Prior studies have focused on the instrument’s latent constructs, and thisanalysis examines how some of the constructs influence each other. Specific latent constructs ofgoal orientation, agency (students’ beliefs that their career in science or engineering can lead topositive effects on the world), future time perspective (FTP), and personality type were selectedfor secondary data analysis based on existing theory about relationships between motivation,goal setting

] without considering theimpact that other identities may have on the engineering experience, although some findings doindicate that gender and race are factors in attrition and persistence [23]–[31]. Outside of engineering, researchers have investigated the impacts of gender identity [32]–[36], racial identity [37]–[40], and even religious identity [41] on students' experiences inuniversity and future career goals. These studies recognize the multiple identities that studentsmust navigate the world with. Their experiences are complicated even further when they havemultiple marginalized identities (e.g., female, people of color, and LGBTQ in a predominatelyWhite, hetero, male setting) [5], [42]–[45].

identity over time, especially “for those early intheir academic career,” that are referred to as intellectual, institutional, and network strands ofidentity [14]. The intellectual strand of identity describes growing knowledge of engineering,which often includes hands-on skills. The institutional strand of identity describes recognition asan engineer by external entities, like academic departments or professional societies. Thenetwork strand of identity describes the development of a network of collaborators and mentors.Identity trajectory suggests that long-term group projects (section 2.1) are particularly salient toidentity development because they weave together all three strands of identity: long-termprojects are an opportunity for
