dc.description.abstract"The current study aims to experimentally investigate the experiences of hiring discrimination based on traits such as gender identity and mental health status. Participants (N = 193) were asked to read a job description and rate the LinkedIn style profiles of eight different fictitious applicants on characteristics such as role suitability, likeability as a coworker, and overall hireability. Participants were then asked to recall and select which three profiles they would most recommend for hire. Results suggest that profiles that disclosed a nontraditional gender identity or mental health message were rated as less suitable for the position, less likeable as a coworker, and less hirable overall than profiles that did not disclose a nontraditional gender identity or mental health message. Further research is needed to confirm and expand on results."en_US
