Question 1

______ describes a person who is a product of two distinct cultural groups and lives between two sets of cultural norms and expectations.&#10;A) Bicultural&#10;B) Biracial&#10;C) Bi-heritage&#10;D) Dual cultural

Accepted Answer

The term "bicultural" specifically refers to a person who has a cultural identity influenced by two distinct cultural groups. "Biracial" refers to a person with parents from different racial backgrounds, but does not necessarily indicate exposure to distinct cultural norms. "Bi-heritage" is not a commonly used term and may not convey the same meaning as "bicultural." "Dual cultural" could refer to any number of situations involving exposure to multiple cultures, but does not specifically describe a person who is a product of two distinct cultural groups.

Question 2

Since the early 2000s, what term has been most frequently used to describe a person who identifies as being mixed race and having multiple heritages?&#10;A) mixed heritage&#10;B) multicultural&#10;C) biracial&#10;D) multiracial

Accepted Answer

The term that has been most frequently used since the early 2000s to describe a person who identifies as being mixed race and having multiple heritages is "multiracial." This term encompasses individuals who have two or more racial backgrounds and is considered more inclusive than the previously used term "biracial."

Question 3

______ supports the myth of &#34;racial purity&#34; by assigning an individual of mixed racial heritage to the least desirable racial status.&#10;A) Multicultural rule&#10;B) Biracial status&#10;C) Two-drop rule&#10;D) One-drop rule

Accepted Answer

The One-drop rule supports the myth of "racial purity" by assigning an individual of mixed racial heritage to the least desirable racial status based on the belief that even one drop of African ancestry makes a person Black. This reinforces the idea of racial hierarchy and promotes the idea that those with purportedly "pure" ancestry are superior to those of mixed ancestry.

Question 4

Who does the hypodescent rule predominantly impact?&#10;A) Hispanic and Latino/as&#10;B) Asian Americans&#10;C) Caucasians&#10;D) African Americans

Accepted Answer

The hypodescent rule predominantly impacts African Americans, as it is a method of assigning individuals to a racial category based on their ancestry or heritage. African Americans have historically been subject to this rule and have been assigned to the "black" racial category, regardless of their other racial or ethnic ancestries.

Question 5

According to research, who is most likely to experience racial discrimination?&#10;A) Tammy, a biracial African American and Caucasian female, who has light skin&#10;B) Marcus, a biracial Native American and Caucasian male, who has dark skin&#10;C) Sarah, a biracial Asian American and Caucasian female, who has olive skin&#10;D) Jamal, a biracial African American and Caucasian male, who has dark skin

Accepted Answer

Research has shown that individuals with darker skin color, such as Jamal, are more likely to experience racial discrimination than those with lighter skin color. This is due to the belief in racial hierarchies, where darker skin is associated with inferiority and a lower social status. Additionally, Black individuals are more likely to experience racial discrimination in general, as opposed to other racial groups.

Question 6

When asking a biracial individual &#34;what are you?&#34;, this is an example of ______.&#10;A) racism&#10;B) microaggression&#10;C) supportive acknowledgement that the person does not look like one of the five main races&#10;D) relationship building between individuals of different cultures

Accepted Answer

This is an example of a microaggression, which can be defined as a subtle or indirect form of discrimination or prejudice towards a marginalized group of people. Asking someone "what are you?" implies that the person's racial identity is more important than their individual identity, and can make them feel marginalized or othered. It is important to refrain from these types of questions and instead focus on getting to know the individual as a person.

Question 7

In terms of identity development for multiple heritage individuals, what is a common challenge they experience?&#10;A) feeling a sense of not quite belonging to one particular group&#10;B) feelings of belonging to multiple groups&#10;C) feeling a sense of being marginalized by all groups they belong to&#10;D) feelings of strong family support as they navigate their identity

Accepted Answer

Multiple heritage individuals often struggle with feeling a sense of not quite belonging to one particular group due to their diverse cultural background. This can lead to difficulty in forming a strong sense of identity and feeling excluded from both cultures.

Question 8

What of the following terms describes &#34;the complexity of the human cultural experience and describes where a person's multiple identities come together?&#34;&#10;A) multidimensionality&#10;B) intersectionality&#10;C) multi-heritage identity&#10;D) identity development and integration

Accepted Answer

Intersectionality is the term that describes the complexity of the human cultural experience and where a person's multiple identities (such as race, gender, class, and sexuality) come together and intersect, affecting their experiences of oppression and privilege.

Question 9

What is an important caution that clinicians should take when working with a multiracial client?&#10;A) avoid discussing the client's family&#10;B) avoid acknowledging and asking about racial identity&#10;C) avoid the assumption that the individual's mental health problems stem from their racial identity&#10;D) avoid the view that the client is &#34;marginalized&#34;

Question 10

According to the textbook, all of the following therapeutic modalities have been suggested to be used with multiracial clients except ______.&#10;A) feminist therapy&#10;B) strengths-based therapy&#10;C) solution-focused therapy&#10;D) narrative therapy

Accepted Answer

The textbook suggests that feminist therapy can be particularly helpful for multiracial and multicultural clients as it considers societal and cultural factors in the client's experience. Thus, all of the listed therapeutic modalities, except for feminist therapy, have been suggested as useful for multiracial clients.
