项目摘要
Despite significant advances to diversify the biomedical workforce, the proportion of Ph.D. degrees awarded to
Latinos is still 7% and only 48% of those who enroll in a doctorate program complete their degree. The project
METAS+ (Maintaining, Engaging, and Tracking Alumni in Science and Health Research; also GOALS+ in
Spanish) seeks to diversify the biomedical workforce by testing, with well-designed scientific approaches, the
efficacy of training interventions that can equip Latino undergraduates to successfully transition to biomedical
graduate programs. The University of Puerto Rico at Cayey (UPR-C) is ideally positioned to address this
challenge because its student population is 100% Latino. Approximately 300 UPR-C students engaged in
UGR yearly and most seek to pursue graduate studies in STEM or biomedical areas. METAS+ seeks to test
the effectiveness of 1) previous mentored UGR experiences provided at UPR-C and 2) an innovative on
campus and on-line group coaching intervention that is envisioned as a reinforcement to such UGR
experiences. Results will be assessed at three stages of a student’s pathway into science: 1) college
graduation, 2) enrollment in a biomedical graduate program and 3) the first year of graduate school; something
not done previously. To achieve robustness in the analysis, we will use Propensity Score Matching, a statistical
method that mimics experimental approaches and controls for self-selection-bias by identifying and matching
Latinos with similar socio-demographic and academic characteristics who only differ in the treatment variable
(UGR). To test the efficacy of the new coaching reinforcement, we will use an experimental design by
randomly assigning 80 students to a control group (no intervention) and an experimental group (coaching). In
the long-term, the project is expected to reveal the benefit of evidenced-based sustainable interventions that
can cast a broad net of participants at Minority Serving Institutions to truly diversify the scientific workforce.
尽管在生物医学劳动力多样化方面取得了重大进展,但博士学位的比例仍然很低。学位授予
拉丁裔仍然占7%,只有48%的博士生完成了学位。项目
METAS+(维护,参与和跟踪科学与健康研究校友;也是目标+,
西班牙)寻求通过测试多样化的生物医学劳动力,与精心设计的科学方法,
培训干预措施的有效性,可以使拉丁美洲大学生成功过渡到生物医学
研究生课程。位于卡伊的波多黎各大学(UPR-C)是解决这一问题的理想场所
因为它的学生是100%的拉丁裔。大约300名普审委学生参加了
UGR每年和大多数寻求在干或生物医学领域攻读研究生课程。METAS+寻求测试
(1)在普遍定期审议第三次会议上提供的先前指导的UGR经验的有效性,
校园和在线小组辅导干预,被设想为加强这样的UGR
经验结果将在学生进入科学的三个阶段进行评估:1)大学
毕业,2)生物医学研究生课程的入学和3)研究生院的第一年;一些
以前没有做过。为了在分析中实现鲁棒性,我们将使用倾向分数匹配,这是一种统计方法。
通过识别和匹配来模拟实验方法和控制自我选择偏差的方法
具有相似社会人口和学术特征的拉丁裔,仅在治疗变量上有所不同
(UGR)。为了测试新教练强化的有效性,我们将使用实验设计,
将80名学生随机分配到控制组(无干预)和实验组(指导)。在
从长远来看,该项目预计将揭示基于证据的可持续干预措施的好处,
可以在少数民族服务机构中广泛地网罗参与者,以真正实现科学劳动力的多样化。
