如果我们希望看到我们的STEM（科学，技术，工程和数学）扩大参与的努力影响变革，我们还必须批判性地反思和扩大我们研究STEM参与的科学方法，采用最适合手头问题的方法和框架。在这篇文章中，我们讨论了关键的混合方法论方法和交叉框架如何提供一种扩大参与的科学的可能性，这种科学深入理解，情境化和解决STEM包容的复杂障碍。首先，我们描述了建议的方法和框架，说明它们如何使我们能够改进我们收集，测量，解释和分析数据的方式。接下来，我们提供一些具体的例子，说明这些方法和框架如何丰富了我们的科学工作。最后，我们为寻求扩大STEM参与科学的研究人员提供了一些最终建议。
If we wish to see our STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) broadening participation efforts affect change, we must also critically reflect upon and broaden our scientific approaches to studying STEM participation, adopting methodologies and frameworks that most appropriately fit the problems and questions at hand. In this article, we discuss how critical mixed-methodological approaches and intersectionality frameworks offer the possibility of a science of broadening participation that deeply understands, contextualizes, and addresses complex barriers to STEM inclusion. First, we describe the suggested approaches and frameworks, illustrating how they allow us to improve how we collect, measure, interpret, and analyze data. Next, we provide some specific examples of how such approaches and frameworks have enriched our scientific work. Last, we offer some final recommendations for researchers seeking to broaden the science of broadening participation in STEM.
