Research Abstract
The premise of my programmatic research agenda has primarily focused on BIPOC student experiences in higher education. Working consistently to validate the psychosociocultural (PSC) model, I examine BIPOC student issues in higher education, their trajectories, and PSC factors that influence their persistence and retention. With a psychological emphasis, I study BIPOC college experiences with a unique cultural lens highlighting issues in areas in the literature that have received limited attention. Uniquely, I focus on understanding non-cognitive factors and psychosociocultural processes influencing academic persistence. As the literature takes a deficit approach on BIPOCs - often focusing on cognitive factors (e.g., GPA) or the output (e.g., graduation), I take a strength-based approach reviewing the dimensionality of educational processes while examining students’ strength-based values and beliefs.
Trained in the fields of psychology and education, I pull from the literature in counseling and multicultural psychology, Chicanx/Latinx psychology, and higher education. Consequently, my work offers education research a developmental and contextual approach to student processes, persistence, and college satisfaction. The findings have confirmed the unique and collective interplay of the psychological, social, and cultural dimensions for undergraduates. Both a quantitative and qualitative researcher, my work includes the validation of existing scales in the field of psychology for BIPOC undergraduates, the exploration of new concepts for educational processes, and the creation of new scales for the field (taking an emic approach to educational processes). Last, bridging research and theory in higher education and counseling psychology, my scholarship has influenced the field of multicultural psychology, counseling practices, and student outreach and retention programming.
