How do gender biases in the automotive industry affect the experiences of female employees in dealerships?

Utilizing a series of questionnaires for my research project, I hope to obtain a comprehensive understanding of how job experiences differ on the basis of gender. Moreover, I endeavor to question whether the perception and promotion aspects influence female employees' experiences. I wonder, when positioned as minorities in male-dominated industries-belittled in perception and underrepresented in promotion (Darley et al., 2008; Esser et al., 2018)-are females more inclined to challenge the stereotype or personify the stereotype? My project will consist of a survey distributed to males and females in leadership roles at automotive dealerships. I will study multiple measures of female experience and influencing factors. Such inquiries will help me determine how females respond (in terms of experience) to stereotyping in their workplace.

Refining a Smartphone App to Treat Binge Eating in Black Women

The purpose of this study is to test a smartphone app that helps Black women with binge eating. First, participants in the study will complete interviews that help identify barriers and reasons that lead to binge eating in Black women with obesity. With that information, researchers will test and improve a smartphone app to include necessary intervention functions to reduce binge eating in the target population. Part of the testing process includes focus group sessions where participants will give feedback on : 1) organization and presentation, 2) content, 3) sensitivity to issues faced by Black women who binge eat; 4) therapeutic benefit; 5) user-friendliness; and 6) quality of intervention. All information collected from focus groups will be considered in the final version of the app.
