I am seeking your help as I scout out participants for a research study I am engaging in as part of my doctoral studies at the University of Florida’s College of Education; Teachers, Schools, and Society program.
Please help me to share this post so that I can expand my reach for possible candidates! The qualifications are listed below:
I’m interested in gathering the stories of people who persisted academically despite adversity during adolescence. I believe by hearing the voices of people who persisted through adversity during the critical developmental stage of adolescence, we will discover more about the people, programs, resources, and supports that helped them develop their resiliency. I’m looking for 3-5 adults who …
1. Identified with multiple layers of diverse demographics during their childhood (gender, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, living arrangement, parental education, etc.)
2. Experienced adversity during adolescence (roughly 12-16 years old)
3. Pursued and accomplished post-secondary education, anything beyond high school diploma or GED. (Completed certification, licensure, vocational training, college/university degree, etc.)
4. Are willing to share their stories!
For those of you who see this post and do not know me, the link below is my story that I shared with over 4500 participants in the summer of 2022. If after viewing my story, you would like to share your story of resilience and persistence through adversity you had as an adolescent, I encourage you to complete the preliminary participant information questions to see if you might be a qualifying candidate for this research. This study is also open to my friends, colleagues, and former students!
