Abstract

Asian American and Pacific Islanders (AAPIs) represent a diverse group of different ethnicities and cultures. This study examines how national data on race and ethnicity are reported and describes the characteristics of AAPIs in light of the β€œmodel minority” myth. In addition, this study examines a definition of Asian American and Pacific Islander‐Serving Institutions (AAPISIs) contained in legislation currently under consideration by the United States Congress.
