Transforming the Narrative on Latino Populations When & How to Use Comparison Groups in Research

In this webinar, the National Research Center on Hispanic Children & Families (Center) discusses considerations related to deciding when to center research around Latino populations and when comparisons by racial and ethnic groups are most appropriate. Drs. Cynthia García Coll, William Lopez, Gaby Barajas-Gonzalez share their expertise and insights on how comparison group research has evolved over time and considerations for implementing this research design. The panelists also highlight how they have used comparison groups in their own work focused on Latino populations. The discussion is guided by a strengths-based perspective that highlights assets of Latino communities.
