Importantly, contrastingpatterns between women’s gender typicality and feelings of being included by female and maleengineering peers, respectively, were also observed.IntroductionOver the last 20 years, women’s under-representation in engineering remains relativelyunchanged [1]. Thus, as they comprise the numerical minority in this highly male-dominatedfield, it is critical to examine possible factors that may lead to their persistence in engineering.Notably, perceived inclusion has been found to be related to women’s persistence in STEM
