一项针对 1,219 名非裔美国人、拉丁裔美国人、亚裔美国人和欧洲裔美国人心理学研究生的全国性网络调查揭示了他们在经历和观点上的相似点和差异。研究发现，指导是跨群体满意度的最强预测因素。学术支持和障碍，以及对学术环境多样性的看法，也是满意度的重要预测因素。与欧洲裔美国学生相比，有色人种学生在心理学中认为其种族群体的代表性不太公平，但研究生院经历的各个方面与其种族之间的联系却更大。讨论了该研究的局限性以及对未来研究和行动的影响。
A national, Web-based survey of 1,219 African American, Latina/o, Asian American, and European American psychology graduate students revealed both similarities and differences in experiences and perspectives. Mentoring was found to be the strongest predictor of satisfaction across groups. Academic supports and barriers, along with perceptions of diversity within the academic environment, were also important predictors of satisfaction. Students of color perceived less fairness of representation of their ethnic group within psychology than European American students, and a greater linkage between aspects of the graduate school experience and their ethnicity. Limitations of the study and implications for future research and action are discussed.
