The Gini index is probably the most commonly used indicator to measure inequality. For continuous distributions, the Gini index can be computed using several equivalent formulations. However, this is not the case with discrete distributions, where controversy remains regarding the expression to be used to estimate the Gini index. We attempt to…

Disadvantaged students have struggled to find equal opportunities in STEM; thus, it is critical to challenge global society's structures so that all students have equal opportunities to learn and become proficient in STEM subjects.

PreK-12 schools across the United States are adopting social and emotional learning (SEL) programs for both students and educators.

Across survey experiments with two independent representative polls of California voters, framing effects were…
