note = "Funding Information: Another collaboration to expand the contribution of my scholarship has included considering a broader range of outcomes for young people. Recent collaborations with colleagues have led to an investigation of connections between academic motivation and outcomes relevant to physical health. These directions were initially inspired and eventually supported by efforts to receive external funding from foundations such as the William T. Grant Foundation and the Russell Sage Foundation. We have since initiated longitudinal experimental studies in an effort to build upon research demonstrating the potential unexpected negative consequences of academic persistence and achievement for the health of individuals from low-SES backgrounds (e.g., Miller, Yu, Chen, & Brody, 2015). My coauthors and I have also published articles in an attempt to generate more interest in this area of research on the challenges of upward socioeconomic mobility for health and well-being (Destin, 2018b; Destin & Debrosse, 2017; Destin, Rheinschmidt-Same, & Richeson, 2017). These efforts to broaden research through collaboration can generate scholarship that is more relevant to people{\textquoteright}s complex, lived experiences, specifically by including representative samples and by considering a more holistic range of life outcomes.",
