	PERCEPTION INSTITUTE PROJECT:PERCEPTION INSTITUTE OPERATES AS A CONSORTIUM OF RESEARCHERS AND PRACTITIONERS WHO SEEK TO IDENTIFY EFFECTIVE INTERVENTIONS TO ADDRESS WAYS IN WHICH SOCIAL IDENTITY DIFFERENCES RESULT IN SYSTEMATIC AND INDIVIDUAL INEQUITY. WE RELY HEAVILY ON SOCIAL SCIENCE - SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY, COGNITIVE NEUROSCIENCE, AND SOCIOLOGY - TO UNDERSTAND THE MECHANISMS UNDERLYING INEQUITY RESULTING FROM HUMAN BEHAVIOR AND INSTITUTIONAL OUTCOMES. WE ASSESS HOW INTERVENTIONS FROM A WIDE ARRAY OF CONTEXTS - INDIGENOUS PRACTICES, MEDIATION, RESTORATIVE JUSTICE FRAMEWORKS, COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY - CAN BE EMPLOYED TO CHANGE INSTITUTIONAL DYNAMICS. WE ALSO ENGAGE IN ORIGINAL RESEARCH TO UNDERSTAND HOW SOCIETAL NARRATIVES ABOUT RACE, GENDER, ETHNICITY, RELIGION, AND OTHER SOCIAL IDENTITIES CAN AFFECT HOW THESE SOCIAL IDENTITIES ARE CONSTRUCTED. BELOW WE DESCRIBE A SLICE OF THE SUBSTANTIVE WORK WE HAVE BEEN ENGAGED IN SINCE JULY 2019. IN THE CONCLUSION WE SHARE THE BEGINNINGS OF WHAT WE HOPE WILL SUPPORT OUR CHANGE GOING FORWARD.RESEARCH AND PUBLICATIONSOUR PUBLICATIONS FOR 2020 INCLUDE: - CHALLENGING THE DISPARITIES DEFAULT: REFRAMING AND RECLAIMING WOMEN'S POWER (A RESEARCH REVIEW) (2020)(RACHEL GODSIL, AYA TAVERAS)- BIAS IN THE LAW: A DEFINITIVE LOOK AT RACIAL PREJUDICE IN THE U.S. CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM (LEXINGTON BOOKS 2020) [PROMOTING FAIRNESS? EXAMINING THE EFFICACY OF IMPLICIT BIAS TRAINING IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM](RACHEL GODSIL)- WHAT ARE WE UP AGAINST? AN INTERSECTIONAL EXAMINATION OF STEREOTYPES ASSOCIATED WITH GENDER (STORY AT SCALE, 2020)(JANAY CODY, RACHEL GODSIL, ALEXIS MCGILL JOHNSON)RESEARCH PROJECTS:EFFICACY OF POWER FRAMING ON ASSOCIATIONS OF WOMEN AND POWER: AN INTERSECTIONAL GENDER STUDYBUILDING UPON THE 2020 CHALLENGING THE DISPARITIES DEFAULT PAPER, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH A NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION, WE TELL OUR SELVES (WTOS), WE ARE IN THE FINAL STAGES OF AN ONLINE NATIONALLY REPRESENTATIVE STUDY OF THE POTENTIAL FOR "POWER FRAMING" - A SEQUENCING OF ADDRESSING THE INEQUITIES OF WOMEN IN POSITIONS OF POWER BY BEGINNING WITH THE EFFICACY OF WOMEN CURRENTLY IN POSITIONS OF POWER - TO INCREASE THE IMPLICIT ASSOCIATIONS OF WOMEN WITH POWER, TO INCREASE A SENSE OF EFFICACY OF WOMEN TO SEEK POWER, AND TO INCREASE THE IMPORTANCE PEOPLE ACROSS GENDER ASCRIBE TO SUPPORT MEASURES THAT WILL RESULT IN WOMENS' ACCESS TO POWER.THIS STUDY IS INTENDED TO TEST OUR THEORY OF HOW TO ADVANCE THE EFFICACY OF COMMUNICATION ABOUT WOMEN AND POWER. THE MEDIA AS WELL AS THOSE IN THE PROGRESSIVE SPACE SEEKING TO INCREASE ACCESS TO POWER FOR WOMEN HAVE HISTORICALLY RELIED UPON WHAT WE HAVE NAMED "DISPARITY OR "OBSTACLES" FRAMING WHICH EMPHASIZES THE DEARTH OF WOMEN IN POWER AND/OR THE OBSTACLES WOMEN EXPERIENCE TO GAIN POWER AND WHEN WOMEN REACH POWER. THE EXTANT LITERATURE AS WELL AS THE THREE PILOT STUDIES WE HAVE CONDUCTED CONFIRM OUR RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS THAT DISPARITY FRAMING LEADS TO A DECREASED SENSE OF EFFICACY AND ALSO INCREASES THE ASSOCIATION OF POWER WITH MEN. POWER FRAMING INVOLVES A THREE LEVEL SEQUENCING WHICH BEGINS WITH VIVID DESCRIPTIONS OF WOMEN EXERCISING POWER EFFECTIVELY, THE UNDERREPRESENTATION OF WOMEN IN POWER DESPITE WOMEN'S EFFICACY, AND ACTION STEPS TO ADDRESS THE INEQUALITY. THE PILOT STUDIES WTOS AND PERCEPTION CONDUCTED WITH PROFESSOR EMILY BALCETIS AND HER LAB AT NYU HAVE SHOWN GREAT PROMISE FOR POWER FRAMING TO INCREASE A SENSE OF AGENCY AND THE IMPORTANCE OF INCREASING ACCESS TO POWER FOR WOMEN. IN THE FINAL PHASE OF THE STUDY, WE WILL ALSO MEASURE THE DEGREE TO WHICH POWER FRAMING MAY DIFFER DEPENDING UPON THE RACE OR ETHNICITY OF THE WOMEN, USING THE FIRST EVER INTERSECTIONAL IMPLICIT ASSOCIATION TEST (IAT) SHOWING PHASES OF WOMEN WHO PRESENT AS BLACK, WHITE, LATINX, EAST ASIAN, AND SOUTH ASIAN. - INTERSECTIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY PROJECT: IN ORDER TO CREATE THIS IAT, WE ARE BEGINNING TO CREATE A PHOTOGRAPH BANK OF IMAGES OF WOMEN AND MEN OF VARIOUS AGES, RACES, AND ETHNICITIES TO FILL A GAP THAT CONTRIBUTES TO THE DEARTH OF RESEARCH THAT IS GENUINELY INTERSECTIONAL.COLLABORATION WITH SUPERMAJORITY EDUCATION FUND WE ARE ALSO EMBARKING UPON A NEW 18-MONTH BODY OF WORK WITH SUPERMAJORITY TO CONTINUE TO UNDERSTAND HOW NARRATIVE SHIFT CAN INCREASE EQUITY IN ACCESS TO WOMEN IN POSITIONS WITHIN THE POLITICAL SPHERE. THE PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK RUNS OVER A TWELVE-EIGHTEEN MONTH PERIOD. PERCEPTION AND WTOS ARE WORKING TO CATALYZE A MODERNIZED UNDERSTANDING OF WOMEN'S POWER AND ITS RELATIONSHIP TO SOCIAL PROGRESS. IN AN EFFORT TO BRING THE BROADER MISSION INTO ACTIONABLE COMPONENTS, WTOS WILL PROVIDE ASSISTANCE IN DETERMINING THE GOALS WE WANT TO ACHIEVE AND MEASUREMENTS OF THEIR SUCCESS. STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT AND SURVEY LAUNCH: PERCEPTION AND WTOS WILL COLLABORATE TO DETERMINE APPROACH, DEVELOP MEASURABLE OUTCOMES FOR OBJECTIVES SET DURING VISION ARTICULATION, AND ESTABLISH SYSTEMS FOR PROCESS IMPLEMENTATION. WE WILL THEN COMMUNICATE FINDINGS, ANALYTICS AND APPROPRIATE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CONCEPT APPLICATION TO FORTIFY MISSION ALIGNMENT AND BEST PRACTICES.MECHANISMS TO UNDERSTAND OUTCOME DIFFERENCES IN EDUCATION WE ARE IN THE FINAL STAGES OF TWO MULTI-YEAR, MULTI-DISTRICT STUDIES OF TEACHERS AND RACE IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. BOSTON PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER SURVEY PROFESSOR LINDA TROPP AT UMASS AMHERST IS LEADING A STUDY FOCUSED UPON THE BOSTON PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT. THE STUDY INVOLVED A SURVEY INSTRUMENT INCLUDING IMPLICIT BIAS ASSESSMENTS AND RESPONSES TO VIGNETTES. A TOTAL OF 1,013 BOSTON PUBLIC SCHOOLS TEACHERS FROM 100 SCHOOLS RESPONDED TO THE SURVEY. THIS STUDY REVEALED SIGNIFICANT SUPPORT FOR THE VALUE OF DIVERSITY AND GENERALLY EGALITARIAN IDEALS AMONG TEACHERS, HOWEVER, IT ALSO REVEALED SLIGHTLY LOWER LEVELS OF CONFIDENCE INTERACTING WITH DIVERSE STUDENTS AND MANAGING DISCUSSIONS OF DIVERSITY, AND HIGHER CONCERNS ABOUT SEEMING PREJUDICED AMONG WHITE TEACHERS COMPARED TO TEACHERS OF COLOR. OF GREATEST CONCERN, THE STUDY REVEALED LOWER EXPECTATIONS THAT STUDENTS WILL ATTEND AND COMPLETE COLLEGE WHEN TEACHING CLASSROOMS WITH HIGHER PROPORTIONS OF BLACK AND LATINX STUDENTS, PARTICULARLY AMONG WHITE TEACHERS (COMPARED TO TEACHERS OF COLOR) AND HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS (COMPARED TO TEACHERS OF OTHER GRADE LEVELS). WE ARE PRESENTLY SEEKING TO GAIN ACCESS TO DATA FROM THE BPS THAT WOULD INCLUDE DISCIPLINARY OUTCOMES AS WELL AS ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT WHICH WE WILL CORRELATE WITH STUDY FINDINGS TO UNDERSTAND THE IMPACT OF ATTITUDES UPON OUTCOMES. THIS WILL ALLOW US TO DEVELOP TARGETED PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT.FEEDBACK FORWARD: STUDY OF WISE FEEDBACK INTERVENTIONPROFESSOR KENT HARBER AT RUTGERS UNIVERSITY IS LEADING A STUDY USING A COMPUTER INSTRUMENT, FEEDBACK FORWARD, CONCERNING POSITIVE FEEDBACK BIAS, WHICH IS THE TENDENCY FOR WHITE INSTRUCTORS TO PROVIDE MORE PRAISE AND LESS CRITICISM TO STUDENTS OF COLOR THAN TO WHITE STUDENTS. FEEDBACK FORWARD HAD THREE PRINCIPAL GOALS REGARDING THE POSITIVE BIAS: 1) TO RECONFIRM THAT THE BIAS IS PRODUCED BY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS, 2) TO SEE IF THE POSITIVE BIAS IS MITIGATED BY A BRIEF "WISE FEEDBACK" MANIPULATION-WHEREIN TEACHERS ARE GIVEN AN OPPORTUNITY TO ENDORSE CANDID HONEST FEEDBACK (I.E., "WISE" FEEDBACK), AND 3) TO SEE IF TEACHERS' OPEN-ENDED FEEDBACK TO STUDENTS OF COLOR IS CONFLICTED, WHEREIN THE CONTENT OF COMMENTS ARE POSITIVE, BUT THE DICTION IN WHICH THESE COMMENTS ARE CONVEYED IS MORE SIMPLISTIC AND LESS SOPHISTICATED. PRELIMINARY ANALYSES HAVE BEEN CONDUCTED ON A PORTION OF THE FEEDBACK FORWARD DATA. THESE RESULTS INCLUDE TEACHERS' RATINGS OF THEIR SUPPOSED STUDENT/WRITER AND THE ESSAY THAT THIS STUDENT/WRITER HAS PRODUCED, AND THE COPY EDIT COMMENTS THAT THEY MADE ON THE ESSAY THAT THEY REVIEWED. THE FINDINGS THUS FAR CONFIRM THE RISKS OF POSITIVE FEEDBACK BIAS TOWARD BLACK STUDENTS, BUT ALSO THE EFFICACY OF THE WISE FEEDBACK MANIPULATION. TEACHERS IN THE "WISE CONDITION", WHICH MADE SALIENT THE VIRTUES OF CANDOR, PROVIDED MORE CRITICAL FEEDBACK COMPARED TO TEACHERS IN THE "SENSITIVE CONDITION", BUT GENERALLY DID NOT DIFFER FROM THE NEUTRAL CONDITION. THIS IS A POTENTIALLY IMPORTANT FINDING; A VERY BRIEF AND EASY TO ADMINISTER EXERCISE APPEARS TO PRODUCE MORE VALID AND CHALLENGING FEEDBACK. THE WISE FEEDBACK MANIPULATION WAS EQUALLY EFFECTIVE REGARDLESS OF WRITER RACE; IT DID NOT SELECTIVELY ENHANCE FEEDBACK TO BLACK OR LATINX STUDENTS, BUT INSTEAD ENHANCED FEEDBACK QUALITY TO ALL STUDENTS (BLACK, LATINX, AND WHITE). THE QUALITATIVE FEEDBACK IS STILL UNDERWAY AND WILL BE FOLLOWED BY A "WISE FEEDBACK" PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT MODULE DESIGNED AND LED BY THE PERCEPTION INSTITUTE TO SEE IF A MORE EXTENDED MODULE HAS EVEN GREATER EFFECTS.

THE CPC CENTER AND ACTION FUND HAVE HELPED DEVELOP IDEAS FOR THE PROGRESSIVE AGENDA AND, THROUGH THE ACTION FUND, COORDINATE PROGRESSIVE GROUPS TO BOLSTER THE PROGRESSIVE POSITION. UNDER THE EXTRAORDINARY LEADERSHIP OF PRAMILA JAYAPAL, THE CPC HAS PLAYED A KEY ROLE IN ATTEMPTING TO SALVAGE FUNDAMENTAL REFORMS IN A PERIOD WHERE ANY SINGLE SENATE DEMOCRAT CAN PUT A SPANNER IN THE WORKS. CPC MEMBERS HAVE ALSO DRIVEN REFORMS SEEKING TO CURB PRESIDENTIAL WAR-MAKING POWERS, AMONG OTHER ISSUES.FINALLY, WE REMAIN ACTIVE ON THE INFORMAL PROGRESSIVE ROUNDTABLE THAT WE HELPED PUT TOGETHER WITH SENATOR JEFF MERKLEY THAT BRINGS TOGETHER PROGRESSIVE SENATORS WITH LEADING PROGRESSIVE MULTI-ISSUE GROUPS TO TALK STRATEGY, SHARE IDEAS AND INFORMATION.
