“…In the 2000 census, 6.8 million people (2.4%) actively endorsed two racial categories (U.S. Census Bureau, 2001). The Asian American population has high numbers of multiracial individuals: In the 2000 census, multiracial individuals made up 14.9% of the total 12.5% Asian American/Asian Pacific American population in the United States (Williams-Leon, 2003). Even higher rates are evident among the Japanese American population, with 39% more multiracial Japanese American births than monoracial Japanese American births according to the 1990 census (Root, 1998).…”

In this study the authors explored the relation of physical appearance, perception of group belonging, and perception of group exclusion to racial/ethnic identity in multiracial Japanese European Americans. Results indicate that physical appearance and social variables of sense of belonging and exclusion related to one monoracial racial/ethnic group significantly predicted self-identity with the corresponding monoracial group. There was also a significant relationship between Japanese American identity and multiracial appearance and social variables. Feelings of exclusion were shown to be the primary influence on all three racial/ethnic identities.

“…Since Asian Americans have the highest rate of marriage outside their racial or ethnic group (i.e., outmarriage) of any racial minority, interracial Asian Americans make up a significant portion of this growing interracial population (Khanna, 2004;Kitano, Yeung, Chai, & Hatanaka, 1984;S. M. Lee & Yamanaka, 1990;Pascoe, 1991;Williams-Leó n, 2003).…”
