Article Abstract
This study examined how ethnic identity relates to large-scale brain networks implicated in social interactions, social cognition, self-definition, and cognitive control. Group Iterative Multiple Model Estimation (GIMME) was used to create sparse, person-specific networks among the default mode and frontoparietal resting-state networks in a diverse sample of 104 youths aged 17-21. Links between neural density (i.e., number of connections within and between these networks) and ethnic identity exploration and resolution were evaluated in the full sample. Ethnic identity resolution was positively related to frontoparietal network density, suggesting that having clarity about one's ethnic group membership is associated with brain network organization reflecting cognitive control. These findings help fill a critical knowledge gap about the neural underpinnings of ethnic identity.

In this paper, we will present an analysis of three terms central to contemporary cultural critique: age, gender and migration, bringing them together in an approach we call "triangulation". We draw on Katy Gardner's ethnographic study of Bangladeshi migrants to London, Age, Narrative and Migration (2002), which addresses the three terms, to examine the interrelated identity constructions that are at stake in triangulation. In a second step, we analyze Monica Ali's novel Brick Lane (2003) as a pertinent literary example, in which aspects of age, gender, and migration come together in ways that may further illuminate and develop these as terms of cultural critique.

Over the last decade, a range of research has demonstrated the detrimental impacts of policies criminalizing migration ("crimmigration") on Latinx mental health. In this study, we seek to examine youth perspectives on how crimmigration policies affect Latinx adolescents' connections to Latinx identity, culture, and communities and the implications for Latinx youth mental health. We explored how immigration enforcement policies affect Latinx youths' mental health using photovoice with ten youth in a high-deportation county in Atlanta in 2022.

Introduction: The present research examined whether Black and Latine adolescents' academic persistence could be promoted through two novel strength-based reflection activities, providing them an opportunity to experience a sense of school belonging and to form meaningful connections between their racial/ethnic identity and their ideal future identity they aspired for.
Methods: A randomized-controlled experiment was conducted in the U.S.

Research carried out by Vanderbilt University's and Medical Center's federally-funded transdisciplinary, highly interactive GetPreCiSe Center in Excellence for ELSI research on genomic privacy-involving over 40 scholars across computer and social sciences, law, and the humanities-is summarized by dividing the work into five categories: (1) the nature of risks posed by collection of genetic data; (2) legal and scientific methods of minimizing those risks; (3) methods of safely increasing the scope of genetic databases; (4) public perceptions of genetic privacy; and (5) cultural depictions of genetic privacy. While this research shows that the risk of unauthorized re-identification is often over-stated, it also identifies possible ways privacy can be compromised. Several technical and legal methods for reducing privacy risks are described, most of which focus not on collection of the data, but rather on regulating data security, access, and use once it is collected.
