In a context where more than 40% of LGBTQIA+ individuals in the UK are estimated to avoid sports due to experiences of discrimination, with disengagement closely linked to negative experiences during physical education at school, the ability of specifically LGBTQIA+-oriented sports clubs to buck this trend and create vibrant inclusive sporting…

This study examines three waves of data from a nationally representative survey, the China College Student Survey (2010, 2013 and 2015), to determine whether highly educated female graduates who choose to move outside their "hukou"-registered cities experience a double-negative effect in terms of initial earnings attainment and work…

This paper explores how female subjectivities were constructed in the educational discourse in women's magazines published in the Ottoman language from the first magazine that was published in 1869 until the promulgation of the Second Constitution Period in 1908 in the Ottoman Empire. The study draws on the concept of Occidentalism defined by…

Facilitated by the increased availability of affordable broadband Internet, individuals around the world are taking language lessons online from private tutors. A large proportion of online language tutoring takes place through online teaching platforms (OTPs), which are two-sided online markets that connect individual learners and tutors for…

The present study explored young children's inclusion/exclusion decisions based on gender, skin color, and physical and sensorial disabilities. We also examined children's emotions following these decisions and the explicit influence of peers (social consensus) and teachers (authority influence). Our sample consisted of 64 Romanian children, aged…

Sexual and gender minority (SGM) youth face elevated mental health risks. However, insights from minority stress theory and prevention science suggest that this disparity may result from increased exposure to minority stressors rather than their minoritized identities and that there are protective factors that can mitigate these higher risks. At…

We study whether gender differences in university major choices result from anticipated labor market discrimination. First, we document two novel facts using administrative transcript records from a large Midwestern university: women are less likely to study science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) as well as business and…

The contemporary capitalist practice, a neoliberal version, promotes the model of a public university as a profitable enterprise providing high-quality educational services. This means a situation in which public higher education is subject to market pressures, including the narrative of irreversible privatisation and marketisation. It is also the…

Evidence reveals that minoritized groups face disparities, underscoring the need for interventions to address behavioral health inequities. This review examined which minoritized populations are represented in evidence-based preventive interventions (EBPIs) and whether they equitably benefit from these programs. Using the Blueprints for Healthy…

As a practical theory of language, translanguaging refers not only to speakers' use of multiple languages, but also to the deployment of other semiotic resources and artifacts in communication. To examine the use of semiotic resources and translingual negotiation strategies in STEM communication, this study explores the intersectionality of…

While women make up over half of doctoral students in the biological sciences, that number decreases as they progress through academic job rankings. The "leaky pipeline" and other metaphors have been used to describe the underrepresentation of women in STEM, but these metaphors fail to address how institutional structures, such as…

Despite the numerical predominance of women in higher education institutions (HEIs), significant underrepresentation in academic and leadership positions persists, highlighting ongoing gender inequalities. This study examines the role of management in addressing gender disparities and offensive behaviors within a Portuguese public HEI, using…

This paper explores how minoritized Computer Science (CS) students articulate their sense of critical agency to positively impact the world around them, both for today and the future, when participating in a Girls Who Code program focused on ethics, equity, and underrepresentation in computing. Observations, interviews, and surveys were conducted…

Universal voucher policies allow any student, regardless of their family income level or history of attending public schools, to be eligible to use public funding to attend private, often religious, schools or home schooling. From 2021 to 2025, the number of statewide universal voucher programs has gone from zero to thirteen. These efforts have…

Gender is gaining more attention as a category of analysis in educational scholarship; however, much misunderstanding of gender remains, especially in how sex and gender are often treated as synonymous analytics. Additionally, gender and race are often treated as wholly separate despite their ongoing entwined epistemic and ontological genealogies.…
