Abstract: Singular understandings of racialized experiences are insufficient to advance our understanding of mental health disparities. Perceived racial misclassification (PRM), a perceived discrepancy between one’s socially assigned and self-assigned racial identity, is one such emergent culturally relevant stressor with significant health implications.
