The Cambridge Handbook of Ethnic and Racial Discrimination and Youth Development

Jan 30, 2026

The Cambridge Handbook of Ethnic and Racial Discrimination and Youth Development, edited by Dr. Tiffany Yip, will be published in May 2026

How is ethnic and racial discrimination impacting our young people?

Scholars around the world have found that discriminatory interactions of

this nature have detrimental impacts on youth and their development. In

this handbook, the world's leading experts on this topic examine the

current state of the science, presenting current research and tracing

foundational theories, empirical findings, multilevel methods, and

intervention strategies for children, adolescents, and young adults.

Covering multiple ethnic and racial groups across the United States and

globally, chapters highlight both universal and distinct experiences and

provide an in-depth overview of how race-related stressors affect youth

outcomes. The text also offers clear conceptual frameworks,

methodological guidance, and future-facing strategies to strengthen

research, policy, and practice. With its expansive international scope and

interdisciplinary depth, it is an essential resource for graduate students and

scholars across developmental psychology, child development, human

development and family studies, sociology, and ethnic studies.
