This semester we had the pleasure of hosting the second multidisciplinary Multiracial research conference @RutgersU. It was amazing to have leading scholars convene to discuss topics such as Multiracial socialization, health, discrimination, and identity.

In our recently published study, we set out to understand what questions and uncertainties young people have about sex. We found that girls had questions and concerns about whether sex was painful, while boys had heard that sex was pleasurable.

Shout out to the Lay Theories of Prejudice Lab for leading this important work.@KimEChaney @mdphamm

[CRIS Lab @CRISLab_RU]

Another new paper this month 🌈🌈. Essentially, we found that multiply stigmatized people (especially LGBTQ+ women of color) endorsed a lay theory of generalized prejudice and intraminority coalitions MORE than singly stigmatized and non-stigmatized people.https://t.co/ikQAXDR5D1

[CRIS Lab @CRISLab_RU]

New paper alert 👇 👇. In short, people with stigmatized identities infer A LOT from disagreeable traits (a person’s level of prejudice, hierarchy endorsing beliefs). And it’s not merely about likeability!
