I would bet that matching the right teacher to every student with their own individual educational plan would also produce optimal outcomes for students. It’s not gonna happen. It’s not affordable and it’s unreasonable. Libbie silly talk just to stir up the pot as usual.
So training a woman to be a doctor or architect or engineer and hiring them costs more? Any evidence of this?
So, if I'm building a men's facility, I need to leave women off the team because they wouldn't know how to design stuff for men.
Generally, you don't see a reverse effect, as women are often trained utilizing male perspectives. See, for example, the study that I just posted on surgeons, where the effects were entirely driven by male surgeon/female patients not by female surgeon/make patients. They just integrate those perspectives with their own. It would be wise for men trying to compete to seek out women's perspectives in training, but, as you are demonstrating, many will reject the need to do so to improve performance. In terms of facilities, very few spaces are for men only, outside of maybe certain middle eastern countries/religious facilities. But sure, it would be less necessary to have diversity in the rare instance in which that occurs.
The question flows from the response. The topic is the notion of why diversity is beneficial. I pointed out an example. Then you went on some rant about how it is too expensive and impossible. So I'm wondering why you think it is more expensive to train a diverse workforce.
I need to check the code where it outlines upskirt view requirements. Maybe under Means of Egress or perhaps Interior Environment. Maybe Accessibility.
To me? Again, it depends on the "why". Is it beneficial to the business to hire only white males? Then I have no problem with it. That's up to the owner, and ultimately the free market. If the business gets large enough and people realize it's only white males, that's probably going to be viewed negatively at some point by some people. Anecdote. I have a good female friend who works in an international industry that does a lot of business in the Middle East and Asia. She is far and away the most qualified for the role, but they cannot put her in a position where she gets to have meetings with businessmen from those countries. They won't treat her as a peer. So the entire board is old white males. I'm in business to make money for my family. I'm going to fill any position with whoever I think is best suited to help achieve that goal. Other business owners can run their businesses how they see fit. But your original blanket statement of saying diversity in STEM-like occupations isnt useful is incorrect. There could be myriad reasons why it is useful.
Not the actual point of the study (which is to look at the interaction effects), but, yes, I think there was a small main effect as well. The study was published after peer review by the JAMA based on public data from Ontario, Canada. The researchers were at a variety of institutions at the time.
Well your playing the odds, religious affiliation not withstanding… I’m not sure what the make up on too hot is, probably not a great cross section of America.
