“…Many of these emerging theories followed the Eurocentric stage model design templates of early identity development theories (i.e., Erikson's 1963 theory of psychosocial development), which presumes a unidirectional passage through a series of innately determined psychological stages (LaFromboise, Coleman, & Gerton, 1993). The use of Eurocentric psychoanalytic stage models as templates often deemphasized the importance of contextual factors and social realities that affect and impact the identity development of multiracial individuals (Hall, 1997;Miller, 1992). Subsequently, these models ignored the contributing ecological factors impacting identity development, thereby reemphasizing the potential psychological problems mixed-race individuals may encounter along their developmental path (Poston, 1990).…”

Using a social work developmental lens, this qualitative study explored some of the numerous social and environmental factors that shape a multiracial individual's cultural identity. Results from transcript analysis portray the cultural identity of multiracial persons as significantly influenced by (1) (3) the racial climate of the school and community.

“…For example, Poston (1990) posited that mixed Black/White persons transcend through five developmental stages, three of which include: denial, appreciation and integration. Unfortunately some of the early multiracial models ignored the contributing ecological factors impacting identity development, and consequently pathologized the multiracial experience (see Gibbs, 1987) (Hall, 1997;Miller, 1992;Poston, 1990). In addition, the majority of these models focused exclusively on the Black/White multiracial experience, and thus were unable to account for the experiences of other mixed-race persons.…”

The growing presence and visibility of mixed race persons in the US demands that social workers critically examine and understand the complexity of multiracial identity. This qualitative investigation examined the narratives of ten multiracial adults about their identity experiences living as multiracial persons. Utilizing paradigmatic analysis of narratives, five major themes emerged. Four of these themes correspond to categories found in existing multiracial scholarship, and include: (1) Shifting racial/ethnic expressions; (2) Racial/ethnic ambiguity; (3) Feeling like an outsider; and (4) Seeking community. The final theme, (5) Racial resistance, contributes new knowledge to our understanding of how multiracial individuals respond to societal pressures to conform to traditional means of categorizing others by race. Findings from this study confirm a collective multiracial experience; one with direct ties to the social and environmental pressures associated with having a multifaceted identity in a color-conscious society. Practice implications and directions for future research are offered.
