By gender

Figure view

Summary of responses
Non-binary/transgender/rather not say/self-identified YSM faculty respondents report the lowest rates of effective mentoring and advocacy.

Table view

Note: Categories are not mutually exclusive, as survey respondents were asked to select all answers that apply. To maintain confidentiality for categories with small response sizes, “Non-binary”, “Transgender”, “Rather not say”, and self-identified open-response gender identities have been grouped together. If any group contains fewer than 5 respondents, all response counts are rounded to the nearest 5 to prevent inference of specific group sizes.

By underrepresented minority (URM) status

Figure view

Summary of responses
URM YSM faculty respondents report similar experiences of formal mentoring as non-URM faculty, but somewhat less advocacy. International faculty respondents report the highest levels of effective mentoring.

Note: URM stands for “underrepresented minority.” See our Data Definitions page for more information.
