This study examines the evaluative processes adolescents employ when deciding if, when, and how to engage in critical conversations (e.g., race talk) in the classroom. Specifically, I explore how risk/threat perceptions can impose barriers to learning and the coping mechanisms adolescents utilize when engaging in risky instructional interactions. Findings suggest adolescents evaluate risk based on the likelihood of the interaction to impede self-system, academic, and/or social goals and either approach or avoid learning tasks depending on their perceptions of the resources available to meet the demands of the risk. These findings have implications for understanding mechanisms of resistance and engagement in the classroom, as well as for informing efforts toward designing motivational interventions. Implications for future work examining how youth regulate multiple content goals in achievement settings, particularly in relation to their identity development and exposure to psychologically safe teaching practices, is discussed.
