About the Course

Past research has indicated that BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) transgender individuals experience higher psychological distress than their majority culture peers. This is a quantitative research study that compares rates of gender minority stress and psychological stress between/among BIPOC individuals and white peers. The authors hypothesize that psychological distress will vary among groups withing the BIPOC community.

This course is based on the reading-based online article, Double Jeopardy: Minority Stress and the Influence of Transgender Identity and Race-ethnicity created by Krystina Millar, B.A and Caroline Brooks, M.A. in 2022.
