“…Both quantitative critical race theory (QuantCrit) and quantitative criticalism (referred to here and elsewhere as CritQuant) represent emerging frameworks in educational and other social research domains whose aims are to revise and repurpose quantitative methods for more critical and equitable outcomes. These frameworks have been summarized elsewhere, so I provide only a brief introduction here situate some of their challenges (see Castillo & Babb, 2023;Diemer et al, 2023;Frisby, 2024;Tabron & Thomas, 2023).…”

“…Stage and colleagues grounded their application of quantitative methods in the critical qualitative research of Kincheloe & McLaren (1994), becoming early voices for ideas such as the subjectivity of quantitative methods and the use of quantitative methods to answer critical questions or social transformation (Baez, 2007). This work was expounded on in a second special issue of New Horizons (Stage & Wells, 2015), and has seen more recent attention by scholars seeking to newly apply guiding principles to CritQuant akin to those found in QuantCrit (Diemer et al, 2023). Aside from the difference in intellectual tradition, a defining feature of CritQuant that separates it from QuantCrit is that it is theory-agnostic.…”

“…The development and application of quantitative methods in social science research is bound to a racist history and scientific paradigm that some argue render them antithetical to antiracist and other critical research aims in education (Carbado & Roithmayr, 2014;Carruthers, 1972;Habermas, 1972). Others, including those who have documented this history, suggest that quantitative methods can be revised, repurposed, and reutilized for educational research on racial and other forms of social justice (e.g., Diemer et al, 2023;Gillborn et al, 2018;Stage, 2015;Zuberi, 2001;). These ideas have gradually resulted in the emergence of two distinct critical quantitative research frameworks: CritQuant (derived from quantitative criticalism) and QuantCrit (quantitative Critical Race Theory; QuantCRiT).…”

“…Finally, I offer additional affordances of Bayesian statistics in education research and conclude that Bayesian statistics offer a promising avenue through which these tensions may begin seeing some resolution. Before I begin, however, I offer a positionality statement to situate myself as a person and a scholar in relation to this research (Diemer et al, 2023;Castillo & Gillborn, 2022;Hampton et al, 2021).…”

Over the last two decades, two frameworks have emerged that combine critical theories with quantitative methodology. These frameworks are QuantCRiT – a quantitative instantiation of Critical Race Theory – and CritQuant, a more critical theory-neutral framework grown out of quantitative criticalism. Both frameworks offer ways in which quantitative scholars can strengthen the criticality of their research by incorporating critical theories such as Critical Race Theory into their research questions, design, data, analysis, and interpretation. Yet, as long as these frameworks continue to use traditional quantitative approaches to analysis, neither escapes the philosophical, methodological, or historical challenges that plague the traditional framework. This paper argues that adopting a Bayesian statistical framework, as opposed to traditional framework may provide some useful inroads. To the extent that Bayesian statistics address these challenges, it is suggested that a Bayesian approach may be more suitable for critical quantitative research in education.

“…To do this, we must include elements of CC unique to being white such as recognizing the privileges and worldviews developed through white socialization. We adopt a critical quantitative (CritQuant) framework and review the associated literature (Diemer et al, 2024). Thereafter, we review the CC and white antiracist allyship literature to develop a set of items aligned with the tripartite model of critical reflection, motivation, and action pivotal for racially privileged individuals.…”

This study details the development and validation of the White Critical Consciousness Index (WhiCCI) as a tool for measuring the critical consciousness (CC) of white Americans. Since its inception into academic literature, scholars have debated whether the development of CC in privileged populations is compatible with the original CC philosophy. We argue that it is compatible, and that white and other privileged individuals also have a responsibility to developing their critical consciousness and contributing to equitable social change. However, from the vantage point of Freire’s oppressor, CC must look different. The WhiCCI uses items informed by the critical consciousness and white anti-racist allyship literature to propose a novel instrument measuring CC in this population. Using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, this study analyzes data from over 2000 more privileged white Americans and arrives at an instrument aligned with the tripartite model of CC: Critical Reflection, Critical Motivation, and Critical Action.
