Semistructured interviews were conducted individually with 9 Black\/White biracial children and their parents (a total of 6 families). Major findings from this study tend to run counter to problems conjectured in the counseling and related literature. For example, in contrast to deficit models, participant children and adolescents did not appear to perceive themselves as &#8220;marginal&#8221; in 2 cultures. The majority of participant children, adolescents, and adults demonstrated sensitivity to the views, cultures, and values of both the Black and White communities. Developmental transitions associated with different ages were identified. Emergent themes yielded hypotheses with implications for future research.<\/p>\n<p>Read or purchase the article <a href=\"http:\/\/psycnet.apa.org\/journals\/cou\/40\/2\/221.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Racial identity in biracial children: A qualitative investigation Journal of Counseling Psychology Volume 40, Number 2, (April 1993) pages 221-231 DOI: 10.1037\/0022-0167.40.2.221 Christine Kerwin Joseph G.
