#1: The Importance of Inclusive Climate within the Research Group, Department & Profession for Marginalized Science Scholarsā Career Outcomes: psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...
!["Compared to what is known from research on experiences of climate within research groups and departments, less scholarly attention has been paid to understanding marginalized science scholarsā perceptions of climate at the level of the profession (i.e., climate of scholarly inclusion). Our results suggest that scholars with multiple marginalized identities experience climate at the level of their profession as being less open to diversity and as devaluing scholarship by people from marginalized groups. [HIGHLIGHTED BY POSTER] In fact, across the three academic levels studied, climate at the level of the profession was the strongest mediator of the relationship between marginalized identities and all three career outcomes."

If you made it this far, thanks! And please re-skeet the 1st post. The Ivy+ Faculty Advancement Network--yes, THOSE universities--are producing these modules to show faculty how to exercise their power + discretion in advancing diversity + inclusion. #academicsky š§Ŗ
(Continuing thread on data) --> If so, how and how often are they presented? --> If not, whatās getting in the way? How is progress being monitored on these identities and others? Is it monitored as closely as your budget? Draft your unresolved Q's or asks in an email to DEI and/or IR staff.
What equity-minded data does your unit have with respect to: a. grad students (e.g., graduation rates/time to degree disaggregated by race, ) b. recent XP w/faculty hiring and retention, and/or data re: faculty turnover? Are these data regular or readily-available sources of information?
So now we know where everyone is with respect to this idea of diversity as an imperativeā¦ Are there questions emerging from the video? And in light of whatās happening on your campus, what concerns are you bringing to this conversation? Draft the unresolved Q's in an email to your DEI staff.
