YOUNG BLACK Britons often feel forced to change their appearance and sometimes even alter their names to fit in at work according to a new survey.report, the largest ever survey of Black Generation Z members in the UK, people born between the mid-1990s and early 2010s – found that as they leave education and begin their careers, they expect to experience discrimination in the workplace.
Only 31 per cent of Black Gen Z members feel able to be their authentic selves, compared to 66 per cent of White Gen Z. the research found. This means the vast majority of Black Gen Z feel the need to change their self-presentation to ‘fit in’ with their colleagues.The report said that when they are unable to be their authentic selves at work, Black Gen Z can feel stressed, anxious and demotivated, which has a negative impact on their mental health and productivity.

The Impact of Household Chaos and Dietary Intake on Executive Function in Young ChildrenChildren’s executive functions (EFs) emerge over time and can be shaped by household environments and dietary intake. However, there is a lack of knowledge about how these factors influence EFs in children aged 18–24 months. This study tested a model exploring the relations between parent-reported dietary intake, household chaos, and child EF. The sample consisted of 294 families participating in the STRONG Kids2 birth cohort study of nutrition and child health. Caregivers completed the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), the Confusion, Hubbub, and Order Scale (CHAOS), and the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function®-Preschool Version (BRIEF-P) to assess model variables. Regression analyses revealed a significant and independent association between assorted snacks and processed foods and two EF subscales. There were also significant associations between household chaos and each EF subscale. There was no significant moderation effect. These findings suggest that family households characterized by dysregulation are associated with children’s EF difficulties during early childhood and that the role of unhealthy dietary intake in child EF should be explored further. Future longitudinal studies that include multi-method approaches are needed to document the mechanisms through which household chaos impacts child EF over time.
