q1 · i? · theoretical · r1

The handbook's overview passage makes this claim about the field itself: it states that "the discipline has long neglected the academic success, well-being, and other outcomes of historically and systemically marginalized learners." No empirical support is printed in the supplied text; it is the handbook's scholarly reckoning framing.

"the discipline has long neglected the academic success, well-being, and other outcomes of historically and systemically marginalized learners and research partners, and the field remains complicit in imposing normative standards and social stratification across diverse populations"
