This project aims to evaluate the mental health impacts of racial, sexual, and gender microaggressions and understand factors that may mitigate the negative mental health costs of discrimination among racial, gender, and sexual minorities. The project consists of two phases: a) a one-time comprehensive battery of self-report questionnaires; and, b) a brief daily diary survey to track discriminatory experiences and mood over a one-month period.
