Abstract

Chinese Singaporeans categorized biracials more as a biracial while White American continue to categorize biracials more as a monoracial outgroup member. Chinese Singaporeans possessed a more permeable perception of racial boundary compared to White Americans, and perceptions of racial boundary permeability mediated the cross-cultural racial categorization of biracials.
