| Popis: | Intersectional approaches for understanding identity have gained momentum in the social sciences. Black adolescent males are often perceived as threatening, underachieving, and hyper-masculine, which is reinforced through media outlets and psychological research that portray them as a monolith rather than a heterogeneous group with multiple intersecting identities. This cross-sectional study of 70 Black adolescent males between 14 and 18 years old simultaneously explores their race and gender identities together and associations with self-concept (total and school). Results demonstrated that participants reported a combination of feminine and masculine gender roles, rather than hyper-masculine. A canonical correlation analysis found that Black racial identity attitudes and gender roles simultaneously contributed to significant relationships with total and school self-concept. Study limitations and future directions for research and practice are discussed. |
