Research participants needed

Hsin-Ya Tang, a faculty member in the Department of Counseling and Educational Studies at Johns Hopkins, is seeking the participation of students in a research study. He will be exploring the lived experiences of Asian university students concerning discrimination experienced, if at all, amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings of this study may help counselors advocate for Asian students and may provide suggestions for working with Asian students for college counselors and student affairs professionals. Very little research has been done in this area; Tang hopes the study will yield useful insights to the profession and will be enlightening to college counselors and student affairs professionals.

In order to be considered a participant for this study, you must meet all the following criteria:

  • Be a JHU student.
  • Be at least 18 years old .
  • Identify as an Asian American or Asian international student

Each participant will be interviewed once via Zoom. If you agree to participate, the time commitment required will be approximately 45-60 minutes for an interview. The confidential interviews will be conducted at a time of your choosing and will be audio-recorded.

If you have any questions and/or if you are willing to take part in this study, please contact Hsin-Ya Tang at htang30@jhu.edu to schedule your interview.
