Measuring Organizational Climate For Diversity, Amy L. Vick
Psychology Theses & Dissertations
The Climate for Diversity Index measures three dimensions associated with the ability of organizations or units to create an environment that allows members of all sociocultural backgrounds to participate and fully develop. The climate for diversity impacts individual outcomes such as general job satisfaction, affective commitment, identification with a psychological group/department, organizational citizenship behavior, and the intent to turnover.

Trotter Review
The Black community in the United States is undergoing major demographic changes that point to greater ethnic diversity. There are many ethnic groups that compose the Black community today, including people from Africa, the Caribbean, South America, and other parts of the world.

Ethnic Studies Review
Eoyang's volume is a collection of personal essays that call for a more diverse conception of American culture and society. While the latter, of course, is a familiar if not universally-accepted theme, this actually is an unconventional and highly effective book because of the range of issues it covers and the author's basic writing strategy.

[Review Of] Thomas J. Labelle And Christopher R. Ward, Ethnic Studies And Multiculturalism, Otis L. Scott
Ethnic Studies Review
