The effect of chilly climates is chilling. It murders our ability to benefit from achievement:
"Unfortunately, several STEM domains, including physics, engineering, and computer science (Cheryan et al., 2017), create “chilly climates” (Hall & Sandler, 1982) that assign women lower status and raise doubts about their ability and belonging (Walton et al., 2015). Diversity may be just as likely to harm as it is to help performance in such situations (see Mannix & Neale, 2005)."
