Environmental Influences on the Development of Female College Students Who Identify as Multiracial/Biracial-Bisexual/Pansexual

Abstract: Using Renn's (2000, 2004) ecology of college student development model as a theoretical framework, I report and discuss the findings of my study involving 6 female college students who identify as multiracial/biracial-bisexual/ pansexual. I describe how these findings validate Renn's model, specifically discussing how the campus environment influenced the students' identity development in relation to three themes that emerged from my study: trying on, negotiating self, and finding fit. Finally, I discuss the i… Show more

“…Yet, in this past decade, scholars have taken a particular interest in understanding the experiences of those who identify with identities outside of the LGB umbrella. For example, researchers have steadily included pansexual students in qualitative (King, 2011; Vaccaro and Newman, 2017) and quantitative studies (Garvey et al, 2018c). Furthermore, researchers have sought to comprehend how asexual collegians navigate experiences during college (Mollet and Lackman, 2018).…”

“…Research with mixed-race people has traditionally utilized almost exclusively heterosexual samples and, with few exceptions (see Buggs, 2020; King, 2011; Thompson, 2000; Waring, 2013) has theoretically centered heterosexuality as if it were the only sexual orientation. The lack of research attention to LGBTQ+ mixed-race people means that critical mixed race studies (CMRS) theories about the intersection of race, gender, and sexuality potentially do not apply to mixed-race people who are LGBTQ+.…”

“…Gender identity was evenly distributed among participants, with 49.3% identifying as female, 48.6% identifying as male, and 2.1% identifying as “something else.” Approximately 9% identified as transgender. The majority of the sample (87.3%) identified as homosexual (lesbian or gay male), 11.8% identified as bisexual, and 1.9% reported they were pansexual (attracted to all genders and biological sexes; A. R. King, 2011).…”
