This mini review explores the intersection of psycholinguistic research and critical discourse studies, focusing on racial representations intertwined with psycholinguistic variables in shaping discourse perceivers' perceptions. It addresses recent literature on the various psycholinguistic variables that influence discourse perceivers in discourse processing. This review has investigated recent developments regarding racial representations intertwined with these psycholinguistic variables that influence discourse perceivers from Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). The findings reveal that most existing studies have concentrated on social media, news, and political discourse while overlooking other types of discourse, such as narrative discourse in novels. These studies emphasize psycholinguistic variables to evoke cognitive and emotional responses in discourse perceivers, such as threatening noun-based expressions, violent verb-based expressions, categorized adjectives, animalizing/militarizing metaphors, binary-related pronouns, and exaggerated quantifier-based expressions. Meanwhile, among the existing studies, it has been discovered that a meager number of studies on the recontextualization of racial representation and its influences of relevant psycholinguistic variables on discourse perceivers. In terms of research focus, the limited recontextualization studies have only focused on the representation of migrants and refugees in Poland and Islamic representation in Italy, while little attention has been paid to other marginalized racial groups. Methodologically, this review also highlights a methodological gap, as much of the existing research relies on traditional CDA frameworks, such as the Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA), and a multi-step model of discursive shifts, while overlooking more eclectic and synergistic approaches. Furthermore, this review critiques the limitations of recontextualization as an analytical approach, followed by final remarks and suggestions for future directions.
