Abstract

In this chapter we describe the application of several research methodologies for carrying out socially just research via quantitative, qualitative and mixed methodologies. The chapter starts with an introduction to research, ethics and health disparities, and makes the case for "queering" research in psychology. Critical Race Theory, Queer Theory and Intersectionality are discussed. Next, a hypothetical case study is presented that involves a collaboration between María, a fourth-year doctoral student in Counseling Psychology, and a community partner in Arizona. Together, they plan four different approaches to study the impact of intersectional stigma on mental health among Latinx sexual and gender diverse individuals with a specific focus on whether social support helps to lessen the detrimental impact of discrimination on mental health.
