The diversity efforts disparity in academic medicine can be defined as part of the minority tax that negatively impacts faculty who are underrepresented in medicine. This disparity can be defined as differences between minority and non-minority faculty in their recruitment or assignment by the institution to address diversity issues, climate concerns and conflict around inclusion in academic medicine. It can manifest as disproportionate committee service, being asked to be the face of diversity for the school on websites or brochures or being asked to serve on diversity task forces or initiatives. In this article, the author further characterizes the diversity efforts disparity and provides recommendations for how to identify and address it in academic medicine.
学术医学中的多样性努力差距可以被定义为少数群体税收的一部分，对医学中代表性不足的教职员工产生负面影响。这种差距可以定义为机构在招聘或分配少数族裔和非少数族裔教职员工方面的差异，以解决多样性问题、气候问题和学术医学中的包容性冲突。它可以表现为不成比例的委员会服务，被要求在学校的网站或宣传册上代表多样性，或者被要求参与多样性工作组或倡议。在本文中，作者进一步描述了多样性努力差距，并就如何在学术医学中识别和解决这一问题提出了建议。
