- 요약Persistent patterns of inequalities have led to the underrepresentation of minoritized students in higher education, particularly within STEM fields. A great deal of sociological research has investigated the various causes and implications of these inequalities, while educational research has investigated methods to increase the recruitment and retention of underrepresented students. In this dissertation, I apply concepts from social psychological Identity Theory to trends from educational research, using novel survey data from a sample of undergraduate students at a large midwestern university. Specifically, I investigate how students define STEM, how they come to identify with it, and what drives their persistence in or departure from initially declared STEM majors.
