物理科学和工程领域的性别不平衡是科学教育、工业和政策领域长期存在的一个有据可查的问题。目前的研究就是以这一问题为动机，特别侧重于空间科学，空间科学已被作为一门能够激励男孩和女孩的物理科学加以推广。对来自11个欧洲国家的8000多名9-16岁的学生进行了调查，首次对学生对空间科学的看法进行了大规模调查。在我们的样本中，对空间科学的热情是显而易见的，在驱动对空间科学的态度方面，个体差异比背景特征（性别，年龄，国家）更重要。然而，尽管男孩和女孩都有这些积极的态度和看法，但表示有兴趣从事空间科学职业的学生，特别是女生，要少得多。
Gender imbalance in the physical sciences and engineering is a longstanding and well-documented concern within science education, industry, and policy. The current study is motivated by this issue and focuses on space science in particular, which has been promoted as a physical science with the capacity to inspire both boys and girls. A survey of over 8000 pupils aged 9–16 from 11 European countries was utilised to provide the first large-scale investigation of school students’ perceptions of space science. Enthusiasm for space science was clear within our sample, and individual differences were more important than background characteristics (gender, age, country) in driving attitudes to space science. However, although these positive attitudes and perceptions were shared by boys and girls, substantially fewer students, particularly females, expressed interest in pursuing a career in space science.
