About
Brandon Yoo is an associate professor of Asian Pacific American studies in the School of Social Transformation and the Sanford School of Social and Family Dynamics. He is an affiliate faculty of counseling and counseling psychology and the Department of Psychology. His background in counseling psychology frames both his research and teaching interests. In particular, he is interested in examining unique racialized risks, resiliency, and resistance, and their impact on the mental health of diverse marginalized communities (including Asian Americans and multiracials).
Current Work
Within the framework of studying racial risks, resilience, and resistance, my research covers broad topics including perceived racism and stereotypes, internalization of the model minority myth, acculturation/enculturation, racial and ethnic identity, racial and ethnic socialization, critical consciousness, and measurement development. Some of my current research projects include focus on multiracial risks, resilience and socialization, and development of the Asian American racial identity measure and support for Black Lives Matter measure.
