The PITS combines five other validated instruments thatmeasure project ownership-emotion, project ownership-content, science identity, self-efficacy,scientific community values, and networking on a five-factor scale.

However, when faculty emphasized their availabilityand willingness to help students with questions and cultivated an atmosphere of mutual respect,all students experienced a greater sense of belonging [30].In a recent study of early career engineering students [31], students’ self-efficacy and belongingwere examined

Therefore, it is imperative to design such labsin the format that facilitates students’ success and self-efficacy. Students should have ampleability to interact with their peers and instructors, while being engaged in experiential learningwith sufficient hands-on learning experiences leading to a deeper understanding of engineeringconcepts. Well-designed online labs can also refresh students’ enthusiasm for engineering, aswell as increase the retention rate for engineering students [11].

The inconsistenciesof Guglielmino’s and other scales, as well as the cost implication of using some of them, servedas discouraging factors for their adoption in the current study.As illustrated, validity studies on SDL scales have often led to the creation of new scalesconsidered more consistent than the previous one.

Both formal peer mentoring and informal peer relationships between Scholars (andother STEM students) were key components to their developing STEM identities. At the sametime, this theoretical model also includes layers for individual traits (e.g., STEM self-efficacy)and social identities and theorizes “gaps” in STEM identities that may pose challenges to STEMstudent success.Individual OutcomesFor each campus, brief descriptions of findings related to the unique interventions each

This canhinder the student’s metacognitive regulation of their learning progress, lower their self-efficacy,and stifle their motivation.

In addition,students’ self-efficacy decreased over the first year of study, particularly for women students.However, both men and women experienced similar decreases in their value-related beliefs ofengineering [19].Importantly, researchers suggest that the potential impacts of the decrease in these expectanciesand value-related constructs on students
