About CIAB Study
Cultural Identity Audio-Biography (CIAB) Study
We designed a study to see if Asian American teens would participate in a DJ program designed to help them “create a soundtrack of their life (so far).” We developed a program to teach teens how to DJ
(at least the basics) so they could explore their Asian identity through the music they listen to and love—to try to have teens achieve a mix that “tells someone who they are only through the songs and drops they mix.”
