Pre-Professor Program: A Virtual Training Program to Improve Faculty Diversity.
Article in Applied Human Factors and Ergonomics Conference, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The number of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) degrees awarded to underrepresented students has increased over the past two decades, but these graduates still represent a small percentage of STEM career professionals (Fry et al., 2021) and faculty members (Bennett et al., 2020). For diversifying faculty, Bennet et al. identified a barrier to be the lack of programs to support underrepresented groups at the postdoctoral and early career stages. The Pre-Professor Program (PREPP) was designed to support advanced doctoral students' and postdoctoral scholars' transition to faculty positions by engaging them in a semester-long virtual program within the California State University (CSU) system, which consists of 23 campuses across the state of California. PREPP Fellows receive individual mentorship from an experienced PREPP Mentor who engages them during weekly meetings to explore 15 topics and a few dozen activities related to teaching, service, and research at comprehensive and ethnically diverse institutions, as well as the process for applying for tenure track positions at such institutions. PREPP Mentors also discuss tenure and promotion processes and coordinate various campus and departmental activities to introduce PREPP Fellows to campus resources and learn perspectives of faculty life within their discipline. Initially designed as a local, in-person program, PREPP morphed into an online, virtual training program that allowed the program to grow and be implemented throughout the entire CSU system. The flexibility provided by the virtual platform enabled PREPP participants to be effectively immersed in learning about faculty life at a CSU campus without requiring them to be in the local area. This paper describes PREPP and how it can be used as a model to provide a pathway for highly competitive and diverse applicants to faculty positions.
