Methodological Issues when
Conducting Research on LGBT
      People of Color

Juan Battle, Graduate Center of the
    City University of New York
Lack of large,
national LGBT data
       sets
Most Other Studies…
<One Group>
<One Gender>
<Couples>
<Ethnographic>
<Easier to Measure>
<Sample(s) Looked the Same>
<Cheaper to obtain>
Methological Challenges w/
Collecting Data on LGBT POC
        Populations
Probability Samples Need
  Population Estimates
Sexuality is fluid … especially for LGBT people of color
Not to take this into account is
     (inadvertently) racist.
Sexual, Racial and Ethnic Identity
Sexual, Racial and Ethnic Identity
Sexual, Racial and Ethnic Identity
Solutions…
I. Non-probability sampling
  1. Purposive sampling  sample
    based
  2. Quota sampling  fill cells
II. Know What You’re Measuring
  1. Identity
  2. Behavior
  3. Attraction
III. Add Sexuality Question(s) to
  (National) Surveys
Thank you for listening!
Thank you for listening!
Random sampling doesn’t
work; No variance.

Methodological Issues when Conducting Research on LGBT People of Color

Editor's Notes

  1. Focused primarily on one racial/ethnic group (Diaz) or couples (Census), and all have been smaller.
  2. Other studies on LGBT people have focused on single racial/ethnic groups, one gender, or gender ID, or on those in couples, or on smaller populations, and were generally done with “easier to capture” or easier to study subpopulations.
