Vandiver studies Black racial identity and ethnic-racial identity more broadly, including how these identities are measured (such as through the Cross Racial Identity Scale) and how they relate to psychological outcomes like self-esteem. She has also served as Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Black Psychology, writing extensively on the journal's history and on the theoretical contributions of scholars like William E. Cross, Jr. to identity theory (nigrescence theory, which describes stages of Black racial identity development).
