Background: Traditionally, SREE has traditionally focused on examining the effects of educational interventions with rigorous causal analysis. However, studies of racial/ethnic inequities in education do not always lend themselves to experimental or even quasi-experimental designs. Further, well formulated descriptive studies can provide crucial…

As the U.S. and international multiracial populations have increased, so has research in this area. Despite a multitude of studies about the unique struggles of being multiracial, little empirical data has been published about specific strategies that multiracial individuals use to navigate a monoracial (single-race)-oriented society. In this…
