在国际上,人们担心需要做更多的工作来解决科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)学科在学位层面上的不平等参与问题。作为回应,旨在更好地了解影响年轻人参与STEM的因素的研究集中在一系列因素上。本文通过分析“科学资本”和“STEM认同”与STEM参与的关系,为现有研究做出贡献。我们利用了3310名年龄在21-22岁之间的本科毕业生的数据,其中523人学习了STEM学科。我们发现,科学资本和STEM身份与学习STEM学位有统计学显著相关(科学资本与大学STEM学习弱相关,STEM身份与大学STEM学习强相关)。采用布尔迪乌斯的视角,我们讨论了我们的发现对高等教育的意义,以及可以做些什么来支持学生,特别是那些目前在STEM中代表性不足的学生,例如通过更好地认识和发展他们的科学资本,并支持他们在STEM中的归属感。
Internationally, there are concerns that more needs to be done to address the inequalities in participation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) subjects at the degree level. In response, research focused on better understanding what influences young people’s STEM participation has focused on a range of factors. This paper contributes to the existing research with an analysis of how “science capital” and “STEM identity” relate to STEM participation. We draw on data from 3310 young people aged 21–22 who had undertaken an undergraduate degree, 523 of whom studied a STEM subject. We found that science capital and STEM identity were statistically significantly related to studying a STEM degree (with science capital being weakly and STEM identity strongly associated with STEM study at university). Adopting a Bourdieusian lens, we discuss what our findings mean for higher education and what more could be done to support students, especially those who are currently under-represented in STEM, such as through better recognising and developing their science capital and supporting their sense of belonging in STEM.
