The \u201c2024 State of Chinese Americans\u201d joint study aims to identify model minority stereotypes, and misperceptions of the population as a monolithic political bloc, and provide needed insights about the lived experiences, policy preferences, and political activity of Chinese Americans.\u00a0 The resulting report will seek to inform and educate policymakers and the public about these topics.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Understanding the political views of the Chinese American population is essential for fostering inclusivity and informed policymaking,\u201d said Cindy Tsai, Interim President and Executive Director, Committee of 100. \u201cBy delving into the Chinese Americans perspective, we will be able to gain valuable insights that not only enrich the political discourse but also contribute to a more equitable and representative society.\u00a0 We are excited to collaborate with NORC at the University of Chicago on this research project to produce data that may help in elevating the quality of life for Chinese Americans across our great country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In partnering with NORC, the 2024 study will survey 500 Chinese American respondents from NORC\u2019s new Amplify AAPI panel, a national probability sample of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders.\u00a0 This probability sample of 500 respondents is combined with 500 respondents drawn from one of NORC\u2019s non-probability partner panels.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChinese Americans are a vital part of the American society, yet many of the contributions, as well as struggles, of the Chinese American community remain unseen and unknown to the broader world,\u201d said David Dutwin, Senior Vice President of Strategic Initiatives, NORC at the University of Chicago.\u00a0 \u201cAcknowledging and comprehending the diversity within the Chinese American community ensures that our political landscape reflects the true tapestry of voices, fostering a more robust and inclusive democracy. We are proud to partner with Committee of 100 on this critically important research project.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Conducting the survey in English, simplified Chinese, and traditional Chinese, Committee of 100 and NORC will share the research results nationally in the coming months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York, NY (March 27, 2024)&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-63662","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-u-s-a"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63662","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=63662"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63662\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":63663,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63662\/revisions\/63663"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=63662"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=63662"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=63662"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
