Race and gender differences in how sense of belonging influences decisions to major in STEM
Background Women and students of color are widely underrepresented in most STEM fields.
In order to investigate this underrepresentation, we interviewed 201 college seniors …

The nature of science identity and its role as the driver of student choices
P Vincent-Ruz, CD Schunn - International journal of STEM education, 2018 - Springer
Background A major concern in science education involves the under-representation of
many groups in science and technology fields, especially by gender (Brotman and Moore, J …

Female students with A's have similar physics self-efficacy as male students with C's in introductory courses: A cause for alarm?
Self-efficacy can affect performance, career goals, and persistence. Prior studies show that
female students have lower self-efficacy than male students in various science, technology …

Am I a science person? A strong science identity bolsters minority students' sense of belonging and performance in college
Identifying as a “science person” is predictive of science success, but the mechanisms
involved are not well-understood. We hypothesized that science identity predicts success …
