Chapter Eight A Mixed Methods Approach to Equity and Justice Research
Publication date: 2016 Source:Advances in Child Development and Behavior, Volume 50 Author(s): Rashmita S. Mistry, Elizabeth S. White, Kirby A. Chow, Katherine M. Griffin, Lindsey Nenadal Mixed methods research approaches are gaining traction across various social science disciplines, including among developmental scientists. In this chapter, we discuss the utility of a mixed methods research approach in examining issues related to equity and justice. We incorporate a brief overview of quantitative and qualitative monomethod research approaches in our larger discussion of the advantages, procedures, and consi...

Chapter Seven Youth-Led Participatory Action Research
Publication date: 2016 Source:Advances in Child Development and Behavior, Volume 50 Author(s): Emily J. Ozer Youth-led participatory action research (YPAR) is an approach to scientific inquiry and social change grounded in principles of equity that engages young people in identifying problems relevant to their own lives, conducting research to understand the problems, and advocating for changes based on research evidence. This chapter provides an introduction to YPAR followed by consideration of the (a) developmental relevance of YPAR for marginalized youth, (b) implications of YPAR for developmental science research...

Chapter Six Just Good Developmental Science
Publication date: 2016 Source:Advances in Child Development and Behavior, Volume 50 Author(s): Deborah Rivas-Drake, Tissyana C. Camacho, Casta Guillaume Given the noted difficulty of recruiting and retaining ethnic and racial minority populations into various kinds of research endeavors (e.g., basic, prevention, intervention, health), they remain underrepresented and thus underserved by the research community as compared to other US groups. As developmental scientists, we often ask questions that imply longitudinal research designs, and thus, issues of attentiveness and responsiveness are paramount to the success...

Chapter Five A Right to Disclose
Publication date: 2016 Source:Advances in Child Development and Behavior, Volume 50 Author(s): Shannon D. Snapp, Stephen T. Russell, Mariella Arredondo, Russell Skiba There has been growing attention to sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) in child and adolescent development, public discourse, and research. A strong tension is clear: The right for participation, and thus representation in data, science, and policy, is often understood as conflicting with the right for protection, that is, safety from disclosure of a marginalized orientation or identity. Both participation and protection rights are also...

Chapter Four Gender Stereotypes and Discrimination
Publication date: 2016 Source:Advances in Child Development and Behavior, Volume 50 Author(s): Christia Spears Brown, Ellen A. Stone In this chapter, we summarize and integrate some of the latest developmental science research on gender stereotypes and discrimination in childhood and adolescence. We focus on five forms of sexism: (a) stereotypes and discrimination against boys regarding their school behaviors and disciplinary actions; (b) stereotypes and discrimination against girls in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) domains; (c) stereotypes and discrimination in sports; (d) peer gendered h...

Chapter Three Social Inequality in Population Developmental Health
Publication date: 2016 Source:Advances in Child Development and Behavior, Volume 50 Author(s): Daniel P. Keating The conceptual framework for this chapter focuses on outcomes in developmental health as a key indicator of equity. Not all disparities in developmental health are indicators of a failure of equity and justice, but those that are clearly linked to social patterns in theoretically coherent and empirically substantial ways serve as a powerful diagnostic tool. They are especially diagnostic when they point to social factors that are remediable, especially in comparison to societies in which such social dispar...

Chapter Two Toward an Intersectional Approach in Developmental Science
Publication date: 2016 Source:Advances in Child Development and Behavior, Volume 50 Author(s): Negin Ghavami, Dalal Katsiaficas, Leoandra Onnie Rogers Developmental theory and research have often focused on a single social identity category, for example, race or sexual orientation, and examined the consequences of that category on life outcomes. Yet intersectional models of social disadvantage (eg, Cole, 2009; Crenshaw, 1995; King, 1988) suggest that social categories combine to shape the experiences and life outcomes of individuals across life domains. In this chapter, we review empirical research that offers in...
