Engineering Education, 2019 Defining and Assessing Systems Thinking in Diverse Engineering PopulationsEngineers are called to play an important role in addressing the complex problems of our globalsociety, such as climate change and health care. In order to adequately address these complexproblems, engineers must be able to identify and incorporate into their decision making relevantaspects of systems in which their work is contextualized, a skill often referred to as systemsthinking [1] - [3].Within engineering, research on systems thinking tends to emphasize the abilityto recognize potentially relevant constituent elements and parts of an engineering problem (e.g.,[4] – [6]) rather than how these
