The article presents the results of the study of the subject area related to the attitude of young people to the preservation of spiritual and moral values. We carried out a multilevel analysis of the process of formation of spiritual and moral values of the younger generation. The theoretical prerequisites of the empirical part of the study are based on a brief review of the literature; it is reflected in the information blocks of the toolkit. To study the attitude of young people (to the preservation of spiritual and moral values in the regional community) 3 information sections were identified as part of the questionnaire survey. 1st section – opinions of young people about family and marriage relations; 2nd section – preservation of traditional values of the people and the country; 3rd section – attitude to religion and participation in helping others. The survey database was processed in the SPSS Statistics program (version 23). The assessment of the attitude of young people (to the preservation of spiritual and moral values in the regional community) makes it possible to use information to improve the spiritual and moral education of young people by such social institutions as education, social protection of the population, culture and youth policy. The results of the study contribute to the information and analytical support of programs for the socio-cultural development of the territories of the South of Russia and the sustainable development of the regional community.

“…These reasons to promote diversity within scientific disciplines operate concurrently with the more important perspective that diverse research teams are morally good (Morrison & Steltzer, 2021;NASEM, 2022); the worthiness of diverse research teams should not rely on the commodification of the contributions of scientists from underrepresented backgrounds (Gardner-Vandy et al, 2021).…”

“…Not only should education focus on training students broadly in quantitative and interdisciplinary methods, but also there is a strong need for targeted efforts that promote educational equity and inclusivity (Bowser & Cid, 2021 ; Graham et al, 2013 ). Providing opportunities to students who would not traditionally receive quantitative and interdisciplinary training enables a greater diversity of scientists to contribute a broader range of ideas and perspectives which will inherently represent more diverse interests from relevant parties (Bowser & Cid, 2021 ; Cheryan et al, 2017 ; Gardner‐Vandy et al, 2021 ; Graham et al, 2013 ; Hofstra et al, 2020 ; Kozlowski et al, 2022 ; Morrison & Steltzer, 2021 ; NASEM, 2021a ). Numerous recent publications have highlighted the continued lack of diversity among science students and professionals (Hunter et al, 2010 ; Miriti, 2019 , 2021 ; Riegle‐Crumb et al, 2019 ; Schell et al, 2020 ), particularly in quantitative and data science fields (Paxton, 2020 ).…”

“…Finally, recruiting students from historically underrepresented groups into the scientific workforce increases the number of qualified and talented workers (Cheryan et al, 2017 ; Graham et al, 2013 ). These reasons to promote diversity within scientific disciplines operate concurrently with the more important perspective that diverse research teams are morally good (Morrison & Steltzer, 2021 ; NASEM, 2022 ); the worthiness of diverse research teams should not rely on the commodification of the contributions of scientists from underrepresented backgrounds (Gardner‐Vandy et al, 2021 ). Making concerted efforts to improve the equity of educational opportunities represents a promising way to improve the persistence of students from diverse backgrounds into scientific disciplines (Graham et al, 2013 ).…”

Conducting ecological research in a way that addresses complex, real‐world problems requires a diverse, interdisciplinary and quantitatively trained ecology and environmental science workforce. This begins with equitably training students in ecology, interdisciplinary science, and quantitative skills at the undergraduate level. Understanding the current undergraduate curriculum landscape in ecology and environmental sciences allows for targeted interventions to improve equitable educational opportunities. Ecological forecasting is a sub‐discipline of ecology with roots in interdisciplinary and quantitative science. We use ecological forecasting to show how ecology and environmental science undergraduate curriculum could be evaluated and ultimately restructured to address the needs of the 21 st century workforce. To characterize the current state of ecological forecasting education, we compiled existing resources for teaching and learning ecological forecasting at three curriculum levels: online resources; US university courses on ecological forecasting; and US university courses on topics related to ecological forecasting. We found persistent patterns (1) in what topics are taught to US undergraduate students at each of the curriculum levels; and (2) in the accessibility of resources, in terms of course availability at higher education institutions in the United States. We developed and implemented programs to increase the accessibility and comprehensiveness of ecological forecasting undergraduate education, including initiatives to engage specifically with Native American undergraduates and online resources for learning quantitative concepts at the undergraduate level. Such steps enhance the capacity of ecological forecasting to be more inclusive to undergraduate students from diverse backgrounds and expose more students to quantitative training.

“…An approach differentiating between functional or task-related diversity and demographic (relational) diversity has been adopted in previous studies in order to explain the mixed effects of diversity on organizational performance (Choi, 2007). However, demographic diversity dimensions are also used as proxies for more abstract diversity dimensions, such as intellectual diversity, as they reflect the variety of experiences of individuals (Morrison & Steltzer, 2021;Rodriguez, 2016). As indicated, there is a significant body of research which analyses the influence of diversity on job satisfaction and organizational outcomes.…”

Influence of Inclusive Work Environment and Perceived Diversity on Job Satisfaction: Evidence from Poland

Organizations are increasingly operating with a multicultural and diverse workforce. Researchers and practitioners have recognized that diversity is a double-edged sword and can result in many significant benefits but can also present challenges in organizations. Therefore, the goal of the paper is to analyse the influence of perceived diversity, a perceived inclusive organizational culture and an inclusive diversity paradigm on employee job satisfaction. In order to analyse the research problem, a quantitative approach was chosen. The research was conducted on a representative sample (n = 1 035) of Poles using a research panel. The data analysis showed a statistically significant, positive correlation between perceived diversity and job satisfaction, as well as a statistically significant, positive correlation between an inclusive work environment (defined as an inclusive organizational culture and an inclusive diversity paradigm) and job satisfaction. The paper broadens our understanding of the role of diversity and inclusion for job-related attitudes. It shows managers that developing an inclusive, diverse workplace can have an influence on job satisfaction. The paper contributes to research into diversity, inclusion and job satisfaction by addressing diversity, an inclusive work environment and its consequences for an organization from the perspective of the employees and their perception of the analysed issues. Implications for Central European audience: Central European countries are rather homogenous in terms of socio-demographic diversity dimensions, especially in comparison to the US and Western European context, where the vast majority of diversity and inclusion research has been conducted. When analysing employee attitudes, it may be important to look not only at objective variables but turn towards their perception by the employees, who in this case are raised in the homogenous Polish society. Thus, the paper contributes to the literature by presenting a CEE context and gives managers operating in this region insight into how diversity and inclusion affect job satisfaction.
