“…The nuanced role of an effective mentor includes scientific as well as psychosocial support (Lechuga, 2011). Effective mentorship has been empirically shown to be vital to graduate student success, particularly for under-represented groups (Riffle et al, 2013;Mack et al, 2013; San Miguel and Kim, 2015; for review see Makarem and Wang, 2020). The presence of a person the student considers a mentor who provides encouragement can counteract feelings of isolation experienced by women and under-represented minorities, as well as increase selfefficacy, job satisfaction, and work engagement (Tenenbaum et al, 2001;Handelsman et al, 2005;Meschitti and Lawton Smith, 2017).…”

“…When diverse perspectives are lost from the academic system, the quality, scholarship, and innovation of the institution is diminished (Østergaard et al, 2011;Díaz-García et al, 2013;Adams, 2013;Freeman and Huang, 2014;AlShebli et al, 2018). The loss of competitive colleagues and the dampening of academic aspirations occurs, not for scientific reasons, but due to a lack of salient support for the types, and disproportionate number, of barriers experienced by women and under-represented minorities (Handelsman et al, 2005;Riffle et al, 2013;Ong et al, 2011;Mack et al, 2013). Pushing back on these inequities by supporting graduate student trainees is vital to generating a more just scientific enterprise.…”

“…Literatürdeki ilgili araştırmalar incelendiğinde; kadınların kariyer gelişimlerini etkileyen pek çok bireysel, ekonomik, sistemsel, politik, kültürel ve sosyal faktörlerin bulunduğu görülmektedir (Lent, Brown ve Hackett, 2000). Aile desteği (Blustein ve ark, 2013;Buschor, Berweger, Frei ve Kappler, 2014), aile rehberliği (Saucerman ve Vasquez, 2014), rol modelleri (O'Neill, 2002), etnik köken (Mack, Rankins ve Woodson, 2013), cinsiyetleştirilmiş beklentiler (Beilock, Gunderson, Ramirez ve Levine, 2010), arkadaş desteği (Leaper, Farkas ve Brown, 2011) gibi pek çok faktör FeTeMM alanlarındaki kariyer gelişimini şekillendirebilmekte, kadınların bu alanları kariyer olarak seçmelerinde ve / veya bu alanlarda kariyerlerini sürdürmelerinde rol oynamaktadır.…”

“…This is not something that occurs only in specific fields of study. Women of color are underrepresented in most fields of study and they are especially underrepresented in STEM (Mack, Rankins, & Woodson, 2013). Math, physical sciences, and other topics are not exempt from (re)producing the White/male center.…”
