Losing its expected communal value: how stereotype threat undermines women’s identity as research scientists.

Smith JL, Deemer ED, Thoman DB, Brown ER.
UIID-AD: 3758
2015;443-466. doi: 10.1007/s11218-015-9296-8 10.1007/978-1-4612-3588-0_3; Eccles, J.S., Subjective task value and the Eccles model of achievement-r.

The worry or concern over confirming negative gender group stereotypes, called stereotype threat, is one explanation for women’s worldwide under-representation in undergraduate science classes and majors. But how does stereotype threat translate into fewer women motivated for science? In...

Motivation under the microscope: Understanding undergraduate science students' multiple motivations for research.

Smith JL, Deemer ED, Thoman DB, Zazworsky L.
UIID-AD: 643
2014;38:496-512. doi: 10.1007/s11031-013-9388-8.

Little is known about students' motivations toward scientific research or the implications of pursuing multiple research motivations simultaneously. We conducted latent profile analysis (a person-centered statistical technique) on 1,052 undergraduate students from three universities enrolled in physics, chemistry, and...

Women's Science Major Satisfaction: Regulatory Focus and the Critical Mass Hypothesis.

Deemer EricD.
UIID-AD: 3385
2015;60-71.

Women contend with gender bias in certain science contexts, which suggests they may be likely to adopt prevention-focused modes of regulation aimed at maintaining safety and security in such settings. This study represented an integrated test of regulatory focus...

Women's science major satisfaction: Regulatory focus and the critical mass hypothesis.

Deemer EricD.
UIID-AD: 1630
2015;42:60-71. doi: 10.1177/0894845314543190.

Women contend with gender bias in certain science contexts, which suggests they may be likely to adopt prevention-focused modes of regulation aimed at maintaining safety and security in such settings. This study represented an integrated test of regulatory focus...

Feeling the threat: Stereotype threat as a contextual barrier to women’s science career choice intentions.

Deemer EricD, Smith JessiL, Thoman DustinB, Chase JustinP.
UIID-AD: 4509
2014;141-158. doi: 10.1177/0894845313483003.

Social cognitive career theory (SCCT; Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 1994, 2000) holds that contextual barriers inhibit self-efficacy and goal choice intentions from points both near and far from the active career development situation. The current study examined the influence...

Research motives of faculty in academic STEM: Measurement invariance of the Research Motivation Scale.

Deemer EricD, Mahoney KevinT, Ball JacquelineHebert.
UIID-AD: 1632
2012;20:182-195. doi: 10.1177/1069072711420856.

The authors examined the psychometric properties of the Research Motivation Scale (RMS) in a sample of faculty members (N = 337) in university science departments. It was hypothesized that the RMS would evidence partial measurement invariance across tenure status...

The development and initial validation of the work volition scale–student version.

The Counseling Psychologist

Duffy, Diemer, Jadidian.
UIID-EM: 28
2012;40:291-319. doi: 10.1177/0011000011417147.

The present study sought to develop and validate an instrument to measure work volition, defined as the perceived capacity to make occupational choices despite constraints, among college students. In Study 1, an exploratory factor analysis was conducted with a...

Development and validation of a measure of threatening gender stereotypes in science: A factor mixture analysis.

Deemer EricD, Lin Chaihua, Graham Ryan, Soto Cristina.
UIID-AD: 3978
2016;145-161. doi: 10.1177/1069072714565772.

Despite increasing evidence that negative stereotypes adversely affect the career development of women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, measuring their effects has been a challenge. This study focuses specifically on the sciences, since some, particularly physics, are notably...

Academic Procrastination in STEM: Interactive Effects of Stereotype Threat and Achievement Goals.

Smith JL, Deemer ED, Carroll AN, Carpenter JP.
UIID-AD: 407
2014;62:143-155. doi: 10.1002/j.2161-0045.2014.00076.x.

A host of academic outcomes have been investigated as consequences of stereotype threat for women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), including attrition and decreased academic performance. However, the role of a potentially important precursor to these negative...

Precision in Career Motivation Assessment: Testing the Subjective Science Attitude Change Measures.

Smith JL, Deemer ED, Thoman DB, Chase JP.
UIID-AD: 406
2014;22:489-504. doi: 10.1177/1069072713498683.

The Subjective Science Attitude Change Measures (SSACM; Stake & Mares, 2001) represent a collection of useful self-report tools for assessing change in high school students' science attitudes as a function of a given motivational intervention. Despite the survey's utility,...

Toward a tripartite model of research motivation: Development and initial validation of the Research Motivation Scale.

Deemer EricD, Martens MatthewP, Buboltz WalterC.
UIID-AD: 1633
2010;18:292-309. doi: 10.1177/1069072710364794.

An instrument designed to measure a 3-factor model of research motivation was developed and psychometrically examined in the present research. Participants were 437 graduate students in biology, chemistry/biochemistry, physics/astronomy, and psychology. A principal components analysis supported the retention of...

Achievement goals as predictors of research self-efficacy.

Deemer EricD.
UIID-AD: 1629
2010;8:229-238.

Prior research has examined the relations of personality, contextual, and social cognitive factors as predictors of several important research training outcomes. The present study aimed to examine the relations of three types of achievement goals—mastery approach, mastery avoidance, and...
