虽然有方案努力支持代表性不足群体的学生的代表性，以及对学生身份的研究，但在将两者联系起来方面做得很少。我们利用一个结合了种族化身份框架[1]和物理身份框架[2]的框架，以了解物理身份如何受到文化和种族身份的影响。我们特别关注两个维度：关系资源[1]，这是增加一个人与实践的联系的关系，以及认可[2]，这是作为一个好物理学生的认可。我们通过分析与物理学家在本科生水平及以后的采访，这些概念的操作。我们通过对两位物理学家（一位是黑人女性，另一位是白色男性）的经验进行仔细的研究，证明了认同和关系资源的结构是重叠的，我们讨论了早期的发现，这些发现表明了身份在不同背景的物理学家的经验中所起的作用的关键差异。
While there are programmatic efforts to support representation of students from underrepresented groups, as well as studies on student identity, little has been done to link the two. We utilize a framework that combines a racialized identity framework [1] and a physics identity framework [2], in order to understand how identity in physics is impacted by cultural and racial identities. In particular we focus on two dimensions: relational resources [1], which are the relationships that increase one’s connection to a practice, and recognition [2], which is recognition as being a good physics student. We operationalize these concepts by analyzing interviews with physicists at the undergraduate student level and beyond. We demonstrate that the constructs of recognition and relational resources overlap through the careful examination of the experiences of two physicists, one who is a black woman and one who is a white man. We discuss early findings that suggest key differences in the role that identity plays in the experiences of physicists of different backgrounds.
