Drexler James, Courtney M. Bonam, Valerie Jones Taylor
People often assume areas where black people live are dangerous, impoverished, and rundown, whereas they assume White areas to be safe, wealthy, and well-maintained (Bonam et al. in J Exp Psychol Gen 145(11):1561–1582, 2016). These space-focused racial stereotypes shape how people perceive, evaluate, and treat physical space, such as houses and neighborhoods. Further, people often associate specif...... hiện toàn bộ

Educational Expectations in African American Families: Assessing the Importance of Immediate Performance RequirementsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 10 - Trang 158-169 - 2018
James P. Huguley, Eric Kyere, Ming-Te Wang
Prior research has shown that parents’ educational expectations contribute positively to several student academic outcomes, including grades in school, standardized test scores, and school completion. These expectations are typically conceptualized as long-term educational attainment beliefs, and consequently, it remains unclear how parents’ short-term expectations for performance (i.e., grades in...... hiện toàn bộ

Kathryn Freeman Anderson, Andrew S. Fullerton
The literature on the relationship between residential segregation and health outcomes for African Americans is well developed, but less is known about this association for Latinos in the USA.

Using geographic concentration of poverty theory, we analyze the impact of Latino segregation on a series...... hiện toàn bộ

Low Social Status Markers: Do They Predict Depressive Symptoms in Adolescence?Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 119-128 - 2011
Benita Jackson, Elizabeth Goodman
Some markers of social disadvantage are associated robustly with depressive symptoms among adolescents: female gender and lower socioeconomic status (SES), respectively. Others are associated equivocally, notably black v. white race/ethnicity. Few studies examine whether markers of social disadvantage by gender, SES, and race/ethnicity jointly predict self-reported depressive symptoms during adole...... hiện toàn bộ

Christy L. Erving, Ornella Hills
Using the National Survey of American Life, this study examines the impact of neighborhood social integration (i.e., contact with neighbors, participation in neighborhood organizations) on mental health (i.e., depressive symptoms, life satisfaction), and the extent to which these associations vary between African Americans (N = 3191) and Afro-Caribbeans (N = 1416). Results reveal that contact with...... hiện toàn bộ
Collective Racial Bias and the Black-White Test Score GapSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 14 - Trang 283-292 - 2021
Francis A. Pearman
Anti-black bias is an important focal point in conversations about the sources of racial inequality in schools. Much of the empirical research on this issue has focused on the racial biases of individual teachers, finding that racial inequality in student outcomes is generally worse when teachers have more racial bias. Less is known, however, about how racial inequality in schools relates to anti-...... hiện toàn bộ
