Kamden Strunk is a Professor of Educational Research at Virginia Commonwealth University in the School of Education. Currently, he teaches quantitative methods for educational research. He has also taught in the areas of educational foundations, social justice, educational psychology, and human development. He is also a Faculty Fellow in the Office of the Provost - Faculty Affairs at VCU.
Kamden Strunk earned his Ph.D. in Educational Psychology from Oklahoma State University in 2012. Prior to that, he earned his M.S. in Psychology in 2009 from Evangel University, and his B.A. in Psychology from Evangel University in 2007.
His research focuses in quantitative methodologies (especially critical quantitative methodologies), intersectional queer and trans studies in education, and the psychology of education. He is a queer scholar focused on issues of access, equity, and inclusion for LGBTQ+ students, especially queer and trans students of Color in higher education. His work also emphasizes the role of race and racism, understanding most oppressive experiences in education as the end product of white supremacist cisheteropatriarchy. He has written extensively about critical quantitative methodologies, including the book How to QuantCrit, articles and a special issue of Educational Studies on queer quantitative methods, and many other publications on critical approaches to quantitative methodologies. He has also developed a novel method for meta-analytic confirmatory factor analysis (MA-CFA), which he has used to examine the population-level structure of measures including the Beck Depression Inventory-II, the Achievement Goal Questionnaire-Revised, and most recently the Colorblind Racial Attitudes Scale (CoBRAS).
Students interested in becoming involved with Kamden Strunk's research should inquire about the Ph.D. in Education, concentration in Research, Assessment, and Evaluation at Virginia Commonwealth University.
Kamden Strunk is also the co-editor of the Queer Studies in Education book series with Brill, which is currently accepting proposals, and of the Journal of Queer and Trans Studies in Education.
