Such overrepresentation poses severe costs to the rest of society\u2014women of all races, men of color, and gender-nonconforming individuals\u2014particularly within the domain of health, where clinical trials have historically prioritized the experiences, perspectives, and health outcomes of white men. To address this issue, we must understand when and how the tendency to view white males as default people develops across childhood, as well as the environmental factors that underlie this phenomenon.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>The study will seek to understand how &#8220;children&#8217;s default representations of people begin to favor whiteness and maleness over other identities,&#8221; according to the description.\n<\/p>\n<p>NIH explained the grant was awarded as part of a program that enables &#8220;promising predoctoral students to obtain mentored research&#8221; for their doctoral dissertation plans.\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The purpose of the training grant is to help postdoctoral students gain the research skills needed to eventually become independent researchers,&#8221; NIH told<br \/>\n<a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/hhs-gives-nyu-40000-study-children-favor-whiteness-maleness\">Fox News Digital<\/a><br \/>\n in a statement.\n<\/p>\n<p><b><br \/>\n<a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><br \/>\n<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>In this particular study, the NIH said NYU&#8217;s &#8220;research will address the developmental trajectory of children&#8217;s beliefs that often tend to select whiteness and maleness over other identities when thinking of who represents a typical person.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Department of Health and Human Services awarded New York University a $40,000 grant to study why children believe &#8220;that white males are the default person.&#8221; The grant was<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1543840,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1543837","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1543837","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1543837"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1543837\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1543840"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1543837"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1543837"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1543837"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
