Abstract Title: Analyzing Experiences of Multiply Marginalized Physics Students With the Critical Physics Identity Framework
Abstract Type: Contributed Poster Presentation
Abstract: In our research we investigate the lived experiences of multiply marginalized physics students to better understand the ways their identities as physicists have developed throughout their time studying at an HSI. The stories told by participants from TXST described the different environments where they felt that they thrived, particularly multiple positive impacts from the Physics LA Program. We analyze these narratives using the Critical Physics Identity framework to determine the characteristics of environments that help build strong physics identities and in what ways LA participation overlaps with participants' racialized and/or queer experiences studying physics.
