Many inside the conservative echo chamber raise the specter of voter fraud to justify their ever-expanding efforts to limit or stop early voting, and impose voter identification laws that discourage older, minority voters from exercising their right to vote.
But management's bias towards youth and discriminatory images of what the readers and customers of the Times should look like came at the cost of pushing out the division's most productive and valuable older, minority and female employees.
Findings from this study suggest that cognitive impairment did not inhibit older minority participants' ability to use a variety of pain intensity scales.
Undocumented workers can "displace," to use the term of labor economists, African-Americans and other minorities who are young and seeking their first jobs or older minority workers with few skills.
In these older minority samples, the gender gap is replicated with girls reporting higher scores of emotional problems than boys.
Studies that only include older minority adolescents (aged 15 and older) suggest that the gender gap may emerge later in ethnic minority adolescents [ 29, 30].
The fact that in our study older minority girls had lower global self-worth scores suggests that they may have had more time to internalize negative stereotypical attitudes and stigma.
The recent demographic changes relating to the increasing numbers of older people from ethnic minority backgrounds ageing in their Western host countries (Burholt 2004; Jimenez et al. 2012; Victor, Martin and Zubair 2012) have led to a greater need and interest in researching these older minority populations (Victor, Martin and Zubair 2012; Vincent, Phillipson and Downs 2006).
The faces pain scale was the preferred scale in older minority adults in America, but showed lower correlations to other scales such as verbal descriptor scales, numeric rating scale or a pain thermometer, which suggests faces scales might measure a broader construct incorporating pain [ 24].
