Perceptions and experiences of (people with) unconventional identities
Psychology has long focused on social identities and their critical role in defining the self. However, the majority of identity-related findings stems from research on traditional identities (monoracial, cisgender, heterosexual). Considering the relative dearth of research from the full range of identities encompassed in society (e.g., multiracial, transgender, bisexual), this special issue collection of papers (a) highlights the experiences and perceptions of people with non-traditional identities; (b) argues for research to represent modern-day demographics; and (c) discusses publication challenges.
