Abstract
This critical scoping review examined a decade of mental health and wellbeing outcome research inclusive of subsamples of multiracial participants (or persons identifying with two or more different racial groups) in order to draw initial conclusions about the contemporary state of multiracial mental health. Mental health disparities research inclusive of multiracial subsamples appears to be trending upward. Studies that used subsample analyses offer initial evidence that multiracial persons are at greater risk to experience worsened mental health in comparison to white monoracial peers, and that this disparity is compounded for multiracial persons from gender and/or sexual minoritized groups. This review uncovered numerous theoretical and methodological inconsistencies that constrained existing research from advancing more meaningful understandings of how white supremacy and systemic mono/racism differently impact the mental health and wellbeing of multiracial persons in the USA. Implications for future mental health disparities research inclusive of multiracial subsamples are presented.
