A better understanding ofthe barriers that result in students dropping out of STEM fields is essential for increasingengagement and retention of STEM undergraduate students. In this regard, a growing body ofresearch demonstrates that psychosocial factors such as STEM self-efficacy, sense of belonging,intelligence beliefs, and grit are associated with STEM outcomes such as engagement andretention. In this review paper we examine how these key psychosocial variables (STEM self-efficacy, sense of belonging, intelligence beliefs, and grit) impact engagement and retention ofundergraduate STEM students.
