immigrant Latino families while transitioning to the United States. Sixty-three participants were interviewed in association with a three-year ethnographic study. Findings suggest access for Latino parents to the education system is affected by community factor…
Lower levels of maternal capital in early life predict offspring obesity in adulthood
The maternal capital perspective is useful for explaining how and why early life characteristics (including maternal resources) predict obesity in adulthood. Implications of the findings are discussed
The role of race and teachers’ cultural awareness in predicting low-income, Black and Hispanic students’ perceptions of educational attainment
Harsh Parenting, Deviant Peers, Adolescent Risky Behavior
Although research supports the influence of parents and peers on adolescent risky behavior, less is known about mechanisms proposed to explain this relation. This study examined the influence of adolescent attitudes and intentions about such behaviors. Prospective, longitudinal data came from rural youth who participated throughout adolescence (n= 451). Observed harsh parenting and relationship with deviant peers was assessed in early adolescence…
Barriers Preventing Latina Immigrants from Seeking Advocacy Services for Domestic Violence Victims
“He Said They’d Deport Me”
Significant developments have been made in research on domestic violence experienced by women as well as on the practical front of the services women seek and receive when living with partner abuse. Yet, most of the studies that explore the experiences of victims of partner abuse in the United States have focused on nonimmigrant White women. The current study aims to contribute to the literature by exploring Latina immigrant victims’ experiences …
Undocumented Latina Networks and Responses to Domestic Violence in a New Immigrant Gateway
New immigrant gateways differ significantly from areas of established settlement, with repercussions for domestic violence situations. Through interviews and a focus group with undocumented Latinas, we examine one specific area of such difference, that of formal and informal networks. These networks affect women's ability to seek and obtain help and procure their overall well-being. Findings suggest that the incorporation of Latinas into new gate…

How Much Does School Matter? An Examination of Adolescent Dating Violence Perpetration
Welfare History, Sanctions, and Developmental Outcomes among Low‐Income Children and Youth
Using a representative sample of low‐income, urban preschoolers (n = 755) and adolescents (n = 1,130), this article addresses links among family welfare receipt, family processes, and child outcomes. For adolescents, family welfare receipt is related to decreased cognitive achievement and heightened behavioral and emotional problems. For preschoolers, both current and past welfare receipt are associated with problematic functioning. Families who …

Modeling the Effects of Expressed Emotion, Psychiatric Symptomology, and Marital Quality Levels on Male and Female Verbal Aggression
Previous research has linked expressed emotion (EE) levels and psychiatric symptomology, whereas other empirical efforts have examined the relationship between EE and marital relationship variables. Still other research has linked psychological conditions with acts of aggression, and the impact of marital issues within this domain of inquiry also has been explored. The study presented here examined the combined effects of EE, marital quality, and…

Mothers' Transitions from Welfare to Work and the Well-Being of Preschoolers and Adolescents
Results from a longitudinal study of 2402 low-income families during the recent unprecedented era of welfare reform suggest that mothers' transitions off welfare and into employment are not associated with negative outcomes for preschoolers (ages 2 to 4 years) or young adolescents (ages 10 to 14 years). Indeed, no significant associations with mothers' welfare and employment transitions were found for preschoolers, and the dominant pattern was al…
Confirmatory Factor Analysis of the Family Emotional Involvement and Criticism Scale
Using a convenience sample of 152 married couples, the present study tested models that alternately considered family members' perceptions of Expressed Emotion to be a one-, two-, three-, or four-factor construct as measured by the Family Emotional Involvement and Criticism Scale. Results of confirmatory factor analysis procedures indicated that perceptions of Expressed Emotion were best represented by a four-factor model that consisted of involv…

Matched or Mismatched Environments? The Relationship of Family and School Differentiation to Adolescents' Psychosocial Adjustment
This study applies the family-systems concept of differentiation (the balance of autonomy-granting and connectedness) to another primary system of adolescent development-school. This study assessed the relationships among levels of family and school differentiation to the externalizing and internalizing behaviors, peer group membership, and academic achievement of 693 middle and high school students. High levels of family and school differentiati…
