“…The available quantitative studies, typically utilizing the general panethnic aggregate, suggest AAPI students are broadly and substantially underidentified for special education (Morgan et al, 2018), with local variations (e.g., Cooc, 2018) and some notable findings of overrepresentation (e.g., elevated risk of autism identification in schools; Sullivan, 2013). Compared to earlier reviews (e.g., Waitoller et al, 2010), more recent syntheses of special education disproportionality have prioritized nationally representative estimates for the panethnic aggregate AAPI category (Morgan et al, 2018), but these likely obfuscate important variability that may be attributed to differential need or opportunities among subgroups (Teranishi et al, 2016).…”
