尽管近年来成绩有所提高，但理工科非主流背景的女生人数仍然偏低。这项纵向民族志研究追溯了来自非主导背景的女孩在中学期间从事学校，俱乐部和家庭科学相关活动时的身份工作。建立身份轨迹的概念论证，作者讨论了身份工作的持续性，累积性和争议性，以及促进轨迹关键转变的机制。作者认为，当女孩的身份工作得到认可，支持和利用扩大参与科学的机会时，她们会在科学中看到可能的未来自我。这一过程产生了（可能的）自我和科学的分层意义，并重新配置了对科学的有意义的参与。
The underrepresentation of girls from nondominant backgrounds in the sciences and engineering continues despite recent gains in achievement. This longitudinal ethnographic study traces the identity work that girls from nondominant backgrounds do as they engage in science-related activities across school, club, and home during the middle school years. Building a conceptual argument for identity trajectories, the authors discuss the ongoing, cumulative, and contentious nature of identity work and the mechanisms that foster critical shifts in trajectories. The authors argue that the girls view possible future selves in science when their identity work is recognized, supported, and leveraged toward expanded opportunities for engagement in science. This process yields layered meanings of (possible) selves and of science and reconfigures meaningful participation in science.
