Inclusion in research systems (specifically, research training, universities, and the publishing and funding environment within higher education) is increasingly identified as a problem. An inclusive body of researchers is better equipped to produce relevant, actionable scholarship that accounts for diversity and difference. Why? There's a strong…

This study uses data from the sixth national quinquennial survey on teaching and assessment methods in economics, also known as the "chalk and talk" survey, to examine, for the first time, how instructor, departmental, and institutional characteristics may contribute to the use of references to diversity, inclusion, and gender issues in…

Climate studies that measure equity and inclusion among faculty reveal widespread gender and race disparities in higher education.
