Every Day Matters: Using Daily Methods to Understand Oppression and BIPOC Youth Development in Context

There is an increasing use of daily methods (e.g., daily diaries, experience sampling method) by research investigating the roles of oppression, racism, and discrimination on Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) youth adjustment. This commentary discusses several promising directions in which daily methods can help (1) understand adolescents’ oppression‐related experiences in everyday life, (2) investigate the immediate and long‐term implications of these experiences, and (3) explore the role of protective processes and broader contexts. Moving forward, daily methods can be more broadly integrated into other methodologies (e.g., longitudinal designs, qualitative/mixed methods), providing unique insights into how systems of oppression become relevant in BIPOC adolescents’ everyday life and informing practices to improve their adjustment on a daily basis and over the long term.
