    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Feng Wang et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2026

    Introduction: Recent studies suggest that exposure to racist online interactions and content may be associated with depressive symptoms and suicide risk among racially minoritized individuals. Despite the hate and violence easily encountered online, individuals use social media platforms to engage with their mental health concerns and seek support. Hence, the current study aimed to explore whether online mental health engagement would buffer the …

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Lianne Jean Wong et al.•ARTICLE•Family Process•2025

    Asian Americans, historically oppressed and influenced by White supremacist norms, may internalize anti‐Blackness (beliefs of behaviors that minimize, marginalize, or devalue Black individuals) as they navigate White‐dominated environments to survive and seek acceptance. However, there is limited research addressing the intergenerational socialization of anti‐Blackness within Asian American communities and its impact as a barrier to cross‐racial …

  • Marginalization from Covid-19 Anti-Asian Racism and Smoking among Asian American Emerging Adults

    Open Access•Michele J Wong, Brian Taehyuk Keum et al.•ARTICLE•Race and Social Problems•2025

    COVID-19 anti-Asian racism may be a risk factor for tobacco product use among Asian American emerging adults. In particular, unjust blame and ostracization associated with oppressive COVID-19 anti-Asian racism narratives may be associated with tobacco product use through unmet interpersonal needs. Accordingly, we examined whether the link between COVID-19 anti-Asian racism and tobacco product use could be explained by perceived burdensomeness and…

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Brendesha M Tynes•ARTICLE•Journal of Racial and Ethnic…•2025•References: 51

    Objectives Racism is an important social determinant that disproportionately increases the risk of smoking among Black emerging adults. In today's digital era, Black emerging adults encounter online racism, including online racial discrimination (direct and vicarious) and exposure to racist content on systemic racism and race-related hate crimes. Yet, little is known about the relationship between online racism and smoking motives among Black eme…

    Discrimination can contribute to adverse mental health outcomes among individuals in romantic partnerships. However, research has yet to examine how differences in partner race/ethnicity can shape the link between gendered racial microaggressions, an intersectional form of discrimination, and depressive symptoms among Asian American women. Accordingly, we assessed the link between gendered racial microaggressions and depressive symptoms, and whet…

  • Benefits and harms of social media use: A latent profile analysis of emerging adults

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Yuwei Wang et al.•ARTICLE•Current Psychology•2023

    The rise in social media use among emerging adults in the United States has been well-documented, but researchers are still working on identifying how the type—not just the frequency—of use impacts psychological well-being. We identified “profiles” of social media use among young adults based on the frequency and purposes of use, and examined their associations with benefits and harms to psychosocial well-being, using data from 2828 incoming unde…

  • Distress disclosure and psychological Distress among men: The role of feeling understood and loneliness

    Brian Taehyuk Keum, J Brady et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Counseling Psychology•2018•Cited by: 26•References: 18

    Asian American women's (AAW's) mental health issues have received growing public attention; recent statistics suggest alarmingly high suicide rates among AAW. Yet, little research has examined the nuanced oppression that AAW face and the daily effects of compounded racism and sexism contributing to their mental health issues. Applying the intersectionality and microaggressions framework, we developed the Gendered Racial Microaggressions Scale for…

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Xu Li•ARTICLE•The Counseling Psychologist•2022•Cited by: 7•References: 22

    We examined the potential anticipatory response (rumination, vigilance) associated with online racism and its impact on psychological distress, loneliness, and alcohol use severity. With a sample of 407 racial minority adults, we conducted a path analysis to examine the indirect relation of online racism on our outcome variables via online racism-related rumination and offline racism-related vigilance. Online racism was significantly linked to ps…

  • Covid-19 Racism, Depressive Symptoms, Drinking to Cope Motives, and Alcohol Use Severity Among Asian American Emerging Adults

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Andrew Young Choi•ARTICLE•Emerging Adulthood•2022•Cited by: 6•References: 26

    The COVID-19 pandemic has incited widespread anti-Asian racism, which is linked to numerous behavioral health consequences including depressive symptoms. As racism-induced depressive symptoms are linked to coping-related alcohol use and because alcohol-related problems represent a significant public health concern in this population, we investigated whether COVID-19 racism predicted alcohol use severity through depressive symptoms and drinking to…

  • Congruence and discrepancy in Asian American women's perception and stress appraisal of gendered racial microaggressions: Relationships with depressive symptoms and internalized racism

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Michele J Wong•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2022•Cited by: 5•References: 28

    Prior research demonstrates significant links between discrimination and mental health by assessing either encounters with or stress appraisal of discrimination. However, research has yet to examine the dynamic interplay between frequency and stress appraisal (e.g., high frequency-low stress appraisal) and their linkage to depressive symptoms. Using a sample of 309 Asian American women ( M age = 22.81, SD = 0.26), we used a polynomial regression …

    Men are reluctant to seek psychological help as doing so may label them as weak and vulnerable. Thus, we tested whether a first-person storytelling video could buffer men’s self-stigma of seeking help associated with traditional masculinity ideology. Adult men ( N = 396; M age = 35.62) were randomly assigned and exposed to one of three conditions: (1) control (nothing), (2) male-sensitive brochure, (3) male-sensitive first-person storytelling vid…

  • Online racism, depressive and anxiety symptoms, coping-related drinking motives, and alcohol use severity among Black, Latina/o/x, and Asian emerging adults

    Online racism has been associated with alcohol-related coping, likely to deal with mental health symptoms that arise from experiencing racial discrimination in online settings. Thus, we examined online racism as a risk factor for alcohol-related problems by examining depressive/anxiety symptoms and coping-related drinking motives as mediators among Black, Latina/o/x, and Asian emerging adults in the U.S. We hypothesized that online racism would b…

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Emily M Waters et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Community Psychology•2023•Cited by: 1•References: 56

    Extant literature suggests that racism is associated with difficult emotional reactions and feelings of social disconnect among White individuals. These feelings of social disconnect may be particularly salient in today's digital era in which racism against racial minority individuals is conveniently and frequently witnessed via online platforms. Thus, we examined whether witnessing racism online may be associated with feelings of loneliness amon…

    The rise in race-based hate crimes and groups should not only be examined as an individual- or group-level issue but as indicators that reflect state-level norms of hate and degradation toward racial minority groups. Specifically, for racial minority individuals residing in states that yield higher rates of hate crimes and groups, this may reflect a greater hate culture, and the distress associated with racism may be exacerbated, compared to thos…

    Most research on cultural stressors and alcohol has focused on intercultural stressors. Continuing to exclude intracultural stressors (e.g., intragroup marginalization) from alcohol research will yield a biased understanding of the experiences of Hispanics living in a bicultural society. As we amass more studies on intracultural stressors, research will be needed to identify mutable sociocultural factors that may mitigate the association between …

    This study examined the long-term effects of perceived educational and career barriers due to sexism and racism in college students’ pursuit of postgraduate education (PE) and how such effects were different across gender and racial majority/minority groups. With a sample of 2,717 undergraduate students, results from multinomial logistic regression showed that female and students of color not only perceived higher levels of barriers due to sexism…

    BACKGROUND: Applying the narrative transportation theory, we sought to test the role of a male-sensitive digital storytelling video as a source to persuade men to develop greater intentions to seek counselling based on their empathic reactions to the storyteller. METHODS: = 12.75) were randomly assigned to either the brochure or video condition and subsequently reported on their state empathy, perceived persuasiveness, and intentions to seek coun…

  • Online Gaming and Racism: Impact on Psychological Distress Among Black, Asian, and Latinx Emerging Adults

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Maynard Hearns•ARTICLE•Games and Culture•2022

    Although online racism occurs frequently and explicitly in online gaming (e.g., anti-Black hate speeches), no research has examined the psychological impact on racial/ethnic minority players. Thus, the current study examined the mediating role of online racism in the link between time spent in online gaming and psychological distress. Using data from 765 racial minority emerging adults in the United States and with gender controlled, time spent i…

  • The Role of First-Person Depression Storytelling Online Video on Men’s Self-Stigma of Seeking Help, Traditional Masculinity Ideology, and Psychological Help-Seeking Attitudes

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, John S Ogrodniczuk•ARTICLE•The Journal of Men s Studies•2022•Cited by: 4•References: 6

    Men are reluctant to seek psychological help as doing so may label them as weak and vulnerable. Thus, we tested whether a first-person storytelling video could buffer men’s self-stigma of seeking help associated with traditional masculinity ideology. Adult men ( N = 396; M age = 35.62) were randomly assigned and exposed to one of three conditions: (1) control (nothing), (2) male-sensitive brochure, (3) male-sensitive first-person storytelling vid…

  • Hate as a system: Examining hate crimes and hate groups as state level moderators on the impact of online and offline racism on mental health

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Xu Li et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2022•Cited by: 1•References: 43

    The rise in race-based hate crimes and groups should not only be examined as an individual- or group-level issue but as indicators that reflect state-level norms of hate and degradation toward racial minority groups. Specifically, for racial minority individuals residing in states that yield higher rates of hate crimes and groups, this may reflect a greater hate culture, and the distress associated with racism may be exacerbated, compared to thos…

  • The Development and Validation of the Heterosexism Erasure Scale

    Open Access•Richard Q Shin, Brian Taehyuk Keum et al.•ARTICLE•The Counseling Psychologist•2022•Cited by: 1•References: 46

    The heterosexism erasure construct captures attitudes, which deny or minimize the systemic oppression of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer (LGBQ) persons in the United States. Heterosexism erasure expands the interrogation of denying or minimizing discrimination (Neville at al., 2006) beyond the realm of White supremacy and into the domain of heteronormativity. The purpose of this project was to develop a psychometrically sound measure of heteros…

  • Collective Program Social Justice Identity and Perceived Norms on Promoting Student Advocacy

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Colleen A Kase et al.•ARTICLE•The Counseling Psychologist•2022•Cited by: 3•References: 39

    A growing body of research suggests that graduate psychology training programs with a stronger collective social justice identity are likely to provide more support for students’ advocacy engagements than those with discrepant views among members. We conducted response surface analyses ( N = 178 PhD students; across 16 counseling psychology programs) to examine whether the degree of congruence and discrepancy in social justice attitudes and perce…

  • Congruence and discrepancy in Asian American women's perception and stress appraisal of gendered racial microaggressions: Relationships with depressive symptoms and internalized racism

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Michele J Wong•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2022•Cited by: 5•References: 28

    Prior research demonstrates significant links between discrimination and mental health by assessing either encounters with or stress appraisal of discrimination. However, research has yet to examine the dynamic interplay between frequency and stress appraisal (e.g., high frequency-low stress appraisal) and their linkage to depressive symptoms. Using a sample of 309 Asian American women ( M age = 22.81, SD = 0.26), we used a polynomial regression …

  • Online Racism, Rumination, and Vigilance: Impact on Distress, Loneliness, and Alcohol Use

    Open Access•Brian Taehyuk Keum, Xu Li•ARTICLE•The Counseling Psychologist•2022•Cited by: 7•References: 22

    We examined the potential anticipatory response (rumination, vigilance) associated with online racism and its impact on psychological distress, loneliness, and alcohol use severity. With a sample of 407 racial minority adults, we conducted a path analysis to examine the indirect relation of online racism on our outcome variables via online racism-related rumination and offline racism-related vigilance. Online racism was significantly linked to ps…
