Abstract

ABSTRACT In this Introduction to the Special Issue entitled “New Directions for Research on Colorism Across the Lifespan for Research in Human Development,” we offer suggestions for extending colorism science to several areas. In particular, we recommend that researchers continue to advance interdisciplinary and multimethod studies, as this has contributed important knowledge about colorism to date. Moving forward, we suggest that researchers investigate colorism within families and in developmental periods, such as infancy and childhood that have received relatively limited attention compared to adulthood. We also encourage efforts to developing programs and policies that eradicate colorism.
