In the US (or a different country of interest to you!), is there differential participation in this domain at the expert levels by demographic factors (gender,
race/ethnicity, family income, region)? For example, is it dominated by men, members of a particular religion, people who grew up in a certain socioeconomic group, members of a particular race/ethnicity in ways that do not mirror the general population numbers? Pick one demographic dimension that
shows unequal access to your selected domain of expertise. What kinds of factors have led to this differential participation by this demographic dimension?
One or two key factors is enough to include (even though there are likely many). In particular, argue whether this is a story of natural talent differences or
systemic biases (i.e., people unable to gain access despite having sufficient talent). Give research evidence.
