q1 · i? · theoretical · r?

This is the authors' forward-looking assessment, citing Bonilla-Silva's (2019) definition of racialized emotions as "emotions related to race that people experience when they engage in interracial interaction". It is an identified gap, not a tested finding.

"Educational psychologists have an interest in emotions. Yet, to date, educational psychologists have not explicated the role of racialized emotions in teaching and learning."

• Unexplicated definitions of key constructs introduce conceptual ambiguity that makes theory integration far less likely — a broader claim this one bears on
• School racial climate subscales showed positive relationships with motivational constructs including interest, belonging, and utility value — related
