Table 3. PHCRP model by focus and its related CRT-based affiliated principles.

Focus Affiliated Principles
Focus 1: Contemporary Racialization Primacy of racism – racism is a dominant social force in society
Race as social construct – phenotypic characteristics have meaning because of socio-political, not biological, factors
Ordinariness of racism – racism exists in all facets of everyday life, even if not perceived
Structural determinism –systems of power preserve the interests of dominant group members
Focus 2: Knowledge Production Social construction of knowledge – study findings reflect research-related biases (eg, a priori assumptions)
Critical approaches – to challenge initial understandings, “question the question” and perform self-critiques
Voice – to privilege the perspectives of marginalized communities
Focus 3: Conceptualization & Measurement Race as social construct – socio-political factors give meaning to phenotypic characteristics
Intersectionality – oppressive social forces produce interlocking effects and social identities
Focus 4: Action Critical approaches – to challenge initial understandings, questioning the questioner and perform self-critiques
Disciplinary self-critique - collective assessment by members of a discipline of unintended racial influence on assumptions, methods, etc.
Intersectionality – oppressive social forces produce interlocking effects and social identities
Voice – to privilege the perspectives of marginalized communities
