A well-known shortcoming in the nation's scientific infrastructure is the disparity of opportunity among scientists and researchers. This project provides forums for researchers from institutions with different levels of resources to create networks and collaborations and receive mentoring. The project builds upon previous research on intersectionality and police-civilian interactions, using an experimental design to advance the science concerning civilian reactions to police officers. It contributes to our understanding of the intersections of race, gender, and policing. It also advances the science of the political dynamics of the relationship between a country and a territory, furthering the prior (small body of) work on the preferences and views of citizens residing in such territories. Finally, the research advances the science of differences between perceptions of rural versus urban residents who are beneficiaries of public spending, expanding knowledge about general attitudes toward the recipients of government aid. The project supports networks and collaborations, mentoring, and funding for pilot projects. These opportunities can also help draw more undergraduates into the pipeline of students entering social science and STEM graduate programs.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

国家科学基础设施的一个众所周知的缺点是科学家和研究人员之间的机会不平等。该项目为来自不同资源水平机构的研究人员提供论坛，以建立网络和合作并接受指导。该项目建立在以前关于交叉性和警察-平民互动的研究基础上，使用实验设计来推进关于平民对警察反应的科学。它有助于我们理解种族，性别和警务的交叉点。它还推动了一个国家与一个领土之间关系的政治动态科学，促进了先前关于居住在这些领土上的公民的偏好和观点的（少量）工作。最后，研究推进了农村居民与城市居民谁是公共支出的受益者的看法之间的差异的科学，扩大对政府援助的接受者的一般态度的知识。该项目支持网络和合作、指导和资助试点项目。这些机会也有助于吸引更多的本科生进入社会科学和STEM研究生课程的学生管道。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
