The Influence of Professional Engineering Organizations on Women and Underrepresented Minority Students’ Fit
Our work focuses on women and underrepresented minority (URM) students’ cultural models of engineering success (CMES) or beliefs about doing well in engineering. Because of its consequential effect on persistence, we pay special attention to the fit domain of CMES—student feelings of belonging in their engineering program. We examine 1) how student fit is affected by participatory social capital (i.e., participation in professional engineering or…
How stereotypes and relationships influence women and underrepresented minority students' fit in engineering
Women and underrepresented minority (URM) undergraduates declare and complete science, technology, engineering, and mathematics majors at different rates in comparison to majority groups. Explanations of these differences have long been deficit oriented, focusing on aptitude or similar characteristics, but more recent work focuses on institutional contexts, such as academic climate and feelings of belonging (fit). This study examines the experien…
Social Capital From Professional Engineering Organizations and the Persistence of Women and Underrepresented Minority Undergraduates
Professional engineering organizations (PEOs) have the potential to provide women and underrepresented and minoritized (URM) students with social capital (i.e., resources gained from relationships) that aids their persistence in their engineering undergraduate programs and into the workforce. We hypothesize that women and URM students engineering students who participate in PEOs are more likely to persist in their engineering major and that PEOs …
Pursuing an engineering major
As part of a longitudinal research effort that examines the influence of social capital on differential persistence and retention among undergraduate engineering majors, this study examines how engineering degree-related social capital differs for first-year engineering students by gender and ethno-racial groups. Social capital is operationalized as a person’s network of relationships with individuals who hold influential positions (e.g. parent, …
How Do Propensity Score Methods Measure Up in the Presence of Measurement Error? A Monte Carlo Study
Considering that the absence of measurement error in research is a rare phenomenon and its effects can be dramatic, we examine the impact of measurement error on propensity score (PS) analysis used to minimize selection bias in behavioral and social observational studies. A Monte Carlo study was conducted to explore the effects of measurement error on the treatment effect and balance estimates in PS analysis across seven different PS conditioning…

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Pathways
This article examines how high school science and mathematics course-taking creates pathways toward future baccalaureate degree attainment in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) majors in Florida 4-year universities using Burkam and Lee's (2003) Burkam, D. T. and Lee, V. E. 2003. Mathematics, foreign language, and science coursetaking and the NELS:88 transcript data (NCES 2003-01)., Washington, DC: U.S. Department of Educatio…
Student Engagement in U.S. Urban High School Mathematics and Science Classrooms
Accountability in a Postdesegregation Era
In the wake of both the end of court-ordered school desegregation and the growing popularity of accountability as a mechanism to maximize student achievement, the authors explore the association between racial segregation and the percentage of students passing high-stakes tests in Florida’s schools. Results suggest that segregation matters in predicting school-level performance on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test after control for other …
