Development and Validation of the Model Minority Stereotype-Response Scale
The Counseling Psychologist, Ahead of Print.
The model minority stereotype (MMS) has had a direct and significant impact on Asian Americans and their internal processes, like other stereotypes attributed to a group of people (e.g., stereotype threat; Steele & Aronson, 1995). In this article, we describe the development and validation of a measure named the Model Minority Stereotype-Response Scale (MMS-RS), which is designed to assess the responses Asian Americans experience when faced with the MMS to unveil how the stereotype impacts them. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs) supported a two-factor structure of the MMS-RS, namely negative responses to and positive endorsement of the MMS. Alongside the reliability estimates, the evidence for construct validity demonstrated that the MMS-RS has good psychometric properties. Interestingly, both negative reaction to and the positive endorsement of the MMS were found to coexist. Overall, the MMS-RS is a useful instrument for scholars who are interested in researching, intervening, and advocating for Asian Americans’ experiences with the MMS.

Changes in Health and Well-Being of Care Aides in Nursing Homes From a Pre-Pandemic Baseline in February 2020 to December 2021
Journal of Applied Gerontology, Ahead of Print.
Nursing homes were profoundly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, influencing work outcomes of care aides who provide the most direct care. We compared care aides’ quality of work life by conducting a repeated cross-sectional analysis of data collected in February 2020 and December 2021 from a stratified random sample of urban nursing homes in two Canadian provinces. We used two-level random-intercept repeated-measures regression models, adjusting for demographics and nursing home characteristics. 2348 and 1116 care aides completed the survey in February 2020 and December 2021, respectively. The 2021 sample had higher odds of reporting worked short-staffed daily to weekly in the previous month than the 2020 sample. The 2021 sample also had a small but significant drop in professional efficacy and mental health. Despite the worsening changes, our findings suggest that this workforce may have withstood the pandemic better than might be expected.
