Despite facing systemic and persistent exclusion from STEM careers, Black and Latine youth show rising STEM aspirations during adolescence under certain conditions. Guided by meaning-making and career development perspectives, this study explores how ethnic-racial identity and career outcome expectations predict STEM aspirations among Black and…

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between social identity and adherence in the context of a school-based, 8-week structured group exercise program. Methods: Secondary students (N = 116; M[subscript age] = 15.52 years) from 10 newly formed school-based exercise clubs reported social identity perceptions specific to their…

As states incorporate measures of college readiness into their accountability systems, school and district leaders need effective strategies to identify and support students at risk of not enrolling in college. Although there is an abundant literature on early warning indicators for high school dropout, fewer studies focus on indicators for…

In this study, the relationship between clusters of hope and a psychosocial profile of academic talent development is examined in a sample of 466 academically gifted adolescents. First, cluster analysis is leveraged to examine whether interpretable three- and four-cluster hope solutions can be found in the sample. Second, differences among a group…
