鉴于历史上和持续的妇女在物理学代表性不足,重要的是要了解高中物理可能发挥的作用,吸引女学生的物理职业。从900多名女大学生在物理学的数据,我们研究这些妇女成为感兴趣的物理职业和不同的来源的认可(重要的物理身份发展),可能会影响他们的选择在某些时间点。结果提供了乐观的,因为许多这些女学生,即使是那些以前没有打算从事科学事业,开始打算在高中物理职业和高中物理教师的认可预测这些意图有显着的影响。
Given the historic and continued underrepresentation of women in physics, it is important to understand the role that high school physics might play in attracting female students to physics careers. Drawing on data from over 900 female undergraduates in physics, we examine when these women became interested in physics careers and different sources of recognition (important for physics identity development) that may have affected their choices at certain time points. The results provide optimism since many of these female students, even those not previously intending science careers, began to intend physics careers in high school and recognition from high school physics teachers had a significant effect on predicting these intentions.
