Abstract
Graduate students may experience several challenges en route to attaining their degrees, such as financial constraints, psychological distress, and intense academic demands. For Black women in graduate school, these challenges may be exacerbated by experiences of gendered racial microaggressions. When faced with adversity, graduate students are likely to seek support and direction from their faculty advisor. Therefore, based on intersectionality and gendered racism theoretical frameworks, the present study was conducted to examine if the advisory working alliance and social connectedness may moderate the relationship between experiencing gendered racial microaggressions and well-being among Black women in graduate school. A total of 185 Black women graduate students completed an online survey. Using Hayes’ (2013) PROCESS computational tool to examine moderation hypotheses, the results from simple effects indicated that there was a significantly negative relationship between frequency of gendered racial microaggressions and life satisfaction for participants at a higher level of mainstream society social connectedness. Additionally, the negative relationship between stress appraisal of gendered racial microaggressions and life satisfaction was significant at a higher level of mainstream society social connectedness. Lastly, the negative association between frequency of gendered racial microaggressions and life satisfaction was significant only at a lower level of advisory working alliance apprenticeship.
