Are you a researcher in the field of CYP mental health? Around 3 quarters of mental health difficulties begin before age 24. Yet treatments for CYP often show poorer outcomes than those for adults. So how do we turn advances in psychological science into meaningful change for young people? 🧵(1/9)

lol y'all got me going so let me add two more for y'all: Even if diversity is considered, guess who employers prefer to promote? WHITE WOMEN. Because they're seen to have more "diversity value" and Black representation is seen as a cost. #blacksky journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....
And yet, because decision-makers consider anyone who is a woman and/or Black as contributing to overall diversity, decision-makers subtly prefer to accrue diversity through White women to avoid what they perceive as costs associated with Black representation, namely costs to organizational comfort and, counterintuitively, to the company’s diversity image. As White women are implicitly in greater demand than Black men or Black women, they possess the highest relative diversity value.
