Abstract

Increasing representation of people with disabilities in science and engineering will require systemic changes to the culture around support and accommodations. Equitable interview practices can help foster such changes. We, an interdisciplinary group of disabled and nondisabled early-career scientists who care deeply about making science more accessible to all, present a framework of suggestions based on Universal Design principles for improving the accessibility and equitability of interviews for people with disabilities and other underrepresented groups. We discuss potential challenges that may arise when implementing these suggestions and provide questions to guide discussions about addressing them.

摘要

要提高残疾人士在科学与工程领域的代表性，就需要对支持与便利方面的文化进行系统性变革。公平的面试做法有助于推动此类变革。我们是一个由残疾和非残疾的早期职业科学家组成的跨学科团队，深切关注让所有人都能更方便地接触科学。我们基于通用设计原则，提出了一个建议框架，以提高残疾人士及其他代表性不足群体面试的可及性和公平性。我们讨论了实施这些建议时可能出现的潜在挑战，并提供了一些问题，以指导关于应对这些挑战的讨论。
