IDENTITY PATTERNS
A single identity may be neither possible nor desirable for mixed-
race students.
Renn (2004) described five fluid and
non-exclusive “identity patterns” all of which she viewed as healthy.
All but eight of the fifty-six students interviewed identified in more than one way.
Monoracial Multiple Monoracial
Multiracial Extraracial
Situational
48%
MONORACIAL IDENTITY
The individual chooses one of his
or her heritage backgrounds to identify with.

ed]
The individual elects an identity that is neither one heritage nor another, but
of a distinct “multicultural” group on
par with other racial categories.
EXTRARACIAL IDENTITY
25% None of the students who choose this
identity choose this one solely.
Marisa
[I don’t Check Any Boxes]
Student holds an extraracial identity by deconstructing race or opting out of identification with the U.S. racial categories.
SITUATIONAL IDENTITY
61%
The ability to read contexts and construct racial identity in relation to specific contexts is a highly evolved skill requiring emotional maturity and cognitive complexity (Renn, 2004).
