A place for all? Feminine gender expression and communal opportunities in STEM bolster STEM belonging and motivation for sexual and gender minorities
Despite the importance of a strong science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) workforce, the culture of STEM deters many groups, including sexual and gender minorities (SGM) from entering STEM fields (i.e., women, Latino/a, Native American, first‐generation students). Because SGM individuals’ STEM belonging and motivation are believed to follow similar psychological processes to other underrepresented groups in STEM, we examined how…
Concordance between Sars-CoV-2 index individuals and their household contacts on index individual Covid-19 transmission cofactors
Our results suggest a need to survey index individuals directly in order to accurately capture their transmission cofactors, rather than relying on their household contacts to report on their behavior. The lag in enrolling participants into CoVPN 3502-01 also highlights the importance of timely enrollment to minimize recall bias
History of Rectal Product Use and Country of Residence Influence Preference for Rectal Microbicide Dosage Forms Among Young Sexual and Gender Minorities
A latent trajectory analysis of young sexual and gender minorities’ adherence to three rectal microbicide placebo formulations (MTN-035; a randomized crossover trial)

Correlates of Dapivirine Vaginal Ring Acceptance among Women Participating in an Open Label Extension Trial
Correlates of Adherence to the Dapivirine Vaginal Ring for HIV-1 Prevention
Acceptability of the Dapivirine Vaginal Ring for HIV-1 Prevention and Association with Adherence in a Phase III Trial
We evaluated the acceptability of the 25 mg dapivirine vaginal ring (DVR) as an HIV prevention intervention and its influence on DVR adherence in the MTN-020/ASPIRE phase III trial. Acceptability measures were captured using ACASI at month 3 and end of product use (median 24 months, IQR 15-30). Monthly returned rings were classified as nonadherent if dapivirine release rate was ≤ 0.9 mg/month. Associations between acceptability measures and nonad…

Is the Lone Scientist an American Dream? Perceived Communal Opportunities in STEM Offer a Pathway to Closing U.S.–Asia Gaps in Interest and Positivity
The United States lags behind many Asian countries in engagement in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). An unexplored factor in these country-level differences may be U.S.–Asia gaps in perceptions of the goal opportunities provided by STEM. Across four studies, U.S. students perceived fewer communal opportunities (working with/helping/relationships with others) in STEM than Asian students; this differential perception contri…

A Goal Congruity Model of Role Entry, Engagement, and Exit
The goal congruity perspective provides a theoretical framework to understand how motivational processes influence and are influenced by social roles. In particular, we invoke this framework to understand communal goal processes as proximal motivators of decisions to engage in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). STEM fields are not perceived as affording communal opportunities to work with or help others, and understanding t…
Use of a Vaginal Ring Containing Dapivirine for HIV-1 Prevention in Women
BACKGROUND: Antiretroviral medications that are used as prophylaxis can prevent acquisition of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. However, in clinical trials among African women, the incidence of HIV-1 infection was not reduced, probably because of low adherence. Longer-acting methods of drug delivery, such as vaginal rings, may simplify use of antiretroviral medications and provide HIV-1 protection. METHODS: We conducted a ph…

Quality of evidence revealing subtle gender biases in science is in the eye of the beholder
Significance Ever-growing empirical evidence documents a gender bias against women and their research—and favoring men—in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. Our research examined how receptive the scientific and public communities are to experimental evidence demonstrating this gender bias, which may contribute to women’s underrepresentation within STEM. Results from our three experiments, using general-public and un…

Differential effects of female and male candidates on system justification
Despite women's increasing representation in elected offices across a range of countries, women remain a minority of elected officials. Although greater gender equality in political leadership may be assumed to promote gender equality in other domains, the presence of female candidates might ironically facilitate attitudes associated with legitimizing gender inequality. Using experimental methods, we demonstrate that the presence of a female poli…
Malleability in communal goals and beliefs influences attraction to stem careers
The goal congruity perspective posits that 2 distinct social cognitions predict attraction to science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) fields. First, individuals may particularly value communal goals (e.g., working with or helping others), due to either chronic individual differences or the salience of these goals in particular contexts. Second, individuals hold beliefs about the activities that facilitate or impede these goals, or…
Seeking Congruity Between Goals and Roles
Although women have nearly attained equality with men in several formerly male-dominated fields, they remain underrepresented in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). We argue that one important reason for this discrepancy is that STEM careers are perceived as less likely than careers in other fields to fulfill communal goals (e.g., working with or helping other people). Such perceptions might disproportionately …
Determinants of failure to access care in mothers referred to HIV treatment programs in Nairobi, Kenya
BACKGROUND: As prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) programs and HIV treatment programs rapidly expand in parallel, it is important to determine factors that influence the transition of HIV-infected women from maternal to continuing care. DESIGN: This study aimed to determine rates and co-factors of accessing HIV care by HIV-infected women exiting maternal care. A cross-sectional survey of women who had participated in a PMTC…

Newborn Infants' Preference for Attractive Faces
Several previous experiments have found that newborn and young infants will spend more time looking at attractive faces when these are shown paired with faces judged by adults to be unattractive. Two experimental conditions are described with the aim of finding whether the “attractiveness effect” results from attention to internal or external facial features, or both. Pairs of attractive and less attractive faces (as judged by adults) were shown …
