You’re right, which is one of the many many reasons diversity is so difficult to study on a quantitative level ‘cause often what people want in terms of diversity is closer to non-European white than non-white. Ugh, I’m having trouble articulating all this. :/

And this bias is fine as long as it’s a) calculated in terms of magnitude b) the magnitude is acceptable c) findings are adjusted
From the bottom of the original article:
So I think I’m trying to address this from a slightly different angle, which is that the data collection methodology creates biases that are then propagated throughout the analysis (and model if there is one).
The methodology appears to be that they looked at photos/vids and categorized the girls, so likely high.
Spent a semester trying to help grad students trying to do this, so immediately jumped to their methodology. It’s maddengly vague and seems kinda problematic because it appears to be based solely on appearance: (though it kinda has to be ‘cause good data on this is bascally impossible to come by)
Clinicians and scientists should recognize that this is a substantial risk in the youngest women.
He won the Nobel Prize in Literature, so whether his songs are about peace or not is irrelevant.
Ivanka and her husband are (modern) Orthodox and the more conservative flavors if Judaism are leaning towards Trump. But, her hubby also got in trouble with his family for defending Trump. Like I think a cousin? wrote something in the forward about it.
If your intention is in earnest, this comment would have been far more constructive if it either pointed me to resources that could help me improve (I particularly like “Grammatically Correct”) or offered concrete suggestions on how to improve the clarity of my writing. For example:
538 went all in on Bush not providing this info to Jeb during the primaries.
That deflect has the potential to be brilliant cause it gives her the opening to bring up everything horrid he’s ever done to his wives and women in general. It’s also basically a softball for her to give a vulnerable she’s a human being who wanted to save her then 20 now something like 40 yr marriage answer.
I think this is higher profile, so they’d be more inclined to get it right. Again, the cast of the animated movie is ethnically Chinese for the people roles, so it’d be weird for Disney to deviate for the live action.
*shrugs* Dunno, but Disney probably has the numbers on how well the animated version did. And this could be a project they’d go half in with China on, as that’s something a lot of studios are doing now. Either way, Disney isn’t gonna alienate the market straight off the bat.
Blackish on ABC, Zendaya’s show on the Disney Channel, Finn in Star Wars, Shonda’s shows on ABC, hell the last traditionally animated Disney movie was Princess and the Frog and that was ages ago. Could always be better of course, but this is not a ball Disney has completely dropped.
Yeah, but Disney present has been fairly good a diversity across most of its properties. For example, they have two Hispanic influenced little kids shows, Disney channel fairly consistently has a black family sitcom, and tends to cast POC kids in all sorts of roles, and ABC has both Blackish and Fresh Off the Both and…
Yup. And Disney has been doing the right thing for a while. Like their reboot of Star Wars, which they could have whitewashed to hell and back and they would have likely gotten less outcry than the flack they got for Finn and Rey.
Also, Disney wants this movie to do well in China and they know there’s no way in hell that’ll happen if they don’t cast a Chinese actress.
Disney was always gonna cast a Chinese actress ‘cause this movie is probably aimed more at China than the US and so a non-Chinese actress was never gonna fly. And for the past who knows how long, Disney has been casting voice actors of the same background as the characters (including the animated Mulan), so there was…
