Do measures commonly used in body image research perform adequately with African American college women
This study examines reliability and validity estimates for 3 widely used measures in body image research in a sample of African American college women (N = 278). Internal consistency estimates were adequate (α coefficients above .70) for all measures, and evidence of convergent and discriminant validity was found. Confirmatory factor analyses failed to replicate the hypothesized factor structures of these measures. Exploratory factor analyses ind…
Development and Feasibility of an HIV and IPV Prevention Intervention Among Low-Income Mothers Receiving Services in a Missouri Day Care Center
This article outlines the development and feasibility of an HIV and IPV prevention intervention.

The use of health protective behaviors changed from pre- to postintervention in the clinically desirable direction. Results indicated that intervention delivery wa…
Research With African Americans
The authors briefly explore literature related to recruiting African American research participants, reflect on their experiences conducting body image research with a sample of African American college women in an earlier study (s. Kashubeck-West et al., 2008), and discuss some methodological and cultural challenges that they encountered during data collection for the study.Los autores exploran brevemente la literatura relacionada con el recluta…

African American Female Adult Learners
This qualitative study used a series of focus groups to examine the experiences of African American female adult learners in higher education ( N = 10). This article highlights three categories that emerged: the motivations, challenges, and sources of strength the participants experienced as they worked toward their academic goals. The findings are important to professionals working with African American women in academic settings and for those w…
