Influences of (Non)Engagement in Volunteering
This qualitative research study examines how volunteering and nonvolunteering is associated with immigrant perceptions of their integration into US society. The study analyzes 24 semi-structured interviews to explore differences in social integration experiences and perceptions of social integration between immigrant volunteers and nonvolunteers. The study's theoretical framework is intersectionality, and the conceptual framework consists of soci…
Addressing inequity through youth participatory action research
In this paper, we explore how youth participatory action research methods serve as a means of uncovering and addressing hidden curricula in schools. To illuminate, we present an example of one school-based youth participatory action research project in which high school students examined racism and sexism in their school. We discuss both the successes and challenges of youth participatory action research as a methodological approach to address in…
Parenthood and Motivation to Change in Homeless Older Adolescents
Parenthood among adolescents who are homeless is poorly studied. Understanding how these adolescents perceive parenthood is important for providing effective health care, public policy, and social services. Fifteen fathers and 16 mothers, ages 18 to 22, from a shelter in Philadelphia participated in semistructured interviews. Coding and analysis involved standard qualitative methodologies. Participants identified parenthood as an important turnin…

Defying Normative Male Identities
This qualitative study discovers teenage boys whose connections to Judaism and Jewish life offered them resilience and contextual opportunities for identity development. Those who have active, positive Jewish identities describe adaptations that are more independent of adolescent peer norms and freer, in terms of masculine pressures, than less Jewishly identified boys. Finding countercultural vitality in these boys' masculine identities, reflecti…
Developing a pedagogy of opportunity for students and their teachers
This article examines an action research study of a collaboratively constructed professional development program for teachers in an urban elementary school. Through the use of qualitative and quantitative methods, Wirth, a teacher and Literacy Leader for over 25 years within the research setting, studied the structure and process of this initiative and explored the issues that emerged from her work as an insider action researcher. The article exa…
