Adolescent Religiosity As a Predictor of
Well-Being In Young Adulthood
Religiosity has been identified as a significant predictor of well-being during adolescence. Much less is known about whether the benefits of adolescent religiosity extend into early adulthood. This study explores the association between religiosity in adolescence and well-being in early adulthood and whether the associations vary by sex or race. (PI: Theda Rose)

Psychosocial Problems, Positive Development, and Educational Outcomes
Despite a reduction in racial gaps, educational achievement remains a major public health crisis for black adolescents. The study explores how developmental assets mediate and moderate relations between psychosocial problems and educational outcomes among black youth, while considering the effect of contextual factors. Further, the study investigates whether these relations vary by cultural factors (ethnicity, racial socialization), sex, and younger versus older youth. Study findings will improve precision in identifying culturally relevant targets of interventions designed to promote better educational outcomes among black youth and address racial disparities in adolescent educational outcomes.
