This book was released on 2017 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Latino population in the United States is growing rapidly along with the number of Latino college entrants. However, a significantly smaller percentage of Latino college students go on to graduate with four-year degrees when compared to other racial/ethnic groups. Career decision-making self-efficacy (CDMSE) has been identified as an important variable to consider given its empirically supported associations with academic persistence and lower college dropout rates. While research has supported the academic and career benefits of higher CDMSE levels, gaps in the literature exist regarding CDMSE and sociocultural factors among Latino university students. Utilizing Social Cognitive Career Theory as the theoretical framework, this study explored multiple sociocultural variables (i.e., acculturation, college generational status, and cultural congruity) and their associations with CDMSE among a sample of 260 Latino college students at a Hispanic-Serving Institution and Land Grant University in the southwestern United States. Regression analyses confirmed that both Anglo-oriented acculturation and cultural congruity significantly and positively predicted CDMSE. A hierarchical regression analysis determined that cultural congruity contributed unique and significant variance in CDMSE after accounting for the influences of acculturation and college generational status. A t-test analysis found no significant differences in CDMSE scores between first-generation and continuing generation college students. Implications for counseling psychology, study limitations, and suggestions for future research are discussed.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aimed to examine the relationship between Hispanic women in the workplace, explore the cultural effects they confront when making professional decisions, and consider career satisfaction, commitment, and subjective happiness as influencers. The study employed quantitative research methodologies to examine two generations of Latinas in the United States, representing fourteen national origin countries. An online survey was used to perform this correlational research. The findings indicate a link between career decision self-efficacy and subjective happiness among a sample of highly educated Latinas in Generations X and Y. This research offered a fresh perspective on one of the most diverse ethnic and gender groups in the labor pool as contributors to individual families and broader economic influences.

Download or read book Handbook of Race Ethnicity and Gender in Psychology written by Marie L. Miville and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-02-06 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multicultural aspects of psychology have received some attention in the literature in the last decade. A number of texts currently address these significant concerns, for example, Counseling the Culturally Different (Sue & Sue, 2008); Handbook of Multicultural Counseling ( Poterotto et l., 2009); and Handbook of Multicultural Counseling Competencies (Pope-Davis & Coleman, 2005). In their most recent editions, several of these books address more nuanced complexities of diversity, for example, the intersections of gender or social class with race-ethnicity. Meanwhile, other texts have addressed gender issues in psychology (Handbook of Counseling Women, Counseling Men), with some attention paid to racial-ethnic and other diversity concerns. Clearly the progression of scholarship in this field reflects the importance of incorporating multiple aspects of diversity within psychology. However, no book currently exists that fully addresses the complexities of race-ethnicity and gender together. Better understanding of the dual impact of race-ethnicity and gender on psychological functioning may lead to more effective conceptualizations of a number of mental health issues, such as domestic violence, addictions, health-related behaviors and achievement. Exploring the impact of race-ethnicity and gender also may provide a broader understanding of self-in-community, as this affects individuals, families and other social groups and work and career development. Topics of interest may include identity development, worldviews and belief systems, parenting styles, interventions for promoting resilience and persistence and strategies for enhancing more accurate diagnostic and treatment modalities. Today’s world is comprised of multiple and intersecting communities that remain in need of psychological models and interventions that support and promote both individual and collective mental health. We believe that utilizing unidimensional conceptual models (e.g. focusing solely on race-ethnicity or gender) no longer adequately addresses psychological concerns that are dynamic, complex and multi-faceted. The proposed Handbook will focus on timely topics which historically have been under-addressed for a number of diverse populations.
