Measures
A list of measures and manipulations used in my research, including reliability and relevant citations
Measures of Fidelity. These measures are used in assessing the fidelity of the Pathways to Success Intervention
Interpretation of Experienced Ease and Difficulty Scales. These scales assess how people respond to experiences of ease and difficulty, consisting of four subscales; ease-as-possibility, ease-as-triviality, difficulty-as-importance, difficulty-as-impossibility. From Fisher, O. & Oyserman, D. (2017). Assessing Interpretations of Experienced Ease and Difficulty as Motivational Constructs. Motivation Science, 17, 1-31.

Racial-Ethnic Identity and Self-Schema Scales Racial-ethnic identity subscales (connectedness, awareness of racism, and embedded achievement) are provided, as are reliability (alpha and confirmatory factor analyses) and stability information in Oyserman, D., Brickman, D., & M. Rhodes (2007). Racial‐ethnic identity in adolescence: Content and consequences for African American and Latino youth. In. A. Fuligni (Ed.) Social Categories, Identities and Educational Participation. Pp91‐114. New York: Russell‐Sage. Racial-ethnic identity can be conceptualized as a self-schema with reliability and stability provided in Oyserman, D. (2008). Racial‐ethnic self‐schemas: Multi‐dimensional identity‐based motivation. Journal of Research on Personality, 42, 1186–1198.
Possible Selves & Plausibility of Possible Selves Coding Instructions (Spanish Translation) This provides measures for the close ended and open-ended possible selves. Open-ended has been validated in Oyserman, D., & Markus, H. (1990). Possible selves and delinquency. Journal ofPersonality and Social Psychology, 59(1), 112-125. Close-ended has been validated in Kemmelmeier, M. & Oyserman, D. (2001). Gendered influence of downward social comparisons on current and possible selves. Journal of Social Issues, 57, 129-148. Note the spanish translation has been piloted but not fully tested.
