The Journal of Latino/Latin American Studies (JOLLAS) has recently published an issue online, including six articles that focus on socio-emotional development of children and adolescents with a focus on family and peer relations, specifically in Latin America. Its guest editors are Ellyn C. Bass and Jonathan B. Santo from the University of Nebraska at Omaha and Lina María Saldarriaga from Red PaPaz, Bogota, Colombia.
For this issue, the goal was to build a context-specific foundation of knowledge which accurately represents the Latin American experiences and perspectives of socio-emotional development. Ultimately, the research contained in this issue will inform discussions of issues relating to socio-emotional development among children and adolescents, including awareness-raising and policy-building efforts, as well as to stimulate further research among Latin American populations.
JOLLAS is an online journal published by UNO's Office of Latino/Latin American Studies (OLLAS).
More information about the journal is available here. Journal articles are also available through the Criss Library.
