Selected Book Chapters

These should absolutely be added. Right now someone viewing only your journal publications would have no idea you also contributed to scholarly books.

Research & Assessment Instruments

I would add this as its own section rather than mix these into publications. It differentiates you as someone who has actually developed measures, not simply conducted research using other people’s instruments.

Your CV identifies six instruments included in the Educational Testing Service database.

These are legitimate scholarly contributions, but they are secondary to your books, refereed articles, chapters, and instruments.

I would leave the Ke Alaka’i pieces, graduate handbook, and Babies Rock with Books materials off this particular page. They’re useful evidence for a comprehensive CV, but including them on a public-facing scholarship page actually dilutes the stronger record. Your CV documents those items separately as in-house publications.
