this transformation, there is cause towarrant a broader exploration of relevant constructs. First, there is concern that self-efficacy canbe considered as a deficit-based construct. Second, its creation in the American context may nottranslate directly to the African context. [4] compared results on the General Self-Efficacy Scaleacross 25 countries and found some variation in the internal consistency across countries, basedon the range of Cronbach’s alpha values, a reliability measure, seen. Most of these countrieswere located in the Global North, and no single African country was included in the study. It istherefore possible that the self-efficacy construct may not be as relevant to our students as thosein other contexts. Third, some
financial difficulty. Prior research has acknowledged that HC socializes students to conform to thestatus quo [21]. Within this largely middle-class, straight, White, able-bodied, and malediscipline, the status quo perpetuates gendered values (HC), such as masculinity,objectivity, and autonomy through messages embedded in institutional and instructionalways [32].HC in engineering Individuals process and respond to HC by recognizing it (awareness), processingit (emotions), deciding what they can do about it (self-efficacy), and acting (self-advocacy) [2], [4]–[7], [9], [11], [12]. Previous research characterized individuals’responses to HC into three categories: 1) minimal/no action, 2) negotiating self, and 3)changing the environment

Results indicate that students and teachers found lyric analysis andthe OUTKAST Imagination framework to be a useful and valuable tool, and that teachers aregenerally comfortable with, and seek opportunities for, teaching on race-related topics, but theyvary in their self

It specifically suggests thatenvironmental contextual elements combined with learning experiences impact self-efficacy andoutcome expectations to advance an individual’s interests and commitment decisions. The surveyitems were adopted from a previously tested model and study by Lent et al. [9] that examined theinterplay between interest, satisfaction and students' intentions regarding engineering majors.The pre-survey was given to students within their first month of taking the course and thepost-survey was given to students during their last month in the

A four-factor model was created because of this work, where the relationsbetween hidden curriculum awareness (factor 1), emotions (factor 2), self-efficacy (factor 3), andself-advocacy (factor 4) were explored across ~58 colleges of engineering and 984 engineeringfaculty and students in the U.S. From the validated instrument (UPHEME; Villanueva et al.,2020), Sellers & Villanueva (2021) analyzed a subset of strategies used by over one hundred andfifty-four BIPOCx individuals in engineering as they coped with the acquired HC. The authorsfound that advocacies taken by individuals, through self-advocacy (or their willingness to enact

They surveyed1,100 high school students and measured their intrinsic, identified, external, and amotivationaltendencies, along with their GPA and standardized test scores over two years. The results showedthat students who were intrinsically motivated or motivated by personal values and interestsoutperformed those who were motivated by external rewards or
