One-fifth of workplace barriers faced by minority researchers in behavioural science are related to race, a study says (R. R. Kameny et al. J. CareerDev. 41, 43-61; 2014). In addition to barriers such as a lack of mentors, early- to mid-career US minority researchers identified race-related hurdles such as colleagues' low expectations of performance and a lack of support for studies on minority groups. Minority researchers must seek help from faculty members who are capable of changing the department culture, says co-author Rebecca Kameny, a psychologist at the research company 3C Institute in Cary, North Carolina.
