项目摘要

In STEM education, mentorship has become an important means of increasing the participation of underrepresented minoritized (URM) students, including women, Native/Black/Latinx Americans, persons with disabilities, bilingual students, and low-socioeconomic status (SES) youth. This B2 3.0 project will identify new constructs of culturally relevant mentorship (CRM), develop new survey instruments for assessing CRM, and examine the associations between CRM and STEM identity and career interest of URM students. The findings will offer insights for practitioners and policymakers to target resources and design interventions that can improve STEM outcomes of URM students through CRM. This project will also support research publications and NSF proposal submissions of faculty and doctoral students at MSIs, as well as strengthen collaborative networks among STEM education and social/behavioral science researchers through a STEM coalition that involves more than 30 pre-college STEM programs and 10 MSIs across the country.This B2 3.0 project, co-led by researchers at both MSIs and non-MSIs, will make substantive contributions to knowledge in the fields of mentorship, social psychology, and broadening participation in STEM. It integrates cross-disciplinary theoretical perspectives to identify novel CRM constructs and link them to URM students’ STEM identity and career interests. It also addresses one of the most critical measurement needs in mentorship research and STEM education by developing and validating two new sets of CRM survey scales for mentors and mentees. Specifically, this project will conduct: (1) a comparative case study to explore and describe important CRM constructs and case types of mentors for URM adolescents; (2) a multi-step scale development study to develop and validate two new sets of CRM survey instruments for mentors and mentees; and (3) a large-scale survey study with a diverse sample to analyze the relationships between mentors’ CRM practices and URM mentees’ CRM perceptions, STEM identity, and STEM career interest.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

在STEM教育中，师徒关系已成为提高代表性不足的少数族裔（URM）学生（包括女性、原住民/黑人/拉丁裔美国人、残疾人、双语学生和低社会经济地位（SES）青年）参与的重要手段。本B2 3.0项目将确定文化相关师徒关系（CRM）的新结构，开发新的评估CRM的调查工具，并研究CRM与URM学生STEM身份和职业兴趣之间的关系。研究结果将为从业者和政策制定者提供见解，以确定资源和设计干预措施，通过CRM改善URM学生的STEM成果。该项目还将支持msi教师和博士生的研究出版物和NSF提案提交，并通过一个涉及全国30多个大学预科STEM项目和10个msi的STEM联盟，加强STEM教育和社会/行为科学研究人员之间的合作网络。这个B2 3.0项目由msi和非msi的研究人员共同领导，将为指导、社会心理学和扩大STEM参与领域的知识做出实质性贡献。它整合了跨学科的理论观点，以确定新的CRM结构，并将它们与URM学生的STEM身份和职业兴趣联系起来。通过为导师和学员开发和验证两套新的CRM调查量表，它还解决了导师研究和STEM教育中最关键的测量需求之一。具体而言，本项目将进行：(1)比较案例研究，探索和描述URM青少年重要的CRM结构和导师的案例类型；(2)一项多步骤规模发展研究，为导师和学员开发和验证两套新的CRM调查工具；(3)采用不同样本的大规模调查研究，分析导师的CRM实践与URM学员的CRM认知、STEM认同和STEM职业兴趣之间的关系。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
