We conducted three experiments (N = 1529) to test how White American adults on Prolific (Studies 1 and 2) and White American college students (Study 3) anticipate a conversation about race with a White or Black person who expresses a race-conscious or colorblind racial ideology. Across studies, participants interpreted a Black interaction partner's expression of colorblindness (vs. race-consciousness) as a stronger identity safety cue. In contrast, participants interpreted a White interaction partner's expression of race-consciousness (vs. colorblindness) as a stronger identity safety cue. However, participants’ internal motivation to respond without prejudice predicted more positive responses to the race-conscious ideology expression regardless of partner race. These findings highlight when White Americans are most likely to engage in race-relevant conversations necessary for anti-racist allyship.","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"82 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/josi.70066","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148237468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Color-evasive cues minimized the importance of group differences, multicultural cues highlighted their importance, and critical multicultural cues revealed how systemic forces shaped these differences. Compared to color-evasive cues, multicultural and critical multicultural cues increased identity safety by reducing bias expectations, and increased participants’ desire to learn about STEM inequity by increasing perceptions of instructor allyship. These links were especially true for those higher in stigma consciousness. Open-ended responses illuminated key nuances: critical multicultural cues elicited identity safety and perceptions of allyship, but also concerns about its relevance to a STEM course; multicultural cues elicited mixed reactions, including concerns about sincerity; and color-evasive cues surfaced the most threat and superficial appreciation. Together, the current study clarifies for whom and under what conditions diversity cues are most effective.","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"82 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/josi.70064","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148174016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The flag is thus regarded as an identity safety cue, conveying that LGBTQ+ people can expect to be safe where it is present. However, with its widespread use, LGBTQ+ people might question whether its use represents authentic inclusion or serves external motives of allyship. To explore these tensions, we conducted a qualitative study with LGBTQ+ participants (N = 76; Mage = 42; 65% White; U.S.-based). We identified contextual considerations, such as distinguishing between flag users’ personal choice versus commercial interests and recognizing behavioral (in)consistencies with the flag's values. We also identified desirable contexts for flag displays (e.g., public spaces, historically exclusive domains) and its complementary identity threat cues (e.g., Trump and Christianity symbols). We situate findings in the flag's historical and political roots.","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"82 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/josi.70062","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148174394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, digital media literacy interventions have had limited success translating these competencies into sociopolitical action and, in some cases, may even constrain youth online civic engagement. This sequential mixed-methods study examines factors shaping youth online critical action using panel survey data (n = 704), followed by qualitative re-analysis of interviews (n = 23) with youth aged 15–24 to further unpack patterns identified in the survey findings. Guided by critical consciousness and neo-ecological frameworks, quantitative findings indicate that exposure to digital media education, particularly instruction focused on researching and vetting online information, does not necessarily translate into online sociopolitical engagement. Qualitative findings further illuminate how youth weigh more emotional, relational, and cultural considerations when deciding whether to engage in online critical action, including internet norms, interpersonal relationships, and social movement dynamics. Together, these findings highlight limitations of digital media literacy approaches and underscore the need for interventions that account for the social and emotional contexts shaping youth civic participation online.","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"82 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/josi.70061","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148173797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on Freirean perspectives and contemporary scholarship, critical consciousness was opted to understand as comprising interconnected processes of critical reflection, agency, and action. While existing research had largely focused on youth in Western and urban contexts, less was known about how these processes unfold in Indigenous and non-Western settings. Adivasi adults navigate complex socio-political landscapes, challenging traditional boundaries and fostering a movement towards critical action. In the face of rapid urbanization, economic marginalization, and cultural disintegration, Adivasi adults emerged as vocal agents of change, confronting issues that threaten their identity, heritage, and rights. Using an ethnographic approach, this study includes participant observation, focus group discussions, and semi-structured interviews with Adivasi adults aged 18–35. Findings highlight three interrelated processes through which participants engage with social change: recognition of structural marginalization, collective agency for social transformation, and sustainability through the integration of cultural knowledge and practices. These processes illustrated how awareness of injustice was translated into culturally grounded and community-oriented forms of action. The study contributed to the literature by demonstrating that critical action in Adivasi contexts was deeply embedded in collective identities, cultural traditions, and ecological relationships. Rather than proposing a new theoretical model, the findings extend existing understandings of critical consciousness by illustrating how its core dimensions were expressed in Indigenous sociocultural settings and incorporated culturally grounded perspectives into research on social change.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"82 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148173759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Across two follow-up experimental studies (N = 639), omissions of commonly represented identities (race/ethnicity) were more noticeable and reduced anticipated departmental equity, whereas omissions of less-represented identities (body size) were less noticed and had no such effect (Study 2). Participants evaluated diversity statements less positively and attributed greater external motivation when body size was included, suggesting backlash against size inclusion. However, fat participants reported greater departmental interest and anticipated less fat stigma when body size was explicitly included (Study 3); diversity in faculty body size did not influence participants’ evaluations of departments or equity perceptions.","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"82 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/josi.70057","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148023939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
