Asshoff, Roman; Heuckmann, Benedikt; Ryl, Mike; Reinhardt, Klaus – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2022
Bed bugs are on the rise and are increasingly perceived as harmful parasites.

In this quasi-experimental study, we examine how different…

Self-stigma is a phenomenon in which negative public stereotypes about mental illness are internalized and can undermine help-seeking. Unfortunately, little is known about how self-stigmatization relates to positive well-being indicators among youth. A sample of 134 high school students completed established measures of self-stigma, well-being,…

Maura Shramko; Amy L. Gower; Barbara J. McMorris; Marla E. Eisenberg; G. Nic Rider – International Journal of Bullying Prevention, 2023
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer (LGBQ) youth experience more heterosexist bullying victimization than their straight peers, which contributes to mental health disparities. However, LGBQ youth may simultaneously experience other types of bias-based bullying (e.g., racist, cis-sexist, and able-ist bullying). Informed by intersectionality theory,…

Researchers, policymakers and educators are increasingly focused on the accurate identification, assessment, and referral of English learners (ELs) with disabilities, stemming in part from both the under- and over-identification of ELs for special education services, as compared to non-ELs identified for these services.
