The growing emphasis on studying equity, diversity, and inclusion withinsoftware engineering has amplified the need to explore hidden populationswithin this field. Exploring hidden populations becomes important to obtaininvaluable insights into the experiences, challenges, and perspectives ofunderrepresented groups in software engineering and, therefore, devisestrategies to make the software industry more diverse. However, studying thesehidden populations presents multifaceted challenges, including the complexitiesassociated with identifying and engaging participants due to their marginalizedstatus. In this paper, we discuss our experiences and lessons learned whileconducting multiple studies involving hidden populations in softwareengineering. We emphasize the importance of recognizing and addressing thesechallenges within the software engineering research community to foster a moreinclusive and comprehensive understanding of diverse populations of softwareprofessionals.
