DESCRIPTION:In research comparing gender\, sexuality\, or racial groups\, p
 articipants identifying outside traditional categories are frequently excl
 uded from analyses or reassigned to more “convenient” categories witho
 ut their input. These practices are often justified on pragmatic grounds\,
  e.g.\, concerns about statistical power or appropriateness of drawing inf
 erences from small subgroups. However\, such decisions systematically remo
 ve marginalized identities from empirical evidence\, producing gaps in the
  literature about some of the most vulnerable populations. \n\nThis unconf
 erence will present reflections on these analytic decisions and the tensio
 ns they raise between research ethics\, statistical validity\, and practic
 al constraints. Using original data\, we will show example strategies we h
 ave used to retain participants with low-frequency identities by giving th
 em choice in how their data are used. The session will conclude with a str
 uctured discussion with attendees to generate ideas for improving study de
 sign\, analytic practices\, and reporting standards in research involving 
 identity-based group comparisons.
